CM approves land allocation to forest dept to accelerate ERCP project
1 2 Jaipur: Chief minister Bhajan Lal Sharma approved allocation of 1,102.72 hectares of land to the forest department under the forest land diversion process, aiming to fast-track the Ramjal Setu Link Project (RSLP), also known as the Eastern Rajasthan Canal Project (ERCP). The approval covers four separate proposals involving the diversion of forest land impacted by key components of the RSLP. These include the under-construction Ramgarh and Mahlpur barrages, along with the Navnera-Galwa-Bisalpur-Isarda Link Project. According to officials, the approved land includes 427.59 hectares in Kishanganj tehsil, 284.09 hectares in Chhabra tehsil, and 362.95 hectares in Chhipabarod tehsil—all located in Baran district. Additionally, 28.08 hectares of non-forest land from the Reserved Land Fund in Alwar district will be allocated to the Forest Department free of cost. Officials described the move as a critical step toward accelerating the implementation of the ERCP, a flagship water infrastructure project designed to meet the irrigation and drinking water needs of eastern Rajasthan. tnn Get the latest lifestyle updates on Times of India, along with Brother's Day wishes , messages and quotes !

Issues Become Complex When States Are Governed By Different Parties: CR Patil On Water-Sharing Disputes
Last Updated: When asked about the Cauvery water dispute, Patil replied that the matter is still ongoing. Jal Shakti Minister CR Patil mentioned that inter-state water disputes often arise because political leaders and party figures push for allocations beyond their entitlement. 'When states are governed by different parties, the issue becomes more complex. Political leaders often demand more water than they are authorised to, which eventually creates an environment that, if any commitment is made for less than that, then the people there become against it," he said. Patil was speaking at the Powering Bharat Summit 2025, organised by Network18 in collaboration with Moneycontrol, News18 India, and CNBC Awaaz. He noted that while the government has no authority over the positions taken by political parties, it is focusing on key development projects under the Modi government's jurisdiction, such as the Ken-Betwa project, expected to be completed by 2030, and the Parvati-Kalisindh-Chambal Eastern Rajasthan Canal Project (PKC-ERCP). According to the Ministry of Jal Shakti, the ERCP link project aims to provide drinking and industrial water to 13 districts of eastern Rajasthan, Malwa, and Chambal regions of Madhya Pradesh. An MoU was signed by the two states for this project last year. Meanwhile, the Ken-Betwa Link Project, with a cost of over 44,000 crore rupees, is expected to benefit millions in rural areas of Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh.

No Benefit to ERCP With Sphincterotomy in Pancreas Divisum
SAN DIEGO — In treating pancreas divisum, the common use of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with minor papilla endoscopic sphincterotomy showed no significant benefit over a sham procedure, suggesting that patients can be spared the intervention, which can carry risks of its own. 'This is a topic that has been debated for decades,' said first author Gregory A. Coté, MD, Division Head, professor of medicine, Division of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, Oregon Health & Science University, in Portland, Oregon. 'Many doctors believe the procedure helps and offer it because we have limited options to help our patients, whereas others believe the procedure is harmful and doesn't help,' he explained in a press briefing for the late-breaking study, presented at Digestive Disease Week (DDW) 2025. The study's findings supported the latter argument. 'Patients who underwent ERCP with sphincterotomy were just as likely as those who did not have this procedure to develop acute pancreatitis again,' Coté reported. While clinical guidelines currently recommend ERCP as treatment for pancreas divisum, 'these guidelines are likely to change based on this study,' he said. Pancreas divisum, occurring in about 7%-10% of people, is an anatomic variation that can represent an obstructive risk factor for acute recurrent pancreatitis. The common use of ERCP with minor papilla endoscopic sphincterotomy to treat the condition is based on prior retrospective studies showing that in patients who did develop acute pancreatitis, up to 70% with the treatment never developed acute pancreatitis again. However, there have been no studies comparing the use of the treatment with a control group. Coté and colleagues conducted the multicenter SHARP trial, in which 148 patients with pancreas divisum were enrolled between September 2018 and August 2024 and randomized to receive either ERCP with minor papilla endoscopic sphincterotomy (n = 75) or a sham treatment (n = 73). The patients, who had a median age of 51 years, had a median of 3 acute pancreatitis episodes prior to randomization. With a median follow-up of 33.5 months (range, 6-48 months), 34.7% of patients in the ERCP arm experienced an acute pancreatitis incident compared with 43.8% in the sham arm, for a hazard ratio of 0.83 after adjusting for duct size and the number of episodes, which was not a statistically significant difference ( P = .27). A subgroup analysis further showed no indication of a treatment effect based on factors including age, diabetes status, sex, alcohol or tobacco use, or other factors. 'Compared with a sham ERCP group, we found that minor papillotomy did not reduce the risk of acute pancreatitis, incident chronic pancreatitis, endocrine pancreatic insufficiency or diabetes, or pancreas-related pain events,' Coté said. The findings are particularly important because the treatment itself is associated with some risks, he added. 'Ironically, the problem with this procedure is that it can cause acute pancreatitis in 10%-20% of patients and may instigate other issues later,' such as the development of scarring of the pancreas related to incisions in the procedure. 'No one wants to offer an expensive procedure that has its own risks if it doesn't help,' Coté said. Based on the findings, 'pancreas divisum anatomy should no longer be considered an indication for ERCP, even for idiopathic acute pancreatitis,' he concluded.

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) Market Analysis, 2025-2030 - Gallstone Prevalence Expected to Surge, Boosting ERCP Adoption
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography Market Dublin, Jan. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis by Product, Procedure Type, End-use, and Region, 2025-2030" report has been added to global endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography market size was estimated at USD 2.17 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 8.26% from 2025 to 2030. The growth of the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) market is primarily driven by the rising incidence of pancreatic and biliary diseases, such as gallstones, pancreatitis, and bile duct obstructions. As the population ages and lifestyles change, these conditions are becoming more prevalent, increasing the demand for ERCP procedures. A study published in Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology in February 2024 estimates a global gallstone prevalence of 6%, with higher rates in females and in South America. The incidence of gallstones is expected to rise sharply over the forecast period, further fueling ERCP demand. Advancements in endoscopic technology have improved ERCP safety and efficacy. For example, in January 2023, Advantech introduced the MIO-5377R single-board computer, designed to enhance endoscopic performance, reliability, and functionality. Innovations such as high-definition imaging, improved endoscope maneuverability, and advanced therapeutic accessories have made ERCP a more precise and effective diagnostic and treatment tool, attracting both healthcare providers and patients. The growing adoption of minimally invasive surgical techniques is also driving ERCP demand. According to the American Cancer Society's annual report (January 2024), an estimated 41,630 new liver cancer cases will be diagnosed in the U.S. Liver cancer is more prevalent in Southeast Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, where it is the most common cancer type, with over 800,000 new cases diagnosed globally each year. It is also a leading cause of cancer-related deaths, claiming over 700,000 lives annually. The high burden of cholangiocarcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma is expected to further boost ERCP adoption for early cancer detection. Increased awareness of the benefits of early diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic and biliary diseases has heightened demand for minimally invasive procedures. In October 2023, the Biliary Atresia Awareness Committee launched a campaign under the auspices of Gauteng Provincial Solid Organ Transplant Division and the University of the Witwatersrand at Charlotte Maxeke Academic Hospital. The initiative aimed to raise awareness and support for children with biliary atresia, a rare and life-threatening liver disease affecting infants. It focused on educating diverse populations, providing resources to affected families, advancing diagnostic research, and fostering global medical collaboration. An aging population is another key driver of market growth. As chronic conditions such as coagulopathy and anemia become more common in older adults, the demand for ERCP and related procedures, including those requiring blood transfusions, is rising. Currently, over 40 million people in the U.S. are aged 65 or older, a number expected to double by 2050. Japan, home to the world's largest geriatric population, presents significant growth opportunities. According to the WHO, the geriatric population is projected to reach 22% globally by 2050. Healthcare organizations are increasingly investing in research and partnerships to drive innovation. A Optica Publishing Group study (July 2022) highlighted the development of a photoacoustic imaging endoscope probe, which can be inserted into a medical needle as small as 0.6 mm in diameter. Researchers also suggested AI could accelerate imaging procedures. Strategic initiatives by market players, including mergers, acquisitions, and product launches, are expected to further propel growth. For instance, in April 2022, Olympus partnered with EndoClot Plus, a company specializing in hemostasis technologies. EndoClot PHS, a nonthermal, nontraumatic solution for gastrointestinal bleeding, is a key product in its portfolio. This partnership aims to improve accessibility to EndoClot PHS, enabling gastroenterologists to stop bleeding quickly and effectively during procedures. Why should you buy this report?
