Further Information
Publication History
Publication Date:
12 April 2005 (online)
Last year’s United European Gastroenterology Week (UEGW) assembled a fair number of excellent endoscopic abstracts, among them quite a few large and also randomized trials, most of which had not been presented at Digestive Disease Week previously. This appears to be a good sign for the further development of clinical research in this field in Europe. The most relevant abstracts, in the authors’ opinion, are reviewed in the following.
