| 1 | Systematic review of surgical resection vs radiofrequency ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents one of the most common neoplasms worldwide. Surgical resection and local ablative therapies represent the most frequent first lines therapies adopted when liver transplantation can not be offered or is not immediately accessible. Hepatic resection (HR) is currently considered the most curative strategy, but in the last decade local ablative therapies have started to obtain satisfactory results in term of efficacy and, of them, radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is considered the reference standard. An extensive literature review, from the year 2000, was performed, focusing on results coming from studies that directly compared HR and RFA. Qualities of the studies, characteristics of patients included, and patient survival and recurrence rates were analyzed. Except for three randomized controlled trials (RCT), most studies are affected by uncertain methodological approaches since surgical and ablated patients represent different populations as regards clinical and tumor features that are known to affect prognosis. Unfortunately, even the available RCTs report conflicting results. Until further evidences become available, it seems reasonable to offer RFA to very small HCC (< 2 cm) with no technical contraindications, since in this instance complete necrosis is most likely to be achieved. In larger nodules, namely > 2 cm and especially if > 3 cm, and/or in tumor locations in which ablation is not expected to be effective or safe, surgical removal is to be preferred. | Alessandro Cucchetti Fabio Piscaglia Matteo Cescon Giorgio Ercolani Antonio Daniele Pinna | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,26: | 40 |

| 3 | Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: Evolving paradigms显示文摘In the last years new evidence has accumulated on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)challenging the paradigms that had been holding the scene over the previous 30 years.NAFLD has such an epidemic prevalence as to make it impossible to screen general population looking for NAFLD cases.Conversely,focusing on those cohorts of individuals exposed to the highest risk of NAFLD could be a more rational approach.NAFLD,which can be diagnosed with either non-invasive strategies or through liver biopsy,is a pathogenically complex and clinically heterogeneous disease.The existence of metabolic as opposed to genetic-associated disease,notably including'lean NAFLD'has recently been recognized.Moreover,NAFLD is a systemic condition,featuring metabolic,cardiovascular and(hepatic/extrahepatic)cancer risk.Among the clinico-laboratory features of NAFLD we discuss hyperuricemia,insulin resistance,atherosclerosis,gallstones,psoriasis and selected endocrine derangements.NAFLD is a precursor of type 2 diabetes(T2D)and metabolic syndrome and progressive liver disease develops in T2D patients in whom the course of disease is worsened by NAFLD.Finally,lifestyle changes and drug treatment options to be implemented in the individual patient are also critically discussed.In conclusion,this review emphasizes the new concepts on clinical and pathogenic heterogeneity of NAFLD,a systemic disorder with a multifactorial pathogenesis and protean clinical manifestations.It is highly prevalent in certain cohorts of individuals who are thus potentially amenable to selective screening strategies,intensive follow-up schedules for early identification of liver-related and extrahepatic complications and in whom earlier and more aggressive treatment schedules should be carried out whenever possible. | Amedeo Lonardo Fabio Nascimbeni Mauro Maurantonio Alessandra Marrazzo Luca Rinaldi Luigi Elio Adinolfi | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,36: | 33 |
| 4 | Genetic and epigenetic biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of colorectal cancer显示文摘Colorectal cancer(CRC)is one of the most common cancer worldwide and results from the accumulation of mutations and epimutations in colonic mucosa cells ultimately leading to cell proliferation and metastasis.Unfortunately,CRC prognosis is still poor and the search of novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers is highly desired to prevent CRC-related deaths.The present article aims to summarize the most recent findings concerning the use of either genetic or epigenetic(mainly related to DNA methylation)biomarkers for CRC diagnosis,prognosis,and response to treatment.Recent large-scale DNA methylation studies suggest that CRC can be divided into several subtypes according to the frequency of DNA methylation and those of mutations in key CRC genes,and that this is reflected by different prognostic outcomes.Increasing evidence suggests that the analysis of DNA methylation in blood or fecal specimens could represent a valuable non-invasive diagnostic tool for CRC.Moreover,a broad spectrum of studies indicates that the inter-individual response to chemotherapeutic treatments depends on both epigenetic modifications and genetic mutations occurring in colorectal cancer cells,thereby opening the way for a personalized medicine.Overall,combining genetic and epigenetic data might represent the most promising tool for a proper diagnostic,prognostic and therapeutic approach. | Fabio Coppedè Angela Lopomo Roberto Spisni Lucia Migliore | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,4: | 29 |

| 6 | Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for gastric cancer. Is it a must or a fake?显示文摘AIM To investigate the neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC) effect on the survival of patients with proper stomach cancer submitted to D2 gastrectomy.METHODS We proceeded to a review of the literature with Pub Med, Embase, ASCO and ESMO meeting abstracts as well as computerized use of the Cochrane Library for randomized controlled trials(RCTs) comparing NAC followed by surgery(NAC + S) with surgery alone(SA) for gastric cancer(GC). The primary outcome was the overall survival rate. Secondary outcomes were the site of the primary tumor, extension of node dissection according to Japanese Gastric Cancer Association(JGCA) performed in both arms, disease-specific(DSS) and disease-free survival(DFS) rates, clinical and pathological response rates and resectability rates after perioperative treatment. RESULTS We identified a total of 16 randomized controlled trials comparing NAC + S(n = 1089) with SA(n = 973) published in the period from January 1993-March 2017. Only 6 of these studies were well-designed, structured trials in which the type of lymph node(LN) dissection performed or at least suggested in the trial protocol was reported. Two out of three of the RCTs with D2 lymphadenectomy performed in almost all cases failed to show survival benefit in the NAC arm. Inthe third RCT, the survival rate was not even reported, and the primary end points were the clinical outcomes of surgery with and without NAC. In the remaining three RCTs, D2 lymph node dissection was performed in less than 50% of cases or only recommended in the 'Study Treatment' protocol without any description in the results of the procedure really perfomed. In one of the two studies, the benefit of NAC was evident only for esophagogastric junction(EGJ) cancers. In the second study, there was no overall survival benefit of NAC. In the last trial, which documented a survival benefit for the NAC arm, the chemotherapy effect was mostly evident for EGJ cancer, and more than one-fourth of patients did not have a proper stomach cancer. Additionally, several patients did not receive resectional surgery. Furthermore, the survival rates of international reference centers that provide adequate surgery for homogeneous stomach cancer patients' populations are even higher than the survival rates reported after NAC followed by incomplete surgery.CONCLUSION NAC for GC has been rapidly introduced in international western guidelines without an evidence-based medicinerelated demonstration of its efficacy for a homogeneous population of patients with only stomach tumors submitted to adequate surgery following JGCA guidelines with extended(D2) LN dissection. Additional larger sample-size multicentre RCTs comparing the newer NAC regimens including molecular therapies followed by adequate extended surgery with surgery alone are needed. | Rossella Reddavid Silvia Sofia Paolo Chiaro Fabio Colli Renza Trapani Laura Esposito Mario Solej Maurizio Degiuli | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,2: | 25 |
| 7 | MicroRNAs as possible biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of hepatitis b- and c-related-hepatocellularcarcinoma显示文摘Aim of the present review is to summarize the current knowledge about the potential relationship between mi RNAs and hepatitis B virus(HBV)-hepatitis C virus(HCV) related liver diseases. A systematic computerbased search of published articles, according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analysis Statement, was performed to identify relevant studies on usefulness of serum/plasma/urine mi RNAs, as noninvasive biomarkers for early detection of HBV and HCV-induced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) development, as well as for its prognostic evaluation. The used Medical Subject Headings terms and keywords were: 'HBV', 'HCV', 'hepatocellular carcinoma', 'micro RNAs', 'mi RNAs', 'diagnosis', 'prognosis', 'therapy', 'treatment'. Some serum/plasma mi RNAs, including mi R-21, mi R-122, mi-125a/b, mi R-199a/b, mi R-221, mi R-222, mi R-223, mi R-224 might serve as biomarkers for early diagnosis/prognosis of HCC, but, to date, not definitive results or well-defined panels of mi RNAs have been obtained. More well-designed studies, focusing on populations of different geographical areas and involving larger series of patients, should be carried out to improve our knowledge on the potential role of mi RNAs for HCC early detection and prognosis. | Sirio Fiorino Maria Letizia Bacchi-Reggiani Michela Visani Giorgia Acquaviva Adele Fornelli Michele Masetti Andrea Tura Fabio Grizzi Matteo Zanello Laura Mastrangelo Raffaele Lombardi Luca Di Tommaso Arrigo Bondi Sergio Sabbatani Andrea Domanico Carlo Fabbri Paolo Leandri Annalisa Pession Elio Jovine Dario de Biase | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,15: | 25 |
| 8 | Risk factors associated with pancreatic fistula after distal pancreatectomy, which technique of pancreatic stump closure is more beneficial?显示文摘AIM: To identify risk factors related to pancreatic fistula in patients undergoing distal pancreatectomy (DP) and to determine the effectiveness of using a stapled and a sutured closed of pancreatic stump. METHODS: Sixty-four patients underwent DP during a 10-year period. Information regarding diagnosis, operative details, and perioperative morbidity or mortality was collected. Eight risk factors were examined. RESULTS: Indications for DP included primary pancreatic disease (n = 38, 59%) and non-pancreatic malignancy (n = 26, 41%). Postoperative mortality and morbidity rates were 1.5% and 37% respectively; one patient died due to sepsis and two patients required a reoperation due to postoperative bleeding. Pancreatic fistula was developed in 14 patients (22%); 4 of fistulas were classified as Grade A, 9 as Grade B and only 1 as Grade C. Incidence of pancreatic fistula rate was significantly associated with four risk factors: pathology, use of prophylactic octreotide therapy, concomitant splenectomy, and texture of pancreatic parenchyma. The role that technique (either stapler or suture) of pancreatic stump closure plays in the development of pancreatic leak remains unclear. CONCLUSION: The pancreatic fistula rate after DP is 22%. This is reduced for patients with non-pancreatic malignancy, fibrotic pancreatic tissue, postoperative prophylactic octreotide therapy and concomitant splenectomy. | Marco Pericoli Ridolfini Sergio Alfieri Stavros Gourgiotis Dario Di Miceli Fabio Rotondi Giuseppe Quero Roberta Manghi Giovanni Battista Doglietto | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,38: | 24 |

| 10 | H pylori infection and systemic antibodies to CagA and heat shock protein 60 in patients with coronary heart disease显示文摘AIM: To determine the overall prevalence of H pylori and CagA positive H pylori infection and the prevalence of other bacterial and viral causes of chronic infection in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), and the potential role of anti-heat-shock protein 60 (Hsp60) anti- body response to these proteins in increasing the risk of CHD development. METHODS: Eighty patients with CHD and 160 controls were employed. We also compared the levels of anti- heat-shock protein 60 (Hsp60) antibodies in the two groups. The H pylori infection and the CagA status were determined serologically, using commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), and a Western blotting method developed in our laboratory. Systemic antibodies to Hsp60 were determined by a sandwich ELISA, using a polyclonal antibody to Hsp60 to sensitise polystyrene plates and a commercially available human Hsp60 as an antigen. RESULTS: The overall prevalence of H pylori infec- tion was 78.7% (n = 63) in patients and 76.2% (n = 122) in controls (P = 0.07). Patients infected by CagA- positive (CagA+) H pylori strains were 71.4% (n = 45) vs 52.4% of infected controls (P = 0.030, OR = 2.27). Sys-temic levels of IgG to Hsp60 were increased in H pylori- negative patients compared with uninfected controls (P < 0.001) and CagA-positive infected patients compared with CagA-positive infected controls (P = 0.007). CONCLUSION: CagA positive H pylori infection may concur to the development of CHD; high levels of anti- Hsp60 antibodies may constitute a marker and/or a con- comitant pathogenic factor of the disease. | Cristina Lenzi Alberto Palazzuoli Nicola Giordano Giuliano Alegente Catia Gonnelli Maria Stella Campagna Annalisa Santucci Michele Sozzi Panagiotis Papakostas Fabio Rollo Ranuccio Nuti Natale Figura | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,48: | 23 |
| 11 | Combined chemo-radiotherapy in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinomas显示文摘AIM:To provide efficacy and safety data about the combined use of radiotherapy and chemo-radiotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC).METHODS:We reviewed data of 40 patients with locally advanced NPC treated with induction chemotherapy followed by concomitant chemo-radiotherapy(CCRT)(22/40 patients)or CCRT alone(18/40)from March 2006 to March 2012.Patients underwent fiberoscopy with biopsy of the primitive tumor,and computed tomography scan of head,neck,chest and abdomen with and without contrast.Cisplatin was used both as induction and as concomitant chemotherapy,while 3D conformal radiation therapy was delivered to the nasopharynx and relevant anatomic regions(total dose,70 Gy).The treatment was performed using 6 MV photons of the linear accelerator administered in 2 Gy daily fraction for five days weekly.This retrospective analysis was approved by the review boards of the participating institutions.Patients gave their consent to treatment and to anonymous analysis of clinical data.RESULTS:Thirty-three patients were males and 7 were females.Median follow-up time was 58 mo(range,1-92 mo).In the sub-group of twenty patients with a follow-up time longer than 36 mo,the 3-year survival and disease free survival rates were 85%and 75%,respectively.Overall response rate both in patients treated with induction chemotherapy followed by CCRT and in those treated with CCRT alone was 100%.Grade 3 neutropenia was the most frequent acute side-effect and it occurred in 20 patients.Grade 2 mucositis was seen in 29 patients,while grade 2 xerostomia was seen in 30 patients.Overall toxicity was manageable and it did not cause any significant treatment delay.In the whole sample population,long term toxicity included grade 2 xerostomia in 22 patients,grade 1 dysgeusia in 17 patients and grade 1 subcutaneous fibrosis in 30 patients.CONCLUSION:Both CCRT and induction chemotherapy followed by CCRT showed excellent activity in locally advanced NPC.The role of adjuvant chemotherapy remains to be defined. | Francesco Perri Giuseppina Della Vittoria Scarpati Carlo Buonerba Giuseppe Di Lorenzo Francesco Longo Paolo Muto Concetta Schiavone Fabio Sandomenico Francesco Caponigro | 2013 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2013,4,2: | 22 |
| 12 | 基于时间序列SAR影像分析方法的三峡大坝稳定性监测显示文摘本文提出了结合永久散射体和准永久散射体干涉测量技术的时间序列合成孔径雷达(SAR)影像几何信息提取方案,利用2003~2008年获取的40景SAR影像量测并分析了三峡大坝运行时的稳定性问题及其周边区域的形变规律.我们发现在数据获取期间,三峡大坝左段的时效沉降基本停止,大坝形变受水位的影响较大,季节性变化也有一定体现.该实验结果和已发表的该坝段形变监测结果十分吻合.在数据处理结果中我们还在大坝上游秭归县附近堤坝发现一处形变异常.研究结果表明了时间序列SAR影像信息提取技术在大坝稳定性监测及坝区形变参数获取中的应用潜力. | 王腾 Daniele PERISSIN Fabio ROCCA 廖明生 | 2011 | 中国科学:地球科学2011,41,1: | 21 |
| 13 | Three Gorges Dam stability monitoring with time-series InSAR image analysis显示文摘In this paper,we carried out a combination of permanent scatterer and quasi permanent scatterer time-series InSAR image analyses to extract geometric information over the area of the Three Gorges Dam.For the first time,we measured and analyzed the deformation of the Three Gorges Dam and its surrounding area using 40 SAR images acquired from 2003 to 2008.Our results indicate that the temporal deformation of the left part of the dam has ceased and that the deformation of the dam was influenced by the changing level of the Yangtze River.Seasonal deformation due to varying temperature is also observed.The obtained results agree well with the published results of the Three Gorges Dam deformation obtained by employing conventional survey methods.We also found that there is an area of abnormal subsidence near Zigui County.This paper demonstrates the potential of time-series InSAR image analysis in the monitoring of dam stability and measurement of subsidence. | WANG Teng Daniele PERISSIN Fabio ROCCA LIAO Ming-Sheng | 2011 | Science China Earth Sciences2011,54,5: | 20 |
| 14 | Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio in the setting of liver transplantation for hepatocellular cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis显示文摘AIM To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis on platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR) as a risk factor for post-transplant hepatocellular cancer(HCC) recurrence. METHODS A systematic literature search was performed using PubM ed. Participants of any age and sex, who underwent liver transplantation for HCC were considered following these criteria:(1) studies comparing pre-transplant low vs high PLR values;(2) studies reporting post-transplant recurrence rates; and(3) if more than one study was reported by the same institute, only the most recent was included. The primary outcome measure was set for HCC recurrence after transplantation. RESULTS A total of 5 articles, published between 2014 and 2017, fulfilled the selection criteria. As for the quality of the reported studies, all the investigated articles presented an overall high quality. A total of 899 cases were investigated: 718 cases(80.0%) were males. Three studies coming from European countries and one from Japan presented HCV as the main cause of cirrhosis. On the opposite, one Chinese study presented a greater incidence of HBV-related cirrhotic cases. In all the studies apart one, the PLR cut-off value of 150 was reported. At meta-analysis, high PLR value was associated with a significant increase in recurrence after transplantation(OR = 3.33; 95%CI: 1.78-6.25; P < 0.001). A moderate heterogeneity was observed among the identified studies according to the Higgins I^2 statistic value.CONCLUSION Pre-transplant high PLR values are connected with an increased risk of post-operative recurrence of hepatocellular cancer. More studies are needed for better clarify the biological mechanisms of this results. | Quirino Lai Fabio Melandro Zoe Larghi Laureiro Francesco Giovanardi Stefano Ginanni Corradini Flaminia Ferri Redan Hassan Massimo Rossi Gianluca Mennini | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,15: | 19 |
| 15 | Operative link for gastritis assessment vs operative link on intestinal metaplasia assessment显示文摘AIM:To compare the reliability of gastritis staging sys-tems in ranking gastritis-associated cancer risk in a large series of consecutive patients.METHODS:Gastric mucosal atrophy is the precancer-ous condition in which intestinal-type gastric cancer(GC)most frequently develops.The operative link for gas-tritis assessment(OLGA)staging system ranks the GC risk according to both the topography and the severity of gastric atrophy(as assessed histologically on the ba-sis of the Sydney protocol for gastric mucosal biopsy).Both cross-sectional and long-term follow-up trials have consistently associated OLGA stages Ⅲ-Ⅳ with a higher risk of GC.A recently-proposed modification of the OLGA staging system(OLGIM)basically incorporates the OLGA frame,but replaces the atrophy score with an assessment of intestinal metaplasia(IM)alone.A series of 4552 consecutive biopsy sets(2007-2009)was re-trieved and reassessed according to both the OLGA and the OLGIM staging systems.A set of at least 5 biopsy samples was available for all the cases considered.RESULTS:In 4460 of 4552 cases(98.0%),both the high-risk stages(Ⅲ + Ⅳ)and the low-risk stages(0 +Ⅰ + Ⅱ)were assessed applying the OLGA and OL-GIM criteria.Among the 243 OLGA high-risk stages,14(5.8%)were down-staged to a low risk using OLGIM.The 67(1.5%)incidentally-found neoplastic lesions(intraepithelial or invasive)were consistently associated with high-risk stages,as assessed by both OLGA and OLGIM(P < 0.001 for both).Two of 34 intestinal-type GCs coexisting with a high-risk OLGA stage(stage Ⅲ)were associated with a low-risk OLGIM stage(stage Ⅱ).CONCLUSION:Gastritis staging systems(both OLGA and OLGIM)convey prognostically important informa-tion on the gastritis-associated cancer risk.Because of its clinical impact,the stage of gastritis should be included as a conclusive message in the gastritis histol-ogy report.Since it focuses on IM alone,OLGIM staging is less sensitive than OLGA staging in the identif ication of patients at high risk of gastric cancer. | Massimo Rugge Matteo Fassan Marco Pizzi Fabio Farinati Giacomo Carlo Sturniolo Mario Plebani David Y Graham | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,41: | 19 |
| 16 | challenges of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is an aggressive malignancy,resulting as the third cause of death by cancer each year. The management of patients with HCC is complex,as both the tumour stage and any underlying liver disease must be considered conjointly. Although surveillance by imaging,clinical and biochemical parameters is routinely performed,a lot of patients suffering from cirrhosis have an advanced stage HCC at the first diagnosis. Advanced stage HCC includes heterogeneous groups of patients with different clinical condition and radiological features and sorafenib is the only approved treatment according to Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer. Since the introduction of sorafenib in clinical practice,several phase Ⅲ clinical trials have failed to demonstrate any superiority over sorafenib in the frontline setting. Locoregional therapies have also been tested as first line treatment,but their role in advanced HCC is still matter of debate. No single agent or combination therapies have been shown to impact outcomes after sorafenib failure. Therefore this review will focus on the range of experimental therapeutics for patients with advanced HCC and highlights the successes and failures of these treatments as well as areas for future development. Specifics such as dose limiting toxicity and safety profile in patients with liver dysfunction related to the underlying chronic liver disease should be considered when developing therapies in HCC. Finally,robust validated and reproducible surrogate end-points as well as predictive biomarkers should be defined in future randomized trials. | Stefano Colagrande Andrea L Inghilesi Sami Aburas Gian G Taliani Cosimo Nardi Fabio Marra | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,34: | 19 |
| 17 | Human bocavirus in children hospitalized for acute respiratory tract infection in Rome显示文摘Background The role of human bocavirus (HBoV) as a respiratory pathogen has not been fulfilled yet.We aimed to describe clinical and serological characteristics of children with HBoV hospitalized for acute respiratory tract infection and to evaluate whether differences occur between HBoV alone and in co-infection.Methods We retrospectively reviewed data from 60 children (median age of 6.2 months,range 0.6-70.9) hospitalized for acute respiratory symptoms,with HBoV detected from a respiratory sample,using a reverse transcriptase-PCR for 14 respiratory viruses (including respiratory syncytial virus (RSV),influenza virus A and B,human coronavirus OC43,229E,NL-63 and HUK1,adenovirus,rhinovirus,parainfluenza virus 1-3,and human metapneumovirus).Results HBoV was detected alone in 29 (48.3%) patients,while in co-infection with other viruses in 31 patients (51.7%),with a peak between December and January.Among the 60 patients,34 were bronchiolitis,19 wheezing,3 pneumonia,2 upper respiratory tract infection,and 2 whooping cough.Seven children (11.6%) required admission to the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) for respiratory failure.No differences was observed in age,family history for atopy and/or asthma,clinical presentations,chest X-ray,or laboratory findings in children with HBoV alone vs.multiple viral detection.RSV was the most frequently co-detected virus (61.3%).When compared with HBoV detection alone,the co-detection of RSV and HBoV was associated with male sex (P=0.013),younger age (P=0.01),and lower blood neutrophil count (P=0.032).Conclusions HBoV can be detected alone and in co-infection respiratory samples of children with an acute respiratory tract infection.A cause-effect relationship between HBoV and respiratory infection is not clear,so further studies are needed to clarify this point. | Laura Petrarca Raffaella Nenna Antonella Frassanito Alessandra Pierangeli Greta Di Mattia Carolina Scagnolari Fabio Midulla | 2020 | World Journal of Pediatrics2020,16,3: | 17 |
| 18 | Minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer: A comparison between robotic, laparoscopic and open surgery显示文摘AIM To investigate the role of minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer and determine surgical, clinical, and oncological outcomes.METHODS This is a propensity score-matched case-control study, comparing three treatment arms: robotic gastrectomy(RG), laparoscopic gastrectomy(LG), open gastrectomy(OG). Data collection started after sharing a specific study protocol. Data were recorded through a tailored and protected web-based system. Primary outcomes: harvested lymph nodes, estimated blood loss, hospital stay, complications rate. Among the secondary outcomes, there are: operative time, R0 resections, POD of mobilization, POD of starting liquid diet and soft solid diet. The analysis includes the evaluation of type and grade of postoperative complications. Detailed information of anastomotic leakages is also provided.RESULTS The present analysis was carried out of 1026 gastrectomies. To guarantee homogenous distribution of cases, patients in the RG, LG and OG groups were 1:1:2 matched using a propensity score analysis with a caliper = 0.2. The successful matching resulted in a total sample of 604 patients(RG = 151; LG = 151; OG = 302). The three groups showed no differences in all baseline patients characteristics, type of surgery(P = 0.42) and stage of the disease(P = 0.16). Intraoperative blood loss was significantly lower in the LG(95.93 ± 119.22) and RG(117.91 ± 68.11) groups compared to the OG(127.26 ± 79.50, P = 0.002). The mean number of retrieved lymph nodes was similar between the RG(27.78 ± 11.45), LG(24.58 ± 13.56) and OG(25.82 ± 12.07) approach. A benefit in favor of the minimally invasive approaches was found in the length of hospital stay(P < 0.0001). A similar complications rate was found(P = 0.13). The leakage rate was not different(P = 0.78) between groups.CONCLUSION Laparoscopic and robotic surgery can be safely performed and proposed as possible alternative to open surgery. The main highlighted benefit is a faster postoperative functional recovery. | Amilcare Parisi Daniel Reim Felice Borghi Ninh T Nguyen Feng Qi Andrea Coratti Fabio Cianchi Maurizio Cesari Francesca Bazzocchi Orhan Alimoglu Johan Gagnière Graziano Pernazza Simone D'Imporzano Yan-Bing Zhou Juan-Santiago Azagra Olivier Facy Steven T Brower Zhi-Wei Jiang Lu Zang Arda Isik Alessandro Gemini Stefano Trastulli Alexander Novotny Alessandra Marano Tong Liu Mario Annecchiarico Benedetta Badii Giacomo Arcuri Andrea Avanzolini Metin Leblebici Denis Pezet Shou-Gen Cao Martine Goergen Shu Zhang Giorgio Palazzini Vito D'Andrea Jacopo Desiderio | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,13: | 17 |
| 19 | S100B protein in the gut:The evidence for enteroglial-sustained intestinal inflammation显示文摘Glial cells in the gut represent the morphological and functional equivalent of astrocytes and microglia in the central nervous system (CNS). In recent years, the role of enteric glial cells (EGCs) has extended from that of simple nutritive support for enteric neurons to that of being pivotal participants in the regulation of inflammatory events in the gut. Similar to the CNS astrocytes, the EGCs physiologically express the S100B protein that exerts either trophic or toxic effects depending on its concentration in the extracellular milieu. In the CNS, S100B overexpression is responsible for the initiation of a gliotic reaction by the release of pro-inflammatory mediators, which may have a deleterious effect on neighboring cells. S100B-mediated pro-inflammatory effects are not limited to the brain: S100B overexpression is associated with the onset and maintenance of inflammation in the human gut too. In this review we describe the major features of EGCs and S100B protein occurring in intestinal inflammation deriving from such. | Carla Cirillo Giovanni Sarnelli Giuseppe Esposito Fabio Turco Luca Steardo Rosario Cuomo | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,10: | 16 |
| 20 | Single-incision laparoscopic colorectal surgery for cancer: State of art显示文摘A number of clinical trials have demonstrated that the laparoscopic approach for colorectal cancer resection provides the same oncologic results as open surgery along with all clinical benefits of minimally invasive surgery.During the last years,a great effort has been made to research for minimizing parietal trauma,yet for cosmetic reasons and in order to further reduce surgery-related pain and morbidity.New techniques,such as natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery(NOTES)and single-incision laparoscopy(SIL)have been developed in order to reach the goal of'scarless'surgery.Although NOTES may seem not fully suitable or safe for advanced procedures,such as colectomies,SIL is currently regarded as the next major advance in the progress of minimally invasive surgical approaches to colorectal disease that is more feasible in generalized use.The small incision through the umbilicus allows surgeons to use familiar standard laparoscopic instruments and thus,perform even complex procedures which require extraction of large surgical specimens orintestinal anastomosis.The cosmetic result from SIL is also better because the only incision is made through the umbilicus which can hide the wound effectively after operation.However,SIL raises a number of specific new challenges compared with the laparoscopic conventional approach.A reduced capacity for triangulation,the repeated conflicts between the shafts of the instruments and the difficulties to achieve a correct exposure of the operative field are the most claimed issues.The use therefore of this new approach for complex colorectal procedures might understandingly be viewed as difficult to implement,especially for oncologic cases. | Fabio Cianchi Fabio Staderini Benedetta Badii | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,20: | 15 |
