1Acute-on-chronic liver failure:Pathogenesis,prognostic factors and management显示文摘Acute-on-chronic liver failure(ACLF) is increasingly recognized as a complex syndrome that is reversiblein many cases. It is characterized by an acute deterioration of liver function in the background of a pre-existing chronic liver disease often associated with a high short-term mortality rate. Organ failure(OF) is always associated, and plays a key role in determining the course, and the outcome of the disease. The definition of ACLF remains controversial due to its overall ambiguity, with several disparate criteria among various associations dedicated to the study of liver diseases. Although the precise pathogenesis needs to be clarified, it appears that an altered host response to injury might be a contributing factor caused by immune dysfunction, ultimately leading to a pro-inflammatory status, and eventually to OF. The PIRO concept(Predisposition, Insult, Response and Organ Failure) has been proposed to better approach the underlying mechanisms. It is accepted that ACLF is a different and specific form of liver failure, where a precipitating event is always involved, even though it cannot always be ascertained. According to several studies, infections and active alcoholism often trigger ACLF. Viral hepatitis, gastrointestinal haemorrhage, or drug induced liver injury, which can also provoke the syndrome. This review mainly focuses on the physiopathology and prognostic aspects. We believe these features are essential to further understanding and providing the rationale for improveddisease management strategies.Sara Blasco-Algora José Masegosa-Ataz María Luisa Gutiérrez-García Sonia Alonso-López Conrado M Fernández-Rodríguez 2015World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,42:45
2Anther and pollen development:A conserved developmental pathway显示文摘Pollen development is a critical step in plant development that is needed for successful breeding and seed formation.Manipulation of male fertility has proved a useful trait for hybrid breeding and increased crop yield.However,although there is a good understanding developing of the molecular mechanisms of anther and pollen anther development in model species,such as Arabidopsis and rice,little is known about the equivalent processes in important crops.Nevertheless the onset of increased genomic information and genetic tools is facilitating translation of information from the models to crops,such as barley and wheat;this will enable increased understanding and manipulation of these pathways for agricultural improvement.José Fernndez Gmez Behzad Talle Zoe A Wilson 2015Journal of Integrative Plant Biology2015,57,11:33
3Risk factors associated with the development of ischemic colitis显示文摘AIM:To ascertain the role of cardiovascular risk factors,cardiovascular diseases,standard treatments and other diseases in the development of ischemic colitis(IC).METHODS:A retrospective,case-control study was designed,using matched data and covering 161 incident cases of IC who required admission to our hospital from 1998 through 2003.IC was diagnosed on the basis of endoscopic findings and diagnostic or compatible his-tology.Controls were randomly chosen from a cohort of patients who were admitted in the same period and required a colonoscopy,excluding those with diagnosis of colitis.Cases were matched with controls(ratio 1:2),by age and sex.A conditional logistic regression was performed.RESULTS:A total of 483 patients(161 cases,322 con-trols)were included;mean age 75.67±10.03 years,55.9%women.The principal indications for colonos-copy in the control group were lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage(35.4%),anemia(33.9%),abdominal pain(19.9%)and diarrhea(9.6%).The endoscopic findings in this group were hemorrhoids(25.5%),diverticular disease(30.4%),polyps(19.9%)and colorectal cancer(10.2%).The following variables were associated with IC in the univariate analysis:arterial hypertension(P= 0.033);dyslipidemia(P<0.001);diabetes mellitus(P =0.025);peripheral arterial disease(P=0.004);heart failure(P=0.026);treatment with hypotensive drugs(P=0.023);angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors;(P=0.018);calcium channel antagonists(P=0.028);and acetylsalicylic acid(ASA)(P<0.001).Finally,the following variables were independently associated with the development of IC:diabetes mellitus[odds ratio(OR)1.76,95%confidence interval(CI):1.001-3.077,P=0.046];dyslipidemia(OR 2.12,95%CI:1.26-3.57,P=0.004);heart failure(OR 3.17,95%CI:1.31-7.68,P=0.01);peripheral arterial disease(OR 4.1,95%CI:1.32-12.72,P=0.015);treatment with digoxin(digitalis)(OR 0.27,95%CI:0.084-0.857,P=0.026);and ASA(OR 1.97,95%CI:1.16-3.36,P=0.012).CONCLUSION:The development of an episode of IC was independently associated with diabetes,dyslipid-emia,presence of heart failure,peripheral arterial dis-ease and treatment with digoxin or ASA.Joaquín Cubiella Fernández Luisa Núez Calvo Elvira González Vázquez Maria Jesús García García Maria Teresa Alves Pérez Isabel Martínez Silva Javier Fernández Seara 2010World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,36:27
4在 laparoscopic 肝外科的快轨道的节目: 理论或事实?显示文摘 AIM:To analyze our results after the introduction of a fast-track(FT) program after laparoscopic liver surgery in our Hepatobiliarypancreatic Unit.METHODS:All patients(43) undergoing laparoscopic liver surgery between March 2004 and March 2010 were included and divided into two consecutive groups:Control group(CG) from March 2004 until December 2006 with traditional perioperative cares(17 patients) and fast-track group(FTG) from January 2007 until March 2010 with FT program cares(26 patients).Primary endpoint was the influence of the program on the postoperative stay,the amount of re-admissions,morbidity and mortality.Secondarily we considered duration of surgery,use of drains,conversion to open surgery,intensive cares needs and transfusion.RESULTS:Both groups were homogeneous in age and sex.No differences in technique,time of surgery or conversion to open surgery were found,but more malignant diseases were operated in the FTG,and then transfusions were higher in FTG.Readmissions and morbidity were similar in both groups,without mortality.Postoperative stay was similar,with a median of 3 for CG vs 2.5 for FTG.However,the 80.8% of patients from FTG left the hospital within the first 3 d after surgery(58.8% for CG).CONCLUSION:The introduction of a FT program after laparoscopic liver surgery improves the recovery of patients without increasing complications or re-admissions,which leads to a reduction of the stay and costs.Belinda Sánchez-Pérez José Manuel Aranda-Narváez Miguel Angel Suárez-Muoz Moises elAdel-delFresno José Luis Fernández-Aguilar Jose Antonio Pérez-Daga Ysabel Pulido-Roa Julio Santoyo-Santoyo 2012World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery2012,4,11:18
5Assessment of drug-induced hepatotoxicity in clinical practice: A challenge for gastroenterologists显示文摘Currently, pharmaceutical preparations are serious contributors to liver disease; hepatotoxicity ranking as the most frequent cause for acute liver failure and post-commercialization regulatory decisions. The diagnosis of hepatotoxicity remains a difficult task because of the lack of reliable markers for use in general clinical practice. To incriminate any given drug in an episode of liver dysfunction is a step-by-step process that requires a high degree of suspicion, compatible chronology, awareness of the drug’s hepatotoxic potential, the exclusion of alternative causes of liver damage and the ability to detect the presence of subtle data that favors a toxic etiology. This process is time-consuming and the final result is frequently inaccurate. Diagnostic algorithms may add consistency to the diagnostic process by translating the suspicion into a quantitative score. Such scales are useful since they provide a framework that emphasizes the features that merit attention in cases of suspected hepatic adverse reaction as well. Current efforts in collecting bona fide cases of drug-induced hepatotoxicity will make refinements of existing scales feasible. It is now relatively easy to accommodate relevant data within the scoring system and to delete low-impact items. Efforts should also be directed toward the development of an abridged instrument for use in evaluating suspected drug-induced hepatotoxicity at the very beginning of the diagnosis and treatment process when clinical decisions need to be made. The instrument chosen would enable a confident diagnosis to be made on admission of the patient and treatment to be fine-tuned as further information is collected.Raúl J Andrade Mercedes Robles Alejandra Fernández-Castaer Susana López-Ortega M Carmen López-Vega M Isabel Lucena 2007World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,3:18
6在没有危险因素的情况下,正常的低密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平与亚临床动脉粥样硬化相关显示文摘普遍认为缺乏心血管病危险因素(cardiovascular risk factors,CVRF)人群的动脉粥样硬化发生风险低,然而,无CVRF的个体仍然有心血管事件发生。为了确定无CVRF个体中亚临床动脉粥样硬化的预测因子,Fernández-Friera L Fuster V López-Melgar B Oliva B García-Ruiz JM Mendiguren J Bueno H Pocock S Ibánez B Fernández-Ortiz A Sanz J 刘莉 叶鹏 2017中华高血压杂志2017,25,12:17
7Contrast-enhanced ultrasound in diagnosis and characterization of focal hepatic lesions显示文摘The extensive use of imaging techniques in differential diagnosis of abdominal conditions and screening of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with chronic hepatic diseases,has led to an important increase in identification of focal liver lesions.The development of contrastenhanced ultrasound(CEUS) opens a new window in the diagnosis and follow-up of these lesions.This technique offers obvious advantages over the computed tomography and magnetic resonance,without a decrease in its sensitivity and specificity.The new second generation contrast agents,due to their intravascular distribution,allow a continuous evaluation of the enhancement pattern,which is crucial in characterization of liver lesions.The dual blood supply in the liver shows three different phases,namely arterial,portal and late phases.The enhancement during portal and late phases can give important information about the lesion's behavior.Each liver lesion has a different enhancement pattern that makes possible an accurate approach to their diagnosis.The role of emerging techniques as a contrastenhanced three-dimensional US is also discussed.In this article,the advantages,indications and technique employed during CEUS and the different enhancement patterns of most benign and malignant focal liver lesions are discussed.Inés Gómez Molins Juan Manuel Fernández Font Juan Carrero álvaro Jose Luís Lledó Navarro Marta Fernández Gil Conrado M Fernández Rodríguez 2010World Journal of Radiology2010,2,12:14
8Insulin resistance is associated with subclinical vascular disease in humans显示文摘Insulin resistance is associated with subclinical vascular disease that is not justified by conventional cardiovascular risk factors,such as smoking or hypercholesterolemia.Vascular injury associated to insulin resistance involves functional and structural damage to the arterial wall that includes impaired vasodilation in response to chemical mediators,reduced distensibility of the arterial wall(arterial stiffness),vascular calcification,and increased thickness of the arterial wall.Vascular dysfunction associated to insulin resistance is present in asymptomatic subjects and predisposes to cardiovascular diseases,such as heart failure,ischemic heart disease,stroke,and peripheral vascular disease.Structural and functional vascular disease associated to insulin resistance is highly predictive of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.Its pathogenic mechanisms remain undefined.Prospective studies have demonstrated that animal protein consumption increases the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and predisposes to type 2 diabetes(T2D)whereas vegetable protein intake has the opposite effect.Vascular disease linked to insulin resistance begins to occur early in life.Children and adolescents with insulin resistance show an injured arterial system compared with youth free of insulin resistance,suggesting that insulin resistance plays a crucial role in the development of initial vascular damage.Prevention of the vascular dysfunction related to insulin resistance should begin early in life.Before the clinical onset of T2D,asymptomatic subjects endure a long period of time characterized by insulin resistance.Latent vascular dysfunction begins to develop during this phase,so that patients with T2D are at increased cardiovascular risk long before the diagnosis of the disease.María M Adeva-Andany Eva Ameneiros-Rodríguez Carlos Fernández-Fernández Alberto Domínguez-Montero Raquel Funcasta-Calderón 2019World Journal of Diabetes2019,10,2:14
9Potential effects of curcumin on peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor-γ in vitro and in vivo显示文摘Natural peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ(PPAR-γ) agonists are found in food and may be important for health through their anti-inflammatory properties. Curcumin(Cur) is a bright yellow spice, derived from the rhizome of Curcuma longa Linn. It has been shown to have many biological properties that appear to operate through diverse mechanisms. Some of these potentially beneficial effects of Cur are due to activation of the nuclear transcription factor PPAR-γ. It is reported(using in vitro and in vivo models) that Cur plays a potential role against several diseases. In this review article, we present the current literature on the effects of Cur on the modulation of inflammatory processes that are mediated through PPAR-γ.Mohsen Mazidi Ehsan Karimi Mohsen Meydani Majid Ghayour-Mobarhan Gordon A Ferns 2016World Journal of Methodology2016,6,1:13
10抗结核药物肝毒性反应的危险因素及其影响显示文摘背景:肝毒性反应是抗结核药物(下简称ATD)最严重的不良反应之一。虽然已有许多关于肝毒性反应危险因素的报道,但关于肝毒性反应严重程度的影响尚无系统研究。目的:评估肝毒性反应的危险因素(包括高龄、慢性肝病、酗酒或滥用药物或营养不良)对ATD所致肝毒性反应严重性的影响。设计:对1998年1月至2002年7月期间在结核科门诊接受异烟肼、利福平、吡嗪酰胺治疗的471例活动性结核病人进行前瞻性队列分析。根据ATD所致肝毒性反应危险因素的暴露情况评价肝毒性反应的发生率及其严重性。结果:危险因素暴露组ATD所致肝毒性反应(血清转氨酶>3倍的正常上限值)的发生率为18.2%(42/231例),而对照组为5.8%(14/240例),(OR=3.5;95%CI:1.9-6.7;P<0.001)。暴露组的严重肝毒性反应(血清转氨酶>10倍的正常上限值)发生率为6.9%(16/231),而对照组为0.4%(1/240)(OR=17.7;95%CI:2.3-135;P<0.001)。结论:肝毒性反应危险因素暴露组病人的ATD所致肝炎显著多见且较为严重。A.

12Helicobacter pylori infection as a cause of iron deficiency anaemia of unknown origin显示文摘AIM: To assess the aetiological role of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in adult patients with ironrefractory or iron-dependent anaemia of previously unknown origin. METHODS: Consecutive patients with chronic irondeficient anaemia (IDA) with H. pylori infection and a negative standard work-up were prospectively evaluated. All of them had either iron refractoriness or iron dependency. Response to H. pylori eradication was assessed at 6 and 12 mo from follow-up. H. pylori infection was considered to be the cause of the anaemia when a complete anaemia resolution without iron supplements was observed after eradication. RESULTS: H. pylori was eradicated in 88 of the 89 patients. In the non-eradicated patient the four eradicating regimens failed. There were violations of protocol in 4 patients, for whom it was not possible to ascertain the cause of the anaemia. Thus, 84 H. pylori eradicated patients (10 men; 74 women) were available to assess the effect of eradication on IDA. H. pylori infection was considered to be the aetiology of IDA in 32 patients (38.1%; 95%CI: 28.4%-48.8%). This was more frequent in men/postmenopausal women than in premenopausal women (75% vs 23.3%; P < 0.0001) with an OR of 9.8 (95%CI: 3.3-29.6). In these patients, anaemia resolution occurred in the first follow-up visit at 6 mo, and no anaemia or iron deficiency relapse was observed after a mean follow-up of 21 ± 2 mo. CONCLUSION: Gastric H. pylori infection is a frequent cause of iron-refractory or iron-dependent anaemia of previously unknown origin in adult patients.Helena Monzón Montserrat Forné Maria Esteve Mercé Rosinach Carme Loras Jorge C Espinós Josep M Viver Antonio Salas Fernando Fernández-Baares 2013World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,26:13
13Pathogenesis of occult chronic hepatitis B virus infection显示文摘Occult hepatitis B infection(OBI) is characterized by hepatitis B virus(HBV) DNA in serum in the absence of hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg) presenting HBsAg-negative and anti-HBc positive serological patterns.Occult HBV status is associated in some cases with mutant viruses undetectable by HBsAg assays;but more frequently it is due to a strong suppression of viral replication and gene expression.OBI is an entity with world-wide diffusion.The failure to detect HBsAg,despite the persistence of the viral DNA,is due in most cases to the strong suppression of viral replication and gene expression that characterizes this'occult'HBV infection;although the mechanisms responsible for suppression of HBV are not well understood.The majority of OBI cases are secondary to overt HBV infection and represent a residual low viremia level suppressed by a strong immune response together with histological derangements which occurred during acute or chronic HBV infection.Much evidence suggests that it can favour the progression of liver fibrosis and the development of hepatocellular carcinoma.Rocio Aller de la Fuente María L Gutiérrez Javier Garcia-Samaniego Conrado Fernández-Rodriguez Jose Luis Lledó Gregorio Castellano 2011World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,12:12
14Alcoholism: A systemic proinflammatory condition显示文摘Excessive ethanol consumption affects virtually any organ,both by indirect and direct mechanisms.Considerable research in the last two decades has widened the knowledge about the paramount importance of proinflammatory cytokines and oxidative damage in the pathogenesis of many of the systemic manifestations of alcoholism.These cytokines derive primarily from activated Kupffer cells exposed to Gram-negative intestinal bacteria,which reach the liver in supra-physiological amounts due to ethanol-mediated increased gut permeability.Reactive oxygen species(ROS)that enhance the inflammatory response are generated both by activation of Kupffer cells and by the direct metabolic effects of ethanol.The effects of this increased cytokine secretion and ROS generation lie far beyond liver damage.In addition to the classic consequences of endotoxemia associated with liver cirrhosis that weredescribed several decades ago,important research in the last ten years has shown that cytokines may also induce damage in remote organs such as brain,bone,muscle,heart,lung,gonads,peripheral nerve,and pancreas.These effects are even seen in alcoholics without significant liver disease.Therefore,alcoholism can be viewed as an inflammatory condition,a concept which opens the possibility of using new therapeutic weapons to treat some of the complications of this devastating and frequent disease.In this review we examine some of the most outstanding consequences of the altered cytokine regulation that occurs in alcoholics in organs other than the liver.Emilio González-Reimers Francisco Santolaria-Fernández María Candelaria Martín-González Camino María Fernández-Rodríguez Geraldine Quintero-Platt 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,40:12
15Different patterns of intestinal response to injury after arterial,venous or arteriovenous occlusion in rats显示文摘AIM:To investigate the differences in injury patterns caused by arterial, venous or arteriovenous mesenteric occlusion.METHODS: Male Wistar rats were separated equally into four groups. Occlusion was performed by clamping the superior mesenteric artery (A), the mesenteric vein (V) or both (AV) for 30 min, followed by 60 min of reperfusion. A control group received sham surgery only. Intestinal sections were examined for histological damage and serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), endothelin-1 (ET-1), P-selectin, antithrombin (AT) and soluble intracellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) concentrations were measured. RESULTS: All groups showed signif icant mucosal injury compared to controls. Furthermore, mucosal injury was significantly more severe in the V and AV groupscompared to the A group (3.6±0.55, 3.4±0.55 and 2±0.71, respectively, P=0.01). ICAM-1 was similarly elevated in all groups, with no significant differences between the groups. P-selectin levels were significantly elevated in the V and AV groups but not the A group (1.4±0.5 ng/mL, 2.52±0.9 ng/mL and 0.02±0.01 ng/mL, respectively, P=0.01) and ET-1 was significantly elevated in the A and V groups but not the AV group (0.32±0.04 pg/mL, 0.36±0.05 pg/mL and 0.29±0.03 pg/mL, respectively, P=0.01) compared to sham controls. AT CONCLUSION:Different patterns of response to ischemia/reperfusion are associated with venous, arterial or arteriovenous occlusion. Venous and arteriovenous occlusion was associated with the most severe alterations.Francisco Javier Guzmán-de la Garza Carlos Rodrigo Cámara-Lemarroy Gabriela Alarcón-Galván Paula Cordero-Pérez Linda Elsa Muoz-Espinosa Nancy Esthela Fernández-Garza 2009World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,31:10
16Planetary Gear Profile Modification Design Based on Load Sharing Modelling显示文摘In order to satisfy the increasing demand on high performance planetary transmissions, an important line of research is focused on the understanding of some of the underlying phenomena involved in this mechanical system. Through the development of models capable of reproduce the system behavior, research in this area contributes to improve gear transmission insight, helping developing better maintenance practices and more efficient design processes. A planetary gear model used for the design of profile modifications ratio based on the levelling of the load sharing ratio is presented. The gear profile geometry definition, following a vectorial approach that mimics the real cutting process of gears, is thoroughly described. Teeth undercutting and hypotrochoid definition are implicitly considered, and a procedure for the incorporation of a rounding arc at the tooth tip in order to deal with corner contacts is described. A procedure for the modeling of profile deviations is presented, which can be used for the introduction of both manufacturing errors and designed profile modifications. An easy and flexible implementation of the profile deviation within the planetary model is accomplished based on the geometric overlapping. The contact force calculation and dynamic implementation used in the model are also introduced, and parameters from a real transmission for agricultural applications are presented for the application example. A set of reliefs is designed based on the levelling of the load sharing ratio for the example transmission, and finally some other important dynamic factors of the transmission are analyzed to assess the changes in the dynamic behavior with respect to the non-modified case. Thus, the main innovative aspect of the proposed planetary transmission model is the capacity of providing a simulated load sharing ratio which serves as design variable for the calculation of the tooth profile modifications.IGLESIAS Miguel FERNáNDEZ DEL RINCóN Alfonso DE-JUAN Ana Magdalena GARCIA Pablo DIEZ Alberto VIADERO Fernando 2015Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering2015,28,4:9
17Prevention of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with chronic hepatitis B显示文摘Patients with chronic hepatitis B are at significant risk for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). Globally,over half a million people each year are diagnosed with HCC,with marked geographical variations. Despite overwhelming evidence for a causal role of hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection in the development of HCC and a well-established relationship between high baseline hepatitis B viral load and cumulative risk of HCC,the molecular basis for this association has not been fully elucidated. In addition,a beneficial role for antiviral therapy in preventing the development of HCC has been difficult to establish. This review examines the biological and molecular mechanisms of HBV-related hepatocarcinogenesis,recent results on the effect of modern nucleos(t)ides on the rate of HCC development in high risk HBV cohorts and the potential mechanisms by which long-term antiviral therapy with potent inhibitors of HBV replication might reduce the risk of HCC in patients with chronic hepatitis B. Although evidence from randomized controlled trials shows the favourable effects of antiviral agentsin achieving profound and durable suppression of HBV DNA levels while improving liver function and histology,robust evidence of other long-term clinical outcomes,such as prevention of HCC,are limited.Conrado M Fernández-Rodríguez María Luisa Gutiérrez-García 2014World Journal of Gastrointestinal Pharmacology and Therapeutics2014,5,3:9
18Management of occult hepatitis B virus infection:An update for the clinician显示文摘Occult hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection(OBI) is defined by the presence of HBV DNA in the liver tissue of individuals who test negative for hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg).Patients who have recovered from acute hepatitis B can carry HBV genomes for a long time and show histological patterns of mild necro-inflammation,even fibrosis,years after the resolution of acute hepatitis,without showing any clinical or biochemical evidence of liver disease.At least in conditions of immunocompetence,OBI is inoffensive itself,but when other relevant causes of liver damage are present it might make the course of the liver disease worse.The risk of HBV transmission through transfusion is related to blood donations negative for HBsAg that have been collected during the pre-seroconversion period or during chronic OBI.Use of HBV nucleic acid amplification testing and multivalent anti-HBs antibodies in the HBsAg assays is recommended for detection of true and false OBI,respectively.It is not known if prior hepatitis B immunization with an optimal anti-HBs response in cases of HBV transmission through organ transplantation can effectively modulate or abort the infection.Use of anti-viral agents as prophylaxis in patients with serological evidence of past HBV infection prevents reactivation of OBI after transplantation in most cases.Reactivation of OBI has been observed in other conditions that cause immunosuppression,in which antiviral therapy could be delayed until the HBV DNA or HBsAg becomes detectable.OBI might contribute to the progression of liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma development in patients with chronic liver disease.JoséLuis Lledó Conrado Fernández María Luisa Gutiérrez Sara Ocaa 2011World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,12:9
19Liver transplantation for cholangiocarcinoma:Current status and new insights显示文摘Cholangiocarcinoma is a malignant tumor of the biliary system that can be classified into intrahepatic(i CCA),perihiliar(ph CCA) and distal. Initial experiences with orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT) for patientswith i CCA and ph CCA had very poor results and this treatment strategy was abandoned. In the last decade,thanks to a strict selection process and a neoadjuvant chemoradiation protocol,the results of OLT for patients with non-resectable phC CA have been shown to be excellent and this strategy has been extended worldwide in selected transplant centers. Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is a growing disease in most countries and can be diagnosed both in cirrhotic and in non-cirrhotic livers. Even though OLT is contraindicated in most centers,recent investigations analyzing patients that were transplanted with a misdiagnosis of HCC and were found to have an iC CA have shown encouraging results. There is some information suggesting that patients with early stages of the disease could benefit from OLT. In this review we analyze the current stateof-the-art of OLT for cholangiocarcinoma as well as the new insights and future perspectives.Gonzalo Sapisochín Elena Fernández de Sevilla Juan Echeverri Ramón Charco 2015World Journal of Hepatology2015,7,22:8
20Modulation of faecal metagenome in Crohn's disease:Role of microRNAs as biomarkers显示文摘BACKGROUND The gut microbiota plays a key role in the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis and the development and activation of the host immune system. It has been shown that commensal bacterial species can regulate the expression of host genes. 16 S rRNA gene sequencing has shown that the microbiota in inflammatory bowel disease(IBD) is abnormal and characterized by reduced diversity. Micro RNAs(miRNAs) have been explored as biomarkers and therapeutic targets, since they are able to regulate specific genes associated with Crohn's disease(CD). In this work, we aim to investigate the composition of gut microbiota of active treatment-na?ve adult CD patients, with miRNA profile from gut microbiota.AIM To investigate the composition of gut microbiota of active treatment-na?ve adult CD patients, with miRNA profile from gut microbiota.METHODS Patients attending the outpatient clinics at Valme University Hospital without relevant co-morbidities were matched according to age and gender. Faecal samples of newonset CD patients, free of treatment, and healthy controls were collected. Faecal samples were homogenized, and DNA was amplified by PCR using primers directed to the 16 S bacterial rRNA gene. Pyrosequencing was performed using GS-Junior platform. For sequence analysis, MGRAST server with the database Ribosomal Project was used. MiRNA profile and their relative abundance were analyzed by quantitative PCR.RESULTS Microbial community was characterized using 16 S rRNA gene sequencing in 29 samples(n = 13 CD patients, and n = 16 healthy controls). The mean Shannon diversity was higher in the healthy control population compared to CD group(5.5 vs 3.7). A reduction in Firmicutes and an increase in Bacteroidetes were found. Clostridia class was also significantly reduced in CD. Principal components analysis showed a grouping pattern, identified in most of the subjects in both groups, showing a marked difference between control and CD groups. A functional metabolic study showed that a lower metabolism of carbohydrates(P = 0.000) was found in CD group, while the metabolism of lipids was increased. In CD patients, three miRNAs were induced in affected mucosa: mir-144(6.2 ± 1.3 fold), mir-519(21.8 ± 3.1) and mir-211(2.3 ± 0.4). CONCLUSION Changes in microbial function in active non-treated CD subjects and three miRNAs in affected vs non-affected mucosa have been found. miRNAs profile may serve as a biomarker.María Rojas-Feria Teresa Romero-García Jose Angel Fernández Caballero-Rico Helena Pastor Ramírez Marta Avilés-Recio Manuel Castro-Fernandez Natalia Chueca Porcuna Manuel Romero-Gomez Federico García Lourdes Grande JoséA Del Campo 2018World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,46:7
