| 1 | Hepatic echinococcosis:Clinical and therapeutic aspects显示文摘Echinococcosis or hydatid disease(HD)is a zoonosis caused by the larval stages of taeniid cestodes belonging to the genus Echinococcus.Hepatic echinococcosis is a life-threatening disease,mainly differentiated into alveolar and cystic forms,associated with Echinoccus multilocularis(E.multilocularis)and Echinococcus granulosus(E.granulosus)infection,respectively.Cystic echinococcosis(CE)has a worldwide distribution,while hepatic alveolar echinococcosis(AE)is endemic in the Northern hemisphere,including North America and several Asian and European countries,like France,Germany and Austria.E.granulosus young cysts are spherical,unilocular vesicles,consisting of an internal germinal layer and an outer acellular layer.Cyst expan-sion is associated with a host immune reaction and the subsequent development of a fibrous layer,called the pericyst;old cysts typically present internal septations and daughter cysts.E.multilocularis has a tumorlike,infiltrative behavior,which is responsible for tissue destruction and finally for liver failure.The liver is the main site of HD involvement,for both alveolar and cystic hydatidosis.HD is usually asymptomatic for a long period of time,because cyst growth is commonly slow;the most frequent symptoms are fatigue and abdominal pain.Patients may also present jaundice,hepatomegaly or anaphylaxis,due to cyst leakage or rupture.HD diagnosis is usually accomplished with the combined use of ultrasonography and immunodiagnosis;furthermore,the improvement of surgical techniques,the introduction of minimally invasive treatments[such as puncture,aspiration,injection,re-aspiration(PAIR)]and more effective drugs(such as benzoimidazoles)have deeply changed life expectancy and quality of life of patients with HD.The aim of this article is to provide an up-todate review of biological,diagnostic,clinical and therapeutic aspects of hepatic echinococcosis. | Giuseppe Nunnari Marilia R Pinzone Salvatore Gruttadauria Benedetto M Celesia Giordano Madeddu Giulia Malaguarnera Piero Pavone Alessandro Cappellani Bruno Cacopardo | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012，18，13： | 72 |
| 2 | Pancreatic metastases from renal cell carcinoma:The state of the art显示文摘Pancreatic metastases are rare,with a reported incidence varying from 1.6%to 11%in autopsy studies of patients with advanced malignancy.In clinical series,the frequency of pancreatic metastases ranges from 2%to 5%of all pancreatic malignant tumors.However,the pancreas is an elective site for metastases from carcinoma of the kidney and this peculiarity has been reported by several studies.The epidemiology,clinical presentation,and treatment of pancreatic metastases from renal cell carcinoma are known from singleinstitution case reports and literature reviews.Thereis currently very limited experience with the surgical resection of isolated pancreatic metastasis,and the role of surgery in the management of these patients has not been clearly defined.In fact,for many years pancreatic resections were associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality,and metastatic disease to the pancreas was considered to be a terminal-stage condition.More recently,a significant reduction in the operative risk following major pancreatic surgery has been demonstrated,thus extending the indication for these operations to patients with metastatic disease. | Roberto Ballarin Mario Spaggiari Nicola Cautero Nicola De Ruvo Roberto Montalti Cristina Longo Anna Pecchi Patrizia Giacobazzi Giuseppina De Marco Giuseppe D’Amico Giorgio Enrico Gerunda Fabrizio Di Benedetto | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011，17，43： | 21 |
| 3 | Optical coherence tomography in detection of dysplasia and cancer of the gastrointestinal tract and bilio-pancreatic ductal system显示文摘Optical coherence tomography(OCT) is an optical imaging modality that performs high-resolution,cross-sectional,subsurface tomographic imaging of the microstructure of tissues.The physical principle of OCT is similar to that of B-mode ultrasound imaging,except that it uses infrared light waves rather than acoustic waves.The in vivo resolution is 10-25 times better(about 10 μm) than with high-frequency ultrasound imaging,but the depth of penetration is limited to 1-3 mm,depending upon tissue structure,depth of focus of the probe used,and pressure applied to the tissue surface.In the last decade,OCT technology has evolved from an experimental laboratory tool to a new diagnostic imaging modality with a wide spectrum of clinical applications in medical practice,including the gastrointestinal(GI) tract and pancreatic-biliary ductal system.OCT imaging from the GI tract can be done in humans by using narrow-diameter,catheter-based probes that can be inserted through the accessory channel of either a conventional front-view endoscope,for investigating the epithelial structure of the GI tract,or a side-view endoscope,inside a standard transparent ERCP catheter,for investigating the pancreatico-biliary ductal system.Esophagus and the esophago-gastric junction has been the most widely investigated organ so far;more recently,also duodenum,colon and pancreatico-biliary ductal system have been extensively investigated.OCT imaging of the gastro-intestinal wall structure is characterized by a multiple-layer architecture that permits an accurate evaluation of the mucosa,lamina propria,muscularis mucosae,andpart of the submucosa.The technique may be,therefore,used to identify pre-neoplastic conditions of the GI tract,such as Barrett's epithelium and dysplasia,and evaluate the depth of penetration of early-stage neoplastic lesions.OCT imaging of the pancreatic and biliary ductal system could improve the diagnostic accuracy for ductal epithelial changes and the differential diagnosis between neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions. | Pier Alberto Testoni Benedetto Mangiavillano | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008，14，42： | 18 |
| 4 | Surgery in biliary lithiasis: from the traditional “open” approach to laparoscopy and the“rendezvous” technique显示文摘BACKGROUND:According to the current literature, biliary lithiasis is a worldwide-diffused condition that affects almost 20% of the general population. The rate of common bile duct stones(CBDS) in patients with symptomatic cholelithiasis is estimated to be 10% to 33%, depending on patient's age.Compared to stones in the gallbladder, the natural history of secondary CBDS is still not completely understood. It is not clear whether an asymptomatic choledocholithiasis requires treatment or not. For many years, open cholecystectomy with choledochotomy and/or surgical sphincterotomy and cleaning of the bile duct were the gold standard to treat both pathologies. Development of both endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) and laparoscopic surgery,together with improvements in diagnostic procedures, influenced new approaches to the management of CBDS in association with gallstones.DATA SOURCES:We decided to systematically review the literature in order to identify all the current therapeutic options for CBDS. A systematic literature search was performed independently by two authors using Pub Med, EMBASE, Scopus and the Cochrane Library Central.RESULTS:The therapeutic approach nowadays varies greatly according to the availability of experience and expertise in each center, and includes open or laparoscopic common bile duct exploration, various combinations of laparoscopic cholecystectomy and ERCP and combined laparoendoscopic rendezvous.CONCLUSIONS:Although ERCP followed by laparoscopic cholecystectomy is currently preferred in the majority of hospitals worldwide, the optimal treatment for concomitant gallstones and CBDS is still under debate, and greatly varies among different centers. | Giuseppe Tarantino Paolo Magistri Roberto Ballarin Giacomo Assirati Antonio Di Cataldo Fabrizio Di Benedetto | 2017 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2017，16，6： | 18 |
| 5 | 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 |
| 6 | Diagnosis and treatment of pancreas divisum: A literature review显示文摘Background:Pancreas divisum is a congenital embryological disease caused by a lack of fusion between the ventral and dorsal pancreatic ducts in the early stages of embryogenesis.Recurrent acute pancreatitis,chronic pancreatitis or chronic abdominal pain are the main clinical syndromes at presentation and occur in only 5%of the patients with pancreas divisum.This review aimed to discuss diagnosis and treatment strategies in patients with symptomatic pancreas divisum.Data sources:We report a literature review from 1990 up to January 2018 to explore the various diagnostic modalities and surgical techniques and results reported in the surgical treatment of pancreas divisum.Results:There are limited reports available on this topic in the literature.We analyzed and described the main indications in the treatment of pancreas divisum,focusing on surgical treatment and a discussion of the different approaches.Furthermore,we report the results from our experience in two cases of pancreas divisum treated by pancreatic head resection with segmental duodenectomy(the Nakao procedure).Conclusions:Pancreas divisum is a common pancreatic malformation in which only a few patients develop a symptomatic disease.Surgical treatment is needed in case of endoscopic drainage failure and in cases complicated with chronic pancreatitis and local complications.Many techniques,of greater or lesser complexity,have been proposed. | Valentina Ferri Emilio Vicente Yolanda Quijano Benedetto Ielpo Hipolito Duran Eduardo Diaz Isabel Fabra Riccardo Caruso | 2019 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2019，18，4： | 9 |
| 7 | 煤粉燃烧中NO_x和SO_x生成的详细反应机理模拟显示文摘采用详细化学反应机理与CFD方法耦合的煤粉燃烧数值模拟程序,计算了煤粉燃烧过程中CO,NO_x和SO_x等的浓度分布特性.通过与实验对照,验证了数值模拟方法的可靠性,并分析了燃烧温度和煤粉细度等因素对于NO生成的影响.结果表明温度对于NO的生成影响较大,随着温度的增加,NO的生成浓度明显增加;对于不同煤种,可能存在一个温度点,这时NO的生成速率将非常快;在计算范围内,温度对SO_2的最终生成浓度没有明显影响,而只影响SO_2的释放过程.煤粉细度对于NO生成有较小的影响. | 魏小林 韩小海 Uwe Schnell Günter Scheffknecht Benedetto Risio | 2008 | 力学学报2008，40，6： | 8 |
| 8 | Outcome of stenting in biliary and pancreatic benign and malignant diseases:A comprehensive review显示文摘Endoscopic stenting has become a widely method for the management of various malignant and benign pancreatico-biliary disorders. Biliary and pancreatic stents are devices made of plastic or metal used primarily to establish patency of an obstructed bile or pancreatic duct and may also be used to treat biliary or pancreatic leaks,pancreatic fluid collections and to prevent post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis. In this review,relevant literature search and expert opinions have been used to evaluate the outcome of stenting in biliary and pancreatic benign and malignant diseases. | Benedetto Mangiavillano Nico Pagano Todd H Baron Carmelo Luigiano | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015，21，30： | 8 |

| 10 | Biliary and pancreatic stenting:Devices and insertiontechniques in therapeutic endoscopic retrogradecholangiopancreatography and endoscopic ultrasonography显示文摘Stents are tubular devices made of plastic or metal. Endoscopic stenting is the most common treatment for obstruction of the common bile duct or of the main pancreatic duct, but also employed for the treatment of bilio-pancreatic leakages, for preventing post- endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis and to drain the gallbladder and pancreatic fluid collections. Recent progresses in techniques of stent insertion and metal stent design are represented by new, fullycovered lumen apposing metal stents. These stents are specifically designed for transmural drainage, with a saddle-shape design and bilateral flanges, to provide lumen-to-lumen anchoring, reducing the risk of migration and leakage. This review is an update of the technique of stent insertion and metal stent deployment, of the most recent data available on stent types and characteristics and the new applications for biliopancreatic stents. | Benedetto Mangiavillano Nico Pagano Todd H Baron Monica Arena Giuseppe Iabichino Pierluigi Consolo Enrico Opocher Carmelo Luigiano | 2016 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2016，8，3： | 6 |
| 11 | Intraoperative thromboelastography as a tool to predict postoperative thrombosis during liver transplantation显示文摘BACKGROUND Thromboembolic complications are relatively common causes of increased morbidity and mortality in the perioperative period in liver transplant patients.Early postoperative portal vein thrombosis(PVT,incidence 2%-2.6%)and early hepatic artery thrombosis(HAT,incidence 3%-5%)have a poor prognosis in transplant patients,having impacts on graft and patient survival.In the present study,we attempted to identify the predictive factors of these complications for early detection and therefore monitor more closely the patients most at risk of thrombotic complications.AIM To investigate whether intraoperative thromboelastography(TEG)is useful in detecting the risk of early postoperative HAT and PVT in patients undergoing liver transplantation(LT).METHODS We retrospectively collected thromboelastographic traces,in addition to known risk factors(cold ischemic time,intraoperative requirement for red blood cells and fresh-frozen plasma transfusion,prolonged operating time),in 27 patients,selected among 530 patients(≥18 years old),who underwent their first LT from January 2002 to January 2015 at the Liver University Transplant Center and developed an early PVT or HAT(case group).Analyses of the TEG traces were performed before anesthesia and 120 min after reperfusion.We retrospectively compared these patients with the same number of nonconsecutive control patients who underwent LT in the same study period without developing these complications(1:1 match)(control group).The chosen matching parameters were:Patient graft and donor characteristics[age,sex,body mass index(BMI)],indication for transplantation,procedure details,United Network for Organ Sharing classification,BMI,warm ischemia time(WIT),cold ischemia time(CIT),the volume of blood products transfused,and conventional laboratory coagulation analysis.Normally distributed continuous data are reported as the mean±SD and compared using one-way Analysis of Variance(ANOVA).Nonnormally distributed continuous data are reported as the median(interquartile range)and compared using the Mann-Whitney test.Categorical variables were analyzed with Chi-square tests with Yates correction or Fisher’s exact test depending on best applicability.IBM SPSS Statistics version 24(SPSS Inc.,Chicago,IL,United States)was employed for statistical analysis.Statistical significance was set at P<0.05.RESULTS Postoperative thrombotic events were identified as early if they occurred within 21 d postoperatively.The incidence of early hepatic artery occlusion was 3.02%,whereas the incidence of PVT was 2.07%.A comparison between the case and control groups showed some differences in the duration of surgery,which was longer in the case group(P=0.032),whereas transfusion of blood products,red blood cells,fresh frozen plasma,and platelets,was similar between the two study groups.Thromboelastographic parameters did not show any statistically significant difference between the two groups,except for the G value measured at basal and 120’postreperfusion time.It was higher,although within the reference range,in the case group than in the control group(P=0.001 and P<0.001,respectively).In addition,clot lysis at 60 min(LY60)measured at 120’postreperfusion time was lower in the case group than in the control group(P=0.035).This parameter is representative of a fibrinolysis shutdown(LY60=0%-0.80%)in 85%of patients who experienced a thrombotic complication,resulting in a statistical correlation with HAT and PVT.CONCLUSION The end of surgery LY60 and G value may identify those recipients at greater risk of developing early HAT or PVT,suggesting that they may benefit from intense surveillance and eventually anticoagulation prophylaxis in order to prevent these serious complications after LT. | Lesley De Pietri Roberto Montalti Giuliano Bolondi Valentina Serra Fabrizio Di Benedetto | 2020 | World Journal of Transplantation2020，10，11： | 5 |
| 12 | Post-transplantation hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence: Patterns and relation between vascularity and differentiation degree显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the relationship between hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) vascularity and grade; to describe patterns and vascular/histopathological variations of post-transplantation recurrence.METHODS: This retrospective study included 165 patients(143 men, 22 women; median age 56.8 years, range 28-70.4 years) transplanted for HCC who had a follow-up period longer than 2 mo. Pre-transplantation dynamic computed tomography or magnetic resonance examinations were retrospectively reviewed, classifying HCC imaging enhancement pattern into hypervascular and hypovascular based on presence of wash-in during arterial phase. All pathologic reports of the explanted livers were reviewed, collecting data about HCC differentiation degree. The association between imaging vascular pattern and pathological grade was estimated using the Fisher exact test. All follow-up clinical and imaging data were reviewed for evidence of recurrence. Recurrence rate was calculated and imaging features of recurrent tumor were collected, classifying early and late recurrences based on timing(< or ≥ 2 years after transplantation) and intrahepatic, extrahepatic and both intrahepatic and extrahepatic recurrences based onlocation. All intrahepatic recurrences were classified as hypervascular or hypovascular and the differentiation degree was collected where available. The presence of variations in imaging enhancement pattern and pathological grade between the primary tumor and the intrahepatic recurrence was evaluated and the association between imaging and histopatholgical variations was estimated by using the χ2 test. RESULTS: Of the 163 patients with imaging evidence of viable tumor, 156(95.7%) had hypervascular and 7(4.3%) hypovascular HCC. Among the 125 patients with evidence of viable tumor in the explanted liver, 19(15.2%) had grade 1, 56(44.8%) grade 2, 40(32%) grade 3 and 4(3.2%) grade 4 HCC, while the differentiation degree was not assessable for 6 patients(4.8%). A significant association was found between imaging vascularity and pathological grade(P = 0.035). Post-transplantation recurrence rate was 14.55%(24/165). All recurrences occurred in patients who had a hypervascular primary tumor. Three patients(12.5%) experienced late recurrence; the location of the first recurrence was extrahepatic in 14 patients(58.3%), intrahepatic in 7 patients(29.2%) and both intrahepatic and extrahepatic in 3 patients(12.5%). Two patients had a variation in imaging characteristics between the primary HCC(hypervascular) and the intrahepatic recurrent HCC(hypovascular), while 1 patient had a variation of histopathological characteristics(from moderate to poor differentiation), however no association was found between imaging and histopathological variations.CONCLUSION: A correlation was found between HCC grade and vascularity; some degree of variability may exist between the primary and the recurrence imaging/histopathological characteristics, apparently not correlated. | Annarita Pecchi Giulia Besutti Mario De Santis Cinzia Del Giovane Sofia Nosseir Giuseppe Tarantino Fabrizio Di Benedetto Pietro Torricelli | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015，7，2： | 5 |
| 13 | Long term follow-up and outcome of liver transplantation from hepatitis B surface antigen positive donors显示文摘Liver transplant for hepatitis B virus(HBV) currently yields excellent outcomes: it allows to rescue patients with an HBV-related advanced liver disease, resulting in a demographical modification of the waiting list for liver transplant. In an age of patient-tailored treatments, in liver transplantation as well the aim is to offer the best suitable graft to the patient who can benefit from it, also expanding the criteria for organ acceptance and allocation. With the intent of developing strategies to increase the donor pool, we set-up a multicenter study involving 3 Liver Transplant Centers in Italy: patients undergoing liver transplantation between March 03, 2004, and May 21, 2010, were retrospectively evaluated. 1408 patients underwent liver transplantation during the study period, 28(2%) received the graft from hepatitis B surface antigen positive(HBs Ag)-positive deceased donors. The average follow-up after liver transplantation was 63.7 mo [range: 0.1-119.4; SD ± 35.8]. None Primary nonfunction, re-liver transplantation, early or late hepatic artery thrombosis occurred. The 1-, 3-and 5-year graft and patient survival resulted of 85.7%, 82.1%, 78.4%. Our results suggest that the use of HBs Agpositive donors liver grafts is feasible, since HBV can be controlled without affecting graft stability. However, the selection of grafts and the postoperative antiviral therapy should be managed appropriately. | Roberto Ballarin Alessandro Cucchetti Francesco Paolo Russo Paolo Magistri Matteo Cescon Umberto Cillo Patrizia Burra Antonio Daniele Pinna Fabrizio Di Benedetto | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017，23，12： | 4 |
| 14 | Radiofrequency ablation vs surgical resection in elderly patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in Milan criteria显示文摘BACKGROUND Surgical resection and radiofrequency ablation(RFA)represent two possible strategy in treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)in Milan criteria.AIM To evaluate short-and long-term outcome in elderly patients(>70 years)with HCC in Milan criteria,which underwent liver resection(LR)or RFA.METHODS The study included 594 patients with HCC in Milan criteria(429 in LR group and 165 in RFA group)managed in 10 European centers.Statistical analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method before and after propensity score matching(PSM)and Cox regression.RESULTS After PSM,we compared 136 patients in the LR group with 136 patients in the RFA group.Overall survival at 1,3,and 5 years was 91%,80%,and 76%in the LR group and 97%,67%,and 41%in the RFA group respectively(P=0.001).Diseasefree survival at 1,3,and 5 years was 84%,60%and 44%for the LR group,and 63%,36%,and 25%for the RFA group(P=0.001).Postoperative Clavien-Dindo IIIIV complications were lower in the RFA group(1%vs 11%,P=0.001)in association with a shorter length of stay(2 d vs 7 d,P=0.001).In multivariate analysis,Model for End-stage Liver Disease(MELD)score(>10)[odds ratio(OR)=1.89],increased value of international normalized ratio(>1.3)(OR=1.60),treatment with radiofrequency(OR=1.46),and multiple nodules(OR=1.19)were independent predictors of a poor overall survival while a high MELD score(>10)(OR=1.51)and radiofrequency(OR=1.37)were independent factors associated with a higher recurrence rate.CONCLUSION Despite a longer length of stay and a higher rate of severe postoperative complications,surgery provided better results in long-term oncological outcomes as compared to ablation in elderly patients(>70 years)with HCC in Milan criteria. | Maria Conticchio Riccardo Inchingolo Antonella Delvecchio Letizia Laera Francesca Ratti Maximiliano Gelli Ferdinando Anelli Alexis Laurent Giulio Vitali Paolo Magistri Giacomo Assirati Emanuele Felli Taiga Wakabayashi Patrick Pessaux Tullio Piardi Fabrizio di Benedetto Nicola de'Angelis Javier Briceño AntonioRampoldi RenèAdam Daniel Cherqui Luca Antonio Aldrighetti Riccardo Memeo | 2021 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2021，27，18： | 4 |
| 15 | Radiofrequency and malignant biliary strictures:An update显示文摘Malignant biliary strictures are usually linked to different types of tumors,mainly cholangiocarcinoma, pancreatic and hepatocellular carcinomas. Palliative measures are usually adopted in patients with nonresectable or borderline resectable biliary disease. Stent placement is a well-known and established treatment in patients with unresectable malignancy. Intraductal radiofrequency ablation(RFA) represents a procedure that involves the use of a biliary catheter device, via an endoscopic approach. Indications for biliary RFA described in literature are: Palliative treatment of malignant biliary strictures, avoiding stent occlusion, ablating ingrowth of blocked metal stents, prolonging stent patency,ablating residual adenomatous tissue after endoscopic ampullectomy. In this mini-review we addressed focus on technical success defined as deployment of the RF catheter, virtually succeeded in all patients included in the studies. About efficacy, three main outcome measures have been contemplated: Biliary decompression and stent patency, survival. Existing studies suggest a beneficial effect on survival and stent patency with RFA, but current impression is limited because most of studies have been performed using a retrospective design, on diminutive and dissimilar cohorts of patients. | Francesco Auriemma Luca De Luca Mario Bianchetti Alessandro Repici Benedetto Mangiavillano | 2019 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2019，11，2： | 3 |
| 16 | Over-the-scope clips in the treatment of gastrointestinal tract iatrogenic perforation: A multicenter retrospective study and a classification of gastrointestinal tract perforations显示文摘AIM: To determine the outcome of the management of iatrogenic gastrointestinal tract perforations treated by over-the-scope clip(OTSC) placement.METHODS: We retrospectively enrolled 20 patients(13 female and 7 male; mean age: 70.6 ± 9.8 years) in eight high-volume tertiary referral centers with upper or lower iatrogenic gastrointestinal tract perforation treated by OTSC placement. Gastrointestinal tract perforation could be with oval-shape or with round-shape. Ovalshape perforations were closed by OTSC only by suction and the round-shape by the 'twin-grasper' plus suction. RESULTS: Main perforation diameter was 10.1 ± 4.3 mm(range 3-18 mm). The technical success rate was 100%(20/20 patients) and the clinical success rate was 90%(18/20 patients). Two patients(10%) who did not have complete sealing of the defect underwent surgery. Based upon our observations we propose two types of perforation: Round-shape 'type-1 perforation' and oval-shape 'type-2 perforation'. Eight(40%) out of the 20 patients had a type-1 perforation and 12 patients a type-2(60%). CONCLUSION: OTSC placement should be attempted after perforation occurring during diagnostic or therapeutic endoscopy. A failed closure attempt does not impair subsequent surgical treatment. | Benedetto Mangiavillano Angelo Caruso Raffaele Manta Roberto Di Mitri Alberto Arezzo Nico Pagano Giuseppe Galloro Filippo Mocciaro Massimiliano Mutignani Carmelo Luigiano Enrico Antonucci Rita Conigliaro Enzo Masci | 2016 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery2016，8，4： | 3 |

| 18 | Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting: Misperceptions and misconceptions显示文摘Coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) continues to be one of the most commonly performed cardiac surgical procedures worldwide. Conventional CABG performed on cardiopulmonary bypass termed on-pump CABG is regarded as the gold standard. However, on-pump CABG results in several physiologic derangements including but not limited to thrombocytopenia, activation of complement factors, immune suppression, and inflammatory responses leading to organ dysfunction.Furthermore, manipulating an atherosclerotic ascending aorta during cannulation and cross-clamping can predispose to embolization and stroke risk. Recognition of these detrimental effects of on-pump CABG resulted in resurgence of off-pump CABG nearly two decades ago.Off-pump CABG since its resurgence has been a subject of intensive scrutiny and speculation. Despite numerous retrospective nonrandomized studies, prospective randomized trials, and meta-analyses validating the safety and efficacy of off-pump CABG, opponents of the technique have persistently demanded abandonment of off-pump CABG. Several misconceptions and misperceptions are used as an excuse for such demands. This review article examines published scientific evidence to evaluate these misperceptions and misconceptions about off-pump CABG. | Shahzad G Raja Umberto Benedetto | 2014 | World Journal of Methodology2014，4，1： | 3 |
| 19 | Heavily calcified gastrointestinal stromal tumors:Pathophysiology and implications of a rare clinicopathologic entity显示文摘Gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of the gastrointestinal tract, and are characterized by a broad spectrum of clinical, histological and molecular features at presentation. Although focal and scattered calcifications are not uncommon within the primary tumor mass, heavy calcification within a GIST is rarely described in the literature and the clinical-biological meaning of this feature remains unclear. Cases with such an atypical presentation are challenging and may be associated with diagnostic pitfalls. Herein, we report a gastric GIST with the unusual presentation of prominent calcifications that was identified incidentally on imaging during a post-trauma diagnostic work-up. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery with a radical resection of the mass, which was subsequently characterized by histological analysis as spindle-shaped tumor cells, positive for CD117/c-KIT, CD34 and DOG1, and with calcified areas. Given the intermediate risk of recurrence, no adjuvant therapy was recommended andthe patient underwent regular follow-up for 22 mo, with no evidence of relapse. Our case can be considered of interest because of the rarity of clinical presentation and the uniquely large size of the GIST at diagnosis(longest diameter exceeding 9 cm). In closing, we discuss the pathophysiology and clinical implications of calcifications in GISTs by reviewing the most up-to-date relevant literature. | Massimiliano Salati Giulia Orsi Luca Reggiani Bonetti Fabrizio Di Benedetto Giuseppe Longo Stefano Cascinu | 2017 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Oncology2017，9，3： | 2 |
| 20 | Design and optimization of a semi-active suspension system for railway applications显示文摘The present work focused on the application of innovative damping technologies in order to improve rail-way vehicle performances in terms of dynamic stability and comfort.As a benchmark case-study,the secondary sus-pension stage was selected and different control techniques were investigated,such as skyhook,dynamic compensation,and sliding mode control.The ?nal aim was to investigate which control schemes are suitable for optimal exploitation of the non-linear behavior of the actuators.The performance improvement achieved by adoption of the semi-active dampers on a standard high-speed train was evaluated in terms of passenger comfort.Different control strategies have been investigated by comparing a simple SISO(single input single output) regulator based on the skyhook damper ap-proach with a centralized regulator.The centralized regulator allows for the estimation of a near optimal set of control forces that minimize car-body accelerations with respect to constraints imposed by limited performance of semi-active actuators.Simulation results show that best results is obtained using a mixed approach that considers the simultaneous applications of model based and feedback compensation control terms. | Benedetto ALLOTTA Luca PUGI Valentina COLLA Fabio BARTOLINI Francesco CANGIOLI | 2011 | Journal of Modern Transportation2011，19，4： | 2 |
