1Gastroenterologist perceptions of faecal microbiota transplantation显示文摘AIM: To explore gastroenterologist perceptions towards and experience with faecal microbiota transplantation(FMT).METHODS: A questionnaire survey consisting of 17 questions was created to assess gastroenterologists' attitude towards and experience with FMT. This was anonymously distributed in hard copy format amongst attendees at gastroenterology meetings in Australia between October 2013 and April 2014. Basic descriptive statistical analyses were performed.RESULTS: Fifty-two clinicians participated. Twenty one percent had previously referred patients for FMT,8% more than once. Ninety percent would refer patients with Clostridium difficile infection(CDI) for FMT if easily available,37% for ulcerative colitis,13% for Crohn's disease and 6% for irritable bowel syndrome. Six percent would not refer any indication,including recurrent CDI. Eighty-six percent would enroll patients in FMT clinical trials. Thirty-seven percent considered the optimal mode of FMT administration transcolonoscopic,17% nasoduodenal,13% enema and 8% oral capsule. The greatest concerns regarding FMT were: 42% lack of evidence,12% infection risk,10% non infectious adverse effects/lack of safety data,10% aesthetic,10% lack of efficacy,4% disease exacerbation,and 2% inappropriate use; 6% had no concerns. Seventy seven percent believed there is a lack of accessibility while 52% had an interest in learning how to provide FMT. Only 6% offered FMT at their institution.CONCLUSION: Despite general enthusiasm,most gastroenterologists have limited experience with,or access to,FMT. The greatest concerns were lack of supportive evidence and safety issues. However a significant proportion would refer indications other than CDI for FMT despite insufficient evidence. These data provide guidance on where education and training are required.Sudarshan Paramsothy Alissa J Walsh Thomas Borody Douglas Samuel Johan van den Bogaerde Rupert WL Leong Susan Connor Watson Ng Hazel M Mitchell Nadeem O Kaakoush Michael A Kamm 2015World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,38:5
2Epigenetic profiles of pre-diabetes transitioning to type 2 diabetes and nephropathy显示文摘AIM: To examine DNA methylation profiles in a longitudinal comparison of pre-diabetes mellitus(Pre-DM) subjects who transitioned to type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).METHODS: We performed DNA methylation study in bisulphite converted DNA from Pre-DM(n = 11) at baseline and at their transition to T2 DM using Illumina Infinium Human Methylation27 Bead Chip, that enables the query of 27578 individual cytosines at Cp G loci throughout the genome, which are focused on the promoter regions of 14495 genes.RESULTS: There were 694 Cp G sites hypomethylated and 174 Cp G sites hypermethylated in progression from Pre-DM to T2 DM, representing putative genes involved in glucose and fructose metabolism, inflammation, oxidative and mitochondrial stress, and fatty acid metabolism. These results suggest that this high throughput platform is able to identify hundreds of prospective Cp G sites associated with diverse genes that may reflect differences in Pre-DM compared with T2 DM. In addition, there were Cp G hypomethylation changes associated with a number of genes that may be associated with development of complications of diabetes, such as nephropathy. These hypomethylation changes were observed in all of the subjects.CONCLUSION: These data suggest that some epigenomic changes that may be involved in the progression of diabetes and/or the development of complications may be apparent at the Pre-DM state or during the transition to diabetes. Hypomethylation of a number of genes related to kidney function may be an early marker for developing diabetic nephropathy.Thomas A Vander Jagt Monica H Neugebauer Marilee Morgan Donald W Bowden Vallabh O Shah 2015World Journal of Diabetes2015,6,9:5
3Epistaxis in end stage liver disease masquerading as severe upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage显示文摘AIM:To describe the prevalence,diagnosis,treatment,and outcomes of end stage liver disease(ESLD) patients with severe epistaxis thought to be severe upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage(UGIH).METHODS:This observational single center study included all consecutive patients with ESLD and epistaxis identified from consecutive subjects hospitalized with suspected UGIH and prospectively enrolled in our databases of severe UGIH between 1998 and 2011.RESULTS:A total of 1249 patients were registered for severe UGIH in the data basis,461(36.9%) were cirrhotics. Epistaxis rather than UGIH was the bleeding source in 20 patients. All patients had severe coagulopathy. Epistaxis was initially controlled in all cases. Fifteen(75%) subjects required posterior nasal packing and 2(10%) embolization in addition to correction of coagulopathy. Five(25%) patients died in the hospital,12(60%) received orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT),and 3(15%) were discharged without OLT. The mortality rate was 63% in patients without OLT.CONCLUSION:Severe epistaxis in patients with ESLD is(1) a diagnosis of exclusion that requires upper endoscopy to exclude severe UGIH;and(2) associated with a high mortality rate in patients not receiving OLT.Marine Camus Dennis M Jensen Jason D Matthews Gordon V Ohning Thomas O Kovacs Rome Jutabha Kevin A Ghassemi Gustavo A Machicado Gareth S Dulai 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,38:3
4Gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy: Current status and future directions显示文摘Gastroparesis, or symptomatic delayed gastric emptying in the absence of mechanical obstruction, is a challenging and increasingly identified syndrome. Medical options are limited and the only medication approved by the Food and Drug Administration for treatment of gastroparesis is metoclopramide, although other agents are frequently used off label. With this caveat, first-line treatments for gastroparesis include dietary modifications, antiemetics and promotility agents, although these therapies are limited by suboptimal efficacy and significant medication side effects. Treatment of patients that fail first-line treatments represents a significant therapeutic challenge. Recent advances in endoscopic techniques have led to the development of a promising novel endoscopic therapy for gastroparesis via endoscopic pyloromyotomy, also referred to as gastric per-oral endoscopic myotomy or per-oral endoscopic pyloromyotomy. The aim of this article is to review the technical aspects of the per-oral endoscopic myotomy procedure for the treatment of gastroparesis, provide an overview of the currently published literature, and outline potential next directions for the field.Alexander Podboy Joo Ha Hwang Linda A Nguyen Patricia Garcia Thomas A Zikos Afrin Kamal George Triadafilopoulos John O Clarke 2019World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,21:3
5Shoot and root traits in drought tolerant maize(Zea mays L.) hybrids显示文摘This study aimed to investigate the differences in shoot and root traits, and water use and water use efficiency(WUE) in drought tolerant(DT) maize(Zea mays L.) hybrids under full and deficit irrigated conditions. A two-year greenhouse study was conducted with four hybrids(one conventional hybrid, 33D53AM, two commercial DT hybrids, P1151 AM, N75H, and an experimental hybrid, Exp HB) grown under two water regimes(I_(100) and I_(50), referring to 100 and 50% of evapotranspiration requirements). Under water stress, the hybids P1151 AM, N75, and Exp HB showed more drought tolerance and had either greater shoot dry weight or less dry weight reduction than the conventional hybrid(33 D53 AM). However, these three hybrids responded to water stress using different mechanisms. Compared with the conventional hybrid, the two commercial DT hybrids(P1151 AM and N75H) had a smaller leaf area, shoot dry weight, and root system per plant. As a result, these hybrids used less water but had a higher WUE compared with the conventional hybrid. In contrast, the experimental hybrid(ExpHB) produced more shoot biomass by silking stage at both irrigation levels than all other hybrids, but it had relatively lower WUE. The hybrids demonstrated different drought response mechanisms that may require different irrigation management strategies. More investigation and validation are needed under field conditions and in different soil types.ZHAO Jin XUE Qing-wu Kirk E Jessup HOU Xiao-bo HAO Bao-zhen Thomas H Marek XU Wen-wei Steven R Evett Susan A O'Shaughnessy David K Brauer 2018Journal of Integrative Agriculture2018,17,5:3
6Whipple’s pancreaticoduodenectomy at a resource-poor,low-volume center in Trinidad and Tobago显示文摘BACKGROUND Many authorities advocate for Whipple’s procedures to be performed in highvolume centers,but many patients in poor developing nations cannot access these centers.We sought to determine whether clinical outcomes were acceptable when Whipple’s procedures were performed in a low-volume,resource-poor setting in the West Indies.AIM To study outcomes of Whipple’s procedures in a pancreatic unit in the West Indies over an eight-year period from June 1,2013 to June 30,2021.METHODS This was a retrospective study of all patients undergoing Whipple’s procedures in a pancreatic unit in the West Indies over an eight-year period from June 1,2013 to June 30,2021.RESULTS This center performed an average of 11.25 procedures per annum.There were 72 patients in the final study population at a mean age of 60.2 years,with 52.7%having American Society of Anesthesiologists scores≥III and 54.1%with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group scores≥2.Open Whipple’s procedures were performed in 70 patients and laparoscopic assisted procedures in 2.Portal vein resection/reconstruction was performed in 19(26.4%)patients.In patients undergoing open procedures there was 367±54.1 min mean operating time,1394±656.8 mL mean blood loss,5.24±7.22 d mean intensive care unit stay and 15.1±9.53 d hospitalization.Six(8.3%)patients experienced minor morbidity,10(14%)major morbidity and there were 4(5.5%)deaths.CONCLUSION This paper adds to the growing body of evidence that volume alone should not be used as a marker of quality for patients requiring Whipple’s procedures.Low volume centers in resource poor nations can achieve good short-term outcomes.This is largely due to the process of continuous,adaptive learning by the entire hospital.Shamir O Cawich Dexter A Thomas Neil W Pearce Vijay Naraynsingh 2022World Journal of Clinical Oncology2022,13,9:2
