| 1 | Drug-induced liver injury:Is it somehow foreseeable?显示文摘The classic view on the pathogenesis of drug-induced liver injury is that the so-called parent compounds are made hepatotoxic by metabolism (formation of neosubstances that react abnormally), mainly by cytochromes P-450 (CYP), with further pathways, such as mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis, also playing a role. Risk factors for drug-induced liver injury include concomitant hepatic diseases, age and genetic polymorphisms of CYP. However, some susceptibility can today be predicted before drug administration, working on the common substrate, by phenotyping and genotyping studies and by taking in consideration patients' health status. Physicians should always think of this adverse effect in the absence of other clear hepatic disease. Ethical and legal problems towards operators in the health care system are always matters to consider. | Giovanni Tarantino Matteo Nicola Dario Di Minno Domenico Capone | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,23: | 30 |
| 2 | Gastric cancer: Current status of lymph node dissection显示文摘D2 procedure has been accepted in Far East as the standard treatment for both early(EGC) and advanced gastric cancer(AGC) for many decades. Recently EGC has been successfully treated with endoscopy by endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection, when restricted or extended Gotoda's criteria can be applied and D1+ surgery is offered only to patients not fitted for less invasive treatment. Furthermore, two randomised controlled trials(RCTs) have been demonstrating the non inferiority of minimally invasive technique as compared to standard open surgery for the treatment of early cases and recently the feasibility of adequate D1+ dissection has been demonstrated also for the robot assisted technique. In case of AGC the debate on the extent of nodal dissection has been open for many decades. While D2 gastrectomy was performed as the standard procedure in eastern countries, mostly based on observational and retrospective studies, in the west the Medical Research Council(MRC), Dutch and Italian RCTs have been conducted to show a survival benefit of D2 over D1 with evidence based medicine. Unfortunately both the MRC and the Dutch trials failed to show a survival benefit after the D2 procedure, mostly due to the significant increase of postoperative morbidity and mortality, which was referred to splenopancreatectomy. Only 15 years after the conclusion of its accrual, the Dutch trial could report a significant decrease of recur-rence after D2 procedure. Recently the long term survival analysis of the Italian RCT could demonstrate a benefit for patients with positive nodes treated with D2 gastrectomy without splenopancreatectomy. As nowadays also in western countries D2 procedure can be done safely with pancreas preserving technique and without preventive splenectomy, it has been suggested in several national guidelines as the recommended procedure for patients with AGC. | Maurizio Degiuli Giovanni De Manzoni Alberto Di Leo Domenico D'Ugo Erica Galasso Daniele Marrelli Roberto Petrioli Karol Polom Franco Roviello Francesco Santullo Mario Morino | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,10: | 29 |
| 3 | Risk factors associated with pancreatic fistula after distal pancreatectomy, which technique of pancreatic stump closure is more beneficial?显示文摘AIM: To identify risk factors related to pancreatic fistula in patients undergoing distal pancreatectomy (DP) and to determine the effectiveness of using a stapled and a sutured closed of pancreatic stump. METHODS: Sixty-four patients underwent DP during a 10-year period. Information regarding diagnosis, operative details, and perioperative morbidity or mortality was collected. Eight risk factors were examined. RESULTS: Indications for DP included primary pancreatic disease (n = 38, 59%) and non-pancreatic malignancy (n = 26, 41%). Postoperative mortality and morbidity rates were 1.5% and 37% respectively; one patient died due to sepsis and two patients required a reoperation due to postoperative bleeding. Pancreatic fistula was developed in 14 patients (22%); 4 of fistulas were classified as Grade A, 9 as Grade B and only 1 as Grade C. Incidence of pancreatic fistula rate was significantly associated with four risk factors: pathology, use of prophylactic octreotide therapy, concomitant splenectomy, and texture of pancreatic parenchyma. The role that technique (either stapler or suture) of pancreatic stump closure plays in the development of pancreatic leak remains unclear. CONCLUSION: The pancreatic fistula rate after DP is 22%. This is reduced for patients with non-pancreatic malignancy, fibrotic pancreatic tissue, postoperative prophylactic octreotide therapy and concomitant splenectomy. | Marco Pericoli Ridolfini Sergio Alfieri Stavros Gourgiotis Dario Di Miceli Fabio Rotondi Giuseppe Quero Roberta Manghi Giovanni Battista Doglietto | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,38: | 24 |

| 5 | Endoscopic management of esophageal stenosis in children:New and traditional treatments显示文摘Post-esophageal atresia anastomotic strictures and postcorrosive esophagitis are the most frequent types of cicatricial esophageal stricture. Congenital esophageal stenosis has been reported to be a rare but typical disease in children; other pediatric conditions are peptic, eosinophilic esophagitis and dystrophic recessive epidermolysis bullosa strictures. The conservative treatment of esophageal stenosis and strictures(ES) rather than surgery is a well-known strategy for children. Before planning esophageal dilation, the esophageal morphology should be assessed in detail for its length, aspect, number and level, and different conservative strategies should be chosen accordingly. Endoscopic dilators and techniques that involve different adjuvant treatment strategies have been reported and depend on the stricture's etiology, the availability of different tools and the operator's experience and preferences. Balloon and semirigid dilators are the most frequently used tools. No high-quality studies have reported on the differences in the efficacies and rates of complications associated with these two types of dilators. There is no consensus in the literature regarding the frequency of dilations or the diameter that should be achieved. The use of adjuvant treatments has been reported in cases of recalcitrant stenosis or strictures with evidence of dysphagic symptoms. Corticosteroids(either systemically or locally injected), the local application of mitomycin C, diathermy and laser ES sectioning have been reported. Some authors have suggested that stenting can reduce both the number of dilations and the treatment length. In many cases, this strategy is effective when either metallic or plastic stents are utilized. Treatment complications, such esophageal perforations, can be conservatively managed, considering surgery only in cases with severe pleural cavity involvement. In cases of stricture relapse,even if such relapses occur following the execution of well-conducted conservative strategies, surgical stricture resection and anastomosis or esophageal substitution are the only remaining options. | Luigi Dall rsquo Oglio Tamara Caldaro Francesca Foschia Simona Faraci Giovanni Federici di Abriola Francesca Rea Erminia Romeo Filippo Torroni Giulia Angelino Paola De Angelis | 2016 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2016,8,4: | 16 |
| 6 | Computed tomography findings of pneumatosis and portomesenteric venous gas in acute bowel ischemia显示文摘AIM:To use more representative sample size to evaluate whether computed tomography(CT)scan evidence of the concomitant presence of pneumatosis and portomesenteric venous gas is a predictor of transmural bowel necrosis.METHODS:Data from 208 patients who were referred for a diagnosis of bowel ischemia were retrospectively reviewed.Only patients who underwent a surgical intervention following a diagnosis of bowel ischemia who also had a post-operative histological confirmation of such a diagnosis were included.Patients were split into two groups according to the presence of histological evidence of transmural bowel ischemia(case group)or partial bowel ischemia(control group).CT images were reviewed for findings of ischemia,including mural thickening,pneumatosis,bowel distension,portomesenteric venous gas and arterial or venous thrombi.RESULTS:A total of 248 subjects who underwent surgery for bowel ischemia were identified.Among the208 subjects enrolled in our study,transmural bowel necrosis was identified in 121 subjects(case group),and partial bowel necrosis was identified in 87 subjects(control group).Based on CT findings,including mural thickening,bowel distension,pneumatosis,pneumatosis plus portomesenteric venous gas and presence of thrombi or emboli,there were no significant differences between the case and control groups.The concomitant presence of pneumatosis and porto-mesenteric venous gas showed an odds ratio of 1.95(95%CI:0.491-7.775,P=0.342)for the presence of transmural necrosis.The presence of pneumatosis plus porto-mesenteric venous gas exhibited good specificity(83%)but low sensitivity(17%)in the identification of transmural bowel infarction.Accordingly,the positive and negative predictive values were 60% and 17%,respectively.CONCLUSION:Although pneumatosis plus porto-mesenteric venous gas is associated with bowel ischemia,we have demonstrated that their co-occurrence cannot be used as diagnostic signs of transmural necrosis. | Marco Milone Matteo Nicola Dario Di Minno Mario Musella Paola Maietta Vittorio Iaccarino Giovanni Barone Francesco Milone | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,39: | 15 |

| 8 | The enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry mission—eXTP显示文摘In this paper we present the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry mission—eXTP. eXTP is a space science mission designed to study fundamental physics under extreme conditions of density, gravity and magnetism. The mission aims at determining the equation of state of matter at supra-nuclear density, measuring effects of QED, and understanding the dynamics of matter in strong-field gravity. In addition to investigating fundamental physics, eXTP will be a very powerful observatory for astrophysics that will provide observations of unprecedented quality on a variety of galactic and extragalactic objects. In particular, its wide field monitoring capabilities will be highly instrumental to detect the electro-magnetic counterparts of gravitational wave sources.The paper provides a detailed description of:(1) the technological and technical aspects, and the expected performance of the instruments of the scientific payload;(2) the elements and functions of the mission, from the spacecraft to the ground segment. | ShuangNan Zhang Andrea Santangelo Marco Feroci YuPeng Xu FangJun Lu Yong Chen Hua Feng Shu Zhang Sφren Brandt Margarita Hernanz Luca Baldini Enrico Bozzo Riccardo Campana Alessandra De Rosa YongWei Dong Yuri Evangelista Vladimir Karas Norbert Meidinger Aline Meuris Kirpal Nandra Teng Pan Giovanni Pareschi Piotr Orleanski QiuShi Huang Stephane Schanne Giorgia Sironi Daniele Spiga Jiri Svoboda Gianpiero Tagliaferri Christoph Tenzer Andrea Vacchi Silvia Zane Dave Walton ZhanShan Wang Berend Winter Xin Wu Jean J.M.in't Zand Mahdi Ahangarianabhari Giovanni Ambrosi Filippo Ambrosino Marco Barbera Stefano Basso Jörg Bayer Ronaldo Bellazzini Pierluigi Bellutti Bruna Bertucci Giuseppe Bertuccio Giacomo Borghi XueLei Cao Franck Cadoux Francesco Ceraudo TianXiang Chen Yu Peng Chen Jerome Chevenez Marta Civitani Wei Cui WeiWei Cui Thomas Dauser Ettore Del Monte Sergio Di Cosimo Sebastian Diebold Victor Doroshenko Michal Dovciak YuanYuan Du Lorenzo Ducci QingMei Fan Yannick Favre Fabio Fuschino JoséLuis Ga'lvez Min Gao MingYu Ge Olivier Gevin Marco Grassi QuanYing Gu YuDong Gu DaWei Han Bin Hong Wei Hu Long Ji ShuMei Jia WeiChun Jiang Thomas Kennedy Ingo Kreykenbohm Irfan Kuvvetli Claudio Labanti Luca Latronico Gang Li MaoShun Li Xian Li Wei Li ZhengWei Li Olivier Limousin HongWei Liu XiaoJing Liu Bo Lu Tao Luo Daniele Macera Piero Malcovati Adrian Martindale Malgorzata Michalska Bin Meng Massimo Minuti Alfredo Morbidini Fabio Muleri Stephane Paltani Emanuele Perinati Antonino Picciotto Claudio Piemonte JinLu Qu Alexandre Rachevski Irina Rashevskaya Jerome Rodriguez Thomas Schanz ZhengXiang Shen LiZhi Sheng JiangBo Song LiMing Song Carmelo Sgro Liang Sun Ying Tan Phil Uttley Bo Wang DianLong Wang GuoFeng Wang Juan Wang LangPing Wang YuSa Wang Anna L.Watts XiangYang Wen Jörn Wilms ShaoLin Xiong JiaWei Yang Sheng Yang YanJi Yang Nian Yu WenDa Zhang Gianluigi Zampa Nicola Zampa Andrzej A.Zdziarski AiMei Zhang ChengMo Zhang Fan Zhang Long Zhang Tong Zhang Yi Zhang XiaoLi Zhang ZiLiang Zhang BaoSheng Zhao ShiJie Zheng Yu Peng Zhou Nicola Zorzi J.Frans Zwart | 2019 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2019,62,2: | 11 |
| 9 | Role of endoscopic ultrasonography in the loco-regional staging of patients with rectal cancer显示文摘The prognosis of rectal cancer(RC) is strictly related to both T and N stage of the disease at the time of diagnosis. RC staging is crucial for choosing the best multimodal therapy: patients with high risk locally advanced RC(LARC) undergo surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy(NAT); those with low risk LARC are operated on after a preoperative short-course radiation therapy; finally, surgery alone is recommended only for early RC. Several imaging methods are used for staging patients with RC: computerized tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography, and endoscopic ultrasound(EUS). EUS is highly accurate for the loco-regional staging of RC, since it is capable to evaluate precisely the mural infiltration of the tumor(T), especially in early RC. On the other hand, EUS is less accurate in restaging RC after NAT and before surgery. Finally, EUS is indicated for follow-up of patients operated on for RC, where there is a need for the surveillance of the anastomosis. The aim of this review is to highlight the impact of EUS on the management of patients with RC, evaluating its role in both preoperative staging and follow-up of patients after surgery. | Pietro Marone Mario de Bellis Valentina D'Angelo Paolo Delrio Valentina Passananti Elena Di Girolamo Giovanni Battista Rossi Daniela Rega Maura Claire Tracey Alfonso Mario Tempesta | 2015 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2015,7,7: | 11 |

| 11 | Dismicrobism in inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer: Changes in response of colocytes显示文摘Patients with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)have an increased risk of 10%-15%developing colorectal cancer(CRC)that is a common disease of high economic costs in developed countries.The CRC has been increasing in recent years and its mortality rates are very high.Multiple biological and biochemical factors are responsible for the onset and progression of this pathology.Moreover,it appears absolutely necessary to investigate the environmental factors favoring the onset of CRC and the promotion of colonic health.The gut microflora,or microbiota,has an extensive diversity both quantitatively and qualitatively.In utero,the intestine of the mammalian fetus is sterile.At birth,the intestinal microbiota is acquired by ingesting maternal anal or vaginal organisms,ultimately developing into a stable community,with marked variations in microbial composition between individuals.The development of IBD is often associated with qualitative and quantitative disorders of the intestinal microbial flora(dysbiosis).The healthy human gut harbours about10 different bacterial species distributed in colony forming units which colonize the gastrointestinal tract.The intestinal microbiota plays a fundamental role in health and in the progression of diseases such as IBD and CRC.In healthy subjects,the main control of intestinal bacterial colonization occurs through gastric acidity but other factors such as endoluminal temperature,competition between different bacterial strains,peristalsis and drugs can influence the intestinal microenvironment.The microbiota exerts diverse physiological functions to include:growth inhibition of pathogenic microorganisms,synthesis of compounds useful for the trophism of colonic mucosa,regulation of intestinal lymphoid tissue and synthesis of amino acids.Furthermore,mucus seems to play an important role in protecting the intestinal mucosa and maintaining its integrity.Changes in the microbiota composition are mainly influenced by diet and age,as well as genetic factors.Increasing evidence indicates that dysbiosis favors the production of genotoxins and metabolites associated with carcinogenesis and induces dysregulation of the immune response whichpromotes and sustains inflammation in IBD leading to carcinogenesis.A disequilibrium in gut microflora composition leads to the specific activation of gut associated lymphoid tissue.The associated chronic inflammatory process associated increases the risk of developing CRC.Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease are the two major IBDs characterized by an early onset and extraintestinal manifestations,such as rheumatoid arthritis.The pathogenesis of both diseases is complex and not yet fully known.However,it is widely accepted that an inappropriate immune response to microbial flora can play a pivotal role in IBD pathogenesis. | Giovanni Tomasello Pietro Tralongo Provvidenza Damiani Emanuele Sinagra Benedetto Di Trapani Marie Noelle Zeenny Inaya Hajj Hussein Abdo Jurjus Angelo Leone | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,48: | 10 |
| 12 | Clinical significance of hepatitis B surface antigen mutants显示文摘Hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection is a major public health problem in many countries, with nearly 300 million people worldwide carrying HBV chronic infection and over 1 million deaths per year due to cirrhosis and liver cancer. Several hepatitis B surface antigen(HBs Ag) mutations have been described, most frequently due to a single amino acid substitution and seldom to a nucleotide deletion. The majority of mutations are located in the S region, but they have also been found in the pre-S1 and pre-S2 regions. Single amino acid substitutions in the major hydrophilic region of HBs Ag, called the 'a' determinant, have been associated with immune escape and the consequent failure of HBV vaccination and HBs Ag detection, whereas deletions in the pre-S1 or pre-S2 regions have been associated with the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. This review article will focus on the HBs Ag mutants and their biological and clinical implications. | Nicola Coppola Lorenzo Onorato Carmine Minichini Giovanni Di Caprio Mario Starace Caterina Sagnelli Evangelista Sagnelli | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015,7,27: | 9 |
| 13 | Italian survey on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugsand gastrointestinal bleeding in children显示文摘AIM: To investigate gastrointestinal complications associated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug(NSAIDs) use in children.METHODS: A retrospective, multicenter study was conducted between January 2005 and January 2013, with the participation of 8 Italian pediatric gastroenterology centers. We collected all the cases of patients who refer to emergency room for suspected gastrointestinal bleeding following NSAIDs consumption, and underwent endoscopic evaluation. Previous medical history, associated risk factors, symptoms and signs at presentation, diagnostic procedures, severity of bleeding and management of gastrointestinal bleeding were collected. In addition, data regarding type of drug used, indication, dose, duration of treatment and prescriber(physician or selfmedication) were examined. RESULTS: Fifty-one patients, including 34 males, were enrolled(median age: 7.8 years). Ibuprofen was the most used NSAID [35/51 patients(68.6%)]. Pain was the most frequent indication for NSAIDs use [29/51 patients(56.9%)]. Seven patients had positive family history of Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection or peptic ulcer, and 12 had associated comorbidities. Twenty-four(47%) out of 51 patients used medication inappropriately. Hematemesis was the most frequent symptom(33.3%). Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed gastric lesions in 32/51(62%) patients, duodenal lesions in 17(33%) and esophageal lesions in 8(15%). In 10/51(19.6%) patients, a diagnosis of H. pylori gastritis was made. Forty-eight(94%) patients underwent medical therapy, with spontaneous bleeding resolution, while in 3/51(6%) patients, an endoscopic hemostasis was needed.CONCLUSION: The data collected in this study confirms that adverse events with the involvement of the gastrointestinal tract secondary to NSAID use are also common in | Sabrina Cardile Massimo Martinelli Arrigo Barabino Paolo Gandullia Salvatore Oliva Giovanni Di Nardo Luigi Dall'Oglio Francesca Rea Gian Luigi de'Angelis Barbara Bizzarri Graziella Guariso Enzo Masci Annamaria Staiano Erasmo Miele Claudio Romano | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,5: | 7 |
| 14 | A pediatric non-protein losing Menetrier's disease successfully treated with octreotide long acting release显示文摘Pediatric Menetrier's disease (MD) is an uncommon, acute, self-limited hypertrophic gastropathy characterized by enlarged gastric folds associated with epithelial hyperplasia and usually accompanied by protein losing gastropathy. Gastric cytomegalovirus infection is found in one third of MD children and its treatment is often associated with remission. Diagnosis often requires fullthickness biopsy due to inability to detect typical histological findings with conventional endoscopic biopsy. We report an uncommon case of non self-limited pediatric MD needing endoscopic mucosal resection for diagnosis which was then successfully treated with octreotide long-acting release (LAR). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first pediatric MD case successfully treated with octreotide LAR. Our experience suggests octreotide LAR as treatment for refractory MD before gastrectomy. | Giovanni Di Nardo Salvatore Oliva Marina Aloi Federica Ferrari Simone Frediani Adriana Marcheggiano Salvatore Cucchiara | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,21: | 6 |
| 15 | Capsule endoscopy in pediatrics: A 10-years journey显示文摘Video capsule endoscopy(CE) for evaluation the esophagus(ECE), small bowel(SBCE) and the colon(CCE) is particularly useful in pediatrics, because this imaging modality does not require ionizing radiation, deep sedation or general anesthesia. The risk of capsule retention appears to be dependent on indication rather than age and parallels the adult experience by indication, making SBCE a relatively safe procedure with a significant diagnostic yield. The newest indication, assessment of mucosal change, greatly enhances and expands its potential benefit. The diagnostic role of CE extends beyond the SB. The use of ECE also may enhance our knowledge of esophageal disease and assist patient care. Colon CCE is a novel minimally invasive and painless endoscopic technique allowing exploration of the colon without need for sedation, rectal intubation and gas insufflation. The limited data on ECE and CCE in pediatrics does not yet allow the same conclusions regarding efficacy; however, both appear to provide safe methods to assess and monitor mucosal change in their respective areas with little discomfort. Moreover, although experience has been limited, the patency capsule may help lessen the potential of capsule retention; and newly researched protocols for bowel cleaning may further enhance CE's diagnostic yield. However, further research is needed to optimize the use of the various CE procedures in pediatric populations. | Salvatore Oliva Stanley A Cohen Giovanni Di Nardo Gianfranco Gualdi Salvatore Cucchiara Emanuele Casciani | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,44: | 6 |
| 16 | Ceruloplasmin-ferroportin system of iron traffic in vertebrates显示文摘Safe trafficking of iron across the cell membrane is a delicate process that requires specific protein carriers. While many proteins involved in iron uptake by cells are known, only one cellular iron export protein has been identified in mammals: ferroportin(SLC40A1). Ceruloplasmin is a multicopper enzyme endowed with ferroxidase activity that is found as a soluble isoform in plasma or as a membrane-associated isoform in specific cell types. According to the currently accepted view, ferrous iron transported out of the cell by ferroportin would be safely oxidized by ceruloplasmin to facilitate loading on transferrin. Therefore, the ceruloplasminferroportin system represents the main pathway for cellular iron egress and it is responsible for physiological regulation of cellular iron levels. The most recent findings regarding the structural and functional features of ceruloplasmin and ferroportin and their relationship will be described in this review. | Giovanni Musci Fabio Polticelli Maria Carmela Bonaccorsi di Patti | 2014 | World Journal of Biological Chemistry2014,5,2: | 6 |
| 17 | Cystic echinococcosis of the liver and lung treated by radiofrequency thermal ablation:An ex-vivo pilot experimental study in animal models显示文摘AIM:To evaluate radiofrequency thermal ablation (RTA) for treatment of cystic echinococcosis in animal models (explanted organs).METHODS:Infected livers and lungs from slaughtered animals,10 bovine and two ovine,were collected.Cysts were photographed,and their volume,cyst content,germinal layer adhesion status,wall calcification and presence of daughter or adjacent cysts were evaluated by ultrasound.Some cysts were treated with RTA at 150 W,80℃,7 min.Temperature was monitored inside and outside the cyst.A second needle was placed inside the cyst for pressure stabilization.After treatment,all cysts were sectioned and examined by histology.Cysts were defined as alive if a preserved germinal layer at histology was evident,and as successfully treated if the germinal layer was necrotic.RESULTS:The subjects of the study were 17 cysts (nine hepatic and eight pulmonary),who were treated with RTA.Pathology showed 100% success rate in both hepatic (9/9) and lung cysts (8/8);immediate volume reduction of at least 65%;layer of host tissue necrosis outside the cyst,with average extension of 0.64 cm for liver and 1.57 cm for lung;and endocyst attached to the pericystium both in hepatic and lung cysts with small and focal de novo endocyst detachment in just 3/9 hepatic cysts.CONCLUSION:RTA appears to be very effective in killing hydatid cysts of explanted liver and lung.Bile duct and bronchial wall necrosis,persistence of endocyst attached to pericystium,should help avoid or greatly decrease in vivo post-treatment fistula occurrence and consequent overlapping complications that are common after surgery or percutaneous aspiration,injection and reaspiration.In vivo studies are required to confirm and validate this new therapeutic approach. | Vincenzo Lamonaca Antonino Virga Marta Ida Minervini Roberta Di Stefano Alessio Provenzani Pietro Tagliareni Giovanna Fleres Angelo Luca Giovanni Vizzini Ugo Palazzo Bruno Gridelli | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,26: | 6 |
| 18 | H pylori status and angiogenesis factors in human gastric carcinoma显示文摘AIM: To investigate H pylori expression in gastric cancer patients in relation to primary tumor angiogenic markers, such as microvessel density (MVD), thymidine phospho- rylase (TP), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (VEGF-R1), p53 and circulating VEGF levels. METHODS: Angiogenic markers were analyzed immu- nohistochemically in 56 primary gastric cancers. H pylori cytotoxin (vacA) and the cytotoxin-associated gene (cagA) amplification were evaluated using PCR assay. Serum H pylori IgG antibodies and serum/plasma circulating VEGF levels were detected in 39 and 38 patients by ELI- SA, respectively. RESULTS: A total of 69% of patients were positive for circulating IgG antibodies against H pylori. cagA-positive H pylori strains were found in 41% of gastric patients. vacA was found in 50% of patients; s1 strains were more highly expressed among vacA-positive patients. The presence of the s1 strain was signifi cantly associ- ated with cagA (P = 0.0001). MVD was signifi cantly cor- related with both tumor VEGF expression (r = 0.361, P = 0.009) and serum VEGF levels (r = -0.347, P = 0.041).Conversely, neither VEGF-R1 expression nor MVD was related to p53 expression. However, H pylori was not related to any angiogenic markers except for the plasma VEGF level (P = 0.026). CONCLUSION: H pylori antigen is related to higher plasma VEGF levels, but not to angiogenic character- istics. It can be hypothesized that the toxic effects of H pylori on angiogenesis occurs in early preclinical dis- ease phase or in long-lasting aggressive infections, but only when high H pylori IgG levels are persistent. | Anita Mangia Annalisa Chiriatti Girolamo Ranieri Ines Abbate Maria Coviello Giovanni Simone Francesco Alfredo Zito Severino Montemurro Antonello Rucci Alfredo Di Leo Stefania Tommasi Pasquale Berloco Jian Ming Xu Angelo Paradiso | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,34: | 5 |

METHODS We conducted a prospective two-center diagnostic test accuracy study. We enrolled consecutive people≥ 18 years without previous diagnosis of H. pylori infection, referred for dyspepsia between February and October 2017. At enrollment, all participants underwent 13 C-urea breath test. Participants aged over 50 years were scheduled to undergo upper endoscopy with histology. Participants collected stool samples 1-3 d after enrollment for a new fecal investigation(THD fecal test). The detection of bacterial 23 S rRNA subunit gene indicated H. pylori infection. We also used the index diagnostic test to examine mutations conferring resistance to clarithromycin and levofloxacin. Independent investigators analyzed index test and reference test standard results blinded to the other test findings. We estimated sensitivity, specificity, positive(PPV) and negative(NPV) predictive value, diagnostic accuracy, positive and negative likelihood ratio(LR), together with 95% confidence intervals(CI).RESULTS We enrolled 294 consecutive participants(age: Median 37.0 years, IQR: 29.0-46.0 years; men: 39.8%). Ninetyfive(32.3%) participants had a positive ^(13)C-urea breath test. Twenty-three(7.8%) participants underwent upper endoscopy with histology, with a full concordance between ^(13)C-urea breath test and histology in detecting H. pylori infection. Four(1.4%) out of the 294 participants withdrew from the study after the enrollment visit and did not undergo THD fecal testing. In the 290 participants who completed the study, the THD fecal test sensitivity was 90.2%(CI: 84.2%-96.3%), specificity 98.5%(CI:96.8%-100%), PPV 96.5%(CI: 92.6%-100%), NPV 95.6%(CI: 92.8%-98.4%), accuracy 95.9%(CI: 93.6%-98.2%), positive LR 59.5(CI: 19.3-183.4), negative LR 0.10(CI: 0.05-0.18). Out of 83 infected participants identified with the THD fecal test, 34(41.0%) had bacterial genotypic changes consistent with antibiotic-resistant H. pylori infection. Of these, 27(32.5%) had bacterial strains resistant to clarithromycin, 3(3.6%) to levofloxacin, and 4(4.8%) to both antibiotics. CONCLUSION The THD fecal test has high performance for the non-invasive diagnosis of H. pylori infection while additionally enabling the assessment of bacterial antibiotic resistances. | Andrea Iannone Floriana Giorgio Francesco Russo Giuseppe Riezzo Bruna Girardi Maria Pricci Suetonia C Palmer Michele Barone Mariabeatrice Principi Giovanni FM Strippoli Alfredo Di Leo Enzo Ierardi | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,27: | 5 |
| 20 | Does Helicobacter pylori infection eradication modify peptic ulcer prevalence? A 10 years' endoscopical survey显示文摘瞄准:为了在病人比较消化性溃疡流行,在根除治疗的进步散开以后在 pre-Helicobacter 时代和十年在二所意大利的医院里为上面的胃肠的内视镜检查法参考了。方法:我们检查了连续地在 1992 和 2002 期间在 1986-1987 和 1995-1996 期间在 Padova 的肠胃病学单位,并且在 Parma 的肠胃病学单位执行的所有内视镜的考试。迟平方测试被用于统计分析。结果:从两个的数据内视镜的中心在溃疡的流行显示出统计上重要的减少:从 12.7% ~ 6.3%(P<0.001 ) 在 Padova 并且从 15.6% ~ 12%(P<0.001 ) 在 Parma。减少两个都是重要的为十二指肠(从 8.8% ~ 4.8% , P<0.001 ) 并且胃溃疡(3.9% ~ 1.5% , P<0.001 ) 在 Padova,并且仅仅为在 Parma 的十二指肠溃疡(9.2% ~ 6.1% , P<0.001;胃溃疡:6.3% ~ 5.8% , NS ) 。结论:在征兆的病人的根除在消化性溃疡流行导致了重要减小的广泛的 Helicobacter pylori (H pylori ) 的十年。这减小在 Padova 是特别地明显的,在为在一般 practioners 之中的 H pylori 根除的致敏的一个工程在 1990 和 1992 之间被执行的地方。假如我们的假设应该是真的, H pylori 根除可能在未来导致是的消化性溃疡一稀罕内视镜的发现。 | Giorgio Nervi Stefania Liatopoulou Lucas Giovanni Cavallaro Alessandro Gnocchi Nadia Dal Bò Massimo Rugge Veronica Iori Giulia Martina Cavestro Marta Maino Giancarlo Colla Angelo Franzè Francesco Di Mario | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,15: | 5 |
