| 1 | Spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy with conservation of the splenic artery and vein显示文摘Preservation of the spleen at distal pancreatectomy has recently attracted considerable attention.Since our first successful trial,spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy with conservation of the splenic artery and vein for tumors of the pancreas and chronic pancreatitis has been performed more frequently.The technique for spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy with conservation of the splenic artery and vein are outlined.The splenic vein is identified behind the pancreas and within the thin connective tissue membrane.The connective tissue membrane is cut longitudinally above the splenic vein.An important issue is to remove the splenic vein from the body of the pancreas toward the spleen,since a different approach may be very difficult.The pancreas is preferably removed from the splenic artery toward the head of the pancreas itself.This procedure is much easier than removing the pancreas from the vein side.One patient had undergone distal gastrectomy for duodenal ulcer,with reconstruction by Billroth Ⅱ tehcnique.If distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy had been performed for the lesion of the distal pancreas at the time,the residual stomach would also have to be resected.The potential damage done to the patient by reconstruction of the gastrointestinal tract in combination with distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy would have been much greater than with distal pancreatectomy only with preservation of the spleen and residual stomach.Benign lesions as well as low-grade malignancy of the body and tail of the pancreas may be a possible indication for this procedure. | Wataru Kimura Toshiyuki Moriya Jinfeng Ma Yukinori Kamio Toshihiro Watanabe Mitsukiro Yano Hiroto Fujimoto Koji Tezuka Ichiro Hirai Akira Fuse | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007，13，10： | 24 |
| 2 | 青光眼视网膜神经纤维层厚度的光学相干断层扫描纵向评估显示文摘目的:纵向评估光学相干断层扫描(OCT)视盘周围神经纤维层厚度测量,并将这些检查与临床状态和自动视野计检查作横向比较。
方法:对参与前瞻性纵向研究的青光眼或疑似青光眼患者64只眼(37例)作回顾性评估。所有参与者每6个月作一次全面的临床评估、视野检查和OCT。视野进展按可重复性测量的视野平均偏差至少比基线降低2dB,OCT进展按可重复性测量视网膜神经纤维层平均厚度至少变薄20pro。
结果:每个患者在中位值为4.7年的随访中有5个可使用的OCT扫描。青光眼和疑似青光眼患者之间视网膜神经纤维层厚度线性回归斜度的差异对所有变量均不显著;然而,Kaplan-Meier生存曲线分析显示视野比OCT测量有较高的进展率。在随访期间66%的眼是稳定的。22%只有OCT进展,9%单有视野平均偏差进展。3%视野和OCT都有进展。
结论:OCT比全自动视野计对辨别青光眼进展有更大的可能性。这可能反映OCT的敏感性或在常规方法发现之前其真实损害就能被OCT发现。 | Gadi Wollstein Joel S. Schuman Lori L. Price Ali Aydin Paul C. Stark Ellen Hertzmark Edward Lai Hiroshi Ishikawa Cynthia Mattox James G. Fujimoto Lelia A. Paunescu 刘春(译) 朱志忠(校) | 2005 | 美国医学会眼科杂志(中文版)2005，17，4： | 14 |
| 3 | Changes of gastric ulcer bleeding in the metropolitan area of Japan显示文摘BACKGROUND The two main causes of gastric ulcer bleeding are Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)infection and ulcerogenic medicines,although the number of cases caused by each may vary with age.In Japan,the rate of H.pylori infection has fallen over the last decade and the number of prescriptions for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs)and antithrombotic drugs is increasing as the population ages.Methods of treatment for gastric ulcer bleeding have advanced with the advent of hemostatic forceps and potassium-competitive acid blocker(P-CAB).Thus,causes and treatments for gastric ulcer bleeding have changed over the last decade.AIM To examine the trends of gastric ulcer bleeding over 10 years in the metropolitan area of Japan.METHODS This is a single-center retrospective study.A total of 564 patients were enrolled from inpatients admitted to our hospital with gastric ulcer bleeding between 2006 and 2016.Age,medication history,H.pylori infection,method of treatment,rate of rebleeding,and the length of hospitalization were analyzed.Factors associated with gastric ulcer bleeding were evaluated using Fisher’s exact test,Pearson’s Chi-squared test or Student’s t-test as appropriate.The Jonckheere-Terpstra test was used to evaluate trends.A per-protocol analysis was used to examine the rate of H.pylori infection.RESULTS There was a significant increase in the mean age over time(P<0.01).The rate of H.pylori infection tended to decrease over the study period(P=0.10),whereas the proportion of patients taking antithrombotic agents or NSAIDs tended to increase(P=0.07).Over time,the use of NSAIDs and antithrombotic drugs increased with age.By contrast,the rate of H.pylori infection during the study period fell with age.H.pylori-induced ulcers accounted for the majority of cases in younger patients(<70 years old);however,the rate decreased with age(P<0.01).The method of treatment trend has changed significantly over time.The main method of endoscopic hemostasis has changed from clipping and injection to forceps coagulation(P<0.01),and frequently prescribed medicines have changed from proton pump inhibitor to P-CAB(P<0.01).The rate of rebleeding during the latter half of the study was significantly lower than that in the first half.CONCLUSION These trends,gastric ulcers caused by ulcerogenic drugs were increasing with age and H.pylori-induced ulcers were more common in younger patients,were observed. | Yoko Kubosawa Hideki Mori Satoshi Kinoshita Yoshihiro Nakazato Ai Fujimoto Masahiro Kikuchi Toshihiro Nishizawa Masayuki Suzuki Hidekazu Suzuki | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019，25，42： | 10 |
| 4 | Efficient rendering of breaking waves using MPS method显示文摘This paper proposes an approach for rendering breaking waves out of large-scale of particle-based simulation. Moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) is used to solve the governing equation, and 2D simulation is expanded to 3D representation by giving motion variation using fractional Brownian motion (fBm). The waterbody surface is reconstructed from the outlines of 2D simulation. The splashing effect is computed according to the properties of the particles. Realistic features of the wave are ren-dered on GPU, including the reflective and refractive effect and the effect of splash. Experiments showed that the proposed method can simulate large scale breaking waves efficiently. | WANG Qiang ZHENG Yao CHEN Chun FUJIMOTO Tadahiro CHIBA Norishige | 2006 | Journal of Zhejiang University-Science A(Applied Physics & Engineering)2006，7，6： | 9 |
| 5 | Efficacy of multislice computed tomography for gastroenteric and hepatic surgeries显示文摘AIM: To determine the efficacy of multislice CT for gastroenteric and hepatic surgery.METHODS: Dual-phase helical computed tomography was performed in 50 of 51 patients who underwent gastroenteric and hepatic surgeries. Twenty-eight, eighteen and four patients suffering from colorectal cancer, gastric cancer,and liver cancer respectively underwent colorectal surgery (laparoscopic surgery: 6 cases), gastrectomy, and hepatectomy. Three-dimensional computed tomography imaging of the inferior mesenteric artery, celiac artery and hepatic artery was performed. And in the follow-up examination of postoperative patients, multiplanar reconstruction image was made in case of need.RESULTS: Scans in 50 patients were technically satisfactory and included in the analysis. Depiction of major visceral arteries, which were important for surgery and other treatments, could be done in all patients.Preoperative visualization of the left colic artery and sigmoidal arteries, the celiac artery and its branches, and hepatic artery was very useful to lymph node dissection,the planning of a reservoir and hepatectomy. And multiplanar reconstruction image was helpful to diagnosis for the postoperative follow-up of patients.CONCLUSION: Three-dimensional volume rendering or multiplanar reconstruction imaging performed by multislice computed tomography was very useful for gastroenteric and hepatic surgeries. | Hiroshi Ohtani Hidemi Kawajiri Yuichi Arimoto Koichi Ohno Yasuhisa Fujimoto Hiroko Oba Kenji Adachi Masaya Hirano Shoichi Terakawa Mitsuo Tsubakimoto | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005，11，10： | 9 |
| 6 | 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 |
| 7 | Cholangiopancreatography troubleshooting:the usefulness of endoscopic retrieval of migrated biliary and pancreatic stents显示文摘BACKGROUND:Stent migration in the hepatopancreatic duct might arise as one of the rare complications associated with biliary or pancreatic stenting.Although there are some procedures to retrieve the migrated stent,including surgical,percutaneous,and endoscopic approaches,endoscopy should be attempted first because it is least invasive.This study set out to evaluate the usefulness of endoscopic retrieval of migrated biliary and pancreatic stents.METHODS:Plastic stents that migrated in the bile duct(35 patients)or pancreatic duct(2)were retrieved with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.Devices used were snare forceps,a basket catheter,grasping forceps,biopsy forceps,a balloon catheter,and the Soehendra stent retriever.RESULTS:Endoscopic retrieval of migrated stents was performed successfully in 36(97.0%)of the 37 patients.The devices utilized for successful treatment were basket catheter(13 patients),grasping forceps(10),snare forceps(8),balloon catheter(3),biopsy forceps(1),and the Soehendra stent retriever(1).The unsuccessfully treated patient with chronic pancreatitis underwent surgery since the guide wire did not move forward due to bile duct stenosis,and there was also duodenal stenosis.One patient developed mild pancreatitis after withdrawal of the stent;the pancreatitis was relieved with conservative treatment.CONCLUSIONS:Endoscopic retrieval of migrated biliary and pancreatic stents appears to be useful because of its safety and low invasiveness.However,various forceps should be prepared for the retrieval of a migrated stent. | Yuji Sakai Toshio Tsuyuguchi Takeshi Ishihara Harutoshi Sugiyama Reiko Eto Tatsuya Fujimoto Shin Yasui Ryo Tamura Seiko Togo Motohisa Tada Osamu Yokosuka | 2009 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2009，8，6： | 8 |
| 8 | Ultrahigh resolution optical coherence tomography with femtosecond Ti:sapphire laser and photonic crystal fiber显示文摘Optical coherence tomography (OCT) with ultrahigh axial resolution was achieved by the super-contin-uum generated by coupling femtosecond pulses from a commercial Ti:sapphire laser into an air-silica microstructure fiber. The visible spectrum of the super-continuum from 450 to 700 nm centered at 540 nm can be generated. A free-space axial OCT resolution of 0.64 μm was achieved. The sensitivity of OCT system was 108 dB with incident light power 3 mW at sample,only 7dB below the theoretical limit. Subcellular OCT imaging was also demonstrated,showing great potential for biomedical application. | XUE Ping James G FUJIMOTO | 2008 | Chinese Science Bulletin2008，53，13： | 8 |

| 10 | Endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation for removal of bile duct stones显示文摘AIM:To investigate the efficacy and outcomes of endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation(EPLBD)for bile duct stones in a multicenter prospective study.METHODS:Lithotomy by EPLBD was conducted in 124patients with bile duct stones≥13 mm in size or with three or more bile duct stones≥10 mm.After endoscopic sphincterotomy,the papilla was dilated using balloons 12-20 mm in diameter fitting the bile duct diameter.RESULTS:The success rate of first-time lithotomy was 86.3%(107/124)and the final lithotomy success rate was 100%(124/124).Lithotripsy was needed in10 of the 124(13.6%)patients.Adverse events due to the treatment procedure occurred in 6(4.8%)patients,all of which were mild.Performing large balloon dilation after endoscopic sphincterotomy in patients with large stones or multiple stones in the bile duct is considered to ensure the safety of treatment and to reduce the need for lithotripsy.CONCLUSION:It is suggested that treatment by EPLBD for large bile duct stones may be safe and useful. | Yuji Sakai Toshio Tsuyuguchi Yoshiaki Kawaguchi Nobuto Hirata So Nakaji Katsuya Kitamura Shigeru Mikami Tatsuya Fujimoto Masashi Ijima Eishin Kurihara Shuhei Oana Takayoshi Nishino Ryo Tamura Dai Sakamoto Masato Nakamura Takao Nishikawa Harutoshi Sugiyama Hitoshi Yoshida Tetsuya Mine Osamu Yokosuka | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，45： | 6 |
| 11 | Body mass index is associated with age-at-onset of HCV-infected hepatocellular carcinoma patients显示文摘AIM: To identify factors associated with the age at onset of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: Five hundred and fifty-six consecutive patients positive for HCV antibody and treatment-nafive HCC diagnosed between 1995 and 2004 were analyzed. Patients were classified into three groups according to age at HCC onset: < 60 years (n = 79), 60-79 years (n = 439), or ≥ 80 years (n = 38). Differences among groups in terms of sex, body mass index (BMI), lifestyle characteristics, and liver function were assessed. Factors associated with HCC onset in patients < 60 or ≥ 80 years were analyzed by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: Significant differences emerged for sex, BMI, degree of smoking and alcohol consumption, mean bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) levels, prothrombin activity, and platelet counts. The mean BMI values of male patients > 60 years old were lower and mean BMI values of female patients < 60 years old were higher than those of the general Japanese population. BMI > 25 kg/m2 [hazard ratio (HR), 1.8, P = 0.045], excessive alcohol consumption (HR, 2.5, P = 0.024), male sex (HR, 3.6, P = 0.002), and GGT levels > 50 IU/L (HR, 2.4, P = 0.014) were independently associated with HCC onset in patients < 60 years. Low ALT level was the only factor associated with HCC onset in patients aged ≥ 80 years. CONCLUSION: Increased BMI is associated with increased risk for early HCC development in HCV-infected patients. Achieving recommended BMI and reducing alcohol intake could help prevent hepatic carcinogenesis. | Takumi Akiyama Toshihiko Mizuta Seiji Kawazoe Yuichiro Eguchi Yasunori Kawaguchi Hirokazu Takahashi Iwata Ozaki Kazuma Fujimoto | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011，17，7： | 6 |

| 13 | Treatment of colorectal carcinoids:A new paradigm显示文摘It is often difficult to evaluate the grade of malignancy and choose an appropriate treatment for colorectal carcinoids in clinical settings. Although tumor size and depth of invasion are evidently not enough to stratify the risk of this rare tumor, the present guidelines or staging systems do not mention other clinicopathological variables. Recent studies, however, have shed light on the impact of lymphovascular invasion on the outcome of colorectal carcinoids. It has been revealed that the presence of lymphovascular invasion was among the strongest risk factors for metastasis along with tumor size and depth of invasion. Furthermore, tumors smaller than 1 cm, within submucosal invasion and without lymphovascular invasion, carry minimal risk for metastasis with 100% 5-year survival in the studies from Japan as well as from the USA. This would suggest that these tumors could be curatively treated by endoscopic resection or transanal local excision. On the other hand, colorectal carcinoids with either lymphovascular invasion or tumor size larger than 1 cm carry the risk for metastasis equivalent to adenocarcinomas. Therefore, it should be emphasized that histological examination of lymphovascular invasion is mandatory in the specimens obtained by endoscopic resection or transanal local excision, as this would provide useful information for determining the need for additional radical surgery with regional lymph node dissection. Although the present guidelines or TNM staging system do not mention the impact of lymphovascular invasion, this would be among the next promising targets in order to establish better guidelines and staging systems, particularly in early-stage colorectal carcinoids. | Tsuyoshi Konishi Toshiaki Watanabe Hirokazu Nagawa Masatoshi Oya Masashi Ueno Hiroya Kuroyanagi Yoshiya Fujimoto Takashi Akiyoshi Toshiharu Yamaguchi Tetsuichiro Muto | 2010 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery2010，2，5： | 5 |

| 15 | Combined treatment of vitamin K_2 and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor ameliorates hepatic dysplastic nodule in a patient with liver cirrhosis显示文摘Although it is well known that the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an ominous complication in patients with liver cirrhosis, there has been no approved drug to prevent the development of HCC to date. We previously reported that the combined treatment of vitamin K2 (VK) and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE-I) significantly suppressed the experimental hepatocarcinogenesis. A 66-year-old Japanese woman with hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related liver cirrhosis developed a dysplastic nodule in the liver detected by enhanced computed tomography along with elevation of the tumor markers, namely, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and lectin-reactive demarcation (AFP-L3), suggesting the presence of latent HCC. After oral administration of VK and ACE-I, the serum levels of both AFP and AFP-L3 gradually decreased without any marked alteration of the serum aminotransferase activity. After one-year treatment, not only the serum levels of AFP and AFP-L3 returned to the normal ranges, but also the dysplastic nodule disappeared. Since both VK and ACE-I are widely used without serious side effects, this combined regimen may become a new strategy for chemoprevention against HCC. | Hitoshi Yoshiji Ryuichi Noguchi Masaharu Yamazaki Yasuhide Ikenaka Masayoshi Sawai Masatoshi Ishikawa Hideto Kawaratani Tsuyoshi Mashitani Mitsuteru Kitade Kosuke Kaji Masahito Uemura Junichi Yamao Masao Fujimoto Akira Mitoro Masahisa Toyohara Motoyuki Yoshida Hiroshi Fukui | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007，13，23： | 5 |

| 18 | Dual therapy with zinc acetate and rifaximin prevents from ethanolinduced liver fibrosis by maintaining intestinal barrier integrity显示文摘BACKGROUND Hepatic overload of gut-derived lipopolysaccharide dictates the progression of alcoholic liver disease(ALD)by inducing oxidative stress and activating Kupffer cells and hepatic stellate cells through toll-like receptor 4 signaling.Therefore,targeting the maintenance of intestinal barrier integrity has attracted attention for the treatment of ALD.Zinc acetate and rifaximin,which is a nonabsorbable antibiotic,had been clinically used for patients with cirrhosis,particularly those with hepatic encephalopathy,and had been known to improve intestinal barrier dysfunction.However,only few studies focused on their efficacies in preventing the ALD-related fibrosis development.AIM To investigate the effects of a combined zinc acetate with rifaximin on liver fibrosis in a mouse ALD model.METHODS To induce ALD-related liver fibrosis,female C57BL/6J mice were fed a 2.5%(v/v)ethanol-containing Lieber-DeCarli liquid diet and received intraperitoneal carbon tetrachloride(CCl4)injection twice weekly(1 mL/kg)for 8 wk.Zinc acetate(100 mg/L)and/or rifaximin(100 mg/L)were orally administered during experimental period.Hepatic steatosis,inflammation and fibrosis as well as intestinal barrier function were evaluated by histological and molecular analyses.Moreover,the direct effects of both agents on Caco-2 barrier function were assessed by in vitro assays.RESULTSIn the ethanol plus CCl4-treated mice,combination of zinc acetate and rifaximin attenuated oxidative lipid peroxidation with downregulation of Nox2 and Nox4.This combination significantly inhibited the Kupffer cells expansion and the proinflammatory response with blunted hepatic exposure of lipopolysaccharide and the toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor kB pathway.Consequently,liver fibrosis and hepatic stellate cells activation were efficiently suppressed with downregulation of Mmp-2,-9,-13,and Timp1.Both agents improved the atrophic changes and permeability in the ileum,with restoration of tight junction proteins(TJPs)by decreasing the expressions of tumor necrosis factorαand myosin light chain kinase.In the in vitro assay,both agents directly reinforced ethanol or lipopolysaccharide-stimulated paracellular permeability and upregulated TJPs in Caco-2 cells.CONCLUSION Dual therapy with zinc acetate and rifaximin may serve as a strategy to prevent ALD-related fibrosis by maintaining intestinal barrier integrity. | Yuki Fujimoto Kosuke Kaji Norihisa Nishimura Masahide Enomoto Koji Murata Soichi Takeda Hiroaki Takaya Hideto Kawaratani Kei Moriya Tadashi Namisaki Takemi Akahane Hitoshi Yoshiji | 2021 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2021，27，48： | 4 |
| 19 | Immunotherapy for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis using the multiple cytokine production modulator Y-40138显示文摘AIM:To investigate the possible use of the multiple cytokine production modulator,Y-40138,as a novel immunotherapy in the rat nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) model. METHODS:We allocated 6-wk-old male F344 rats to choline-supplemented,L-amino acid-defined (CSAA) diet (control group),CSAA diet + Y-40138 (control + Y-40138 group),choline-def icient,L-amino acid-def ined (CDAA) diet (NASH group),or CDAA diet + Y-40138 (NASH + Y-40138 group). In each group,we measured the plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels,and the plasma and liver levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),interferon-γ (IFN-γ),and interleukin-10 (IL-10). Tissue specimens of phosphate buffered saline-perfused liver were subjected to hematoxylin and eosin staining,Azan staining,Sirius red staining,and immunohistochemical staining (for Kupffer cells and TNF-α). We then extracted Kupffer cells from the collagenase-perfused livers using the Percoll gradient centrifugation method,and measured the TNF-α levels in the supernatant (in vitro TNF-α production by Kupffer cells) using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit.RESULTS:In comparison to the NASH group,serumALT elevation was mild,production of serum and liver TNF-α and IFN-γ was inhibited,and IL-10 production was increased in the NASH + Y-40138 group. Amelioration of liver histology was also noted in the NASH + Y-40138 group. Kupffer cell immunohistochemical staining revealed no differences between groups,whereas TNF-α immunohistochemical staining showed fewer stained cells in the NASH + Y-40138 group than in the NASH group. The TNF-α levels in the in-vitro Kupffer cell culture supernatant were lower in the NASH + Y-40138 group than in the NASH group.CONCLUSION:Administration of Y-40138 to NASH model rats reduced hepatic inflammation and suppressed fibrosis. These results indicate that the multiple cytokine production modulator,Y-40138,is promising as a novel treatment for NASH. | Tatsuhiro Tsujimoto Hideto Kawaratani Toshiyuki Kitazawa Hitoshi Yoshiji Masao Fujimoto Masahito Uemura Hiroshi Fukui | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009，15，44： | 4 |
