1Beyond the Pediatric end-stage liver disease system: Solutions for infants with biliary atresia requiring liver transplant显示文摘Biliary atresia(BA), a chronic progressive cholestatic disease of infants, is the leading cause for liver transplant in children, especially in patients under two years of age. BA can be successfully treated with the Kasai portoenterostomy; however most patients still require a liver transplant, with up to one half of BA children needing a transplant by age two. In the current pediatric end-stage liver disease system, children with BA face the risk of not receiving a liver in a safe and timely manner. In this review, we discuss a number of possible solutions to help these children. We focus on two general approaches:(1) preventing/delaying need for transplantation, by optimizing the success of the Kasai operation; and(2) expediting transplantation when needed, by performing techniques other than the standard deceased-donor, whole, ABO-matched organ transplant.Mary Elizabeth M Tessier Sanjiv Harpavat Ross W Shepherd Girish S Hiremath Mary L Brandt Amy Fisher John A Goss 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,32:14

3发达国家纵向整合临床实习模式的发展及其对我国医学教育的启示显示文摘临床实习是医学生将理论知识转化为临床能力和深入临床环境学习的重要途径。纵向整合临床实习模式目前是一种创新性的临床教学方法和理念,它将连续性作为教学原则,很好地解决了原有临床实习中缺乏医疗连续性、课程连续性和教学指导连续性的问题,越来越多的医学院应用此种模式进行临床教学改革。本文对该实习模式的核心内涵、意义和哈佛剑桥模式及其发展与衍变进行阐述,并结合中国医学教育的实际需求进行分析,认为纵向整合临床实习模式可以提高我国临床医生培养质量,促进基层医疗人才队伍建设,增强住院医师规范化培训效果,有助于我国医学教育改革发展。李鸿鹤 David A Hirsh Tara A Singh Yamini Saravanan Rachel Hathaway Bianca Shagrin Elizabeth Gaufberg Arundhati Ghosh 刘君 李扬龄 闻德亮 2020中华医学教育杂志2020,40,9:10
4Gastro-intestinal toxicity of chemotherapeutics in colorectal cancer:The role of inflammation显示文摘Chemotherapy-induced diarrhea(CID)is a common and often severe side effect experienced by colorectal cancer(CRC)patients during their treatment.As chemotherapy regimens evolve to include more efficacious agents,CID is increasingly becoming a major cause of dose limiting toxicity and merits further investigation.Inflammation is a key factor behind gastrointestinal(GI)toxicity of chemotherapy.Different chemotherapeutic agents activate a diverse range of pro-inflammatory pathways culminating in distinct histopathological changes in the small intestine and colonic mucosa.Here we review the current understanding of the mechanisms behind GI toxicity and the mucositis associated with systemic treatment of CRC.Insights into the inflammatory response activated during this process gained from various models of GI toxicity are discussed.The inflammatory processes contributing to the GI toxicity of chemotherapeutic agents are increasingly being recognised as having an important role in the development of anti-tumor immunity,thus conferring added benefit against tumor recurrence and improving patient survival.We review the basic mechanisms involved in the promotion of immunogenic cell death and its relevance in the treatment of colorectal cancer.Finally,the impact of CID on patient outcomes and therapeutic strategies to prevent or minimise the effect of GI toxicity and mucositis are discussed.Chun Seng Lee Elizabeth J Ryan Glen A Doherty 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,14:10
5Colorectal cancer in patients under 50 years of age:A retrospective analysis of two institutions' experience显示文摘AIM:To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of colorectal cancer(CRC)in patients under 50 years of age across two institutions.METHODS:Records of patients under age 50 years of age who had CRC surgery over a 16 year period were assessed at two institutions.The following documents where reviewed:admission notes,operative notes,and discharge summaries.The main study variables included:age,presenting symptoms,family history,tumor location,operation,stage/differentiation of disease,and post operative complications.Stage of disease was classified according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer TNM staging system:tumor depth;node status;and metastases.RESULTS:CRC was found in 180 patients under age50 years(87 females,93 males;mean age 41.4±6.2years).Young patients accounted for 11.2%of cases during a 6 year period for which the full data set wasavailable.Eight percent had a 1stdegree and 12%a 2nd degree family CRC history.Almost all patients(94%)were symptomatic at diagnosis;common symptoms included:bleeding(59%),obstruction(9%),and abdominal/rectal pain(35%).Evaluation was often delayed and bleeding frequently attributed to hemorrhoids.Advanced stage CRC(Stage 3 or 4)was noted in 53%of patients.Most tumors were distal to the splenic flexure(77%)and 39%involved the rectum.Most patients(95%)had segmental resections;6 patients had subtotal/total colectomy.Poorly differentiated tumors were noted in 12%and mucinous lesions in 19%of patients of which most had Stage 3 or 4 disease.Twenty-two patients(13%)developed recurrence and/or progression of disease to date.Three patients(ages 42,42and 49 years)went on to develop metachronous primary colon cancers within 3 to 4 years of their initial resection.CONCLUSION:CRC was common in young patients with no family history.Young patients with symptoms merit a timely evaluation to avoid presentation with late stage CRC.Elizabeth A Myers Daniel L Feingold Kenneth A Forde Tracey Arnell Joon Ho Jang Richard L Whelan 2013World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,34:9
6Genomic change in hepatitis B virus associated with development of hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM: To determine the genomic changes in hepatitis B virus(HBV) and evaluate their role in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) in patients chronically infected with genotype C HBV.METHODS: Two hundred and forty chronic hepatitis B(CHB) patients were subjected and followed for a median of 105 mo. HCC was diagnosed in accordance with AASLD guidelines. The whole X, S, basal core promoter(BCP), and precore regions of HBV were sequenced using the direct sequencing method.RESULTS: All of the subjects were infected with genotype C HBV. Out of 240 CHB patients, 25(10%) had C1653 T and 33(14%) had T1753 V mutation in X region; 157(65%) had A1762T/G1764 A mutations in BCP region, 50(21%) had G1896 A mutation in precore region and 67(28%) had pre-S deletions. HCC occurred in 6 patients(3%). The prevalence of T1753 V mutation was significantly higher in patients who developed HCC than in those without HCC. The cumulative occurrence rates of HCC were 5% and 19% at 10 and 15 years, respectively, in patients with T1753 V mutant, which were significantly higher than 1% and 1% in those with wild type HBV(P < 0.001).CONCLUSION: The presence of T1753 V mutation in HBV X-gene significantly increases the risk of HCC development in patients chronically infected with genotype C HBV.Danbi Lee Heather Lyu Young-Hwa Chung Jeong A Kim Priya Mathews Elizabeth Jaffee Lei Zheng Eunsil Yu Young Joo Lee Soo Hyung Ryu 2016World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,23:9

8Intensivist-based deep sedation using propofol for pediatric outpatient flexible bronchoscopy显示文摘AIM To evaluate the safety and efficacy of sedating pediatric patients for outpatient flexible bronchoscopy.METHODS A retrospective chart review was conducted for all children, age 17 years or under who underwent flexible bronchoscopy under deep sedation in an outpatient hospital-based setting. Two sedation regimens were used; propofol only or ketamine prior to propofol. Patients were divided into three age groups; infants(less than 12 mo), toddlers(1-3 years) and children(4-17 years). Demographics, indication for bronchoscopy, sedative dosing, sedation and recovery time and adverse events were reviewed.RESULTS Of the total 458 bronchoscopies performed, propofol only regimen was used in 337(74%) while propofol and ketamine was used in 121(26%). About 99% of the procedures were successfully completed. Children in the propofol + ketamine group tend to be youngerand have lower weight compared to the propofol only group. Adverse events including transient hypoxemia and hypotension occurred in 8% and 24% respectively. Median procedure time was 10 min while the median discharge time was 35 min. There were no differences in the indication of the procedure, propofol dose, procedure or recovery time in either sedative regimen. When compared to other age groups, infants had a higher incidence of hypoxemia.CONCLUSION Children can be effectively sedated for outpatient flexible bronchoscopy with high rate of success. This procedure should be performed under vigilance of highly trained providers.Kamal Abulebda Samer Abu-Sultaneh Sheikh Sohail Ahmed Elizabeth A S Moser Renee C McKinney Riad Lutfi 2017World Journal of Critical Care Medicine2017,6,4:8
9Characteristics of postintensive care syndrome in survivors of pediatric critical illness: A systematic review显示文摘AIM To synthesize the available evidence focusing on morbidities in pediatric survivors of critical illness that fall within the defined construct of postintensive care syndrome(PICS) in adults, including physical, neurocognitive and psychological morbidities.METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted in MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, Psyc INFO, and CINAHL using controlled vocabulary and key word terms to identify studies reporting characteristics of PICS in pediatric intensive care unit(PICU) patients. Two reviewers independently screened all titles and abstracts and performed data extraction. From the 3176 articles identified in the search, 252 abstracts were identified for full text review and nineteen were identified for inclusion in the review. All studies reporting characteristics of PICS in PICU patients were included in the final synthesis. RESULTS Nineteen studies meeting inclusion criteria published between 1995 and 2016 were identified and categorized into studies reporting morbidities in each of three categories-physical, neurocognitive and psychological. The majority of included articles reported prospective cohort studies, and there was significant variability in the outcome measures utilized. A synthesis of the studies indicate that morbidities encompassing PICS are well-described in children who have survived critical illness, often resolving over time. Risk factors for development of these morbidities include younger age, lower socioeconomic status, increased number of invasive procedures or interventions, type of illness, and increased benzodiazepine andnarcotic administration.CONCLUSION PICS-related morbidities impact a significant proportion of children discharged from PICUs. In order to further define PICS in children, more research is needed using standardized tools to better understand the scope and natural history of morbidities after hospital discharge. Improving our understanding of physical, neurocognitive, and psychological morbidities after critical illness in the pediatric population is imperative for designing interventions to improve long-term outcomes in PICU patients.Elizabeth A Herrup Beth Wieczorek Sapna R Kudchadkar 2017World Journal of Critical Care Medicine2017,6,2:7
10Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes in triple negative breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy显示文摘AIM To determine influence of neoadjuvant-chemotherapy(NAC) over tumor-infiltrating-lymphocytes(TIL) intriple-negative-breast-cancer(TNBC).METHODS TILs were evaluated in 98 TNBC cases who came to Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplasicas from 2005 to 2010. Immunohistochemistry staining for CD3, CD4, CD8 and FOXP3 was performed in tissue microarrays(TMA) sections. Evaluation of H/E in full-face and immunohistochemistry in TMA sections was performed in pre and post-NAC samples. STATA software was used and P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Higher TIL evaluated in full-face sections from pre-NAC tumors was associated to pathologic-complete-response(pCR)(P = 0.0251) and outcome(P = 0.0334). TIL evaluated in TMA sections showed low level of agreement with full-face sections(ICC = 0.017-0.20) and was not associated to pCR or outcome. TIL in post-NAC samples were not associated to response or outcome. PostNAC lesions with pC R had similar TIL levels than those without pCR(P = 0.6331). NAC produced a TIL decrease in full-face sections(P < 0.0001). Percentage of TIL subpopulations was correlated with their absolute counts. Higher counts of CD3, CD4, CD8 and FOXP3 in pre-NAC samples had longer disease-free-survival(DFS). Higher counts of CD3 in pre-NAC samples had longer overallsurvival. Higher ratio of CD8/CD4 counts in pre-NAC was associated with pCR. Higher ratio of CD4/FOXP3 counts in pre-NAC was associated with longer DFS. Higher counts of CD4 in post-NAC samples were associated with pCR.CONCLUSION TIL in pre-NAC full-face sections in TNBC are correlated to longer survival. TIL in full-face differ from TMA sections, absolute count and percentage analysis of TIL subpopulation closely related.Carlos A Castaneda Elizabeth Mittendorf Sandro Casavilca Yun Wu Miluska Castillo Patricia Arboleda Teresa Nunez Henry Guerra Carlos Barrionuevo Ketty Dolores-Cerna Carolina Belmar-Lopez Julio Abugattas Gabriela Calderon Miguel De La Cruz Manuel Cotrina Jorge Dunstan Henry L Gomez Tatiana Vidaurre 2016World Journal of Clinical Oncology2016,7,5:6
11Role of(~(18)F)2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography in upper gastrointestinal malignancies显示文摘The role of whole-body FDG [(~(18)F)2-fluoro-2-deoxy-glucose] positron emission tomography(PET)scan-ning as an imaging modality in the management of patients with malignancy has evolved enormously over the past two decades.FDG-PET has demonstrated signifi cant effi cacy in the staging,prognostication and detection of occult metastatic disease in malignancies of the gastrointestinal tract,in addition to assessment of the response to cytotoxic chemotherapy in a more timely manner than has traditionally been possible by more conventional imaging tools.The sensitivity and specif icity of FDG-PET for the detection and staging of malignancy depend not only on the site and size of the primary tumor and metastases,but also on histologi-cal cell type,reflecting underlying disparities in glucose metabolism.The metabolic response to neo-adjuvant chemotherapy or to chemo-radiotherapy in cancers of the gastro-esophageal junction or stomach has been demonstrated in several prospective studies to correlate signifi cantly with both the histological tumor response to treatment and with consequent improvements in overall survival.This may offer a future paradigm ofpersonalized treatment based on the PET response to chemotherapy.FDG-PET has been less successful in efforts to screen for and detect recurrent upper gastro-intestinal malignancies,and in the detection of low vol-ume metastatic peritoneal disease.Efforts to improve the accuracy of PET include the use of novel radiotrac-ers such as(~(18)F)FLT(3-deoxy-3-fluorothymidine)or 11C-choline,or fusion PET-CT with concurrent high-res-olution computed tomography.This review focuses on the role of FDG-PET scanning in staging and response assessment in malignancies of the upper gastrointesti-nal tract,specif ically gastric,esophageal and pancreas carcinoma.Elizabeth C Smyth Manish A Shah 2011World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,46:6
12Retrograde-viewing device improves adenoma detection rate in colonoscopies for surveillance and diagnostic workup显示文摘AIM:To determine which patients might benefit most from retrograde viewing during colonoscopy through subset analysis of randomized,controlled trial data.METHODS:The Third Eye Retroscope Randomized Clinical Evaluation(TERRACE) was a randomized,controlled,multicenter trial designed to evaluate the efficacy of a retrograde-viewing auxiliary imaging device that is used during colonoscopy to provide a second video image which allows viewing of areas on the proximal aspect of haustral folds and flexures that are difficult to see with the colonoscope's forward view.We performed a post-hoc analysis of the TERRACE data to determine whether certain subsets of the patient population would gain more benefit than others from use of the device.Subjects were patients scheduled for colonoscopy for screening,surveillance or diagnostic workup,and each underwent same-day tandem examinations with standard colonoscopy(SC) and Third Eye colonoscopy(TEC),randomized to SC followed by TEC or vice versa.RESULTS:Indication for colonoscopy was screening in 176/345 subjects(51.0%),surveillance after previous polypectomy in 87(25.2%) and diagnostic workup in 82(23.8%).In 4 subjects no indication was specified.Previously reported overall results had shown a net additional adenoma detection rate(ADR) with TEC of 23.2% compared to SC.Relative risk(RR) of missing adenomas with SC vs TEC as the initial procedure was 1.92(P = 0.029).Post-hoc subset analysis shows additional ADRs for TEC compared to SC were 4.4% for screening,35.7% for surveillance,55.4% for diagnostic and 40.7% for surveillance and diagnostic combined.The RR of missing adenomas with SC vs TEC was 1.11(P = 0.815) for screening,3.15(P = 0.014) for surveillance,8.64(P = 0.039) for diagnostic and 3.34(P = 0.003) for surveillance and diagnostic combined.Although a multivariate Poisson regression suggested gender as a possibly significant factor,subset analysis showed that the difference between genders was not statistically significant.Age,bowel prep quality and withdrawal time did not significantly affect the RR of missing adenomas with SC vs TEC.Mean sizes of adenomas detected with TEC and SC were similar at 0.59 cm and 0.56 cm,respectively(P = NS).CONCLUSION:TEC allows detection of significantly more adenomas compared to SC in patients undergoing surveillance or diagnostic workup,but not in screening patients(ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:NCT01044732).Peter D Siersema Amit Rastogi Anke M Leufkens Paul A Akerman Kassem Azzouzi Richard I Rothstein Frank P Vleggaar Alessandro Repici Giacomo Rando Patrick I Okolo Olivier Dewit Ana Ignjatovic Elizabeth Odstrcil James East Pierre H Deprez Brian P Saunders Anthony N Kalloo Bradley Creel Vikas Singh Anne Marie Lennon Daniel C DeMarco 2012World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,26:6
13Analyses of publicly available genomics resources define FGF-2-expressing bladder carcinomas as EMT-prone, proliferative tumors with low mutation rates and high expression of CTLA-4, PD-1 and PD-L1显示文摘Fibroblast growth factor 2(FGF-2)is overexpressed in a subset of invasive bladder carcinomas and its overexpression correlates with poor prognosis.Analyses of publicly available databases addressing the molecular mechanisms that may be responsible for the poor prognosis of these tumors,revealed that FGF-2 expression correlates positively with the expression of epithelial to mesenchymal transition(EMT)-promoting transcription factors and with changes in gene expression that are characteristic of EMT.The same analyses also revealed that FGF-2 correlates negatively with the expression,mutation and copy number variations of FGFR-3,all of which are associated with noninvasive bladder carcinomas.Finally,they showed that FGF-2 expression correlates with the expression of FGFR-1,the expression of the IIIc variant of FGFR-2 and with the expression of Akt3.The latter observation is significant because our earlier studies had shown that Akt3 regulates FGFR-2 alternative splicing,shifting the balance toward the IIIc relative to the IIIb FGFR-2 splice variant.As the IIIc variant is recognized by FGF-2,while the IIIb variant is not,we conclude that Akt3 may facilitate the FGF-2 response.FGF-2 is known to promote the expression of KDM2B,which functions in concert with EZH2 to repress the EZH2-targeting microRNA miR-101,activating a switch,which stably upregulates EZH2.The cancer genome atlas(TCGA)data showing a correlation between KDM2B and EZH2 expression and Oncomine data,showing a correlation between KDM2B and tumor progression,strongly support the role of the FGF-2/KDM2B/miR-101/EZH2 pathway in bladder cancer.These observations combined,suggest a model according to which FGF-2 induces EMT,cell proliferation and cancer stem cell self-renewal by coupling the Akt3 and KDM2B-controlled pathways outlined above,in bladder carcinomas.Further analyses of publicly available databases,revealed that FGF-2-expressing bladder carcinomas carry fewer genetic alterations and they tend to express high levels of CTLA-4,PD-1 and PD-L1,which suggests immune blockade by checkpoint activation.EMT,enhanced proliferation and immune checkpoint activation combined,may be responsible for the poor prognosis of FGF-2-expressing bladder carcinomas.Elizabeth A McNiel Philip N Tsichlis 2017Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy2017,2,1:6

16Effect of arsenic on tolerance mechanisms of two plant growth-promoting bacteria used as biological inoculants显示文摘Bacterial ability to colonize the rhizosphere of plants in arsenic(As) contaminated soils is highly important for symbiotic and free-living plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria(PGPR)used as inoculants, since they can contribute to enhance plant As tolerance and limit metalloid uptake by plants. The aim of this work was to study the effect of As on growth,exopolysaccharide(EPS) production, biofilm formation and motility of two strains used as soybean inoculants, Bradyrhizobium japonicum E109 and Azospirillum brasilense Az39. The metabolism of arsenate(As(V)) and arsenite(As(III)) and their removal and/or possible accumulation were also evaluated. The behavior of both bacteria under As treatment was compared and discussed in relation to their potential for colonizing plant rhizosphere with high content of the metalloid. B. japonicum E109 growth was reduced with As(III)concentration from 10 μM while A. brasilense Az39 showed a reduction of growth with As(III) from 500 μM. EPS and biofilm production increased significantly under 25 μM As(III)for both strains. Moreover, this was more notorious for Azospirillum under 500 μM As(III),where motility was seriously affected. Both bacterial strains showed a similar ability to reduce As(V). However, Azospirillum was able to oxidize more As(III)(around 53%) than Bradyrhizobium(17%). In addition, both strains accumulated As in cell biomass. The behavior of Azospirillum under As treatments suggests that this strain would be able to colonize efficiently As contaminated soils. In this way, inoculation with A. brasilense Az39 would positively contribute to promoting growth of different plant species under As treatment.Ana L.Armendariz Melina A.Talano Ana L.Wevar Oller María I.Medina Elizabeth Agostini 2015Journal of Environmental Sciences2015,27,7:3
17Pesticide food safety standards as companions to tolerances and maximum residue limits显示文摘Allowable levels for pesticide residues in foods,known as tolerances in the US and as maximum residue limits(MRLs) in much of the world,are widely yet inappropriately perceived as levels of safety concern. A novel approach to develop scientifically defensible levels of safety concern is presented and an example to determine acute and chronic pesticide food safety standard(PFSS) levels for the fungicide captan on strawberries is provided. Using this approach,the chronic PFSS level for captan on strawberries was determined to be 2 000 mg kg–1 and the acute PFSS level was determined to be 250 mg kg–1. Both levels are far above the existing tolerance and MRLs that commonly range from 3 to 20 mg kg–1,and provide evidence that captan residues detected at levels greater than the tolerance or MRLs are not of acute or chronic health concern even though they represent violative residues. The benefits of developing the PFSS approach to serve as a companion to existing tolerances/MRLs include a greater understanding concerning the health significance,if any,from exposure to violative pesticide residues. In addition,the PFSS approach can be universally applied to all potential pesticide residues on all food commodities,can be modified by specific jurisdictions to take into account differences in food consumption practices,and can help prioritize food residue monitoring by identifying the pesticide/commodity combinations of the greatest potential food safety concern and guiding development of field level analytical methods to detect pesticide residues on prioritized pesticide/commodity combinations.Carl K Winter Elizabeth A Jara 2015Journal of Integrative Agriculture2015,14,11:3
18Overview of extended release tacrolimus in solid organ transplantation显示文摘Tacrolimus(Prograf?, Astellas Pharma Europe Ltd, Staines, United Kingdom; referred to as tacrolimusBID) is an immunosuppressive agent to prevent and treat allograft rejection in kidney transplant recipients in combination with mycophenolate mofetil, corticosteroids,with or without basiliximab induction. The drug has also been studied in liver, heart and lung transplant; however, these are currently off-label indications. An extended release tacrolimus formulation(Advagraf?, Astagraf XL?) allows for once-daily dosing, with the potential to improve adherence. Extended release tacrolimus has similar absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion to tacrolimus-BID. Phase Ⅰ pharmacokinetic trials comparing extended release tacrolimus and tacrolimus-BID have demonstrated a decreased maximum concentration(C max) and delayed time to maximum concentration(t max) with the extended release formulation; however, AUC0-24 was comparable between formulations. Overall extended release tacrolimus has a very similar safety and efficacy profile to tacrolimus-BID. It is not recommended in the use of liver transplant patient's due to the increased risk of mortality in female recipients. There has been minimal data regarding the use of extended release tacrolimus in heart and lung transplant recipients. With the current data available for all organ groups the extended release tacrolimus should be dosed in a 1:1 fashion, the exception may be the cystic fibrosis population where their initial dose may need to be higher.Neha Patel Abigail Cook Elizabeth Greenhalgh Megan A Rech Joshua Rusinak Lynley Heinrich 2016World Journal of Transplantation2016,6,1:3
