| 1 | Treatment strategies using adefovir dipivoxil for individuals with lamivudine-resistant chronic hepatitis B显示文摘AIM:To investigate retrospectively the long-term efficacy of various treatment strategies using adefovir dipivoxil(adefovir) in patients with lamivudine-resistant chronic hepatitis B.METHODS:We included 154 consecutive patients in two treatment groups:the 'add-on' group(n = 79),in which adefovir was added to ongoing lamivudine treatment due to lamivudine resistance,and the 'switch/combination' group(n = 75),in which lamivudine was first switched to adefovir and then re-added later as needed.The 'switch/combination' group was then divided into two subgroups depending on whether participants followed(group A,n = 30) or violated(group B,n = 45) a proposed treatment strategy that determined whether to add lamivudine based on the serum hepatitis B virus(HBV) DNA levels(< 60 IU/mL or not) after 6 mo of treatment(roadmap concept).RESULTS:The cumulative probability of virologic response(HBV DNA < 60 IU/mL) was higher in group A than in the 'add-on' group and in group B(P < 0.001).In contrast,the cumulative probability of virologic breakthrough was lower in the 'add-on' group than in group B(P = 0.002).Furthermore,the risk of virologic breakthrough in the multivariate analysis was significantly lower in the 'add-on' group than in group A(hazard ratio = 0.096;95%CI,0.015-0.629;P = 0.015).CONCLUSION:The selective combination of adefovir with lamivudine based upon early treatment responses increased the odds of virologic breakthrough relative to the use of uniform combination therapy from the beginning of treatment. | Tae Jung Yun Jin Yong Jung Chang Ha Kim Soon Ho Um Hyonggin An Yeon Seok Seo Jin Dong Kim Hyung Joon Yim Bora Keum Yong Sik Kim Yoon Tae Jeen Hong Sik Lee Hoon Jai Chun Chang Duck Kim Ho Sang Ryu | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,47: | 19 |
| 2 | Outcomes of partial splenic embolization in patients with massive splenomegaly due to idiopathic portal hypertension显示文摘AIM To determine the outcomes of partial splenic em-bolization(PSE) for massive splenomegaly due to idiopathic portal hypertension(IPH).METHODS In this prospective study, we evaluated the charac-teristics and prognosis of consecutive patients with IPH who underwent PSE for all indications at a single medical center between June 2009 and January 2015. The inclusion criteria were: presence of hypersplenism, massive splenomegaly, and resultant pancytopenia. The exclusion criteria were: presence of other diseases causing portal hypertension. During the post-PSE period, the patients were hospitalized. All patients underwent abdominal computed tomography imaging 4 wk post-PSE to determine total splenic and non-infarcted splenic volumes.RESULTS A total of 11 patients, with median age of 33.27 ± 4.8 years, were included in the study. Mean spleen size was 22.9 cm(21-28 cm), and severe hypersplenismwas diagnosed in all patients before PSE. Post-PSE, leukocyte and platelet counts increased significantly, reaching peak levels in the second week with gradual decreases thereafter. Liver function tests did not exhibit significant changes during post-intervention follow-up. All patients developed post-embolization syndrome, and one patient experienced serious complications; all complications were successfully treated with conservative therapy and no death occurred. CONCLUSION Our findings showed that PSE has a lower complication rate than previously-reported surgical complication rates, which supports this intervention as a viable alternative for high-risk operable patients with severe hypersplenism. | Omer Ozturk Gonca Eldem Bora Peynircioglu Taylan Kav Aysegul Gormez Barbaros Erhan Cil Ferhun Balkanci Cenk Sokmensuer Yusuf Bayraktar | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,43: | 18 |
| 3 | Endovascular treatment of carotid cavernous sinus fistula: A systematic review显示文摘Carotid cavernous sinus fistulas are abnormal communications between the carotid system and the cavernous sinus. Several classification schemes have described carotid cavernous sinus fistulas according to etiology, hemodynamic features, or the angiographic arterial architecture. Increased pressure within the cavernous sinus appears to be the main factor in pathophysiology. The clinical features are related to size, exact location, and duration of the fistula, adequacy and route of venous drainage and the presence of arterial/venous collaterals. Noninvasive imaging (computed tomography, magnetic resonance, computed tomography angiography, magnetic resonance angiography, Doppler) is often used in the initial workup of a possible carotid cavernous sinus fistulas. Cerebral angiography is the gold standard for the definitive diagnosis, classification, and planning of treatment for these lesions. The endovascular approach has evolved as the mainstay therapy for definitive treatment in situations including clinical emergencies. Conservative treatment, surgery and radiosurgery constitute other management options for these lesions. | Bora Korkmazer Burak Kocak Ercan Tureci Civan Islak Naci Kocer Osman Kizilkilics | 2013 | World Journal of Radiology2013,5,4: | 14 |
| 4 | Endovascular treatment of extracranial vertebral artery stenosis显示文摘Percutaneous angioplasty and stenting for the treatment of extracranial vertebral artery(VA) stenosis seems a safe,effective and useful technique for resolving symptoms and improving blood flow to the posterior circulation,with a low complication rate and good long-term results.In patients with severe tortuosity of the vessel,stent placement is a real challenge.The new coronary balloon-expandable stents may be preferred.A large variability of restenosis rates has been reported.Drug-eluting stents may be the solution.After a comprehensive review of the literature,it can be concluded that percutaneous angioplasty and stenting of extracranial VA stenosis is technically feasible,but there is insufficient evidence from randomized trials to demonstrate that endovascular management is superior to best medical management. | Burak Kocak Bora Korkmazer Civan Islak Naci Kocer Osman Kizilkilic | 2012 | World Journal of Radiology2012,4,9: | 13 |
| 5 | Prognostic value of inflammation-based markers in patients with pancreatic cancer administered gemcitabine and erlotinib显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the value of systemic inflammationbased markers as prognostic factors for advanced pancreatic cancer(PC). METHODS: Data from 82 patients who underwent combination chemotherapy with gemcitabine and erlotinib for PC from 2011 to 2014 were collected retrospectively. Data that included the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR), the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, and the C-reactive protein(CRP)-to-albumin(CRP/Alb) ratio were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier curves, and univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were used to identify the prognostic factors associated with progression-free survival(PFS) and overall survival(OS). RESULTS: The univariate analysis demonstrated the prognostic value of the NLR(P = 0.049) and the CRP/Alb ratio(P = 0.047) in relation to PFS, and a positiverelationship between an increase in inflammation-based markers and a poor prognosis in relation to OS. The multivariate analysis determined that an increased NLR(hazard ratio = 2.76, 95%CI: 1.33-5.75, P = 0.007) is an independent prognostic factor for poor OS. There was no association between the PLR and the patients' prognoses in those who had received chemotherapy that comprised gemcitabine and erlotinib in combination. The Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test determined significantly worse outcomes in relation to PFS and OS in patients with an NLR > 5 or a CRP/Alb ratio > 5.CONCLUSION: Systemic inflammation-based markers, including increases in the NLR and the CRP/Alb ratio, may be useful for predicting PC prognoses. | Jae Min Lee Hong Sik Lee Jong Jin Hyun Hyuk Soon Choi Eun Sun Kim Bora Keum Yeon Seok Seo Yoon Tae Jeen Hoon Jai Chun Soon Ho Um Chang Duck Kim | 2016 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Oncology2016,8,7: | 12 |
| 6 | Drainage after total thyroidectomy or lobectomy for benign thyroidal disorders显示文摘Objective: This prospective randomized clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the necessity of drainage after total thyroidectomy or lobectomy for benign thyroidal disorders. Methods: A total of 116 patients who underwent total thyroidectomy or lobectomy for benign thyroidal disorders were randomly allocated to be drained or not. Operative and postoperative outcomes including operating time, postoperative pain assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS), total amount of intramuscular analgesic administration, hospital stay, complications, necessity for re-operation and satisfaction of patients were all assessed. Results: The mean operating time was similar between two groups (the drained and non-drained groups). The mean VAS score was found to be significantly low in the non-drained group patients in postoperative day (POD) 0 and POD 1. The mean amount of intramuscular analgesic requirement was significantly less in the non-drained group. One case of hematoma, two cases of seroma and three cases of transient hypoparathyroidism occurred in the non-drained group, whereas one case of hematoma, two cases of seroma, two cases of wound infections and two cases of transient hypoparathyroidism occurred in the drained group. No patient needed re-operation for any complication. The mean hospital stay was significantly shorter and the satisfaction of patients was superior in the non-drained group. Conclusion: These findings suggest that postoperative complications cannot be prevented by using drains after total thyroidectomy or lobectomy for benign thyroid disorders. Furthermore, the use of drains may increase postoperative pain and the analgesic requirement, and prolong the hospital stay. In the light of these findings, the routine use of drains might not be necessary after thyroid surgery for benign disorders. | Tahsin COLAK Tamer AKCA Ozgur TURKMENOGLU Hakan CANBAZ Bora USTUNSOY Arzu KANIK Suha AYDIN1 | 2008 | Journal of Zhejiang University-Science B(Biomedicine & Biotechnology)2008,9,4: | 12 |

| 10 | Endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection salvage technique for ulcerative early gastric cancer显示文摘Endoscopic submucosal dissection is an effective treatment modality for early gastric cancer(EGC), though the submucosal fibrosis found in ulcerative EGC is an obstacle for successful treatment. This report presents two cases of ulcerative EGC in two males, 73- and 80-year-old, with severe fibrosis. As endoscopic ultrasonography suggested that the EGCs had invaded the submucosal layer, the endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection salvage technique was utilized for complete resection of the lesions. Although surgical gastrectomy was originally scheduled, the two patients had severe coronary heart disease, and surgeries were refused because of the risks associated with their heart conditions. The endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection salvage technique procedures described in these cases were performed under conscious sedation, and were completed within 30 min. The complete en bloc resection of EGC using endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection salvage technique was possible with a free resection margin, and no other complications were noted during the procedure. This is the first known report concerning the use of the endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection salvage technique salvage technique for treatment of ulcerative EGC. We demonstrate that endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection salvage technique it is a feasible method showing several advantages over endoscopic submucosal dissection for cases of EGC with fibrosis. | Hyuk Soon Choi Hoon Jai Chun Min Ho Seo Eun Sun Kim Bora Keum Yeon Seok Seo Yoon Tae Jeen Hong Sik Lee Soon Ho Um Chang Duck Kim Ho Sang Ryu | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,27: | 8 |
| 11 | Comparison of sequential and 7-,10-,14-d triple therapy for Helicobacter pylori infection显示文摘AIM:To compare the effectiveness of sequential therapy for Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) infection with that of triple therapy of varying durations.METHODS:The 460 patients enrolled in this study had H.pylori-associated gastritis or a gastric or duodenal ulcer.After screening,H.pylori-infected patients were randomly assigned to receive either conventional triple therapy for 7,10 or 14 d,or a new 10-d sequential therapy.Each of the 4 treatment groups included 115 patients.The outcomes of eradication therapy were assessed 4 wk after treatment by the urea breath test and histology.RESULTS:The overall eradication rate was 81.0%,and eradication rates were 75.7% for 7-d conventional triple therapy,81.9% for 10-d conventional triple therapy,84.4% for 14-d conventional triple therapy,and 82.0% for 10-d sequential therapy.Neither intention-to-treat analysis nor per protocol analysis showed significant differences in eradication rates using sequential therapy or the standard triple therapy(P = 0.416 and P = 0.405,respectively).CONCLUSION:There are no significant differences between 10-d sequential eradication therapy for H.pylori and any duration of standard triple treatment in Korean patients. | Hyuk Soon Choi Hoon Jai Chun Sang Hoon Park Bora Keum Yeon Seok Seo Yong Sik Kim Yoon-Tae Jeen Soon Ho Um Hong Sik Lee Chang Duck Kim Ho Sang Ryu | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,19: | 7 |
| 12 | Enamel microabrasion: An overview of clinical and scientific considerations显示文摘Superficial stains and irregularities of the enamelare generally what prompt patients to seek dental intervention to improve their smile. These stains or defects may be due to hypoplasia, amelogenesis imperfecta, mineralized white spots, or fluorosis, for which enamel microabrasion is primarily indicated. Enamel microabrasion involves the use of acidic and abrasive agents, such as with 37% phosphoric acid and pumice or 6% hydrochloric acid and silica, applied to the altered enamel surface with mechanical pressure from a rubber cup coupled to a rotatory mandrel of a lowrotation micromotor. If necessary, this treatment can be safely combined with bleaching for better esthetic results. Recent studies show that microabrasion is a conservative treatment when the enamel wear is minimal and clinically imperceptible. The most important factor contributing to the success of enamel microabrasion is the depth of the defect, as deeper, opaque stains, such as those resulting from hypoplasia, cannot be resolved with microabrasion, and require a restorative approach. Surface enamel alterations that result from microabrasion, such as roughness and microhardness, are easily restored by saliva. Clinical studies support the efficacy and longevity of this safe and minimally invasive treatment. The present article presents the clinical and scientific aspects concerning the microabrasion technique, and discusses the indications for and effects of the treatment, including recent works describing microscopic and clinical evaluations. | Núbia Inocencya Pavesi Pini Daniel Sundfeld-Neto Flavio Henrique Baggio Aguiar Renato Herman Sundfeld Luis Roberto Marcondes Martins José Roberto Lovadino Débora Alves Nunes Leite Lima | 2015 | World Journal of Clinical Cases2015,3,1: | 6 |
| 13 | Transcranial direct current stimulation in psychiatric disorders显示文摘The interest in non-invasive brain stimulation techniques is increasing in recent years. Among these techniques, transcranial direct current stimulation(t DCS) has been the subject of great interest among researchers because of its easiness to use, low cost, benign profile of side effects and encouraging results of research in the field. This interest has generated several studies and randomized clinical trials, particularly in psychiatry. In this review, we provide a summary of the development of the technique and its mechanism of action as well as a review of the methodological aspects of randomized clinical trials in psychiatry, including studies in affective disorders, schizophrenia, obsessive compulsive disorder, child psychiatry and substance use disorder. Finally,we provide an overview of t DCS use in cognitive enhancement as well as a discussion regarding its clinical use and regulatory and ethical issues. Although many promising results regarding t DCS efficacy were described, the total number of studies is still low, highlighting the need of further studies aiming to replicate these findings in larger samples as to provide a definite picture regarding t DCS efficacy in psychiatry. | Gabriel Tortella Roberta Casati Luana V M Aparicio Antonio Mantovani Natasha Senco Giordano D’Urso Jerome Brunelin Fabiana Guarienti Priscila Mara Lorencini Selingardi Débora Muszkat Bernardo de Sampaio Pereira Junior Leandro Valiengo Adriano H Moffa Marcel Simis Lucas Borrione André R Brunoni | 2015 | World Journal of Psychiatry2015,5,1: | 6 |
| 14 | Proposal of new expanded selection criteria using total tumor size and ^(18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose- positron emission tomography/computed tomography for living donor liver transplantation in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma:The National Cancer Center K显示文摘AIM: To expand the living donor liver transplantation(LT) pool of eligible patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) using new morphological and biological criteria.METHODS: Patients with HCC who underwent living donor LT(LDLT) from March 2005 to May 2013 at the National Cancer Center Korea(NCCK) were enrolled. We performed the 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography(PET/CT)before LDLT. Overall and disease-free survival analysis was done in patients to evaluate the usefulness of new NCCK criteria using PET/CT and total tumor size(10 cm).RESULTS: We enrolled a total of 280 patients who pathologically confirmed to have HCC and performed the PET/CT before transplantation. Among them, 164(58.6%) patients fulfilled the NCCK criteria and 132 patients(47.1%) met the Milan criteria. Five-year overall and disease-free survival rates for patients who fulfilled the NCCK criteria showed 85.2% and 84.0%, respectively, and were significantly higher than those beyond the NCCK criteria(60.2% and 44.4%, respectively; P < 0.001). The correlation analysis between preoperative imaging tests and pathologic reports using Cohen's Kappa demonstrated the better results in the NCCK criteria than those in the Milan criteria(0.850 vs 0.583). The comparison of diseasefree analysis among the NCCK, Milan, and University of California, San Francisco(UCSF) criteria using the receiver operating characteristics curves revealed the similar area under the curve value criteria(NCCK vs Milan, P = 0.484; NCCK vs UCSF, P = 0.189 at 5-years).CONCLUSION: The NCCK criteria using hybrid concept of both morphological and biological parameters showed an excellent agreement between preoperative imaging and pathological results, and favorable survival outcomes. These new criteria might select the optimal patients with HCC waiting LDLT and expand the selection pool. | Seung Duk Lee Bora Lee Seong Hoon Kim Jungnam Joo Seok-Ki Kim Young-Kyu Kim Sang-Jae Park | 2016 | World Journal of Transplantation2016,6,2: | 6 |
| 15 | What exists beyond cag A and vacA? Helicobacter pylori genes in gastric diseases显示文摘Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection is present in more than half the world's population and has been associated with several gastric disorders, such as gastritis, peptic ulceration, and gastric adenocarcinoma.The clinical outcome of this infection depends on host and bacterial factors where H. pylori virulence genes seem to play a relevant role. Studies of cag A and vac A genes established that they were determining factors in gastric pathogenesis. However, there are gastric cancer cases that are cag A-negative. Several other virulence genes have been searched for, but these genes remain less well known that cag A and vac A. Thus, this review aimed to establish which genes have been suggested as potentially relevant virulence factors for H. pylori-associated gastrointestinal diseases. We focused on the cag-pathogenicity island, genes with adherence and motility functions, and ice A based on the relevance shown in several studies in the literature. | Débora Menezes da Costa Eliane dos Santos Pereira Silvia Helena Barem Rabenhorst | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,37: | 6 |
| 16 | Liver biochemistry profile,significance and endoscopic management of biliary tract complications post orthotopic liver transplantation显示文摘AIM: To correlate the significance of liver biochemical tests in diagnosing post orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) biliary complications and to study their profile before and after endoscopic therapy. METHODS: Patients who developed biliary complications were analysed in detail for the clinical information,laboratory tests,treatment offered,response to it,follow up and outcomes. The profile of liver enzymes was determined. The safety,efficacy and outcomes of endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) were also analysed. RESULTS: 40 patients required ERC for 70 biliary complications. GGT was found to be > 3 times (388.1 ± 70.9 U/mL vs 168.5 ± 34.2 U/L,P = 0.007) and SAP > 2 times (345.1 ± 59.1 U/L vs 152.7 ± 21.4 U/L,P = 0.003) the immediate post OLT values. Most frequent complication was isolated anastomotic strictures in 28 (40%). Sustained success was achieved in 26 (81%) patients. CONCLUSION: Biliary complications still remain an important problem post OLT. SAP and GGT can be used as early,non-invasive markers for diagnosis and also to assess the adequacy of therapy. Endoscopic management is usually effective in treating the majority of these biliary complications. | Yogesh M Shastri Nicolas M Hoepffner Bora Akoglu Christina Zapletal Wolf O Bechstein Wolfgang F Caspary Dominik Faust | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,20: | 6 |
| 17 | Assessment of the long-term visual and anatomical outcomes of ranibizumab to treat neovascular age-related macular degeneration显示文摘AIM: To investigate the long-term visual and anatomical outcomes of patients who underwent intravitreal ranibizumab monotherapy to treat neovascular age-related macular degeneration(AMD) and followed-up for at least 2 y.METHODS: A total of 74 eyes of 74 patients who underwent ranibizumab monotherapy for neovascular AMD were included in this retrospective study.RESULTS: The average patient age was 72.1±6.5(range, 57-85)y, the average follow-up time 46.2±13.1(range, 24-75)mo, and the average number of visits 24.1±9.5(range, 8-48). The mean number of injections in year 1 was 4.5, 1.6 in year 2, 0.9 in year 3, 0.4 on year 4, and 0.1 in the following years. Within the entire follow-up period, the mean number of injections was 7.6±4.4(range, 2-21). The mean visual acuity was 48.1±15(range, 15-76) letters at baseline and 45.7±19(range, 7-75) at year 5. The mean central macular thickness was 303±78(range, 178-552) μm at baseline and 251±51(range, 138-359) μm at year 5. Scars developed in 47(63.5%) eyes at the end of the follow-up period, and atrophy was evident in 6(8.1%) eyes.CONCLUSION: Ranibizumab monotherapy can stabilize visual acuity for a mean period of 4 y in patients with neovascular AMD. | Bekir Kücük Sibel Kadayifcilar Bora Eldem | 2018 | International Journal of Ophthalmology(English edition)2018,11,4: | 6 |
| 18 | Comparison of visual and topographic outcomes of deep-anterior lamellar keratoplasty and penetrating keratoplasty in keratoconus显示文摘AIM:To compare visual,surgical and topographic outcomes of deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty(DALK)and penetrating keratoplasty(PK)for keratoconus(KC).METHODS:In this multicenter,prospective,randomized clinical trial 76 eyes of 71 KC patients operated between January 2011 and July 2014 in 2 tertiary referral hospitals were included. Consecutive patients were alternately selected to receive one of the two surgical methods. Thirty eight eyes underwent DALK with the big-bubble technique and 38 eyes underwent PK.RESULTS:Mean best spectacle corrected visual acuity(BSCVA)at the first postoperative week(P=0.012)and the first postoperative month(P<0.001)was statistically significantly higher in DALK group. The mean BSCVA at12 mo was not significantly different for DALK(0.30±1.99 log MAR)versus PK(0.40±0.33 log MAR)(P=0.104). The76.3% of the eyes had a BSCVA over 0.5 in DALK and 47.4%in PK group(P=0.009). The 7.9% of the eyes had a BSCVA of 1.0 in DALK and 5.3% in PK group(P=0.644). Mean spherical equivalent was-2.94 D in DALK and-3.09 D in PK group.Mean topographic astigmatism was 4.62 D and 4.18 D respectively. Regular topographic patterns were observed in 31(81.6%)of DALK and 29(76.3%)of PK(P=0.574). The most frequent topographic pattern was oblate asymmetric bow tie,seen in 39.5% in DALK and 23.7% in PK. CONCLUSION:Big bubble DALK provides an earlier visual improvement compare to PK. However,visual and topographic outcomes are similar to those in PK at 1y. Postoperative complications including rejection and intraocular pressure elevation are more frequent in PK. DALK is a safer alternative to PK for KC. However,intraoperativeperforation of the Descemet's membrane is a significant complication. | Bora Yüksel Baran Kandemir Umut Duygu Uzunel Ozan Celik Sezgin Ceylan Tuncay Küsbeci | 2017 | International Journal of Ophthalmology(English edition)2017,10,3: | 5 |
