1Current status of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with surgically altered anatomy显示文摘Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)in patients with surgically altered anatomy must be performed by a highly experienced endoscopist.The challenges are accessing the afferent limb in different types of reconstruction,cannulating a papilla with a reverse orientation,and performing therapeutic interventions with uncommon endoscopic accessories.The development of endoscopic techniques has led to higher success rates in this group of patients.Device-assisted ERCP is the endoscopic procedure of choice for high success rates in short-limb reconstruction;however,these success rate is lower in long-limb reconstruction.ERCP assisted by endoscopic ultrasonography is now popular because it can be performed independent of the limb length;however,it must be performed by a highly experienced and skilled endoscopist.Stent deployment and small stone removal can be performed immediately after ERCP assisted by endoscopic ultrasonography,but the second session is needed for other difficult procedures such as cholangioscopy-guided electrohydraulic lithotripsy.Laparoscopic-assisted ERCP has an almost 100%success rate in longlimb reconstruction because of the use of a conventional side-view duodenoscope,which is compatible with standard accessories.This requires cooperation between the surgeon and endoscopist and is suitable in urgent situations requiring concomitant cholecystectomy.This review focuses on the advantages,disadvantages,and outcomes of various procedures that are suitable in different situations and reconstruction types.Emerging new techniques and their outcomes are also discussed.Chonlada Krutsri Mitsuhiro Kida Hiroshi Yamauchi Tomohisa Iwai Hiroshi Imaizumi Wasaburo Koizumi 2019World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,26:23
2Multicenter study of endoscopic preoperative biliary drainage for malignant distal biliary obstruction显示文摘AIM: To determine the optimal method of endoscopic preoperative biliary drainage for malignant distal biliary obstruction.METHODS: Multicenter retrospective study was conducted in patients who underwent plastic stent(PS) or nasobiliary catheter(NBC) placement for resectable malignant distal biliary obstruction followed by surgery between January 2010 and March 2012. Procedurerelated adverse events, stent/catheter dysfunction(occlusion or migration of PS/NBC, developmentof cholangitis, or other conditions that required repeat endoscopic biliary intervention), and jaundice resolution(bilirubin level < 3.0 mg/d L) were evaluated. Cumulative incidence of jaundice resolution and dysfunction of PS/NBC were estimated using competing risk analysis. Patient characteristics and preoperative biliary drainage were also evaluated for association with the time to jaundice resolution and PS/NBC dysfunction using competing risk regression analysis.RESULTS: In total, 419 patients were included in the study(PS, 253 and NBC, 166). Primary cancers included pancreatic cancer in 194 patients(46%), bile duct cancer in 172(41%), gallbladder cancer in three(1%), and ampullary cancer in 50(12%). The median serum total bilirubin was 7.8 mg/d L and 324 patients(77%) had ≥ 3.0 mg/d L. During the median time to surgery of 29 d [interquartile range(IQR), 30-39 d]. PS/NBC dysfunction rate was 35% for PS and 18% for NBC [Subdistribution hazard ratio(SHR) = 4.76; 95%CI: 2.44-10.0, P < 0.001]; the pig-tailed tip was a risk factor for PS dysfunction. Jaundice resolution was achieved in 85% of patients and did not depend on the drainage method(PS or NBC).CONCLUSION: PS has insufficient patency for preoperative biliary drainage. Given the drawbacks of external drainage via NBC, an alternative method of internal drainage should be explored.Naoki Sasahira Tsuyoshi Hamada Osamu Togawa Ryuichi Yamamoto Tomohisa Iwai Kiichi Tamada Yoshiaki Kawaguchi Kenji Shimura Takero Koike Yu Yoshida Kazuya Sugimori Shomei Ryozawa Toshiharu Kakimoto Ko Nishikawa Katsuya Kitamura Tsunao Imamura Masafumi Mizuide Nobuo Toda Iruru Maetani Yuji Sakai Takao Itoi Masatsugu Nagahama Yousuke Nakai Hiroyuki Isayama 2016World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,14:18
3Short-type single balloon enteroscope for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with altered gastrointestinal anatomy显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the effectiveness of a short-type single-balloon-enteroscope(SBE) for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) in patients with a reconstructed intestine.METHODS:Short-type SBE was developed to perform ERCP in postoperative patients with a reconstructed intestine.Short-type SBE is a direct-viewing endoscope with the following specifications:working length,1520 mm;total length,1840 mm;channel diameter,3.2 mm.In addition,short-type SBE has a water-jet channel.The study group comprised 22 patients who underwent 31 sessions of short-type SBE-assisted ERCP from June 2011 through May 2012.Reconstruction was performed by Billroth-Ⅱ(B-Ⅱ) gastrectomy in 6 patients(8 sessions),Roux-en-Y(R-Y) gastrectomy in 14 patients(21 sessions),and R-Y hepaticojejunostomy in 2 patients(2 sessions).We retrospectively studied the rate of reaching the blind end(papilla of Vater or choledochojejunal anastomosis),mean time required to reach the blind end,diagnostic success rate(defined as the rate of successfully imaging the bile and pancreatic ducts),therapeutic success rate(defined as the rate of successfully completing endoscopic treatment),mean procedure time,and complications.RESULTS:Among the 31 sessions of ERCP,the rate of reaching the blind end was 88% in B-Ⅱ gastrectomy,91% in R-Y gastrectomy,and 100% in R-Y hepaticojejunostomy.The mean time required to reach the papilla was 18.3 min in B-Ⅱ gastrectomy,21.1 min in R-Y gastrectomy,and 32.5 min in R-Y hepaticojejunostomy.The diagnostic success rates in all patients and those with an intact papilla were respectively 86% and 86% in B-Ⅱ gastrectomy,90% and 87% in R-Y gastrectomy,and 100% in R-Y hepaticojejunostomy.The therapeutic success rates in all patients and those with an intact papilla were respectively 100% and 100% in B-Ⅱ gastrectomy,94% and 92% in R-Y gastrectomy,and 100% in R-Y hepaticojejunostomy.Because the channel diameter was 3.2 mm,stone extraction could be performed with a wire-guided basket in 12 sessions,and wireguided intraductal ultrasonography could be performed in 8 sessions.As for complications,hyperamylasemia(defined as a rise in serum amylase levels to more than 3 times the upper limit of normal) occurred in 1 patient(7 sessions) with a B-Ⅱ gastrectomy and 4 patients(19 sessions) with an R-Y gastrectomy.After ERCP in patients with an R-Y gastrectomy,2 patients(19 sessions) had pancreatitis,1 patient(21 sessions) had gastrointestinal perforation,and 1 patient(19 sessions) had papillary bleeding.Pancreatitis and bleeding were both mild.Gastrointestinal perforation improved after conservative treatment.CONCLUSION:Short-type SBE is effective for ERCP in patients with a reconstructed intestine and allows most conventional ERCP devices to be used.Hiroshi Yamauchi Mitsuhiro Kida Kosuke Okuwaki Shiro Miyazawa Tomohisa Iwai Miyoko Takezawa Hidehiko Kikuchi Maya Watanabe Hiroshi Imaizumi Wasaburo Koizumi 2013World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,11:10
4Lansoprazole ameliorates intestinal mucosal damage induced by ischemia-reperfusion in rats显示文摘AIM: To investigate the protective effect of lansoprazoleon ischemia and reperfusion (I/R)-induced rat intestinalmucosal injury in vivo.METHODS: Intestinal damage was induced by clampingboth the superior mesenteric artery and the celiac trunkfor 30 rain followed by reperfusion in male Sprague-Dawleyrats. lansoprazole was given to rats intraperitoneally 1 hbefore vascular clamping.RESULTS: Both the intraluminal hemoglobin and proteinlevels, as indices of mucosal damage, significantlyincreased in I/R-groups comparion with those of sham-operation groups. These increases in intraluminal hemoglobinand protein levels were significantly inhibited by the treatmentwith lansoprazole at a dose of 1 mg/kg. Small intestineexposed to I/R resulted in mucosal inflammation that wascharacterized by significant increases in thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), tissue-associatedmyeloperoxidase activity (MPO), and mucosal content of ratcytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1 (CINC-1).These increases in TBARS, MPO activities and CINC-1 contentin the intestinal mucosa after I/R were all inhibited bypretreatment with lansoprazole at a dose of 1 mg/kg.Furthermore, the CINC-1 mRNA expression was increasedduring intestinal I/R, and this increase in mRNA expressionwas inhibited by treatment with lansoprazole.CONCLUSION: Lansoprazole inhibits lipid peroxidation andreduces development of intestinal mucosal inflammationinduced by I/R in rats, suggesting that lansoprazole mayhave a therapeutic potential for I/R injury.Hiroshi Ichikawa Norimasa Yoshida Tomohisa Takagi Naoya Tomatsuri Kazuhiro Katada Yutaka Isozaki Kazuhiko Uchiyama Yuji Naito Takeshi Okanoue Toshikazu Yoshikawa 2004World Journal of Gastroenterology2004,10,19:10
5Vascular endothelial growth factor 165b expression in stromal cells and colorectal cancer显示文摘AIM:To characterize the implications of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)-A in stromal cells and colorectal cancer and the expression of VEGF-A splice variants.METHODS:VEGF-A expression in tumor and stromal cells from 165 consecutive patients with colorectal cancer was examined by immunohistochemistry.The association between VEGF-A expression status and clinicopathological factors was investigated.Twenty freshfrozen samples were obtained for laser capture microdissection to analyze the splice variants of VEGF-A.RESULTS:VEGF-A was expressed in 53.9% and 42.4% of tumor and stromal cells,respectively.VEGF-A expression in tumor cells(t-VEGF-A) was associated with advanced clinical stage(stage 0,1/9;stage 1,2/16;stage 2,32/55;stage 3,38/66;stage 4,16/19,P < 0.0001).VEGF-A expression in stromal cells(s-VEGF-A) increased in the earlier clinical stage(stage 0,7/9;stage 1,6/16;stage 2,33/55;stage 3,22/66;stage 4,5/19;P = 0.004).Multivariate analyses for risk factors of recurrence showed that only s-VEGF-A expression was an independent risk factor for recurrence(relative risk 0.309,95% confidence interval 0.141-0.676,P = 0.0033).The five-year disease-free survival(DFS) rates of t-VEGF-A-positive and-negative cases were 51.4% and 62.9%,respectively.There was no significant difference in t-VEGF-A expression status.The five-year DFS rates of s-VEGF-A-positive and-negative cases were 73.8% and 39.9%,respectively.s-VEGFA-positive cases had significantly better survival than s-VEGF-A-negative cases(P = 0.0005).Splice variant analysis revealed that t-VEGF-A was mainly composed of VEGF165 and that s-VEGF-A included both VEGF165 and VEGF165b.In cases with no venous invasion(v0),the level of VEGF165b mRNA was significantly higher(v0 204.5 ± 122.7,v1 32.5 ± 36.7,v2 2.1 ± 1.7,P = 0.03).The microvessel density tended to be lower in cases with higher VEGF165b mRNA levels.CONCLUSION:s-VEGF-A appears be a good prognostic factor for colorectal cancer and includes VEGF165 and VEGF165b.Makoto Tayama Tomohisa Furuhata Yoshiko Inafuku Kenji Okita Toshihiko Nishidate Toru Mizuguchi Yasutoshi Kimura Koichi Hirata 2011World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,44:10
6Prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection and atrophic gastritis in patients with dyspeptic symptoms in Myanmar显示文摘AIM: To survey the detailed analyses for Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection and gastric mucosal status in Myanmar.METHODS: A total of 252 volunteers with dyspeptic symptoms(155 female and 97 male; mean age of 43.6 ± 14.2 years) was participated in Yangon and Mandalay. The status of H. pylori infection was determined based on 5 different tests including rapid urease test, culture, histology, immunohistochemistry and serology. Histological scores were evaluated according to the update Sydney system and the Operative Link for Gastritis Assessment system. Pepsinogen(PG)Ⅰand PG Ⅱ were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.RESULTS: The overall prevalence of H. pylori infectionwas 48.0%. There was no relationship between age and infection rate. Even in young group(less than 29 years old), the H. pylori infection rate was relatively high(41.9%). The prevalence of H. pylori infection was significantly higher in Yangon than that of Mandalay. H. pylori infection was significantly associated with the presence of gastric mucosal atrophy. All 7 subjects with peptic ulcer were infected with H. pylori. Although H. pylori-positive subjects showed stronger gastritis than H. pylori-negative subjects, most cases had mild gastritis.CONCLUSION: We revealed the prevalence of H. pylori infection in patients with dyspeptic symptoms in Myanmar. The H. pylori infection was a risk factor for peptic ulcer and stronger gastritis.Thein Myint Seiji Shiota Ratha-korn Vilaichone New Ni Than Than Aye Miyuki Matsuda Trang Thi Huyen Tran Tomohisa Uchida Varocha Mahachai Yoshio Yamaoka 2015World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,2:10
7Innovations and techniques for balloon-enteroscopeassisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography in patients with altered gastrointestinal anatomy显示文摘Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) remains challenging in patients who have undergone surgical reconstruction of the intestine.Recently,many studies have reported that balloonenteroscope-assisted ERCP(BEA-ERCP) is a safe and effective procedure.However,further improvements in outcomes and the development of simplified procedures are required.Percutaneous treatment,Laparoscopy-assisted ERCP,endoscopic ultrasoundguided anterograde intervention,and open surgery are effective treatments.However,treatment should be noninvasive,effective,and safe.We believe that these procedures should be performed only in difficult-to-treat patients because of many potential complications.BEA-ERCP still requires high expertiselevel techniques and is far from a routinely performed procedure.Various techniques have been proposed to facilitate scope insertion(insertion with percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage(PTBD) rendezvous technique,Short type single-balloon enteroscopes with passive bending section,Intraluminal injection of indigo carmine,CO2 inflation guidance),cannulation(PTBD or percutaneous transgallbladder drainage rendezvous technique,Dilation using screw drill,Rendezvous technique combining DBE with a cholangioscope,endoscopic ultrasound-guided rendezvous technique),and treatment(overtube-assisted technique,Short type balloon enteroscopes) during BEA-ERCP.The use of these techniques may allow treatment to be performed by BEA-ERCP in many patients.A standard procedure for ERCP yet to be established for patients with a reconstructed intestine.At present,BEA-ERCP is considered the safest and most effective procedure and is therefore likely to be recommended as firstline treatment.In this article,we discuss the current status of BEA-ERCP in patients with surgically altered gastrointestinal anatomy.Hiroshi Yamauchi Mitsuhiro Kida Hiroshi Imaizumi Kosuke Okuwaki Shiro Miyazawa Tomohisa Iwai Wasaburo Koizumi 2015World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,21:9
8Methods of induced pluripotent stem cells for clinical application显示文摘Reprograming somatic cells using exogenetic gene expression represents a groundbreaking step in regenerative medicine. Induced pluripotent stem cells(i PSCs) are expected to yield novel therapies with the potential to solve many issues involving incurable diseases. In particular, applying i PSCs clinically holds the promise of addressing the problems of immune rejection and ethics that have hampered the clinical applications of embryonic stem cells. However, as i PSC research has progressed, new problems have emerged that need to be solved before the routine clinical application of i PSCs can become established. In this review, we discuss the current technologies and future problems of human i PSC generation methods for clinical use.Tomohisa Seki Keiichi Fukuda 2015World Journal of Stem Cells2015,7,1:8
9Extremely high prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection in Bhutan显示文摘AIM: To revealed the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori ) infection in the Bhutanese population. METHODS: We recruited a total of 372 volunteers (214 females and 158 males; mean age of 39.6 ± 14.9 years) from three Bhutanese cities (Thimphu, Punaka, and Wangdue). The status of H. pylori infection was determined based on five different tests: the rapid urease test (CLO test), culture, histology, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and serum anti H. pylori -antibody. RESULTS: The serological test showed a significantly higher positive rate compared with the CLO test, culture, histology and IHC (P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P=0.01, and P=0.01, respectively). When the subjects were considered to be H. pylori positive in the case of at least one test showing a positive result, the overall prevalence of H. pylori infection in Bhutan was 73.4%. The prevalence of H. pylori infection significantly decreased with age (P < 0.01). The prevalence of H. pylori infection was lower in Thimphu than in Punakha and Wangdue (P=0.001 and 0.06, respectively). The prevalence of H. pylori infection was significantly higher in patients with peptic ulcers than in those with gastritis (91.4% vs 71.3%, P=0.003). CONCLUSION: The high incidence of gastric cancer in Bhutan may be attributed to the high prevalence of H. pylori infection.Ratha-korn Vilaichone Varocha Mahachai Seiji Shiota Tomohisa Uchida Thawee Ratanachu-ek Lotay Tshering Nguyen Lam Tung Toshio Fujioka Masatsugu Moriyama Yoshio Yamaoka 2013World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,18:8

11Antibiotics resistance rate of Helicobacter pylori in Bhutan显示文摘AIM:To survey the antibiotic resistance pattern of Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)strains isolated from Bhutanese population.METHODS:We isolated 111 H.pylori strains from the gastric mucosa of H.pylori-infected patients in Bhutan in 2010.The Epsilometer test was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentrations(MICs)of amoxicillin(AMX),clarithromycin(CLR),metronidazole(MNZ),levofloxacin(LVX),ciprofloxacin(CIP),and tetracycline(TET).RESULTS:Nineteen of the isolated H.pylori strains were susceptible to all antibiotics tested.The isolated strains showed the highest rate of antibiotic resistance to MNZ(92/111,82.9%).Among the 92 MNZresistant strains,74 strains(80.4%)showed high-level resistance(MIC≥256 g/mL).Three strains were resistance to LVX(2.7%).These strains were also resistance to CIP.None of the strains showed resistance to CLR,AMX and TET.CONCLUSION:CLR-based triple therapy is a more effective treatment approach over MNZ-based triple therapy for H.pylori infection in Bhutan.Ratha-korn Vilaichone Yoshio Yamaoka Seiji Shiota Thawee Ratanachu-ek Lotay Tshering Tomohisa Uchida Toshio Fujioka Varocha Mahachai 2013World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,33:6
12Chronic hepatitis C virus infection and lipoprotein metabolism显示文摘Hepatitis C virus(HCV) is a hepatotrophic virus and a major cause of chronic liver disease,including hepatocellular carcinoma,worldwide. The life cycle of HCV is closely associated with the metabolism of lipids and lipoproteins. The main function of lipoproteins is transporting lipids throughout the body. Triglycerides,free cholesterol,cholesteryl esters,and phospholipids are the major components of the transported lipids. The pathway of HCV assembly and secretion is closely linked to lipoprotein production and secretion,and the infectivity of HCV particles largely depends on the interaction of lipoproteins. Moreover,HCV entry into hepatocytes is strongly influenced by lipoproteins. The key lipoprotein molecules mediating these interactions are apolipoproteins. Apolipoproteins are amphipathic proteins on the surface of a lipoprotein particle,which help stabilize lipoprotein structure. They perform a key role in lipoprotein metabolism by serving as receptor ligands,enzyme co-factors,and lipid transport carriers. Understanding the association between the life cycle of HCV and lipoprotein metabolism is important because each step of the life cycle of HCV that is associated with lipoprotein metabolism is a potential target for anti-HCV therapy. In this article,we first concisely review the nature of lipoprotein and its metabolism to better understand the complicated interaction of HCV with lipoprotein. Then,we review the outline of the processes of HCV assembly,secretion,and entry into hepatocytes,focusing on the association with lipoproteins. Finally,we discuss the clinical aspects of disturbed lipid/lipoprotein metabolism and the significance of dyslipoproteinemia in chronic HCV infection with regard to abnormal apolipoproteins.Yoshio Aizawa Nobuyoshi Seki Tomohisa Nagano Hiroshi Abe 2015World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,36:6
13Partially hydrolyzed guar gum attenuates non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in mice through the gut-liver axis显示文摘BACKGROUND The gut-liver axis has attracted much interest in the context of chronic liver disease pathogenesis.Prebiotics such as dietary fibers were shown to attenuate non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)by modulating gut microbiota.Partially hydrolyzed guar gum(PHGG),a water-soluble dietary fiber,has been reported to alleviate the symptoms of various intestinal diseases and metabolic syndromes.However,its effects on NAFLD remain to be fully elucidated.To determine whether treatment with PHGG attenuates NAFLD development in mice through the gut-liver axis.METHODS Seven-week-old male C57BL/6J mice with increased intestinal permeability were fed a control or atherogenic(Ath)diet(a mouse model of NAFLD)for 8 wk,with or without 5%PHGG.Increased intestinal permeability was induced through chronic intermittent administration of low-dose dextran sulfate sodium.Body weight,liver weight,macroscopic findings in the liver,blood biochemistry[aspartate aminotransferase(AST)and alanine aminotransferase(ALT),total cholesterol,triglyceride,free fatty acids,and glucose levels],liver histology,myeloperoxidase activity in liver tissue,mRNA expression in the liver and intestine,serum endotoxin levels in the portal vein,intestinal permeability,and microbiota and short-chain fatty acid(SCFA)profiles in the cecal samples were investigated.RESULTS Mice with increased intestinal permeability subjected to the Ath diet showed significantly increased serum AST and ALT levels,liver fat accumulation,liver inflammatory(tumor necrosis factor-αand monocyte chemotactic protein-1)and fibrogenic(collagen 1a1 andαsmooth muscle actin)marker levels,and liver myeloperoxidase activity,which were significantly attenuated by PHGG treatment.Furthermore,the Ath diet combined with increased intestinal permeability resulted in elevated portal endotoxin levels and activated toll-like receptor(TLR)4 and TLR9 expression,confirming that intestinal permeability was significantly elevated,as observed by evaluating the lumen-to-blood clearance of fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated dextran.PHGG treatment did not affect fatty acid metabolism in the liver.However,it decreased lipopolysaccharide signaling through the gut-liver axis.In addition,it significantly increased the abundance of cecal Bacteroides and Clostridium subcluster XIVa.Treatment with PHGG markedly increased the levels of SCFAs,particularly,butyric acid,acetic acid,propionic acid,and formic acid,in the cecal samples.CONCLUSION PHGG partially prevented NAFLD development in mice through the gut-liver axis by modulating microbiota and downstream SCFA profiles.Shun Takayama Kazuhiro Katada Tomohisa Takagi Takaya Iida Tomohiro Ueda Katsura Mizushima Yasuki Higashimura Mayuko Morita Tetsuya Okayama Kazuhiro Kamada Kazuhiko Uchiyama Osamu Handa Takeshi Ishikawa Zenta Yasukawa Tsutomu Okubo Yoshito Itoh Yuji Naito 2021World Journal of Gastroenterology2021,27,18:4
14Safety and efficacy of metallic stent for unresectable distal malignant biliary obstruction in elderly patients显示文摘AIM To study the safety of insertion of metallic stents in elderly patients with unresectable distal malignant biliary obstruction.METHODS Of 272 patients with unresectable distal malignant biliary obstruction, 184 patients under the age of 80 were classified into Group A, and 88 subjects aged 80 years or more were classified into Group B. The safety of metallic stent insertion, metal stent patency period, and the obstruction rate were examined in each group.RESULTS In Group B, patients had a significantly worse per-formance status, high blood pressure, heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and dementia; besides the rate of patients orally administered antiplatelet drugs or anticoagulants tended to be higher(P < 0.05). Metallic stents were successfully inserted in all patients. The median patency period was 265.000 ± 26.779(1-965) d; 252.000 ± 35.998(1-618) d in Group A and 269.000 ± 47.885(1-965) d in Group B, with no significant difference between the two groups. Metallic stent obstruction occurred in 82 of the 272(30.15%) patients; in 53/184(28.80%) patients in Group A and in 29/88(32.95%) of those in Group B, showing no significant difference between the two groups. Procedural accidents due to metal stent insertion occurred in 24/272(8.8%) patients; in 17/184(9.2%) of patients in Group A and in 7/88(8.0%) of those in Group B, with no significant difference between the two groups, either.CONCLUSION These results suggested that metallic stents can be safely inserted to treat unresectable distal malignant biliary obstruction even in elderly patients aged 80 years or more.Yuji Sakai Tomohisa Iwai Kenji Shimura Katsushige Gon Kazuya Koizumi Masashi Ijima Kazuro Chiba Seigo Nakatani Harutoshi Sugiyama Toshio Tsuyuguchi Terumi Kamisawa Iruu Maetani Mitsuhiro Kida 2018World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,1:4
15Clinical usefulness of ursodeoxycholic acid for Japanese patients with autoimmune hepatitis显示文摘AIM To evaluate the therapeutic effects of ursodeoxycholic acid(UDCA) on autoimmune hepatitis(AIH).METHODS A total 136 patients who were diagnosed with AIH were included in our study. All of the patients underwent a liver biopsy, and had at least a probable diagnosis on the basis of either the revised scoring system or the simplified scores. Initial treatment included UDCA monotherapy(Group U, n = 48) and prednisolone(PSL) monotherapy(Group P, n = 88). Group U was further classified into two subgroups according to the effect of UDCA: Patients who had achieved remission induction with UDCA monotherapy and showed no sign of relapse(Subgroup U1, n = 34) and patients who additionally received PSL during follow-up(Subgroup U2, n = 14). We compared the clinical and histological findings between each groups, and investigated factorscontributing to the response to UDCA monotherapy.RESULTS In Group U, 34 patients(71%) achieved and maintained remission over 49(range: 8-90) mo(Subgroup U1) and 14 patients(29%) additionally received PSL(Subgroup U2) during follow-up. Two patients in Subgroup U2 achieved remission induction once but additionally required PSL administration because of relapse(15 and 35 mo after the start of treatment). The remaining 12 patients in Subgroup U2 failed to achieve remission induction during follow-up, and PSL was added during 7(range: 2-18) mo. Compared with Subgroup U2, Subgroup U1 had significantly lower alanine aminotransferase(ALT) levels at onset(124 IU/L vs 262 IU/L, P = 0.023) and a significantly higher proportion of patients with mild inflammation(A1) on histological examination(70.6% vs 35.7%, P = 0.025). When multivariate analysis was performed to identify factors contributing to the response to UDCA monotherapy, only a serum ALT level of 200 IU/L or lower was found to be associated with a significant difference(P = 0.013).CONCLUSION To prevent adverse events related to corticosteroids, UDCA monotherapy for AIH needs to be considered in patients with a serum ALT level of 200 IU/L or lower.Yuichi Torisu Masanori Nakano Keiko Takano Ryo Nakagawa Chisato Saeki Atsushi Hokari Tomohisa Ishikawa Masayuki Saruta Mikio Zeniya 2017World Journal of Hepatology2017,9,1:3
16Hemorrhagic shock due to submucosal esophageal hematoma along with mallory-weiss syndrome:A case report显示文摘BACKGROUND Esophageal submucosal hematoma is a rare condition.Although the exact etiology remains uncertain,vessel fragility with external factors is believed to have led to submucosal bleeding and hematoma formation;the vessel was ruptured by a sudden increase in pressure due to nausea,and the hematoma was enlarged by antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy.Serious conditions are rare,with a better prognosis.We present the first known case of submucosal esophageal hematoma-subsequent hemorrhagic shock due to Mallory-Weiss syndrome.CASE SUMMARY A 73-year-old female underwent endovascular treatment for an unruptured cerebral aneurysm.The patient received aspirin and clopidogrel before surgery and heparin during surgery,and was well during the surgery.Several hours after returning to the ICU,she complained of chest discomfort,vomited 500 m L of fresh blood,and entered hemorrhagic shock.Esophageal submucosal hematoma with Mallory-Weiss syndrome was diagnosed through an endoscopic examination and computed tomography.In addition to a massive fluid and erythrocyte transfusion,we performed a temporary compression for hemostasis with a Sengstaken-Blakemore(S-B)tube.Afterwards,she became hemodynamically stable.On postoperative day 1,we performed an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and confirmed no expansion of the hematoma nor any recurring bleeding;therefore,we removed the S-B tube and clipped the gastric mucosal laceration at the esophagogastric junction.We started oral intake on postoperative day 10.The patient made steady progress,and was discharged on postoperative day 33.CONCLUSION We present the first known case of submucosal esophageal hematoma subsequent hemorrhagic shock due to Mallory-Weiss syndrome.Jiro Oba Daisuke Usuda Shiho Tsuge Riki Sakurai Kenji Kawai Shun Matsubara Risa Tanaka Makoto Suzuki Hayabusa Takano Shintaro Shimozawa Yuta Hotchi Kenki Usami Shungo Tokunaga Ippei Osugi Risa Katou Sakurako Ito Kentaro Mishima Akihiko Kondo Keiko Mizuno Hiroki Takami Takayuki Komatsu Tomohisa Nomura Manabu Sugita 2022World Journal of Clinical Cases2022,10,27:3
17First case of IgG4-related sclerosing cholangitis associated with autoimmune hemolytic anemia显示文摘To our knowledge,patients with immunoglobulin G4-related sclerosing cholangitis(IgG4-SC)associated with autoimmune hemolytic anemia(AIHA)have not been reported previously.Many patients with IgG4-SC have autoimmune pancreatitis(AIP)and respond to steroid treatment.However,isolated cases of IgG4-SC are difficult to diagnose.We describe our experience with a patient who had IgG4-SC without AIP in whom the presence of AIHA led to diagnosis.The patient was a73-year-old man who was being treated for dementia.Liver dysfunction was diagnosed on blood tests at another hospital.Imaging studies suggested the presence of carcinoma of the hepatic hilus and primary sclerosing cholangitis,but a rapidly progressing anemia developed simultaneously.After the diagnosis of AIHA,steroid treatment was begun,and the biliary stricture improved.IgG4-SC without AIP was thus diagnosed.Hironori Masutani Kosuke Okuwaki Mitsuhiro Kida Hiroshi Yamauchi Hiroshi Imaizumi Shiro Miyazawa Tomohisa Iwai Miyoko Takezawa Wasaburo Koizumi 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,26:3
18Usefulness of serum lipase for early diagnosis of post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis显示文摘BACKGROUND Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)pancreatitis(PEP)is new onset acute pancreatitis after ERCP.This complication is sometimes fatal.As such,PEP should be diagnosed early so that therapeutic interventions can be carried out.Serum lipase(s-Lip)is useful for diagnosing acute pancreatitis.However,its usefulness for diagnosing PEP has not been sufficiently investigated.AIM This study aimed to retrospectively examine the usefulness of s-Lip for the early diagnosis of PEP.METHODS We retrospectively examined 4192 patients who underwent ERCP at our two hospitals over the last 5 years.The primary outcomes were a comparison of the areas under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves(AUCs)of s-Lip and serum amylase(s-Amy),s-Lip and s-Amy cutoff values based on the presence or absence of PEP in the early stage after ERCP via ROC curves,and the diagnostic properties[sensitivities,specificities,positive predictive values(PPV),and negative predictive value(NPV)]of these cutoff values for PEP diagnosis.RESULTS Based on the eligibility and exclusion criteria,804 cases were registered.Over the entire course,PEP occurred in 78 patients(9.7%).It occurred in the early stage after ERCP in 40 patients(51.3%)and in the late stage after ERCP in 38 patients(48.7%).The AUCs were 0.908 for s-Lip[95%confidence interval(CI):0.880-0.940,P<0.001]and 0.880 for s-Amy(95%CI:0.846-0.915,P<0.001),indicating both are useful for early diagnosis.By comparing the AUCs,s-Lip was found to be significantly more useful for the early diagnosis of PEP than s-Amy(P=0.023).The optimal cutoff values calculated from the ROC curves were 342 U/L for s-Lip(sensitivity,0.859;specificity,0.867;PPV,0.405;NPV,0.981)and 171 U/L for s-Amy(sensitivity,0.859;specificity,0.763;PPV,0.277;NPV,0.979).CONCLUSION S-Lip was significantly more useful for the early diagnosis of PEP.Measuring s-Lip after ERCP could help diagnose PEP earlier;hence,therapeutic interventions can be provided earlier.Masayoshi Tadehara Kosuke Okuwaki Hiroshi Imaizumi Mitsuhiro Kida Tomohisa Iwai Hiroshi Yamauchi Toru Kaneko Rikiya Hasegawa Eiji Miyata Yusuke Kawaguchi Hironori Masutani Wasaburo Koizumi 2019World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2019,11,9:3
19Clinical implications of doubling time of gastrointestinal submucosal tumors显示文摘AIM To evaluate the efficacy of doubling time(DT) of gastrointestinal submucosal tumors(GIST).METHODS From April 1987 through November 2012, a total of 323 patients were given a final histopathological diagnosis of GISTs on surgical resection or endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration(EUS-FNA) in Kitasato University East Hospital or Kitasato University Hospital. We studied 53 of these patients(34 with resected tumors and 19 with unresected tumors) whose tumors could be measured on EUS on at least two successive occasions. The histopathological diagnosis was GIST in 34 patients, leiomyoma in 5, schwannoma in 3, ectopic pancreas in 1, hamartoma in 1, cyst in 1, Brunner's adenoma in 1, and spindle-cell tumor in 7. We retrospectively calculated the DT of GISTs on the basis of the time course of EUS findings to estimate the growth rate of such tumors.RESULTS The DT was 17.2 mo for GIST, as compared with 231.2 mo for leiomyoma, 104.7 mo for schwannoma, 274.9mo for ectopic pancreas, 61.2 mo for hamartoma, 49.0 mo for cyst, and 134.7 mo for Brunner's adenoma. The GISTs were divided into risk classes on the basis of tumor diameters and mitotic figures(Fletcher's classification). The classification was extremely low risk or low risk in 28 patients, intermediate risk in 3, and high risk in 3. DT of GIST according to risk was 24.0 mo for extremely low-risk plus low-risk GIST, 17.1 mo for intermediate-risk GIST, and 3.9 mo for high-risk GIST. DT of GIST was significantly shorter than that of leiomyoma plus schwannoma(P < 0.05), and DT of high-risk GIST was significantly shorter than that of extremely low-risk plus low-risk GIST(P < 0.05).CONCLUSION For GIST, a higher risk grade was associated with a significantly shorter DT. Small SMTs should initially be followed up within 6 mo after detection.Shuko Koizumi Mitsuhiro Kida Hiroshi Yamauchi Kosuke Okuwaki Tomohisa Iwai Shiro Miyazawa Miyoko Takezawa Hiroshi Imaizumi Wasaburo Koizumi 2016World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,45:3
