| 2 | Relationship between cachexia and perineural invasion in pancreatic adenocarcinoma显示文摘BACKGROUND Cachexia is responsible for the low quality of life in pancreatic adenocarcinoma(PDAC).The rapid disease progression and patient deterioration seems related to perineural invasion,but the relationship between cachexia and perineural invasion for the evolution of the disease has been rarely studied.As perineural invasion is difficult to be highlighted,a biomarker such as the neurotrophic factor Midkine(MK)which promotes the neuronal differentiation and the cell migration could be helpful.Also,Activin(ACV)has been described as cachexia related to PDAC.However,their role for assessing and predicting the disease course in daily practice is not known.AIM To assess the relationship between perineural invasion and cachexia and their biomarkers,MK and ACV,respectively,and their prognostic value.METHODS This study included prospectively enrolled patients with proven adenocarcinoma and a matched group of controls without any malignancies.Patients with other causes of malnutrition were excluded.The plasma levels of ACV and MK were analyzed using western blotting and were correlated with the clinicopathological features and survival data.These results were validated by immunohistochemical analyses of the pancreatic tumor tissue of the patients included in the study and a supplementary group of surgically resected specimens from patients with a benign disease.RESULTS The study comprised 114 patients with PDAC,125 controls and a supplementary group of 14 benign pancreatic tissue samples.ACV and MK were both overexpressed more frequently in the plasma of patients with PDAC than in the controls(63% vs 32% for ACV,P<0.001;47%vs 16%for MK,P<0.001),with similar levels in pancreatic tissue the MK protein expression was closely related to the advanced clinical stage(P=0.006),the presence of metastasis(P=0.04),perineural invasion(P=0.03)and diabetes(P=0.002),but with no influence on survival.No correlation between clinicopathological factors and ACV expression was noted.Cachexia,present in 19%of patients,was unrelated to ACV or MK level.Higher ACV expression was associated with a shorter survival(P=0.008).CONCLUSION The MK was a biomarker of perineural invasion,associated with tumor stage and diabetes,but without prognostic value as ACV.Cachexia was unrelated to perineural invasion,ACV level or survival. | Livia Petrusel Ioana Rusu Daniel Corneliu Leucuta Radu Seicean Ramona Suharoschi Paula Zamfir Andrada Seicean | 2019 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Oncology2019,11,12: | 1 |
| 3 | Ten-year multicentric retrospective analysis regarding postoperative complications and impact of comorbidities in hemorrhoidal surgery with literature review显示文摘BACKGROUND Hemorrhoidal disease(HD)is considered a low-severity pathology by both general population and physicians,but the lengthy conservative therapy and postoperative complications suggest otherwise.AIM To assess the effectiveness of different treatment options,both conservative and surgical,in contrast with some preexisting comorbidities.METHODS We conducted a retrospective,10-yearlong study between January 2011 and December 2021 in two surgical centers,a private and a state-owned hospital.We compared the efficacy and safety of several treatment options,such as open hemorrhoidectomy,stapled hemorrhoidopexy,rubber band ligation and infrared coagulation in terms of complication rates and types and their correlation with different preexisting comorbidities such as inflammatory bowel disease(IBD),use of anticoagulant medication(AM)and liver cirrhosis.We also conducted a 20-years long PubMed research(1.263 articles)for relevant comparisons.RESULTS Our study recorded 10940 patients with HD,10241 with conservative and 699 with surgical treatment.Out of these,the male-to-female ratio of 1.3,and a peak in age distribution between 59 and 68 years old(32%of patients).For the entire study,we recorded a 90%incidence of immediate pain,immediate bleeding in 1.5%(11 cases),delayed bleeding in 1.0%(7 cases),and 0.6%surgical site infections.Urinary retention was also present,with 0.2%of patients,anal stricture in 1%and fecal incontinence for 0.5%of patients(4 cases).We recorded no severe complications such as Fournier`s gangrene or rectovaginal perforations.IBD accounted for 6%of the patients,with ulcerative colitis in 12%and Chron`s disease in 10.5%.6.6%of the patients had AM,determining 4%immediate and 2%delayed bleeding,in surgically treated patients.CONCLUSION Our study determined that most common complications(pain,urinary retention,bleeding,and stricture)are correlated with each surgical technique and pre-existing comorbidities. | Cosmin Moldovan Elena Rusu Daniel Cochior Madalina Elena Toba Horia Mocanu Razvan Adam Mirela Rimbu Adrian Ghenea Florin Savulescu Daniela Godoroja Florin Botea | 2023 | World Journal of Clinical Cases2023,11,2: | 0 |
