Endoscopic Ultrasound for the Management of Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors: Diagnosis, Treatment, and Future Perspectives.

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) are increasingly diagnosed, reflecting greater clinical awareness, improved imaging, and revised classification. This review summarizes evidence on epidemiology, diagnostic workup, and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided management of PanNETs, encompassing diagnostic evaluation, tissue acquisition, and therapeutic interventions. EUS provides the highest di...

Present state and future of screening for atrial fibrillation: a state-of-the-art review.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia and is a leading cause of stroke and heart failure yet often remains undiagnosed. Screening has been proposed to identify asymptomatic AF and initiate preventive treatment, but evidence for reduction in hard clinical endpoints such as stroke and heart failure remains inconclusive. In this state-of-the-art review, we critically examine major AF...
