| 1 | Helicobacter pylori associated chronic gastritis,clinical syndromes,precancerous lesions,and pathogenesis of gastric cancer development显示文摘Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)infection is well known to be associated with the development of precancerous lesions such as chronic atrophic gastritis(AG),or gastric intestinal metaplasia(GIM),and cancer.Various molecular alterations are identified not only in gastric cancer(GC)but also in precancerous lesions.H.pylori treatment seems to improve AG and GIM,but still remains controversial.In contrast,many studies,including meta-analysis,show that H.pylori eradication reduces GC.Molecular markers detected by genetic and epigenetic alterations related to carcinogenesis reverse following H.pylori eradication.This indicates that these changes may be an important factor in the identification of high risk patients for cancer development.Patients who underwent endoscopic treatment of GC are at high risk for development of metachronous GC.A randomized controlled trial from Japan concluded that prophylactic eradication of H.pylori after endoscopic resection should be used to prevent the development of metachronous GC,but recent retrospective studies did not show the tendency.Patients with precancerous lesions(molecular alterations)that do not reverse after H.pylori treatment,represent the'point of no return'and may be at high risk for the development of GC.Therefore,earlier H.pylori eradication should be considered for preventing GC development prior to the appearance of precancerous lesions. | Jiro Watari Nancy Chen Peter S Amenta Hirokazu Fukui Tadayuki Oshima Toshihiko Tomita Hiroto Miwa Kheng-Jim Lim Kiron M Das | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，18： | 60 |
| 2 | Gut-liver axis in liver cirrhosis: How to manage leaky gut and endotoxemia显示文摘A 'leaky gut' may be the cutting edge for the passage of toxins, antigens or bacteria into the body, and may play a pathogenic role in advanced liver cirrhosis and its complications. Plasma endotoxin levels have been admitted as a surrogate marker of bacterial translocation and close relations of endotoxemia to hyperdynamic circulation, portal hypertension, renal, cardiac, pulmonary and coagulation disturbances have been reported. Bacterial overgrowth, increased intestinal permeability, failure to inactivate endotoxin,activated innate immunity are all likely to play a role in the pathological states of bacterial translocation. Therapeutic approach by management of the gut-liver axis by antibiotics, probiotics, synbiotics, prebiotics and their combinations may improve the clinical course of cirrhotic patients. Special concern should be paid on anti-endotoxin treatment. Adequate management of the gut-liver axis may be effective for prevention of liver cirrhosis itself by inhibiting the progression of fibrosis. | Hiroshi Fukui | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015，7，3： | 32 |
| 3 | Aging is a risk factor of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in premenopausal women显示文摘AIM: To clarify the relationship between age, menopause, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in women. METHODS: We conducted a follow-up study on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease by using abdominal ultrasonography, and investigated the relationship of age and menopause with the development of NAFLD in women. We followed 1829 women and 2572 men (response rate, 86%) selected in 2001 to represent the non-institutionalized adult population of Gifu, Japan. Data collected included self-reported medical history, lifestyle factors, and menopausal status. The postmenopausal state was defined as beginning 1 year after the cessation of menses. We diagnosed NAFLD with the aid of abdominal ultrasonography by using diagnostic criteria describedRESULTS: The prevalence of NAFLD in women increases with age, but does not alter with age in men. Furthermore, the prevalence of NAFLD in premenopausal women (6%) was lower than that in men (24%) and in postmenopausal women (15%). The associations of the postmenopausal state and hormone replacement therapy with NAFLD were statistically significant in a univariate logistic regression model. At the follow-up examination, 67 women (5%) were newly diagnosed with NAFLD. The incidence of NAFLD was 3.5% (28/802) in premenopausal women, 7.5% (4/53) in menopausal women, 6.1% (24/392) in postmenopausal women, and 5.3% (11/206) in women receiving hormone replacement therapy. The weight gain in premenopausal women was equal to that in postmenopausal women. Metabolic syndrome and weight gain were independent risk factors for NAFLD in pre-and postmenopausal women, but age was an independent risk factor in premenopausal women only. CONCLUSION: Aging is a risk factor for NAFLD in premenopausal women, independent of weight gain or influence of metabolic syndrome. | Masahide Hamaguchi Takao Kojima Akihiro Ohbora Noriyuki Takeda Michiaki Fukui Takahiro Kato | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012，18，3： | 19 |
| 4 | Clinical outcomes and risk factors for perforation in gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection: A prospective pilot study显示文摘AIM: To evaluate clinical outcomes and risk factors for endoscopic perforation during endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in a prospective study. METHODS: We investigated the clinical outcomes and risk factors for the development of perforation in 98 consecutive gastric neoplasms undergoing ESD regarding. Demographic and clinical parameters including patient-, tumor-, and treatment-related factors, clinical parameters, and duration of hospital stay were analyzed for risk factors for perforation. In subgroup analysis, we also compared the clinical outcomes between perforation and 'silent' free air without endoscopically visible perforation detected only by computed tomography.RESULTS: Perforation was identified in 8.2% of patients. All patients were managed conservatively by the administration of antibiotics. The mean procedure time was significantly longer in patients with endoscopic perforation than in those without. According to the receiver-operating characteristic analysis, the resulting cutoff value of the procedure time for perforation was 115 min (87.5% sensitivity, 56.7% specificity). Prolonged procedure time (≥ 115 min) was associated with an increased risk of perforation (odds ratio 9.15; 95%CI: 1.08-77.54; P = 0.04). Following ESD, body temperature and C-reactive protein level were significantly higher in patients with perforation than in those without (P = 0.02), whereas there was no difference between these patient groups on the starting day of oral intake or of hospitalization. In subgroup analysis, the post-ESD clinical course was not different between endoscopic perforation and silent free air. CONCLUSION: Only prolonged procedure time (≥ 115 min) was significantly associated with perforation. The clinical outcomes of perforation are favorable and are comparable to those of patients with or without silent free air. | Jiro Watari Toshihiko Tomita Fumihiko Toyoshima Jun Sakurai Takashi Kondo Haruki Asano Takahisa Yamasaki Takuya Okugawa Hisatomo Ikehara Tadayuki Oshima Hirokazu Fukui Hiroto Miwa | 2013 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2013，5，6： | 17 |
| 5 | Pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis following alpha-glucosidase inhibitor treatment:A case report and review of the literature显示文摘A 69-year-old man was diagnosed as having myasthenia gravis (MG) in September 2004,and treated with thymectomy and prednisolone. He was then diagnosed as having steroid-induced diabetes mellitus,and received sulfonylurea (SU) therapy in May 2005. An alpha-glucosidase inhibitor (αGI) was added in March 2006,resulting in good glycemic control. He experienced symptoms of abdominal distention,increased flatus,and constipation in October 2007,and was admitted into our hospital in late November with hematochezia. Plain abdominal radiography revealed small linear radiolucent clusters in the wall of the colon. Computed tomography (CT) showed intramural air in the sigmoid colon. Colonoscopy revealed multiple smooth surfaced hemispherical protrusions in the sigmoid colon. The diagnosis of pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis (PCI) was made on the basis of these findings. As the αGI voglibose was suspected as the cause of this patient's PCI,treatment was conservative,ceasing voglibose,with fasting and fluid supplementation. The patient progressed well,and was discharged 2 wk later. Recently,several reports of PCI associated with αGI therapy have been published,predominantly in Japan where αGIs are commonly used. If the use of αGIs becomes more widespread,we can expect more reports of this condition on a global scale. The possibility of PCI should be considered in diabetic patients complaining of gastrointestinal symptoms,and the gastrointestinal tract should be thoroughly investigated in these patients. | Tatsuhiro Tsujimoto Erika Shioyama Kei Moriya Hideto Kawaratani Yasuyo Shirai Masahisa Toyohara Akira Mitoro Jun-ichi Yamao Hisao Fujii Hiroshi Fukui | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008，14，39： | 16 |
| 6 | Decreased levels of plasma adiponectin associated with increased risk of colorectal cancer显示文摘AIM:To investigate the association between adiponectin levels and risk of colorectal adenoma and cancer (early and advanced).METHODS: A cross-sectional study in a cohort of hospital-based patients was conducted between January 2004 and March 2006 at Yamagata University Hospital. Male subjects, who had colorectal tumors detected by endoscopic examination, were enrolled according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Based on the T factor of the TNM system, intraepithelial carcinoma and submucosally invasive carcinoma were def ined as early cancer, and invasion into the muscularis propria or deeper was defined as advanced cancer. The plasma levels of glucose, insulin, total cholesterol, triglyceride, high sensitivity C-reactive protein, insulin like growth factor (IGF)-1, IGF binding protein-3, adiponectin, leptin, and resistin were measured. Each factor level was designated low or high, and the risk of adenoma or cancer was estimated by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.RESULTS: We enrolled 124 male subjects (47 with adenoma, 34 with early cancer, 17 with advanced cancer, and 26 without tumors as controls). In patients with adenoma, high triglyceride and low adiponectin were associated with a significant increase in the odds ratio (OR) by univariate analysis. Only a low adiponectin level was related to increased adenoma risk, with an adjusted OR for low level (<11 μg/mL) to high (≥11 μg/mL) of 5.762 (95% confidence interval (CI):1.683-19.739, P=0.005). In the patients with early cancer, high body mass index, high triglyceride, and low adiponectin were associated with a significant increase in OR in univariate analysis. Imultivariate analysis, only low adiponectin was significantly associated with early cancer, with an adjusted OR of 4.495 (95% CI:1.090-18.528, P=0.038). However, in patients with advanced cancer, low adiponectin was not recognized as a significant risk factor for advanced cancer.CONCLUSION: A decreased level of adiponectin is strongly associated with an increased risk of colorectal adenoma and early cancer. These data call for further investigation, including a controlled prospective study. | Sayaka Otake Hiroaki Takeda Shoichiro Fujishima Tadahisa Fukui Tomohiko Orii Takeshi Sato Yu Sasaki Shoichi Nishise Sumio Kawata | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010，16，10： | 14 |
| 7 | Comparative study of esomeprazole and lansoprazole in triple therapy for eradication of Helicobacter pylori in Japan显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of esomeprazole-based triple therapy compared with lansoprazole therapy as first-line eradication therapy for patients with Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)in usual post-marketing use in Japan,where the clarithromycin(CAM)resistance rate is 30%.METHODS:For this multicenter,randomized,openlabel,non-inferiority trial,we recruited patients(≥20years of age)with H.pylori infection from 20 hospitals in Japan.We randomly allocated patients to esomeprazole therapy(esomeprazole 20 mg,CAM 400 mg,amoxicillin(AC)750 mg for the first 7 d,with all drugs given twice daily)or lansoprazole therapy(lansoprazole30 mg,CAM 400 mg,AC 750 mg for the first 7 d,with all drugs given twice daily)using a minimization method with age,sex,and institution as adjustment factors.Our primary outcome was the eradication rate by intention-to-treat(ITT)and per-protocol(PP)analyses.H.pylori eradication was confirmed by a urea breath test from 4 to 8 wk after cessation of therapy.RESULTS:ITT analysis revealed the eradication rates of 69.4%(95%CI:61.2%-76.6%)for esomeprazole therapy and 73.9%(95%CI:65.9%-80.6%)for lansoprazole therapy(P=0.4982).PP analysis showed eradication rate of 76.9%(95%CI:68.6%-83.5%)for esomeprazole therapy and 79.8%(95%CI:71.9%-86.0%)for lansoprazole therapy(P=0.6423).There were no differences in adverse effects between the two therapies.CONCLUSION:Esomeprazole showed non-inferiority and safety in a 7 day-triple therapy for eradication of H.pylori compared with lansoprazole. | Tsutomu Nishida Masahiko Tsujii Hirohisa Tanimura Shusaku Tsutsui Shingo Tsuji Akira Takeda Atsuo Inoue Hiroyuki Fukui Toshiyuki Yoshio Osamu Kishida Hiroyuki Ogawa Masahide Oshita Ichizo Kobayashi Shinichiro Zushi Makoto Ichiba Naoto Uenoyama Yuichi Yasunaga Ryu Ishihara Mamoru Yura Masato Komori Satoshi Egawa Hideki Iijima Tetsuo Takehara | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，15： | 13 |
| 8 | Identification of individuals with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease by the diagnostic criteria for the metabolic syndrome显示文摘AIM:To clarify the efficiency of the criterion of metabolic syndrome to detecting non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD).METHODS:Authors performed a cross-sectional study involving participants of a medical health checkup program including abdominal ultrasonography.This study involved 11 714 apparently healthy Japanese men and women,18 to 83 years of age.NAFLD was defined by abdominal ultrasonography without an alcohol intake of more than 20 g/d,known liver disease,or current use of medication.The revised criteria of the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment PanelⅢ were used to characterize the metabolic syndrome.RESULTS:NAFLD was detected in 32.2%(95%CI:31.0%-33.5%)of men(n=1874 of 5811)and in 8.7%(95%CI:8.0%-9.5%)of women(n=514 of 5903).Among obese people,the prevalence of NAFLD was as high as 67.3%(95%CI:64.8%-69.7%)in men and 45.8%(95%CI:41.7%-50.0%)in women.Although NAFLD was thought of as being the liver phenotype of metabolic syndrome,the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome among subjects with NAFLD was low both in men and women.66.8%of men and 70.4%of women with NAFLD were not diagnosed with the metabolic syndrome.48.2%of men with NAFLD and 49.8%of women with NAFLD weren't overweight[body mass index(BMI)≥25 kg/m2].In the same way,68.6%of men with NAFLD and 37.9%of women with NAFLD weren't satisfied with abdominal classification(≥90 cm for men and≥80 cm for women).Next,authors defined it as positive at screening for NAFLD when participants satisfied at least one criterion of metabolic syndrome.The sensitivity of the definition'at least 1 criterion'was as good as 84.8%in men and 86.6%in women.Separating subjects by BMI,the sensitivity was higher in obese men and women than in non-obese men and women(92.3%vs 76.8%in men,96.1%vs 77.0%in women,respectively).CONCLUSION:Authors could determine NAFLD effectively in epidemiological study by modifying the usage of the criteria for metabolic syndrome. | Masahide Hamaguchi Noriyuki Takeda Takao Kojima Akihiro Ohbora Takahiro Kato Hiroshi Sarui Michiaki Fukui Chisato Nagata Jun Takeda | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012，18，13： | 13 |
| 9 | Decreased phagocytic activity of Kupffer cells in a rat nonalcoholic steatohepatitis model显示文摘AIM: To investigate Kupffer cell dynamics and phagocytic activity,using a rat nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) model. METHODS: Male F344 rats were fed either a control diet or a choline-deficient L-amino acid-defined (CDAA) diet,followed by contrast enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) using Levovist. The uptake of latex beads by the Kupffer cells was determined by fluorescent microscopy. The status of the Kupffer cells was compared between the two groups,using the immunohistochemical staining technique. RESULTS: After 4 or more wk of the CDAA diet,CEUS examination revealed a decrease in the signal intensity,20 min after intravenous Levovist. Fluorescent microscopic examination showed that the uptake of latex beads by the Kupffer cells was reduced at week 1 and 2 in the study group,compared with the controls,with no further reduction after 3 wk. Immunohistochemical staining revealed no significant difference in the Kupffer cell counts between the control group and the CDAA group. CONCLUSION: CEUS examination using Levovist demonstrated reduced contrast effect and phagocytic activity in the liver parenchymal phase,although the Kupffer cell numbers were unchanged,indicating reduced phagocytic function of the Kupffer cells in the rat NASH model. We believe that CEUS examination using Levovist is a useful screening modality,which can detect NASH in fatty liver patients. | Tatsuhiro Tsujimoto Hideto Kawaratani Toshiyuki Kitazawa Toshiko Hirai Hajime Ohishi Mitsuteru Kitade Hitoshi Yoshiji Masahito Uemura Hiroshi Fukui | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008，14，39： | 12 |
| 10 | Protective effect of alcohol consumption for fatty liver but not metabolic syndrome显示文摘AIM:To investigate the effect of alcohol on the metabolic syndrome (MS) and fatty liver in Japanese men and women.METHODS:A cross-sectional study was conducted in a medical health checkup program at a general hospital.This study involved 18 571 Japanese men and women,18-88 years of age,with a mean body mass index of 22.6 kg/m 2.A standardized questionnaire was administered.The total amount of alcohol consumed per week was calculated,and categorized into four grades.Fatty liver was examined by ultrasound modified criteria of the revised National Cholesterol Educa-tion Program Adult Treatment Panel Ⅲ and the new International Diabetes Federation.RESULTS:The prevalence of fatty liver decreased in men and women with light to moderate alcohol consumption,whereas the prevalence of MS was not so changed.The prevalence of fatty liver of any grade in men was lower than that in those with no or minimal alcohol consumption.In women with light to moderate alcohol consumption,prevalence of fatty liver was lower than that in women with no or minimal alcohol consumption.By logistic regression analysis,the odds ratio (OR) for MS in women with light alcohol consumption was decreased to < 1.0,but this change was not clear in men.The OR for fatty liver was clearly < 1.0 in men with any level of alcohol consumption and in women with light to moderate consumption.CONCLUSION:Light to moderate alcohol consumption has a favorable effect for fatty liver,but not for MS in Japanese men and women. | Masahide Hamaguchi Takao Kojima Akihiro Ohbora Noriyuki Takeda Michiaki Fukui Takahiro Kato | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012，18，2： | 12 |
| 11 | Promoted differentiation of cynomolgus monkey ES cells into hepatocyte-like cells by co-culture with mouse fetal liver-derived cells显示文摘AIM: To explore whether a co-culture of cynomolgus monkey embryonic stem (cES) cells with embryonic liver cells could promote their differentiation into hepatocytes. METHODS: Mouse fetal liver-derived cells (MFLCs) were prepared as adherent cells from mouse embryos on embryonic d (ED) 14, after which undifferentiated cES cells were co-cultured with MFLCs. The induction of cES cells along a hepatic lineage was examined in MFLC- assisted differentiation, spontaneous differentiation, and growth factors (GF) and chemicals-induced differentiations (GF-induced differentiation) using retinoic acid, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), FGF2, FGF4, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), oncostatin M (OSM), and dexamethasone. RESULTS: The mRNA expression of α-fetoprotein, albumin (ALB), α-1-antitrypsin, and hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α was observed earlier in the differentiating cES cells co-cultured with MFLCs, as compared to cES cells undergoing spontaneous differentiation and those subjected to GF-induced differentiation. The expression of cytochrome P450 7a1, a possible marker for embryonic endoderm-derived mature hepatocytes, was only observed in cES cells that had differentiated in a co-culture with MFLCs. Further, the disappearance of Oct3/4, a representative marker of an undifferentiated state, was noted in cells co-cultured with MFLCs, but not in those undergoing spontaneous or GF-induced differentiation. Immunocytochemical analysis revealed an increased ratio of ALB-immunopositive cells among cES cells co-cultured with MFLCs, while glycogen storageand urea synthesis were also demonstrated. CONCLUSION: MFLCs showed an ability to induce cES cells to differentiate toward hepatocytes. The co-culture system with MFLCs is a useful method for induction of hepatocyte-like cells from undifferentiated cES cells. | Ko Saito Masahide Yoshikawa Yukiteru Ouji Kei Moriya Mariko Nishiofuku Shigehiko Ueda Noriko Hayashi Shigeaki Ishizaka Hiroshi Fukui | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006，12，42： | 11 |
| 12 | Takotsubo cardiomyopathy: Pathophysiology,diagnosis and treatment显示文摘In 1990,takotsubo cardiomyopathy(TCM)was first discovered and reported by a Japanese cardiovascular specialist.Since then,this heart disease has gained worldwide acceptance as an independent disease entity.TCM is an important entity that differs from acute myocardial infarction.It occurs more often in postmenopausal elderly women,is characterized by a transient hypokinesis of the left ventricular(LV)apex,and is associated with emotional or physical stress.Wall motion abnormality of the LV apex is generally transient and resolves within a few days to several weeks.Its prognosis is generally good.However,there are some reports of serious TCM complications,including hypotension,heart failure,ventricular rupture,thrombosis involving the LV apex,and torsade de pointes.It has been suggested that coronary spasm,coronary microvascular dysfunction,catecholamine toxicity and myocarditis might contribute to the pathogenesis of TCM.However,its pathophysiology is not clearly understood. | Kazuo Komamura Miho Fukui Toshihiro Iwasaku Shinichi Hirotani Tohru Masuyama | 2014 | World Journal of Cardiology2014，6，7： | 9 |

| 14 | Differentiation of embryonic stem cells into insulin-producing cells promoted by Nkx2.2 gene transfer显示文摘AIM: To investigate the ability of a genetically altered embryonic stem (ES) cell line to generate insulin-producing cells in vitro following transfer of the Nkx2.2 gene.METHODS: Hamster Nkx2.2 genes were transferred into mouse ES cells. Parental and Nkx2.2-transfected ES cells were initiated toward differentiation in embryoid body (EB)culture for 5 d and the resulting EBs were transferred to an attached culture system. Dithizone (DTZ), a zincchelating agent known to selectively stain pancreatic beta cells, was used to detect insulin-producing cells.The outgrowths were incubated in DTZ solution (final concentration, 100 μg/mL) for 15 min before being examined microscopically. Gene expression of the endocrine pancreatic markers was also analyzed by RT-PCR. In addition, insulin production was determined immunohistochemically and its secretion was examined using an ELISA.RESULTS: DTZ-stained cellular clusters appeared after approximately 14 d in the culture of Nkx2.2-transfected ES cells (Nkx-ES cells), which was as much as 2 wk earlier, than those in the culture of parental ES cells (wt-ES). The frequency of DTZ-positive cells among total cultured cells on day 28 accounted for approximately 1.0% and 0.1% of the Nkx-ES- and wt-ES-derived EB outgrowths, respectively. The DTZ-positive cellular clusters were found to be immunoreactive to insulin, while the gene expressions of pancreatic-duodenal homeobox 1(PDX1), proinsulin 1 and proinsulin 2 were observed in the cultures that contained DTZ-positive cellular clusters.Insulin secretion was also confirmed by ELISA, whereas glucose-dependent secretion was not demonstrated.CONCLUSION: Nkx2.2-transfected ES cells showed an ability to differentiate into insulin-producing cells. | Akira Shiroi Shigehiko Ueda Yukiteru Ouji Ko Saito Kei Moriya Yuko Sugie Hiroshi Fukui Shigeaki Ishizaka Masahide Yoshikawa | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005，11，27： | 9 |
| 15 | Crosstalk between angiogenesis, cytokeratin-18, and insulin resistance in the progression of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis显示文摘AIM: To elucidate the possible crosstalk between angiogenesis, cytokeratin-18 (CK-18), and insulin resistance (IR) especially in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).METHODS: Twenty-eight patients with NASH and 11 with simple fatty liver disease (FL) were enrolled in this study and underwent clinicopathological examination. The measures of angiogenesis, CK-18, and IR employed were CD34-immunopositive vessels, CK-18immunopositive cells, and homeostasis model assessment of IR (HOMA-IR), respectively. The correlations of these factors with NASH were elucidated.RESULTS: Significant development of hepatic neovascularization was observed only in NASH, whereas almost no neovascularization could be observed in FL and healthy liver. The degree of angiogenesis was almost parallel to liver fibrosis development, and both parameters were positively correlated. Similarly, CK-18expression and HOMA-R were signifi cantly increased in NASH as compared with FL and healthy liver. Furthermore, CK-18 and HOMA-IR were also positively correlated with the degree of neovascularization. CONCLUSION: These results indicate that the crosstalk between angiogenesis, CK-18, and IR may play an important role in the onset and progression of NASH. | Mitsuteru Kitade Hitoshi Yoshiji Ryuichi Noguchi Yasuhide Ikenaka Kosuke Kaji Yusaku Shirai Masaharu Yamazaki Masahito Uemura Junichi Yamao Masao Fujimoto Akira Mitoro Masahisa Toyohara Masayoshi Sawai Motoyuki Yoshida Chie Morioka Tatsuhiro Tsujimoto Hideto Kawaratani Hiroshi Fukui | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009，15，41： | 9 |
| 16 | DYNAMICS OF LOCALIZED TRAVELING WAVE CONVECTION IN BINARY FLUID MIXTURE显示文摘The dynamical behavior of a localized traveling wave (LTW) in a binary fluid layer heated from below confined in a rectangular cell with the intermediate aspect ratio г=12 and the separation ratio φ=-0.11 is studied by using the two-dimensional numerical simulation of the full hydrodynamic equations. We find that a counterpropa gating wave (CPW) occurs at the onset of convection and is modulated in space-time. The modulated traveling wave (MTW) plays an important role in the transition to the LTW state, and the LTW state depends on the fluid parameters and exists in a narrow interval of the reduced Rayleigb number. The transition from LTW to an extended traveling wave (ETW) or stationary overturning convection (SOC) state occurs when r exceeds a certain critical value. Our results agree with those observed in experiments. | Ning Li-zhongDepartment of Applied Physics, Fakulty of Engineering, Fukui University, Bunkyo 3-9-1,Fukui 910, JapanYoshifumi HaradaDepartment of Applied Physics, Fakulty of Engineering, Fukui University, Bunkyo 3-9-1,Fukui 910, JapanHideo YahataDepartment | 1998 | Journal of Hydrodynamics1998，10，2： | 8 |
| 17 | What types of early gastric cancer are indicated for endoscopic ultrasonography staging of invasion depth?显示文摘AIM To clarify the diagnostic efficacy and limitations of endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS) and the characteristics of early gastric cancers(EGCs) that are indications for EUS-based assessment of cancer invasion depth.METHODS We retrospectively investigated the cases of 153 EGC patients who underwent conventional endoscopy(CE) and EUS(20 MHz) before treatment.RESULTS We found that 13.7% were 'inconclusive' cases with low-quality EUS images, including all nine of the cases with protruded(0-I)-type EGCs. There was no significant difference in the diagnostic accuracybetween CE and EUS. Two significant independent risk factors for misdiagnosis by EUS were identified-ulcer scarring [UL(+); odds ratio(OR) = 4.49, P = 0.003] and non-indication criteria for endoscopic resection(ER)(OR = 3.02, P = 0.03). In the subgroup analysis, 23.1% of the differentiated-type cancers exhibiting SM massive invasion(SM2) invasion(submucosal invasion ≥ 500 μm) by CE were correctly diagnosed by EUS, and 23.1% of the undifferentiated-type EGCs meeting the expanded-indication criteria for ER were correctly diagnosed by EUS.CONCLUSION There is no need to perform EUS for UL(+) EGCs or 0-I-type EGCs, but EUS may enhance the pretreatment staging of differentiated-type EGCs with SM2 invasion without UL or undifferentiated-type EGCs revealed by CE as meeting the expanded-indication criteria for ER. | Jiro Watari Shigemitsu Ueyama Toshihiko Tomita Hisatomo Ikehara Kazutoshi Hori Ken Hara Takahisa Yamasaki Takuya Okugawa Takashi Kondo Tomoaki Kono Katsuyuki Tozawa Tadayuki Oshima Hirokazu Fukui Hiroto Miwa | 2016 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2016，8，16： | 8 |
| 18 | Histological diagnosis of gastric submucosal tumors: A pilot study of endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy vs mucosal cutting biopsy显示文摘AIM: To compare the usefulness of endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy(EUS-FNAB) without cytology and mucosal cutting biopsy(MCB) in the histological diagnosis of gastric submucosal tumor(SMT).METHODS: We prospectively compared the diagnostic yield, feasibility, and safety of EUS-FNAB and those of MCB based on endoscopic submucosal dissection. The cases of 20 consecutive patients with gastric SMT ≥1 cm in diameter. who underwent both EUS-FNAB and MCB were investigated.RESULTS: The histological diagnoses were gastrointestinal stromal tumors(n = 7), leiomyoma(n =6), schwannoma(n = 2), aberrant pancreas(n = 2), and one case each of glomus tumor, metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma, and no-diagnosis. The tumors' mean size was 23.6 mm. Histological diagnosis was made in 65.0% of the EUS-FNABs and 60.0% of the MCBs, a nonsignificant difference. There were no significant differences in the diagnostic yield concerning the tumor location or tumor size between the two methods. However, diagnostic specimens were significantly more frequently obtained in lesions with intraluminal growth than in those with extraluminal growth by the MCB method(P = 0.01). All four SMTs with extraluminal growth were diagnosed only by EUSFNAB(P = 0.03). No complications were found in either method.CONCLUSION: MCB may be chosen as an alternative diagnostic modality in tumors showing the intraluminal growth pattern regardless of tumor size, whereas EUSFNAB should be performed for SMTs with extraluminal growth. | Hisatomo Ikehara Zhaoliang Li Jiro Watari Masato Taki Tomohiro Ogawa Takahisa Yamasaki Takashi Kondo Fumihiko Toyoshima Tomoaki Kono Katsuyuki Tozawa Yoshio Ohda Toshihiko Tomita Tadayuki Oshima Hirokazu Fukui Ikuo Matsuda Seiichi Hirota Hiroto Miwa | 2015 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2015，7，14： | 7 |
| 19 | Do vasopressin V2 receptor antagonists benefit cirrhotics with refractory ascites?显示文摘Hyponatremia is a frequent complication of advanced cirrhosis with ascites associated with increased morbidity and mortality. It is caused by an impairment in the renal capacity to eliminate solute-free water and is considered to be related to persistent secretionof vasopressin despite low serum osmolality. This nonosmotic release of vasopressin is mediated by the autonomic nervous system, which senses the underfilling of arterial vascular component. This reduction of effective arterial blood volume is closely related to the development of ascites. Although the short-time effects of vasopressin V2 receptor antagonists(vaptans) on hyponatremia and ascites have been repeatedly reported, their effects on the long-term management of cirrhotic ascites have not been established yet. Considering that their effects on water diuresis and their safety are limited by severe underfilling state of patients, cautious approaches with adequate monitoring are needed to advanced cirrhosis. Proper indication, adequate doses and new possibility of combination therapy should be explored in the future controlled study. As hyponatremia is frequent obstacle to ascites management, judicious combination with low-dose diuretics may decrease the incidence of refractory ascites. Although vaptans show much promise in the treatment of advanced cirrhosis, the problem of high cost should be solved for the future. | Hiroshi Fukui | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015，21，41： | 7 |
| 20 | Innate immune reactivity of the liver in rats fed a choline-deficient L-amino-acid-defined diet显示文摘瞄准:调查肿瘤坏死 factor-alpha (TNF-alpha ) 的天生的有免疫力的反应,像使用费的受体 4 (TLR4 ) ,并且在非酒精的 steatohepatitis (NASH ) 的肝的 CD14 为老鼠建模。方法:男 F344 老鼠被喂一本胆碱缺乏的 L-amino-acid-defined (CDAA ) 食谱。老鼠在食谱的 4 或 8 wk 以后被打死,并且他们的肝为免疫被移开组织化学的调查和 RNA 抽取。肝标本是为 TNF-alpha, TLR4,和 CD14 染色的免疫。TNF-alpha, TLR4,和 CD14 的基因表情被 reverse-transcriptase 聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR ) 决定。Kupffer 房间被 Percoll 坡度远心沉淀从肝孤立,并且当时是有教养的测量 TNF-alpha 生产。结果:在老鼠作为与控制相比显著地增加了的 CDAA-fed 的 TNF-alpha 的浆液和肝层次组织,,与 steatohepatitis 的前进做了免疫组织化学的值和 TNF-alpha, TLR4,和 CD14 的基因表达式。从 CDAA-fed 老鼠的孤立的 Kupffer 房间的 TNF-alpha 生产被脂肪的多糖刺激提高。结论:TNF-alpha, TLR4,和 CD14 的表情在 NASH 模型增加了,建议 TLR4 和调停 CD14 的内毒素肝损坏可以也发生在 NASH。 | Hideto Kawaratani Tatsuhiro Tsujimoto Toshiyuki Kitazawa Mitsuteru Kitade Hitoshi Yoshiji Masahito Uemura Hiroshi Fukui | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008，14，43： | 6 |
