| 1 | Risk factors affecting pancreatic fistulas after pancreaticoduodenectomy显示文摘AIM: To analyze the risk factors of pancreatic leakage after pancreaticoduodenectomy.METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 172 consecutive patients who had undergone pancreatico-duodenectomy at Inha University Hospital between April 1996 and March 2006. We analyzed the pancreatic fistula rate according to the clinical characteristics, the pathologic and laboratory findings, and the anastomotic methods.RESULTS: The incidence of developing pancreatic fistulas in patients older than 60 years of age was 21.7% (25/115), while the incidence was 8.8% (5/57) for younger patients; the difference was significant (P = 0.03). Patients with a dilated pancreatic duct had a lower rate of post-operative pancreatic fistulas than patients with a non-dilated duct (P = 0.001). Other factors, including clinical features, anastomotic methods, and pathologic diagnosis, did not show any statistical difference. CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrated that pancreatic fistulas are related to age and a dilated pancreatic duct. The surgeon must take these risk factors into consideration when performing a pancre-aticoduodenectomy. | Yun-Mee Choe Keon-Young Lee Cheong-Ah Oh Joung-Bum Lee Sun Keun Choi Yoon-Seok Hur Sei-Joong Kim Young Up Cho Seung-Ik Ahn Kee-Chun Hong Seok-Hwan Shin Kyung-Rae Kim | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,45: | 32 |
| 2 | Efficacy and safety of 0.4 percent sodium hyaluronate for endoscopic submucosal dissection of gastric neoplasms显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sodium hyaluronate solution(SH) in endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) of gastric neoplasms.METHODS:A prospective multicenter randomized,double blind,controlled trial was designed and utilized in this study.A total of 76 patients with 5-20 mm sized gastric neoplasms were enrolled at three academic hospitals in South Korea from June 2011 to October 2011.Patients were randomly assigned to the 0.4% sodium hyaluronate or control groups.All lesions underwent endoscopic ESD.ESD was performed with 0.4%SH and normal saline(NS) solution for submucosal injection.Efficacy was assessed using en bloc resection and the number of additional injections.Secondary evaluation variables were the volume of injection material,steepness of mucosal elevation,bleeding rate,procedural time and operator satisfaction.Finally,the safety was assessed by analyzing adverse events during the study.RESULTS:The usefulness rate in the 0.4%SH group and the controlled group had statistically significant difference under intention to treat(ITT) analysis(90.91% vs 61.11% P = 0.0041).Under per protocol(PP),the usefulness rate is statistically significant different(93.10% vs 61.76%,P = 0.0036).The difference in volume of the solution injected between 0.4%SH group and the controlled group and NS group was also statistically significant under intention to treat and per protocol analysis(ITT:0.03 ± 0.02 mL vs 0.06 ± 0.03 mL,P = 0.0003,PP:0.03 ± 0.02 mL vs 0.06 ± 0.03 mL,P = 0.0004).Satisfaction above the grade good was significantly higher in the SH group under intention to treat and per protocol analysis(ITT:90.91% vs 61.11%,P = 0.0041,PP = 93.11% vs 61.77%,P = 0.0022).Adverse events above grade 3 were not noticed in either group.All adverse events were treated and were judged as not associated with the submucosal injection solutions.CONCLUSION:0.4%SH solution is a safe and effective agent that doesn't cause any significant adverse events and is useful for submucosal injection during ESD. | Young Dae Kim Jun Lee Ju Yeon Cho Seok Won Kim Seong Hwan Kim Young Kwan Cho Jin Seok Jang Ji Sun Han Joo Young Cho | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,20: | 26 |

| 4 | Clinical characteristics of incidental or unsuspected gallbladder cancers diagnosed during or after cholecystectomy: A systematic review and meta-analysis显示文摘AIM: To perform a systematic review of incidental or unsuspected gallbladder(GB) cancer diagnosed during or after cholecystectomy. METHODS: Data in Pub Med, EMBASE, and CochraneLibrary were reviewed and 26 publications were included in the meta-analysis. The inclusion criterion for incidental GB cancer was GB cancer diagnosed during or after cholecystectomy that was not suspected at a preoperative stage. Pooled proportions of the incidence, distribution of T stage, and revisional surgery of incidental GB cancer were analyzed.RESULTS: The final pooled population comprised 2145 patients with incidental GB cancers. Incidental GB cancers were found in 0.7% of cholecystectomies p e r f o r m e d f o r b e n i g n g a l l b l a d d e r d i s e a s e s o n preoperative diagnosis(95%CI: 0.004-0.012). Nearly 50% of the incidental GB cancers were stage T2 with a pooled proportion of 47.0%(95%CI: 0.421-0.519). T1 and T3 GB cancers were found at a similar frequency, with pooled proportions of 23.0%(95%CI: 0.178-0.291) and 25.1%(95%CI: 0.195-0.317), respectively. The pooled proportion that completed revisional surgery for curative intent was 40.9%(95%CI: 0.329-0.494). The proportion of patients with unresectable disease upon revisional surgery was 23.0%(95%CI: 0.177-0.294). CONCLUSION: A large proportion of incidental GB cancers were T2 and T3 lesions. Revisional surgery for radical cholecystectomy is warranted in T2 and more advanced cancers. | Kui Sun Choi Sae Byeol Choi Pyoungjae Park Wan Bae Kim Sang Yong Choi | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,4: | 24 |
| 5 | Survival outcome of patients with spontaneously ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma treated surgically or by transarterial embolization显示文摘AIM: To evaluate clinical outcomes of patients that underwent surgery, transarterial embolization (TAE), or supportive care for spontaneously ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: A consecutive 54 patients who diagnosed as spontaneously ruptured HCC at our institution between 2003 and 2012 were retrospectively enrolled. HCC was diagnosed based on the diagnostic guidelines issued by the 2005 American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases. HCC rupture was defined as disruption of the peritumoral liver capsule with enhanced fluid collection in the perihepatic area adjacent to the HCC by dynamic liver computed tomography, and when abdominal paracentesis showed an ascitic red blood cell count of > 50000 mm 3 /mL in bloody fluid. RESULTS: Of the 54 patients, 6 (11.1%) underwent surgery, 25 (46.3%) TAE, and 23 (42.6%) supportive care. The 2-, 4and 6-mo cumulative survival rates at 2, 4 and 6 mo were significantly higher in the surgery (60%, 60% and 60%) or TAE (36%, 20% and 20%) groups than in the supportive care group (8.7%, 0% and 0%), respectively (each, P < 0.01), and tended to be higher in the surgical group than in the TAE group. Multivariate analysis showed that serum bilirubin (HR = 1.09, P < 0.01), creatinine (HR = 1.46, P = 0.04), and vasopressor requirement (HR = 2.37, P = 0.02) were significantly associated with post-treatment mortality, whereas surgery (HR = 0.41, P < 0.01), and TAE (HR = 0.13, P = 0.01) were inversely associated with posttreatment mortality. CONCLUSION: Post-treatment survival after surgery or TAE was found to be better than after supportive care, and surgery tended to provide better survival benefit than TAE. | Young-Joo Jin Jin-Woo Lee Seoung-Wook Park Jung Il Lee Don Haeng Lee Young Soo Kim Soon Gu Cho Yong Sun Jeon Kun Young Lee Seung-Ik Ahn | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,28: | 23 |

| 7 | International consensus statement on robotic hepatectomy surgery in 2018显示文摘The robotic surgical system has been applied in liver surgery. However,controversies concerns exist regarding a variety of factors including the safety,feasibility, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness of robotic surgery. To promote the development of robotic hepatectomy, this study aimed to evaluate the current status of robotic hepatectomy and provide sixty experts' consensus and recommendations to promote its development. Based on the World Health Organization Handbook for Guideline Development, a Consensus Steering Group and a Consensus Development Group were established to determine the topics, prepare evidence-based documents, and generate recommendations. The GRADE Grid method and Delphi vote were used to formulate the recommendations. A total of 22 topics were prepared analyzed and widely discussed during the 4 meetings. Based on the published articles and expert panel opinion, 7 recommendations were generated by the GRADE method using an evidence-based method, which focused on the safety, feasibility, indication,techniques and cost-effectiveness of hepatectomy. Given that the current evidences were low to very low as evaluated by the GRADE method, further randomized-controlled trials are needed in the future to validate these recommendations. | Rong Liu Go Wakabayashi Hong-Jin Kim Gi-Hong Choi Anusak Yiengpruksawan Yuman Fong Jin He Ugo Boggi Roberto I Troisi Mikhail Efanov Daniel Azoulay Fabrizio Panaro Patrick Pessaux Xiao-Ying Wang Ji-Ye Zhu Shao-Geng Zhang Chuan-Dong Sun Zheng Wu Kai-Shan Tao Ke-Hu Yang Jia Fan Xiao-Ping Chen | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,12: | 23 |
| 8 | Eosinophilic gastroenteritis presenting as small bowel obstruction: A case report and review of the literature显示文摘Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is a rare disease of unknown etiology. It is characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the bowel wall to a variable depth and symptoms associated with gastrointestinal tract. Recently, the authors experienced a case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis presenting as small bowel obstruction. A 51-year old woman was admitted to our hospital complaining of abdominal pain and vomiting. Physical examination revealed a distended abdomen with diffuse tenderness. Complete blood count showed mild leukocytosis without eosinophilia. Computed tomography confirmed a dilatation of the small intestine with ascites. An emergency laparotomy was performed for a diagnosis of peritonitis due to intestinal obstruction. Segmental resection of the ileum and end to end anastomosis were performed. Histologically, there was a dense infiltration of eosinophils throughout the entire thickness of ileal wall and eosinophilic enteritis was diagnosed. The patient recovered well, and was free from gastrointestinal symptoms at the time when we reported her disease. | Min Young Yun Young Up Cho In Suh Park Sun Keun Choi Sei Joong Kim Seok Hwan Shin Kyung Rae Kim | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,11: | 19 |
| 9 | Overexpression of the M2 isoform of pyruvate kinase is an adverse prognostic factor for signet ring cell gastric cancer显示文摘AIM:To investigate M2 isoform of pyruvate kinase(PKM2) expression in gastric cancers and evaluate its potential as a prognostic biomarker and an anticancer target.METHODS:All tissue samples were derived from gastric cancer patients underwent curative gastrectomy as a primary treatment.Clinical and pathological information were obtained from the medical records.Gene expression microarray data from 60 cancer and 19 noncancer gastric tissues were analyzed to evaluate the expression level of PKM2 mRNA.Tissue microarrays were constructed from 368 gastric cancer patients.Immunohistochemistry was used to measure PKM2 expression and PKM2 positivity of cancer was determined by proportion of PKM2-positive tumor cells and staining intensity.Association between PKM2 expression and the clinicopathological factors was evaluated and the correlation between PKM2 and cancer prognosis was evaluated.RESULTS:PKM2 mRNA levels were increased more than 2-fold in primary gastric cancers compared to adjacent normal tissues from the same patients(log transformed expression level:7.6 ± 0.65 vs 6.3 ± 0.51,P < 0.001).Moreover,differentiated type cancers had significantly higher PKM2 mRNA compared to undifferentiated type cancers(log transformed expression level:7.8 ± 0.70 vs 6.7 ± 0.71,P < 0.001).PKM2 protein was mainly localized in the cytoplasm of primary cancer cells and detected in 144 of 368(39.1%) human gastric cancer cases.PKM2 expression was not related with stage(P = 0.811),but strongly correlated with gastric cancer differentiation(P < 0.001).Differentiated type cancers expressed more PKM2 protein than did the undifferentiated ones.Well differentiated adenocarcinoma showed 63.6% PKM2-positive cells;in contrast,signet-ring cell cancers showed only 17.7% PKM2-positive cells.Importantly,PKM2 expression was correlated with shorter overall survival(P < 0.05) independent of stage only in signet-ring cell cancers.CONCLUSION:PKM2 expression might be an adverse prognostic factor for signet-ring cell carcinomas.Its function and potential as a prognostic marker should be further verified in gastric cancer. | Jae Yun Lim Sun Och Yoon So Young Seol Soon Won Hong Jong Won Kim Seung Ho Choi Jae Yong Cho | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,30: | 19 |
| 10 | Aerobic exercise improves gastrointestinal motility in psychiatric inpatients显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the benefit of aerobic exercise on colonic transit time(CTT)for psychiatric inpatients in a closed ward.METHODS:Sixty consecutive adult inpatients of the Somang Hospital Psychiatry Unit(Eumsung-gun,South Korea),without CTT-related diseases or drug therapies,were recruited for study from March to June of 2012.Upon enrollment,the patients were randomly assigned to partake in a 12-wk instructor-led group aerobic exercise program(exercise group;n=30)or to maintain their ordinary daily activities(control group;n=30).The exercise program was structured as 10 min warm-up(stretching),40 min exercise,and 10 min cool-down(stretching)for three days each week.The exercise sessions consisted of walking only in week one and aerobics from weeks two to 12,with increasing intensity(50%heart rate reserve(HRR)for weeks one to four,60%HRR for weeks five to eight,and 70%HRR for weeks nine to 12).CTT was measured before(baseline)and after(week 12)the exercise program,in duplicate(on days four and seven),using abdominal radiography and the multiple radio-opaque marker technique.Changes in the exercising patients’CTT and weight-,cardiovascular-and fitness-related parameters were statistically assessed.RESULTS:The study dropout rate was 30.0%,with 23patients in the exercise group and 19 patients in the control group completing the study.At week 12,the exercise group showed decreases in body weight(mean±SE)baseline:69.4±2.8 vs study-end:67.6±2.7;P<0.635)and body mass index(BMI)(25.2±1.1 vs24.9±0.8;P<0.810),but the extent of change was not significantly different from that experienced by the control group(body weight:68.8±4.0 vs 68.8±3.9;BMI:24.3±1.1 vs 24.4±1.2).However,the exercise group showed significant improvements in leg muscle strength(baseline:41.7±4.3 vs study-end:64.1±5.0;P<0.001),cardio-respiratory endurance(120.5±4.5vs 105.4±2.8;P<0.004),and leg muscle elasticity and power output(21.5±2.6 vs 30.6±2.8;P<0.001).The exercise group showed an exercise-induced reduction in total CTT(baseline:54.2±8.0 vs 30.3±6.1),which was significantly different from that experienced by the control group over the 12-wk period(48.6±9.3vs 48.3±12.3;P=0.027);however,the exercise-induced decreases in CTT involving the three colonic segments examined(right,left and recto-sigmoid)showed no significant differences from the control group.CONCLUSION:A 12-wk aerobic exercise program can benefit psychiatric inpatients by increasing intestinal motility,possibly decreasing risk of metabolic-and cardiovascular-related disease. | Yeon Soo Kim Bong Kil Song Ji Sun Oh Seung Seok Woo | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,30: | 19 |

| 13 | Gender differences in ghrelin, nociception genes, psychological factors and quality of life in functional dyspepsia显示文摘AIM to evaluate gender differences in the aspect of ghrelin,nociception-related genes and psychological aspects and the quality of life(Qo L) in Korean functional dyspepsia(FD) patients.METHODS Total of 191 persons were prospectively enrolled between March 2013 and May 2016 in Seoul National Bundang Hospital,and classified into control and FD group based on ROME Ⅲ criteria. Questionnaire included assessment for dyspepsia symptoms,Qo L and anxiety or depression. Preproghrelin and nociception genes in the gastric mucosa and plasma acyl/des-acyl ghrelin were measured. RESULTS Lower level of plasma acyl ghrelin in FD patients compared to control was significant only in male(15.9 fmol/m L vs 10.4 fmol/m L,P = 0.017). Significantly higher m RNA expressions of nerve growth factor and transient receptor potential vanilloid receptor 1 were observed in male(P = 0.002 and P = 0.014,respectively) than in female. In contrast,female FD patients had a higher anxiety and depression score than male FD(P = 0.029),and anxiety score was correlated with epigastric pain only in female FD patients(female: Spearman rho = 0.420,P = 0.037). The impairment of overall Qo L was more prominent in female FD patients than male patients(5.4 ± 0.3 vs 6.5 ± 0.3,P = 0.020). CONCLUSION Gender differences of ghrelin and nociception-related genes in male and psychological factors in female underlie FD symptoms. More careful assessment of psychological or emotional status is required particularly for the female FD patients. | Yoon Jin Choi Young Soo Park Nayoung Kim Yong Sung Kim Sun Min Lee Dong Ho Lee Hyun Chae Jung | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,45: | 16 |
| 14 | Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by D2 gastrectomy in locally advanced gastric cancer显示文摘AIM:To investigate the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy(NACRT) for resectability of locally advanced gastric cancer(LAGC).METHODS:Between November 2007 and January 2014,29 patients with LAGC(clinically T3 with distal esophagus invasion/T4 or bulky regional node metastasis) that were treated with NACRT followed by D2 gastrectomy were included in this study.Resectability was evaluated with radiologic and endoscopic exams before and after NACRT.Using threedimensional conformal radiotherapy,patients received 45 Gy,with a daily dose of 1.8 Gy.The entire tumor extent and the regional metastatic lymph nodes were included in the gross tumor volume.Patients presenting with a resectable tumor after NACRT received a total or subtotal gastrectomy with D2 dissection.The pathologic tumor response was evaluated using Japanese Gastric Cancer Association histologic evaluation criteria.Postoperative morbidity was evaluated using the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0.Overall survival(OS) and progression-free survival(PFS) rates were estimated using a Kaplan-Meier analysis and compared using the log-rank test.RESULTS:All patients were assessed as unresectable cases.Twenty-four patients(24/29; 82.8%) showed LAGC on positron emission tomography-computed tomography(CT) and contrast-enhanced CT,whereas four patients(4/29; 13.8%) with vague invasion orabutment to an adjacent organ underwent diagnostic laparoscopy.One patient(1/29; 3.4%),initially assessed as a resectable case,underwent an 'open and closure' after the tumor was found to be unresectable.Abutment to an adjacent organ(34.5%) was the most common reason for NACRT.The clinical response rate one month after NACRT was 44.8%.After NACRT,69%(20/29) of patients had a resectable tumor.Of the 20 patients with a resectable tumor,18 patients(62.1%) underwent a D2 gastrectomy.The R0 resection rate was 94.4% and two patients(2/18; 11.1%) showed a complete response.The median follow-up duration was 13.5 mo.The one-year OS and PFS rates were 72.4 and 48.9%,respectively.The one-year OS,PFS,local failure-free survival,and distant metastasis-free survival were higher in patients with a resectable tumor after NACRT(P < 0.001,P < 0.001,P < 0.001,and P =0.078,respectively).No grade 3-4 late treatment-related toxicities or postoperative mortalities were observed.CONCLUSION:NACRT with D2 gastrectomy showed a high rate of R0 resection and promising local control,which may increase the R0 resection opportunity resulting in survival benefit. | Mi Sun Kim Joon Seok Lim Woo Jin Hyung Yong Chan Lee Sun Young Rha Ki Chang Keum Woong Sub Koom | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,9: | 15 |
| 15 | Helicobacter pylori and interleukin-8 in gastric cancer显示文摘Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)is a major etiological factor in the development of gastric cancer.Large-scale epidemiological studies have confirmed the strong association between H.pylori infection and both cancer development and progression.Interleukin-8(IL-8)is overexpressed in gastric mucosa exposed to H.pylori.The expression of IL-8 directly correlates with a poor prognosis in gastric cancer.IL-8 is multifunctional.In addition to its potent chemotactic activity,it can induce proliferation and migration of cancer cells.In this review,we focus on recent insights into the mechanisms of IL-8 signaling associated with gastric cancer.The relationship between IL-8 and H.pylori is discussed.We also summarize the current therapeutics against IL-8 in gastric cancer. | Ko Eun Lee Pham Ngoc Khoi Yong Xia Jung Sun Park Young Eun Joo Kyung Keun Kim Seok Yong Choi Young Do Jung | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,45: | 15 |
| 16 | Use of a clinical pathway in laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the implementation of a clinical pathway and identify clinical factors affecting the clinical pathway for laparoscopic gastrectomy.METHODS: A standardized clinical pathway for gastric cancer(GC) patients was developed in 2001 by the GC surgery team at the Asan Medical Center. We reviewed the collected data of 4800 consecutive patients treated using the clinical pathway following laparoscopic gastrectomy with lymph node dissection for GC involving intracorporeal and extracorporeal anastomosis. The patients were treated between August 2004 and October 2013 in a single institution. To evaluate the rate of completion and risk factors affecting dropout from the clinical pathway, we used a multivariate logistic regression analysis.RESULTS: The overall completion rate of the clinical pathway for laparoscopic gastrectomy was 84.1%(n = 4038). In the comparison between groups of intracorporeal anastomosis and extracorporeal anastomosis patients, the completion rates were 8 3. 8 8 %(n = 1 7 4 0) a n d 8 4. 3 6 %(n = 2 0 7 1), respectively, showing no statistically significant difference. The main reasons for dropping out were postoperative complications(n = 463, 9.7%) and the need for patient observation(n = 299, 6.2%). Among the discharged patients treated using the clinical pathway, the number of patients who were readmitted within 30 d due to postoperative complications was 54(1.1%). In a multivariate analysis, the intraoperative events(OR = 2.558) were the most predictable risk factors for dropping out of the clinical pathway. Additionally, being male(OR = 1.459), advanced age(OR = 1.727), total gastrectomy(OR = 2.444), combined operation(OR = 1.731), and ASA score(OR = 1.889) were significant risk factors affecting the dropout rate from the clinical pathway.CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic gastrectomy appears to be a good indication for the application of a clinical pathway.

| 18 | Clinicopathological significance of altered Notch signaling in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder carcinoma显示文摘AIM:To investigate the role and clinicopathological significance of aberrant expression of Notch receptors and Delta-like ligand-4 (DLL4) in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder carcinoma.METHODS:One hundred and ten patients had surgically resected extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (CC) and gallbladder carcinoma specimens examined by immunohistochemistry of available paraffin blocks.Immunohistochemistry was performed using anti-Notch receptors 1-4 and anti-DLL4 antibodies.We scored the immunopositivity of Notch receptors and DLL4 expression by percentage of positive tumor cells with cytoplasmic expression and intensity of immunostaining.Coexistent nuclear localization was evaluated.Clinicopatho-logical parameters and survival data were compared with the expression of Notch receptors 1-4 and DLL4.RESULTS:Notch receptor proteins showed in the cytoplasm with or without nuclear expression in cancer cells,as well as showing weak cytoplasmic expression in non-neoplastic cells.By semiquantitative evaluation,positive immunostaining of Notch receptor 1 was detected in 96 cases (87.3%),Notch receptor 2 in 97 (88.2%),Notch receptor 3 in 97 (88.2%),Notch receptor 4 in 103 (93.6),and DLL4 in 84 (76.4%).In addition,coex- istent nuclear localization was noted [Notch receptor 1;18 cases (18.8%),Notch receptor 2;40 (41.2%),Notch receptor 3;32 (33.0%),Notch receptor 4;99 (96.1%),DLL4;48 (57.1%)].Notch receptor 1 expression was correlated with advanced tumor,node,metastasis (TNM) stage (P=0.043),Notch receptor 3 with advanced T stage (P=0.017),tendency to express in cases with nodal metastasis (P=0.065) and advanced TNM stage (P=0.052).DLL4 expression tended to be related to less histological differentiation (P=0.095).Coexistent nuclear localization of Notch receptor 3 was related to no nodal metastasis (P=0.027) and Notch receptor 4 with less histological differentiation (P=0.036),while DLL4 tended to be related inversely with T stage (P=0.053).Coexistent nuclear localization of DLL4 was related to poor survival (P=0.002).CONCLUSION:Aberrant expression of Notch receptors 1 and 3 play a role during cancer progression,and cytoplasmic nuclear coexistence of DLL4 expression correlates with poor survival in extrahepatic CC and gallbladder carcinoma. | Hyun Ah Yoon Myung Hwan Noh Byung Geun Kim Ji Sun Han Jin Seok Jang Seok Ryeol Choi Jin Sook Jeong Jin Ho Chun | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,35: | 14 |
| 19 | Piglet gut microbial shifts early in life:causes and effects显示文摘The gut microbiome has long been known to play fundamentally important roles in the animal health and the well-being of its host. As such, the establishment and maintenance of a beneficial gut microbiota early in life is crucial in pigs, since early gut colonizers are pivotal in the establishment of permanent microbial community structures affecting the health and growth performance of pigs later in life. Emphasizing this importance of early gut colonizers, it is critical to understand the factors impacting the establishment of the piglet gut microbiome at weaning. Factors include, among others, diet, in-feed antibiotics, probiotics and prebiotic administration. The impact of these factors on establishment of the gut microbiome of piglets at weaning includes effects on piglet gut microbial diversity, structure, and succession. In this review, we thoroughly reviewed the most recent findings on the piglet gut microbiome shifts as influenced by weaning, and how these microbiome changes brought about by various factors that have been shown to affect the development of microbiota in piglets. This review will provide a general overview of recent studies that can help to facilitate the design of new strategies to modulate the gut microbiome in order to enhance gastrointestinal health, growth performance and well-being of piglets. | Robin B.Guevarra Jun Hyung Lee Sun Hee Lee Min-Jae Seok Doo Wan Kim Bit Na Kang Timothy J.Johnson Richard E.Isaacson Hyeun Bum Kim | 2019 | Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology2019,10,3: | 13 |
| 20 | Short-term interval combined chemoembolization and radiofrequency ablation for hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM:To investigate hepatic function after combined transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE) and radiofrequency ablation(RFA) with a short-term interval(0-2 d).METHODS:A total of 115 patients with compensated liver cirrhosis underwent RFA combined with TACE at a time-interval of 0-2 d for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)<5.0 cm.There were 21 patients who received further hepatic directed treatment altering liver function within 12 mo after the combined therapy for HCC-recurrence,and were excluded.The remaining94 patients who survived without HCC-recurrence were included in this retrospective study.RESULTS:At 1 mo after treatment,Child-Pugh scores(CPs)remained unchanged in 89 of 94 patients(94.7%),and transiently increased by one-point in 5 patients(5.3%).However,the score returned to baseline score at 3 mo and was maintained until 6 mo in all patients.The baseline CPs of 8 or more was identified as a factor for transient rise of CPs after the treatment(CPs 8/9 vs5/6/7;21.4%vs 2.5%;P=0.022).At 12 mo followup,CPs was unchanged in 90 patients(95.7%),and increased by one-point in 4 patients(4.3%).The rise of CPs at 12 mo was not statistically associated with the initial transient rise of CPs.There were procedure-related complications in 3 patients(3.2%),but the complications were resolved by medical and interventional treatments without hepatic functional sequelae.CONCLUSION:The combined TACE and RFA with an interval of 0-2 d are safe for the management of HCC<5 cm in cirrhotic patients. | Won Hyeok Choe Young Jun Kim Hee Sun Park Sang Woo Park Jeong Han Kim So Young Kwon | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,35: | 13 |
