Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty is a minimally invasive weight loss procedure that uses an endoscopic suturing(stitching) device to reduce the stomach's size and volume by about 70%.... For the right candidate, ESG may be a less invasive alternative to laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Both procedures reduce the stomach size, but [laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy] does so by removing part of the stomach, while ESG uses stitches to bring folds of the stomach together like an accordion(similar to sewing a dart to tailor clothing). 5, record 1, English, - endoscopic%20sleeve%20gastroplasty

Employees will justify their actions in committing ESG(environmental, social and governance) fraud the same way they do when committing financial fraud. "No one gets hurt;" "it's not a big deal;" and "it's for the greater good of the company" are common rationales. And with remuneration increasingly linked to ESG performance, personal hardship is a potential fraud risk factor at every level of an organization. 2, record 2, English, - potential%20fraud%20risk%20factor
