| 2 | Pancreatic metastases from renal cell carcinoma:The state of the art显示文摘Pancreatic metastases are rare,with a reported incidence varying from 1.6%to 11%in autopsy studies of patients with advanced malignancy.In clinical series,the frequency of pancreatic metastases ranges from 2%to 5%of all pancreatic malignant tumors.However,the pancreas is an elective site for metastases from carcinoma of the kidney and this peculiarity has been reported by several studies.The epidemiology,clinical presentation,and treatment of pancreatic metastases from renal cell carcinoma are known from singleinstitution case reports and literature reviews.Thereis currently very limited experience with the surgical resection of isolated pancreatic metastasis,and the role of surgery in the management of these patients has not been clearly defined.In fact,for many years pancreatic resections were associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality,and metastatic disease to the pancreas was considered to be a terminal-stage condition.More recently,a significant reduction in the operative risk following major pancreatic surgery has been demonstrated,thus extending the indication for these operations to patients with metastatic disease. | Roberto Ballarin Mario Spaggiari Nicola Cautero Nicola De Ruvo Roberto Montalti Cristina Longo Anna Pecchi Patrizia Giacobazzi Giuseppina De Marco Giuseppe D’Amico Giorgio Enrico Gerunda Fabrizio Di Benedetto | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011，17，43： | 21 |

| 4 | Computed tomography-guided percutaneous core needle biopsy in pancreatic tumor diagnosis显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the techniques, results, and complications related to computed tomography(CT)-guided percutaneous core needle biopsies of solid pancreatic lesions.METHODS: CT-guided percutaneous biopsies of solid pancreatic lesions performed at a cancer reference center between January 2012 and September 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Biopsy material was collected with a 16-20 G Tru-Core needle(10-15 cm; Angiotech, Vancouver, CA) using a coaxial system and automatic biopsy gun. When direct access to the lesion was not possible, indirect(transgastric or transhepatic) access or hydrodissection and/or pneumodissection maneuvers were used. Characteristics of the patients, lesions, procedures, and histologic results were recorded using a standardized form. RESULTS: A total of 103 procedures included in the study were performed on patients with a mean age of 64.8 year(range: 39-94 year). The mean size of the pancreatic lesions was 45.5 mm(range: 15-195 mm). Most(75/103, 72.8%) procedures were performed via direct access, though hydrodissection and/or pneumodissection were used in 22.2%(23/103) of cases and indirect transhepatic or transgastric access was used in 4.8%(5/103) of cases. Histologic analysis was performed on all biopsies, and diagnoses were conclusive in 98.1%(101/103) of cases, confirming3.9%(4/103) of tumors were benign and 94.2%(97/103) were malignant; results were atypical in 1.9%(2/103) of cases, requiring a repeat biopsy to diagnose a neuroendocrine tumor, and surgical resection to confirm a primary adenocarcinoma. Only mild/moderate complications were observed in 9/103 patients(8.7%),and they were more commonly associated with biopsies of lesions located in the head/uncinate process(n =8), than of those located in the body/tail(n = 1) of the pancreas, but this difference was not significant.CONCLUSION: CT-guided biopsy of a pancreatic lesion is a safe procedure with a high success rate, and is an excellent option for minimally invasive diagnosis. | Chiang J Tyng Maria Fernanda A Almeida Paula NV Barbosa Almir GV Bitencourt José Augusto AG Berg Macello S Maciel Felipe JF Coimbra Luiz Henrique O Schiavon Maria Dirlei Begnami Marcos D Guimares Charles E Zurstrassen Rubens Chojniak | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015，21，12： | 14 |

| 6 | Cytoreduction and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in the treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis from pseudomixoma peritonei显示文摘AIM:To investigate the most important aspects of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) that has been accepted as the standard treatment for pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP),with special regard to morbidity,overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS) over 10 years. METHODS:Fifty-three patients affected by PMP underwent cytoreduction (CCR) and HIPEC with a 'semi-closed' abdomen technique in our institution. The peritonectomy procedure and completeness of CCR were classifi ed according to Sugarbaker criteria. Preoperative evaluation always included thoracic and abdominal CT scan to stage peritoneal disease and exclude distant metastases. Fifty-one patients in our series were treated with a protocol based on administration of cisplatinum 100 mg/m2 plus mitomycin C 16 mg/m2,at a temperature of 41.5℃ for 60 min. Anastomoses were always performed at the end of HIPEC. The mean duration of surgery was 12 h including HIPEC. Continuous monitoring of hepatic and renal functions and hydroelectrolytic balance was performed in the postoperative period. RESULTS:Twenty-four patients presented with postoperative complications:surgical morbidity was observed in 16 patients and 6 patients were re-operated. All complications were successfully treated and no postoperative deaths were observed. Risk factors for postoperative morbidity were considered to be gender,age,body surface,duration of surgery,Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) and tumor residual value (CC score). No statistically signifi cant correlation was found during the multivariate analysis:only the CC score was statistically significant. The OS in our experience was 81.8%,with a DFS of 80% at 5 years and of 70% at 10 years. CONCLUSION:In our experience,even if HIPEC combined with cytoreductive surgery involves a high risk of morbidity,postoperative complications can be resolved favorably in most cases with correct patient selection and adequate postoperative care,thus minimizing mortality. The association of CCR and HIPEC can be considered as the standard treatment for PMP. The OS and DFS results confi rm the validity of this combined approach for the treatment of this rare neoplasm. The impact of preoperative chemotherapy on OS,in our opinion,is due to a major aggressiveness of tumors in treated patients. | Tommaso Cioppa Marco Vaira Camilla Bing Silvia D'Amico Alessandro Bruscino Michele De Simone | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008，14，44： | 13 |
| 7 | Role of blood AFP mRNA and tumor grade in the preoperative prognostic evaluation of patients with hepatoceiluiar carcinoma显示文摘AIM: To explore the potential prognostic role of preoperative tumor grade and blood AFP mRNA in a cohort of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)eligible for radical therapies according to a well-defined treatment algorithm not including nodule size and number as absolute selection criteria.METHODS: Fifty patients with a diagnosis of HCC were prospectively enrolled in the study. Inclusion criteria were: (1) histological assessment of tumor grade by means of percutaneous biopsies; (2) determination of AFP mRNA status in the blood; (3) patient's eligibility for radical therapies.RESULTS: At preoperative evaluation, 54% of the study group had a well-differentiated HCC, 42% had AFP mRNA in the blood, 40% had a tumor larger than 5 cm and 56% had more than one nodule. Surgery (resection or liver transplantation) was performed in 29 patients,while 21 had percutaneous ablation procedures. After a median follow-up of 28 mo, 12-, 24-, and 36-mo survival rates were 78%, 58%, and 51%, respectively. Surgical therapy, performance status and three tumor-related variables (AFP mRNA, HCC grade and gross vascular invasion) resulted as significant survival predictors at univariate analysis. Nodule size and number did not perform as significant prognosticators. Multivariate study selected only surgical therapy and a biologically early HCC profile (AFP mRNA negative and well-differentiated tumor without gross vascular invasion) as independent survival variables.CONCLUSION: The preoperative determination of tumor grade and blood AFP mRNA status may potentially refine the prognostic evaluation of HCC patients and improve the selection process for radical therapies. | Umberto Cillo Alessandro Vitale Filippo Navaglia Daniela Basso Umberto Montin Marco Bassanello Francesco D'Amico Francesco Antonio Ciarleglio Alberto Brolese Giacomo Zanus Vito De Pascale Mario Plebani Davide Francesco D'Amico | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005，11，44： | 12 |
| 8 | Fat:A matter of disturbance for the immune system显示文摘Obesity is increasingly being recognized as a risk factor for a number of benign and malignant gastrointestinal conditions. However, literature on the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms is sparse and ambiguous. There is compelling evidence that both overnutrition and undernutrition negatively interfere with the immune system. Overnutrition has been found to increase susceptibility to the development of inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases and cancer. In the regulation of immune and in? ammatory processes, white adipose tissue plays a critical role, not only as an energy store but also as an important endocrine organ. The obese state is characterised by a low-grade systemic in? ammation, mainly as a result of increased adipocytes as well as fat resident-and recruited-macrophage activity. In the past few years, various products of adipose tissue including adipokines and cytokines have been characterised and a number of pathways linking adipose tissue metabolism with the immune system have been identified. Activation of the innate immune system plays a major role in hepatic steatosis. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease includes a wide spectrum of diseases, from pure steatosis to non-alcoholic steato-hepatitis in the absence of signif icant alcohol consumption. Although steatosis is considered a non-progressive disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis may deteriorate in advanced chronic liver diseases, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. An important parallel between obesityrelated pathology of adipose tissue and liver pertains to the emerging role of macrophages, and growing evidence suggests that Kupffer cells critically contribute to progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Moreover, a close link between specif ic immune activation and atherosclerosis has been well established, suggesting that fat can directly trigger immune responses. This review discusses the role of fat as 'a matter of disturbance for the immune system' with a focus on hepatic steatosis. | Alessandro Federico Elena D’Aiuto Francesco Borriello Giusi Barra Antonietta Gerarda Gravina Marco Romano Raffaele De Palma | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010，16，38： | 12 |
| 9 | Role of osteoprotegerin/receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B/receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand axis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease显示文摘Concomitantly with the increase in the prevalences of overweight/obesity, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) has worldwide become the main cause of chronic liver disease in both adults and children. Patients with fatty liver display features of metabolic syndrome(Met S), like insulin resistance(IR), glucose intolerance, hypertension and dyslipidemia. Recently, epidemiological studies have linked obesity, Met S, and NAFLD to decreased bone mineral density and osteoporosis, highlighting an intricate interplay among bone, adipose tissue, and liver. Osteoprotegerin(OPG), an important symbol of the receptor activator of nuclear factor-B ligand/receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B/OPG system activation, typically considered for its role in bone metabolism, may also play critical roles in the initiation and perpetuation of obesityrelated comorbidities. Clinical data have indicated that OPG concentrations are associated with hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy, vascular calcification, endothelial dysfunction, and severity of liver damage in chronic hepatitis C. Nonetheless, the relationship between circulating OPG and IR as a key feature of Met S as well as between OPG and NAFLD remains uncertain. Thus, the aims of the present review are to provide the existent knowledge on these associations and to discuss briefly the underlying mechanisms linking OPG and NAFLD. | Lucia Pacifico Gian Marco Andreoli Miriam D'Avanzo Delia De Mitri Pasquale Pierimarchi | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018，24，19： | 11 |
| 10 | Research advances on the multiple uses of Moringa oleifera: a sustainable alternative for socially neglected population显示文摘Moringa oleifera Lam(Moringaceae) is a plant with high nutritional and medicinal value. Native to India, it is now widely distributed throughout tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Its different parts are sources of proteins, vitamins and minerals and present different pharmacological and biotechnological potential. Moreover, M. oleifera seeds are widely used in water and effluent treatment, for their coagulation, flocculation and sedimentation properties, their ability of improving water quality, by reducing organic matter and microbial load, with special applicability in intensive animal production systems, such as aquaculture. In addition, due to its high nutritional value and several medicinal properties, this tree may act as a nutritional and medical alternative for socially neglected populations. In this context, this review gathers information on M. oleifera, emphasizing its chemical constituents, nutritional, pharmacological and antimicrobial properties, applications in the treatment of water effluents, and ecological and social aspects. | Raimunda Samia Nogueira Brilhante Jamille Alencar Sales Vandbergue Santos Pereira Débora de Souza Collares Maia Castelo-Branco Rossana de Aguiar Cordeiro Célia Maria de Souza Sampaio Manoel de Araújo Neto Paiva Joao Bosco Feitosa dos Santos JoséJúlio CostaSidrim Marcos Fábio Gadelha Rocha | 2017 | Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Medicine2017，10，7： | 10 |
| 11 | 英国胃肠病学会关于胃癌风险患者的诊断和管理指南显示文摘胃癌预后较差,部分原因在于诊断较晚。胃癌的危险因素包括幽门螺杆菌(H.pylori,HP)感染和胃癌家族史,尤其是遗传性弥漫性胃癌和恶性贫血。胃癌发展的阶段包括慢性胃炎、胃黏膜萎缩(GA)、胃黏膜肠化生(GIM)和异型增生。胃癌早期发现和提高生存率的关键是在内镜检查前以非侵入性方式识别高危人群。然而,尽管生物标志物可能有助于检测慢性萎缩性胃炎,但尚无足够的证据支持其用于人群筛查。高质量内镜检查是胃癌早期发现的重要组成部分,图像增强内镜结合组织病理学活检是GA和GIM最佳的诊断方法,并能准确进行风险分层。按照悉尼标准从胃窦、角切迹、小弯和大弯进行活检,既能明确诊断,也能对胃癌进行风险分层。理想状态应当是在高质量内镜检查中对GA或GIM区域活检。英国属于低危地区,可根据需要接受常规诊断性胃镜检查,但没有足够证据支持筛查,对于广泛GA或GIM的患者,每3年检查内镜。对于胃异型增生和早期癌,只要满足标准,内镜下黏膜切除术或内镜黏膜下剥离术的治疗有效,成功率高,复发率低。 | Matthew Banks David Graham Marnix Jansen TakujiGotoda Sergio Coda Massimiliano di Pietro NoriyaUedo Pradeep Bhandari D Mark Pritchard Ernst J Kuipers Manuel Rodriguez-Justo Marco R Novelli KrishRagunath Neil Shepherd Mario Dinis-Ribeiro 乌雅罕(译) 张冬雪(译) 牛占岳(校) 刘鑫(校) 丁士刚(译/校) | 2020 | 中华胃肠内镜电子杂志2020，7，2： | 10 |
| 12 | Assessment of the SARS-CoV-2 basic reproduction number,R0,based on the early phase of COVID-19 outbreak in Italy显示文摘As of March 12th Italy has the largest number of SARS-CoV-2 cases in Europe as well as outside China.The infections,first limited in Northern Italy,have eventually spread to all other regions.When controlling an emerging outbreak of an infectious disease it is essential to know the key epidemiological parameters,such as the basic reproduction number R0,i.e.the average number of secondary infections caused by one infected individual during his/her entire infectious period at the start of an outbreak.Previous work has been limited to the assessment of R0 analyzing data from the Wuhan region or China's Mainland.In the present study the R0 value for SARS-CoV-2 was assessed analyzing data derived from the early phase of the outbreak in Italy.In particular,the spread of SARS-CoV-2 was analyzed in 9 cities(those with the largest number of infections)fitting the well-established SIR-model to available data in the interval between February 25–March 12,2020.The findings of this study suggest that R0 values associated with the Italian outbreak may range from 2.43 to 3.10,confirming previous evidence in the literature reporting similar R0 values for SARS-CoV-2. | Marco D'Arienzo Angela Coniglio | 2020 | Biosafety and Health2020，2，2： | 6 |
| 13 | Sonographic assessment of a suspected biloma:A case report and review of the literature显示文摘A biloma is a rare disease characterized by an abnormal intra-or extrahepatic bile collection due to a traumatic or spontaneous rupture of the biliary system.Laboratory findings are nonspecific.The diagnosis is usually suspected on the basis of a typical history(right upper quadrant abdominal pain,chills,fever and recent abdominal trauma or surgery) and is confirmed by detection of typical radiologic features.We report the case of a patient with a history of previous cholecystectomy for lithiasis who presented with clinical symptoms and laboratory data suggestive of acute pancreatitis.Imaging studies also revealed the presence of a chronic and asymptomatic biloma,which could be mistaken for a pseudocyst.The atypical location and ultrasound findings suggested an alternative diagnosis.We therefore reviewed the known literature for bilomas,focusing on the role of ultrasonography,which can reveal some typical aspects,such as location and imaging features.Weconclude that ultrasound plays a key role in the assessment of a suspected biloma in patients with appropriate history and clinical features and provides valuable diagnostic clues even in the absence of these. | Claudio Tana Patrizio D'Alessandro Armando Tartaro Marco Tana Andrea Mezzetti Cosima Schiavone | 2013 | World Journal of Radiology2013，5，5： | 6 |
| 14 | Impaired coagulation,liver dysfunction and COVID-19:Discovering an intriguing relationship显示文摘Coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)is,at present,one of the most relevant global health problems.In the literature hepatic alterations have been described in COVID-19 patients,and they are mainly represented by worsening of underlying chronic liver disease leading to hepatic decompensation and liver failure with higher mortality.Several potential mechanisms used by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-Co V-2)to cause liver damage have been hypothesized.COVID-19 primary liver injury is less common than secondary liver injury.Most of the available data demonstrate how liver damage in SARSCo V-2 infection is likely due to systemic inflammation,and it is less likely mediated by a cytopathic effect directed on liver cells.Moreover,liver alterations could be caused by hypoxic injury and drugs(antibiotics and non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs,remdesivir,tocilizumab,tofacitinib and dexamethasone).SARS-Co V-2 infection can induce multiple vascular district atherothrombosis by affecting simultaneously cerebral,coronary and peripheral vascular beds.Data in the literature highlight how the virus triggers an exaggerated immune response,which added to the cytopathic effect of the virus can induce endothelial damage and a prothrombotic dysregulation of hemostasis.This leads to a higher incidence of symptomatic and confirmed venous thrombosis and of pulmonary embolisms,especially in central,lobar or segmental pulmonary arteries,in COVID-19.There are currently fewer data for arterial thrombosis,while myocardial injury was identified in 7%-17%of patients hospitalized with SARS-Co V-2 infection and 22%-31%in the intensive care unit setting.Available data also revealed a higher occurrence of stroke and more serious forms of peripheral arterial disease in COVID-19 patients.Hemostasis dysregulation is observed during the COVID-19 course.Lower platelet count,mildly increased prothrombin time and increased Ddimer are typical laboratory features of patients with severe SARS-Co V-2 infection,described as“COVID-19 associated coagulopathy.”These alterations are correlated to poor outcomes.Moreover,patients with severe SARS-Co V-2 infection are characterized by high levels of von Willebrand factor with subsequent ADAMTS13 deficiency and impaired fibrinolysis.Platelet hyperreactivity,hypercoagulability and hypofibrinolysis during SARS-Co V-2 infection induce a pathological state named as“immuno-thromboinflammation.”Finally,liver dysfunction and coagulopathy are often observed at the same time in patients with COVID-19.The hypothesis that liver dysfunction could be mediated by microvascular thrombosis has been supported by postmortem findings and extensive vascular portal and sinusoidal thrombosis observation.Other evidence has shown a correlation between coagulation and liver damage in COVID-19,underlined by the transaminase association with coagulopathy,identified through laboratory markers such as prothrombin time,international normalized ratio,fibrinogen,D-dimer,fibrin/fibrinogen degradation products and platelet count.Other possible mechanisms like immunogenesis of COVID-19 damage or massive pericyte activation with consequent vessel wall fibrosis have been suggested. | Damiano D'Ardes Andrea Boccatonda Giulio Cocco Stefano Fabiani Ilaria Rossi Marco Bucci Maria Teresa Guagnano Cosima Schiavone Francesco Cipollone | 2022 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2022，28，11： | 5 |
| 15 | Management of oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients:Current controversies and future directions显示文摘Oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)describes an intermediate stage of NSCLC between localized and widely-disseminated disease.This stage of NSCLC is characterized by a limited number of metastases and a more indolent tumor biology.Currently,the management of oligometastatic NSCLC involves radical treatment(radiotherapy or surgery)that targets the metastatic lesions and the primary tumor to achieve disease control.This approach offers the potential to achieve prolonged survival in patients who,in the past,would have only received palliative measures.The optimal therapeutic strategies for the different scenarios of oligometastatic disease(intracranial vs extracranial disease,synchronous vs metachronous)remain undefined.Given the lack of head-to-head studies comparing radiotherapy to surgery in these patients,the decision to apply surgery or radiotherapy(with or without systemic treatment)must be based on prognostic factors that allow us to classify patients.This classification will allow us to select the most appropriate therapeutic strategy on an individualized basis.In the future,the molecular or microRNA profiles will likely improve the treatment selection process.The objective of the present article is to review the most relevant scientific evidence on the management of patients with oligometastatic NSCLC,focusing on the role of radiotherapy and surgery.We also discuss areas of controversy and future directions. | Felipe Counago Javier Luna Luis Leonardo Guerrero Blanca Vaquero María Cecilia Guillén-Sacoto Teresa González-Merino Begona Taboada Verónica Díaz Belén Rubio-Viqueira Ana Aurora Díaz-Gavela Francisco JoséMarcos Elia del Cerro | 2019 | World Journal of Clinical Oncology2019，10，10： | 5 |
| 16 | Percutaneous radiofrequency ablation for early hepatocellular carcinoma: Risk factors for survival显示文摘AIM: To evaluate outcomes of radiofrequency ablation(RFA) therapy for early hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) and identify survival- and recurrence-related factors. METHODS: Consecutive patients diagnosed with early HCC by computed tomography(CT) or magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)(single nodule of ≤ 5 cm, or multi-(up to 3) nodules of ≤ 3 cm each) and who underwent RFA treatment with curative intent between January 2010 and August 2011 at the Instituto do Cancer do Estado de S o Paulo, Brazil were enrolled in the study. RFA of the liver tumors(with 1.0 cm ablative margin) was carried out under CT-fluoro scan and ultrasonic image guidance of the percutaneous ablation probes. Procedure-related complications were recorded. At 1-mo post-RFA and 3-mo intervals thereafter, CT and MRI were performed to assess outcomes of complete response(absence of enhancing tissue at the tumor site) or incomplete response(enhancing tissue remaining at the tumor site). Overall survival and diseasefree survival rates were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by the log rank test or simple Cox regression. The effect of risk factors on survival was assessed by the Cox proportional hazard model. RESULTS: A total of 38 RFA sessions were performed during the study period on 34 patients(age in years: mean, 63 and range, 49-84). The mean follow-up time was 22 mo(range, 1-33). The study population showed predominance of male sex(76%), less severe liver disease(Child-Pugh A, n = 26; Child-Pugh B, n = 8), and single tumor(65%). The maximum tumor diameters ranged from 10 to 50 mm(median, 26 mm). The initial(immediately post-procedure) rate of RFAinduced complete tumor necrosis was 90%. The probability of achieving complete response was significantly greater in patients with a single nodule(vs patients with multi-nodules, P = 0.04). Two patients experienced major complications, including acute pulmonary edema(resolved with intervention) and intestinal perforation(led to death). The 1- and 2-year overall survival rates were 82% and 71%, respectively. Sex, tumor size, initial response, and recurrence status influenced survival, but did not reach the threshold of statistical significance. Child-Pugh class and the model for end-stage liver disease score were identified as predictors of survival by simple Cox regression, but only Child-Pugh class showed a statistically significant association to survival in multiple Cox regression analysis(HR = 15; 95%CI: 3-76 mo; P = 0.001). The 1-and 2-year cumulative disease-free survival rates were 65% and 36%, respectively. CONCLUSION: RFA is an effective therapy for local tumor control of early HCC, and patients with preserved liver function are the best candidates. | Luciana Kikuchi Marcos Menezes Aline L Chagas Claudia M Tani Regiane SSM Alencar Marcio A Diniz Venncio AF Alves Luiz Augusto Carneiro D’Albuquerque Flair José Carrilho | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，6： | 5 |
| 17 | R0 resection in the treatment of gastric cancer:Room for improvement显示文摘Gastric carcinoma is one of the most frequent malignancies in the world and its clinical behavior especially depends on the metastatic potential of the tumor.In particular,lymphatic metastasis is one of the main predictors of tumor recurrence and survival,and current pathological staging systems reflect the concept that lymphatic spread is the most relevant prognostic factor in patients undergoing curative resection.This is compounded by the observation that two-thirds of gastric cancer in the Western world presents at an advanced stage,with lymph node metastasis at diagnosis.All current therapeutic efforts in gastric cancer are directed toward individualization of therapeutic protocols,tailoring the extent of resection and the administration of preoperative and postoperative treatment.The goals of all these strategies are to improve prognosis towards the achievement of a curative resection(R0 resection) with minimal morbidity and mortality,and better postoperative quality of life. | Alberto Biondi Roberto Persiani Ferdinando Cananzi Marco Zoccali Vincenzo Vigorita Andrea Tufo Domenico D'Ugo | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010，16，27： | 4 |
| 18 | Comparison of imaging-based and pathological dimensions in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors显示文摘AIM To establish the ability of magnetic resonance(MR) and computer tomography(CT) to predict pathologic dimensions of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors(Pan NET) in a caseload of a tertiary referral center.METHODS Patients submitted to surgery for Pan NET at the Surgical Unit of the Pancreas Institute with at least 1 preoperative imaging examination(MR or CT scan) from January 2005 to December 2015 were included and data retrospectively collected. Exclusion criteria were: multifocal lesions, genetic syndromes, microadenomas or mixed tumors, metastatic disease and neoadjuvant therapy. Bland-Altman(BA) and Mountain-Plot(MP) statistics were used to compare size measured by each modality with the pathology size. Passing-Bablok(PB) regression analysis was used to check the agreement between MR and CT.RESULTS Our study population consisted of 292 patients. Seventy-nine(27.1%) were functioning Pan NET. The mean biases were 0.17 ± 7.99 mm, 1 ± 8.51 mm and 0.23 ± 9 mm, 1.2 ± 9.8 mm for MR and CT, considering the overall population and the subgroup of non-functioning-Pan NET, respectively. Limits of agreement(LOA) included the vast majority of observations, indicating a good agreement between imaging and pathology. The MP further confirmed this finding and showed that the two methods are unbiased with respect to each other. Considering ≤ 2 cm non-functioning-Pan NET, no statistical significance was found in the size estimation rate of MR and CT(P = 0.433). PBR analysis did not reveal significant differences between MR, CT and pathology.CONCLUSION MR and CT scan are accurate and interchangeable imaging techniques in predicting pathologic dimensions of Pan NET. | Salvatore Paiella Harmony Impellizzeri Elisabetta Zanolin Giovanni Marchegiani Marco Miotto Anna Malpaga Riccardo De Robertis Mirko D'Onofrio Borislav Rusev Paola Capelli Sara Cingarlini Giovanni Butturini Maria Vittoria Davì Antonio Amodio Claudio BassiAldo Scarpa Roberto Salvia Luca Landoni | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017，23，17： | 4 |
| 19 | Possible contribution of artificial neural networks and linear discriminant analysis in recognition of patients with suspected atrophic body gastritis显示文摘AIM: To investigate whether ANNs and LDA could recognize patients with ABG in a database, containing only clinical and biochemical variables, of a pool of patients with and without ABG, by selecting the most predictive variables and by reducing input data to the minimum.METHODS: Data was collected from 350 consecutive outpatients (263 with ABG, 87 with non-atrophic gastritis and/or celiac disease [controls]). Structured questionnaires with 22 items (anagraphic, anamnestic, clinical, and biochemical data) were filled out for each patient. All patients underwent gastroscopy with biopsies. ANNs and LDA were applied to recognize patients with ABG.Experiment 1: random selection on 37 variables, experiment 2: optimization process on 30 variables, experiment 3:input data reduction on 8 variables, experiment 4: use of only clinical input data on 5 variables, and experiment 5:use of only serological variables.RESULTS: In experiment 1, overall accuracies of ANNs and LDA were 96.6% and 94.6%, respectively, for predicting patients with ABG. In experiment 2, ANNs and LDA reached an overall accuracy of 98.8% and 96.8%,respectively. In experiment 3, overall accuracy of ANNs was 98.4%. In experiment 4, overall accuracies of ANNs and LDA were, respectively, 91.3% and 88.6%. In experiment 5, overall accuracies of ANNs and LDA were,respectively, 97.7% and 94.5%.CONCLUSION: This preliminary study suggests that advanced statistical methods, not only ANNs, but also LDA,may contribute to better address bioptic sampling during gastroscopy in a subset of patients in whom ABG may be suspected on the basis of aspecific gastrointestinal symptoms or non-digestive disorders. | Edith Lahner Enzo Grossi Marco Intraligi Massimo Buscema Vito D Corleto Gianfranco Delle Fave Bruno Annibale | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005，11，37： | 4 |
| 20 | Vascular calcification,bone and mineral metabolism after kidney transplantation显示文摘The development of end stage renal failure can be seen as a catastrophic health event and patients with this condition are considered at the highest risk of cardiovascular disease among any other patient groups and risk categories. Although kidney transplantation was hailed as an optimal solution to such devastating disease, many issues related to immune-suppressive drugs soon emerged and it became evident that cardiovascular disease would remain a vexing problem. Progression of chronic kidney disease is accompanied by profound alterations of mineral and bone metabolism that are believed to have an impact on the cardiovascular health of patients with advanced degrees of renal failure. Cardiovascular risk factors remain highly prevalent after kidney transplantation, some immune-suppression drugs worsen the risk profile of graft recipients and the alterations of mineral and bone metabolism seen in end stage renal failure are not completely resolved. Whether this complex situation promotes progression of vascular calcification, a hall-mark of advanced chronic kidney disease, and whether vascular calcifications contribute to the poor cardiovascular outcome of post-transplant patients is reviewed in this article. | Luis D’Marco Antonio Bellasi Sandro Mazzaferro Paolo Raggi | 2015 | World Journal of Transplantation2015，5，4： | 4 |
