New Trends and Advances in Non-variceal Gastrointestinal Bleeding—Series II

Dear Colleagues,

Non-variceal gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding remains a major problem in clinical practice, and the morbidity and mortality associated with this type of bleeding remain high. During the last few years, new guidelines have been published by different scientific societies and expert groups. These guidelines have been updated with new advances in diagnosis and instrumental or pharmacological treatment; however, they also point out a number of issues that require further investigation.

For this Special Issue, we seek original research papers focused on any of the aspects that require new insights and investigation. Specifically, we solicit papers focused on pre-endoscopic, endoscopic, and post-endoscopic management of patients with non-variceal GI bleeding. However, studies focused on the prevention of GI bleeding are also welcome as well as those focused on the long-term management of patients who have suffered from non-variceal upper, mid, or lower GI bleeding. Obscure gastrointestinal bleeding is also a challenge and studies on this type of bleeding will be especially welcome. Similarly, we are looking for studies that deal with artificial intelligence or artificial neural networks. Finally, new ideas on mechanisms of pathogenesis that can form the basis for new diagnostics or therapeutics approaches will also be especially welcome.
