    Abstract Background: Trastuzumab has had a major impact on the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive breast cancer patients. However, it is associated with cardiotoxicity, expressed as an asymptomatic decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and less often as clinical HF. The aim of this meta-analysis is to identify the association of conventional cardiovascular risk factors with the development of trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity (TIC).
    Methods: A literature search of PubMed was conducted to identify studies examining the association between cardiovascular risk factors and TIC. Data were extracted and pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated examining the odds of developing TIC for each of the risk factors.
    Results: A total of 35 studies were included in the analysis. Age (OR:0.7; 95%CI 0.318-1.09; P= 0.0004), hypertension (OR:0.69; 95%CI 0.26-1.12; P = 0.001), smoking(OR:0.35; 95%CI 0.01- 0.69; P = 0.038), diabetes mellitus (OR:0.44; 95%CI 0.24- 0.68; P = 0.0001) and family history of CAD (OR:5.51, 95%CI 1.76-17.25; P< 0.00001)were significantly associated with the development of cardiotoxicity. Known history of CAD (OR: 3.72; 95%CI 2.11-6.57; P = 0.0005) was also associated with the development of TIC.
    Conclusion(s): Identifying women at risk for TIC have several important potential applications. Clinicians may decide to assess LVEF more frequently in patients at highest risk for TIC in order to detect LV systolic dysfunction earlier. Additionally, this could help identify patients who would benefit most from prophylactic therapy for preventing TIC.

    Abstract A 78-year-old man attended for outpatient capsule endoscopy, to investigate a recent history of unexplained small bowel bleeding. His previous medical history included an abdominal aortic aneurysm repair 6 years ago. Soon after capsule ingestion, he experienced sudden onset abdominal pain and collapsed on hospital grounds. He was rapidly transferred to the emergency department as he was haemodynamically unstable, and a significant per rectum (PR) bleed was found on examination. The patient was quickly stabilised following fluid resuscitation. CT angiography was performed which did not show active bleeding. However, use of the real-time capsule viewer indicated a profuse active jejunal bleed originating from the aortic graft, suggestive of an aortoenteric fistula. The patient underwent emergency endovascular cuff placement, and subsequent endovascular abdominal aortic stent grafting, to good effect.

    Abstract Background and aims: Capsule endoscopy (CE) is a visual modality; hence, diagnosis relies on image quality. We studied the contribution of image parameters to visualization quality and their effect on diagnostic certainty of small bowel (SB) lesions.
    Methods: Five clear CE images of common SB pathology - two vascular lesions, two inflammatory, one polyp - were processed for three image parameters to simulate poor SB conditions: opacity (color-matched to luminal content; 10-90%, 10% increments); blurriness (radius 1-10 pixels; one pixel increments); and contrast (-50-50%; 10% increments). Nine expert readers evaluated whether images were adequate for diagnosis. Points where perception of image quality changed significantly were determined for each parameter. Three further sets of SBCE images (vascular, inflammatory, and neoplastic lesions; nine images/set) were processed for four points/parameters. Twenty experienced/expert CE readers reviewed these images.
    Results: The negative effects of opacity in diagnostic certainty were mostly evident in images of neoplasia; images of vascular and inflammatory lesions were less affected. Similar results were observed with increasing blur radius, simulating movement, and poor focus. The proportions of readers finding vascular and inflammatory images adequate for diagnosis did not drop significantly at wider blur radii, while images of neoplasia were quickly deemed inadequate. Low contrast had a greater negative effect than high, most consistently in neoplastic lesions.
    Conclusion: Poor visualization quality in all parameters affected mostly neoplastic lesions. Software to increase contrast and sharpen images can improve visualization quality; smart frame rate adaptation could improve the number of high-quality frames obtained. Thoroughness in SB cleansing is most important when there is a suspicion of neoplasia.

    Abstract Introduction: Software tools have been developed as capsule endoscopy (CE) reading aids. The suspected blood indicator (SBI) tags possible areas of haemorrhage in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. This meta-analysis aims to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of SBI in CE. Areas covered: A systematic literature search was conducted for studies on the use of SBI in CE. Sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) of SBI in diagnosing GI bleeding was evaluated. 2040 patients from 16 studies underwent 2049 CE examinations. The overall sensitivity of SBI for bleeding or potentially bleeding lesions was 0.553, specificity 0.578, DOR 12.354. The sensitivity of SBI for active bleeding was 0.988, specificity 0.646, DOR 229.89. Expert commentary: Currently, SBI has limited validity in CE reading. However, in active GI bleeding, it has good sensitivity, supporting its use in the acute setting.
