Abstract
In this editorial we comment on the article by Wang et al, recently published on World Journal of Clinical Cases. Acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (ANVUGIB) represents a common and potentially serious gastroenterological emergency. Wang et al conducted a detailed study on the management of ANVUGIB in a high-volume center in the Shaanxi region, China. Analyzing data from over 530 patients provided a comprehensive overview of clinical, epidemiological, and treatment characteristics. Results highlighted a younger patient population compared to European studies, with a higher prevalence of gastric and duodenal ulcers as the leading cause of bleeding. Endoscopic treatment is currently the preferred therapeutic option, offering a variety of effective techniques. This study emphasizes the importance of implementing current guidelines in ANVUGIB management and highlights the crucial role of endoscopy in its management.
