| 1 | New-onset diabetes after kidney transplantation:Incidence and associated factors显示文摘AIM To determine the incidence and associated factors of new-onset diabetes after transplantation(NODAT) in a Portuguese central hospital. METHODS This single-center retrospective study involved consecutive adult nondiabetic transplant recipients, who had undergone kidney transplantation between January 2012 and March 2016. NODAT was diagnosed according to the criteria of the American Diabetes Association. Data were collected from an institutional database of the Nephrology and Kidney Transplantation Department(Santa Maria Hospital, Lisbon, Portugal) and augmented with data of laboratorial parameters collected from the corresponding patient electronic medical records. Exclusion criteria were preexisting diabetes mellitus, missing information and follow-up period of less than 12 mo. Data on demographic and clinical characteristics as well as anthropometric and laboratorial parameters were also collected. Patients were divided into two groups: With and without NODAT-for statistical comparison.RESULTS A total of 156 patients received kidney transplantduring the study period, 125 of who were included in our analysis. NODAT was identified in 27.2% of the patients(n = 34; 53% female; mean age: 49.5 ± 10.8 years; median follow-up: 36.4 ± 2.5 mo). The incidence in the first year was 24.8%. The median time to diagnosis was 3.68 ± 5.7 mo after transplantation, and 76.5% of the patients developed NODAT in the first 3 mo. In the group that did not develop NODAT(n = 91), 47% were female, with mean age of 46.4 ± 13.5 years and median follow-up of 35.5 ± 1.6 mo. In the NODAT group, the pretransplant fasting plasma glucose(FPG) levels were significantly higher [101(96.1-105.7) mg/d L vs 92(91.4-95.8) mg/d L, P = 0.007] and pretransplant impaired fasting glucose(IFG) was significantly more frequent(51.5% vs 27.7%, P = 0.01). Higher pretransplant FPG levels and pretransplant IFG were found to be predictive risk factors for NODAT development [odds ratio(OR): 1.059, P = 0.003; OR: 2.772, P = 0.017, respectively]. CONCLUSION NODAT incidence was high in our renal transplant recipients, particularly in the first 3 mo posttransplant, and higher pretransplant FPG level and IFG were risk factors. | Vania Gomes Florbela Ferreira JoséGuerra Maria Joao Bugalho | 2018 | World Journal of Diabetes2018，9，7： | 8 |
| 2 | Does mindfulness meditation improve attention in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder?显示文摘Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD) manifests by high levels of inattention, impulsiveness and hyperactivity. ADHD starts in childhood and results in impairments that continue into adulthood. While hyperactivity declines over time, inattention and executive function difficulties persist, leading to functional deficits. Adolescents and adults with ADHD have pervasive impairment in interpersonal and family relationships. They may develop addiction, delinquent behavior and comorbid psychiatric disorders. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, persistent residual symptoms are common, highlighting the need for novel treatment strategies. Mindfulness training, derived from Eastern meditation practices, may improve self-regulation of attention. It may also be a useful strategy to augment standard ADHD treatments and may be used as a potential tool to reduce impairments in patients with residual symptoms of ADHD. Clinically, this would manifest by an increased ability to suppress task-unrelated thoughts and distractions resulting in improved attention, completion of tasks and potential improvement in occupational and social function. | Vania Modesto-Lowe Pantea Farahmand Margaret Chaplin Lauren Sarro | 2015 | World Journal of Psychiatry2015，5，4： | 5 |
| 3 | Hepatorenal syndrome: Update on diagnosis and treatment显示文摘Acute kidney injury(AKI) is a common complication in patients with end-stage liver disease and advanced cirrhosis regardless of the underlying cause. Hepatorenal syndrome(HRS), a functional form of kidney failure, is one of the many possible causes of AKI. HRS is potentially reversible but involves highly complex pathogenetic mechanisms and equally complex clinical and therapeutic management. Once HRS has developed, it has a very poor prognosis. This review focuses on the diagnostic approach to HRS and discusses the therapeutic protocols currently adopted in clinical practice. | Olga Baraldi Chiara Valentini Gabriele Donati Giorgia Comai Vania Cuna Irene Capelli Maria Laura Angelini Maria Ilaria Moretti Andrea Angeletti Fabio Piscaglia Gaetano La Manna | 2015 | World Journal of Nephrology2015，4，5： | 5 |
| 4 | Noninvasive methods for prediction of esophageal varices in pediatric patients with portal hypertension显示文摘AIM: To evaluate clinical and laboratory parameters for prediction of bleeding from esophageal varices (EV) in children with portal hypertension. METHODS: Retrospective study of 103 children (mean age: 10.1 ± 7.7 years), 95.1% with intrahepatic portal hypertension. All patients had no history of bleeding and underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy for EV screening. We recorded variceal size (F1, F2 and F3), red-color signs and portal gastropathy, according to the Japanese Research Society for Portal Hypertension classification. Patients were classified into two groups: with and without EV. Seven noninvasive markers were evaluated as potential predictors of EV: (1) platelet count; (2) spleen size z score, expressed as a standard deviation score relative to normal values for age; (3)platelet count to spleen size z score ratio; (4) platelets count to spleen size (cm) ratio; (5) the clinical prediction rule (CPR); (6) the aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index (APRI); and (7) the risk score. RESULTS: Seventy-one children had EV on first endoscopy. On univariate analysis, spleen size, platelets, CPR, risk score, APRI, and platelet count to spleen size z score ratio showed significant associations. The best noninvasive predictors of EV were platelet count [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) 0.82; 95%CI: 0.73-0.91], platelet: spleen size z score (AUROC 0.78; 95%CI: 0.67-0.88), CPR (AUROC 0.77; 95%CI: 0.64-0.89), and risk score (AUROC 0.77; 95%CI: 0.66-0.88). A logistic regression model was applied with EV as the dependent variable and corrected by albumin, bilirubin and spleen size z score. Children with a CPR < 114 were 20.7-fold more likely to have EV compared to children with CPR > 114. A risk score > -1.2 increased the likelihood of EV (odds ratio 7.47; 95%CI: 2.06-26.99). CONCLUSION: Children with portal hypertension with a CPR below 114 and a risk score greater than -1.2 are more likely to have present EV. Therefore, these two tests can be helpful in selecting children for endoscopy. | Marina Rossato Adami Cristina Targa Ferreira Carlos Oscar Kieling Vania Hirakata Sandra Maria Gonalves Vieira | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013，19，13： | 4 |
| 5 | Radio Electric Asymmetric Conveyer Technology Modulates Neuroinflammation in a Mouse Model of Neurodegeneration显示文摘In this study, the effects of Radio Electric Asymmetric Conveyer(REAC), a non-invasive physical treatment, on neuroinflammatory responses in a mouse model of parkinsonism induced by intoxication with1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine(MPTP),were investigated in vivo. We found that the REAC tissue optimization treatment specific for neuro-regenerative purposes(REAC TO-RGN-N) attenuated the inflammatory picture evoked by MPTP-induced nigro-striatal damage inmice, decreasing the levels of pro-inflammatory molecules and increasing anti-inflammatory mediators. Besides, there was a significant reduction of both astrocyte and microglial activation in MPTP-treated mice exposed to REAC TORGN-N. These results indicated that REAC TO-RGN-N treatment modulates the pro-inflammatory responses and reduces neuronal damage in MPTP-induced parkinsonism. | Maria Antonietta Panaro Alessandra Aloisi Giuseppe Nicolardi Dario Domenico Lofrumento Francesco De Nuccio Velia La Pesa Antonia Cianciulli Rosaria Rinaldi Rosa Calvello Vania Fontani Salvatore Rinaldi | 2018 | Neuroscience Bulletin2018，34，2： | 3 |
| 6 | Sex-specific effects of Eugenia punicifolia extract on gastric ulcer healing in rats显示文摘AIM To evaluate the sex-specific effects of a hydroalcoholic extract from Eugenia punicifolia(HEEP) leaves on gastric ulcer healing.METHODS In this rat study involving males, intact(cycling) females, and ovariectomized females, gastric ulcers were induced using acetic acid. A vehicle, lansoprazole, or HEEP was administered for 14 d after ulcer induction. Body weight was monitored throughout the treatment period. At the end of treatment, the rats were euthanized and the following in vivo and in vitro investigations were performed: macroscopic examination of the lesion area and organ weights, biochemical analysis, zymography, and evaluation of protein expression levels. Additionally, the concentration-dependent effect of HEEP was evaluated in terms of subacute toxicity and cytotoxicity.RESULTS Compared to the vehicle, HEEP demonstrated a great healing capacity by substantially reducing the ulcerative lesion area in males(52.44%), intact females(85.22%), and ovariectomized females(65.47%), confirming that HEEP accelerates the healing of acetic acidinduced gastric lesions and suggesting that this effect is modulated by female sex hormones. The antiulcer effect of HEEP was mediated by prostaglandin E2 only in male rats. Overall, the beneficial effect of HEEP was the highest in intact females. Notably, HEEP promoted the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(intact vs ovariectomized females) and decreased the expression of Caspase-8 and Bcl-2(intact female vs male or ovariectomized female). Additionally, HEEP enhanced fibroblast proliferation and migration into a wounded area in vitro, confirming its healing effect. Finally, no sign of subacute toxicity or cytotoxicity of HEEP was observed.CONCLUSION In gastric ulcers, HEEP-induced healing(modulated by female sex hormones; in males, mediated by prostaglandin) involves extracellular matrix remodeling, with gastric mucosa cell proliferation and migration. | Larissa Lucena Périco Vinícius Peixoto Rodrigues Rie Ohara Gabriela Bueno Vania Vasti Alfieri Nunes Raquel Cássia dos Santos Ana Carolina Lima Camargo Luis Antuio Justulin Joior Sérgio Faloni de Andrade Viviane Miranda Bispo Steimbach Luísa Mota da Silva Lúcia Regina Machado da Rocha Wagner Vilegas Catarina dos Santos Clélia Akiko Hiruma-Lima | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018，24，38： | 3 |
| 7 | Comparisons between glucose analogue 2-deoxy-2-(^(18)F)fluoro-D-glucose and ^(18)F-sodium fluoride positron emission tomography/computed tomography in breast cancer patients with bone lesions显示文摘AIM: To compare 2-deoxy-2-(^(18)F)fluoro-D-glucose(^(18)FFDG) and ^(18)F-sodium(^(18)F-NaF) positron emission tomography/computed tomography(PET/CT) accuracy in breast cancer patients with clinically/radiologically suspected or known bone metastases.METHODS: A total of 45 consecutive patients with breast cancer and the presence or clinical/biochemical or radiological suspicion of bone metastatic disease underwent ^(18)F-FDG and ^(18)F-fluoride PET/CT. Imaging results were compared with histopathology when available, or clinical and radiological follow-up of at least 1 year. For each technique we calculated: Sensitivity(Se), specificity(Sp), overall accuracy, positive and negative predictive values, error rate, and Youden's index. Mc Nemar's χ~2 test was used to test the difference in sensitivity and specificity between the two diagnostic methods. All analyses were computed on a patient basis, and then on a lesion basis, with consideration ofthe density of independent lesions on the coregistered CT(sclerotic, lytic, mixed, no-lesions) and the divergent site of disease(skull, spine, ribs, extremities, pelvis). The impact of adding ^(18)F-Na F PET/CT to the work-up of patients was also measured in terms of change in their management due to ^(18)F-Na F PET/CT findings. RESULTS: The two imaging methods of ^(18)F-FDG and ^(18)F-fluoride PET/CT were significantly different at the patient-based analysis: Accuracy was 86.7% and 84.4%, respectively(Mc Nemar's χ~2 = 6.23, df = 1, P = 0.01). Overall, 244 bone lesions were detected in our analysis. The overall accuracy of the two methods was significantly different at lesion-based analysis(Mc Nemar's χ~2 = 93.4, df = 1, P < 0.0001). In the lesion density-based and site-based analysis, ^(18)F-FDG PET/CT provided more accurate results in the detection of CT-negative metastasis(P < 0.002) and vertebral localizations(P < 0.002); ^(18)F-Na F PET/CT was more accurate in detecting sclerotic(P < 0.005) and rib lesions(P < 0.04). ^(18)F-Na F PET/CT led to a change of management in 3 of the 45 patients(6.6%) by revealing findings that were not detected at ^(18)F-FDG PET/CT. CONCLUSION: ^(18)F-FDG PET/CT is a reliable imaging tool in the detection of bone metastasis in most cases, with a diagnostic accuracy that is slightly, but significantly, superior to that of ^(18)F-Na F PET/CT in the general population of breast cancer patients. However, the extremely high sensitivity of ^(18)F-fluoride PET/CT can exploit its diagnostic potential in specific clinical settings(i.e., small CT-evident sclerotic lesions, high clinical suspicious of relapse, and negative ^(18)F-FDG PET and conventional imaging). | Selene Capitanio Francesca Bongioanni Arnoldo Piccardo Claudio Campus Roberta Gonella Lucia Tixi Mehrdad Naseri Michele Pennone Vania Altrinetti Ambra Buschiazzo Irene Bossert Francesco Fiz Andrea Bruno Andrea DeCensi Gianmario Sambuceti Silvia Morbelli | 2016 | World Journal of Radiology2016，8，2： | 3 |
| 8 | Chemical characterisation of particulate matter in urban transport modes显示文摘Traffic is a main source of air pollutants in urban areas and consequently daily peak exposures tend to occur during commuting.Personal exposure to particulate matter(PM)was monitored while cycling and travelling by bus,car and metro along an assigned route in Lisbon(Portugal),focusing on PM_(2.5) and PM_(1)0(PM with aerodynamic diameter<2.5 and 10μm,respectively)mass concentrations and their chemical composition.In vehicles,the indoor-outdoor interplay was also evaluated.The PM_(2.5) mean concentrations were 28±5,31±9,34±9 and 38±21μg/m 3 for bus,bicycle,car and metro modes,respectively.Black carbon concentrations when travelling by car were 1.4 to 2.0 times higher than in the other transport modes due to the closer proximity to exhaust emissions.There are marked differences in PM chemical composition depending on transport mode.In particular,Fe was the most abundant component of metro PM,derived from abrasion of rail-wheel-brake interfaces.Enhanced concentrations of Zn and Cu in cars and buses were related with brake and tyre wear particles,which can penetrate into the vehicles.In the motorised transport modes,Fe,Zn,Cu,Ni and K were correlated,evidencing their common traffic-related source.On average,the highest inhaled dose of PM_(2.5) was observed while cycling(55μg),and the lowest in car travels(17μg).Cyclists inhaled higher doses of PM_(2.5) due to both higher inhalation rates and longer journey times,with a clear enrichment in mineral elements.The presented results evidence the importance of considering the transport mode in exposure assessment studies. | Vania Martins Carolina Correia Ines Cunha-Lopes Tiago Faria Evangelia Diapouli Manousos Ioannis Manousakas Konstantinos Eleftheriadis Susana Marta Almeida | 2021 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2021，33，2： | 2 |
| 9 | Current trends of liver cirrhosis in Mexico: Similitudes and differences with other world regions显示文摘AIM To investigate the main current etiologies of cirrhosis in Mexico.METHODS We performed a cross-sectional retrospective multicenter study that included eight hospitals in different areas of Mexico. These hospitals provide health care to people of diverse social classes. The inclusion criteria were a histological, clinical, biochemical, endoscopic, or imaging diagnosis of liver cirrhosis. Data were obtained during a 5-year period(January 2012-December 2017). RESULTS A total of 1210 patients were included. The mean age was 62.5 years(SD = 12.1), and the percentages of men and women were similar(52.0% vs 48.0%). The most frequent causes of liver cirrhosis were hepatitis C virus(HCV)(36.2%), alcoholic liver disease(ALD)(31.2%), and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(23.2%), and the least frequent were hepatitis B virus(1.1%), autoimmune disorders(7.3%), and other conditions(1.0%).CONCLUSION HCV and ALD are the most frequent causes of cirrhosis in Mexico. However, we note that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) as an etiology of cirrhosis increased by 100% compared with the rate noted previously. We conclude that NAFLD will soon become one of the most frequent etiologies of liver cirrhosis in Mexico. | Nahum Méndez-Sánchez Felipe Zamarripa-Dorsey Arturo Panduro Emma Purón-González Edgar Ulises Coronado-Alejandro Carlos Alejandro Cortez-Hernández Fátima Higuera de la Tijera José Luis Pérez-Hernández Eira Cerda-Reyes Heriberto Rodríguez-Hernández Vania César Cruz-Ramón Oscar Lenin Ramírez-Pérez Nancy Edith Aguilar-Olivos Olga Fabiola Rodríguez-Martínez Samantha Cabrera-Palma Guillermo Cabrera-álvarez | 2018 | World Journal of Clinical Cases2018，6，15： | 2 |
| 10 | Furazolidone-based triple therapy for H pylori gastritis in children显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the furazolidone-based triple therapy in children with symptomatic H pylori gastritis.METHODS: A prospective and consecutive open trial was carried out. The study included 38 patients with upper digestive symptoms suffi ciently severe to warrant endoscopic investigation. H pylori status was defined based both on histology and on positive 13C-urea breath test. Drug regimen was a seven-day course of omeprazole, clarithromycin and furazolidone (100 mg, 200 mg if over 30 kg) twice daily. Eradication of H pylori was assessed two months after treatment by histology and 13C-urea breath test. Further clinical evaluation was performed 7 d, 2 and 6 mo after the treatment. RESULTS: Thirty-eight patients (24 females, 14 males) were included. Their age ranged from 4 to 17.8 (mean 10.9 ± 3.7) years. On intent-to-treat analysis (n = 38), the eradication rate of H pylori was 73.7% (95% CI, 65.2%-82%) whereas in per-protocol analysis (n = 33) it was 84.8% (95% CI, 78.5%-91%). All the patients with duodenal ulcer (n = 7) were successfully treated (100% vs 56.2% with antral nodularity). Side effects were reported in 26 patients (68.4%), mainly vomiting (14/26) and abdominal pain (n = 13). Successfully treated dyspeptic patients showed improvement in 78.9% of H pylori-negative patients after six months and in 50% of H pylori-positive patients after six months of treatment.CONCLUSION: Triple therapy with furazolidone achieves moderate effi cacy in H pylori treatment. The eradicationrate seems to be higher in patients with duodenal ulcer. | Elisabete Kawakami Rodrigo Strehl Machado Silvio Kazuo Ogata Marini Langner Erika Fukushima Anna Paula Carelli Vania Cláudia Guimares Bonucci Francy Reis Silva Patrício | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006，12，34： | 2 |
