Year 2 of the Texas Round Up Pediatric Endoscopy Course with a focus on endoscopic polyp management in Dallas this past weekend was a huge success once again. It was great to reconnect with longtime colleagues and friends, along with the opportunity to instruct course attendees. Thank you for the invite, @david_troendle .

It can be hard to diagnose chronic #pancreatitis in children. doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.… Here, Faizan Ahmed, Maisam Abu-El-Haija @MaisamHaijaMD & team @CincyChildrens find the immune signaling protein TRANCE is elevated in plasma samples from pediatric patients with chronic pancreatitis compared to other participants and therefore may serve as a unique biomarker of the disease. @sohailzhusain
