| 1 | Relationship between angiotensin-(1-7) and angiotensin Ⅱ correlates with hemodynamic changes in human liver cirrhosis显示文摘AIM:To measure circulating angiotensins at different stages ofhuman cirrhosis and to further evaluate a possible relationship between renin angiotensin system (RAS) components and hemodynamic changes.METHODS: Patients were allocated into 4 groups: mild-to-moderate liver disease (MLD), advanced liver disease (ALD), patients undergoing liver transplantation, and healthy controls. Blood was collected to determine plasma renin activity (PRA), angiotensin (Ang) , Ang Ⅱ, and Ang-(1-7) levels using radioimmunoassays. During liver transplantation, hemodynamic parameters were determined and blood was simultaneously obtained from the portal vein and radial artery in order to measure RAS components.RESULTS: PRA and angiotensins were elevated in ALD when compared to MLD and controls (P < 0.05). In contrast, Ang was signicantly reduced in MLD. Ang-(1-7)/Ang Ⅱ ratios were increased in MLD when compared to controls and ALD. During transplantation, Ang Ⅱ levels were lower and Ang-(1-7)/Ang Ⅱ ratios were higher in the splanchnic circulation than in the peripheral circulation (0.52 ± 0.08 vs 0.38 ± 0.04, P < 0.02), whereas the peripheral circulating Ang /Ang ratio was elevated in comparison to splanchnic lev-els (0.18 ± 0.02 vs 0.13 ± 0.02, P < 0.04). Ang-(1-7)/Ang Ⅱ ratios positively correlated with cardiac output (r= 0.66) and negatively correlated with systemic vascular resistance (r =-0.70).CONCLUSION: Our ndings suggest that the relation-ship between Ang-(1-7) and Ang Ⅱmay play a role in the hemodynamic changes ofhuman cirrhosis. | Walkíria Wingester Vilas-Boas Antnio Ribeiro-Oliveira Jr Regina Maria Pereira Renata da Cunha Ribeiro Jerusa Almeida Ana Paula Nadu Ana Cristina Simoes e Silva Robson Augusto Souza dos Santos | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,20: | 11 |
| 2 | Five Colletotrichum species are responsible for mango anthracnose in northeastern Brazil显示文摘Colletotrichum species are the most important and widespread form of decay affecting mango fruit worldwide.In this study,Colletotrichum species associated with fruit anthracnose isolated from mango in northeastern Brazil were subject to molecular and morphological analyses.The partial sequences of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene of 143 Colletotrichum isolates was amplified,as an initial measure of genetic diversity.A subset of 47 isolates,selected to represent the range of genetic diversity and geographic origin,were further sequenced using the partial actin,β-tubulin,calmodulin,glutamine synthetase genes and rDNA-ITS region.The multilocus sequence analysis,together with a critical examination of the phenotypic characters,revealed four previously described species(Colletotrichum asianum,Colletotrichum fructicola,Colletotrichum tropicale and Colletotrichum karstii)and one new species.The new species is introduced as Colletotrichum dianesei and formally described,illustrated and compared with similar taxa.Only C.asianum and C.karstii have previously been reported from mango,while the other species represent the first report associated with the mango fruits worldwide.All species are reported for the first time associated with the mango fruits in Brazil. | Nelson B.Lima Marcus Vinicius de A.Batista Marcos A.De Morais Jr Maria A.G.Barbosa Sami J.Michereff Kevin D.Hyde Marcos P.S.Câmara | 2013 | Fungal Diversity2013,,4: | 7 |
| 3 | Perioperative blood transfusion decreases long-term survival in pediatric living donor liver transplantation显示文摘BACKGROUND The impact of perioperative blood transfusion on short-and long-term outcomes in pediatric living donor liver transplantation(PLDLT)must still be ascertained,mainly among young children.Clinical and surgical postoperative complications related to perioperative blood transfusion are well described up to three months after adult liver transplantation.AIM To determine whether transfusion is associated with early and late postoperative complications and mortality in small patients undergoing PLDLT.METHODS We evaluated the effects of perioperative transfusion on postoperative complications in recipients up to 20 kg of body weight,submitted to PLDLT.A total of 240 patients were retrospectively allocated into two groups according to postoperative complications:Minor complications(n=109)and major complications(n=131).Multiple logistic regression analysis identified the volume of perioperative packed red blood cells(RBC)transfusion as the only independent risk factor for major postoperative complications.The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn to identify the optimal volume of the perioperative RBC transfusion related to the presence of major postoperative complications,defining a cutoff point of 27.5 mL/kg.Subsequently,patients were reallocated to a low-volume transfusion group(LTr;n=103,RBC≤27.5 mL/kg)and a high-volume transfusion group(HTr;n=137,RBC>27.5 mL/kg)so that the outcome could be analyzed.RESULTS High-volume transfusion was associated with an increased number of major complications and mortality during hospitalization up to a 10-year follow-up period.During a short-term period,the HTr showed an increase in major infectious,cardiovascular,respiratory,and bleeding complications,with a decrease in rejection complications compared to the LTr.Over a long-term period,the HTr showed an increase in major infectious,cardiovascular,respiratory,and minor neoplastic complications,with a decrease in rejection complications.Additionally,Cox hazard regression found that high-volume RBC transfusion increased the mortality risk by 3.031-fold compared to low-volume transfusion.The Kaplan-Meier survival curves of the studied groups were compared using log-rank tests and the analysis showed significantly decreased graft survival,but with no impact in patient survival related to major complications.On the other hand,there was a significant decrease in both graft and patient survival,with high-volume RBC transfusion.CONCLUSION Transfusion of RBC volume higher than 27.5 mL/kg during the perioperative period is associated with a significant increase in short-and long-term postoperative morbidity and mortality after PLDLT. | Karina Gordon Estela Regina Ramos Figueira Joel Avancini Rocha-Filho Luiz Antonio Mondadori Eduardo Henrique Giroud Joaquim Joao Seda-Neto Eduardo Antunes da Fonseca Renata Pereira Sustovitch Pugliese Agustin Moscoso Vintimilla Jose Otavio Costa Auler Jr Maria Jose Carvalho Carmona Luiz Augusto Carneiro D'Alburquerque | 2021 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2021,27,12: | 6 |

| 5 | Hepatitis B infection among adults in the philippines:A national seroprevalence study显示文摘AIM:To determine the prevalence of hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)seropositivity among adult Filipinos.METHODS:Testing for HBsAg was performed on serum samples from persons aged ≥ 20 years old who participated in the National Nutrition and Health Survey(NNHeS)conducted in 2003.Information on age,sex,marital status,educational attainment,employment status,and income were collected.For this study,marital status was classified as never married or otherwise(i.e.,married,divorced,separated,widowed);educational attainment was classified as high school graduate or below or at least some tertiary education;and employment status was classified as currently employed or currently unemployed.Annual income was divided into 4 quartiles in Philippine pesos(PhP):Q1,≤ PhP 53064;Q2,PhP 53065-92192;Q3,PhP 92193-173387;and Q4,≥ PhP 173388.Prevalence estimates were weighted so that they represented the general population.Social and demographic factors were correlated with HBsAg seropositivity.Multivariate analysis was used to determine independent predictors of HBsAg seropositivity.RESULTS:A total of 2150 randomly selected adults,20 years and over,out of the 4753 adult participants of NNHeS were tested for HBsAg.The HBsAg seroprevalence was 16.7%(95%CI:14.3%-19.1%),which corresponded to an estimated 7278968 persons infected with hepatitis B.There was no significant difference between males and females(17.5% vs 16.0%;P = 0.555).This corresponded to an estimated 3721775 men and 3557193 women infected with hepatitis B.The HBsAg seroprevalence peaked at age 20-39 years old,with declining prevalence in the older age groups.The only independent predictor of HBsAg seropositivity was the annual income,with persons in the highest income quartile being less likely to be HBsAg positive(age-adjusted OR = 0.51;95%CI:0.30-0.86)compared to subjects in the lowest income quartile.Sex,marital status,educational attainment,and employment status were not found to be independent predictors of HBsAg seropositivity.CONCLUSION:The high HBsAg seroprevalence among adults in the Philippines classifies the country as hyperendemic for HBV infection and appears unchanged over the last few decades. | Stephen N Wong Janus P Ong Madalinee Eternity D Labio Oscar T Cabahug Maria Lourdes O Daez Erlinda V Valdellon Jose D Sollano Jr Marilyn O Arguillas | 2013 | World Journal of Hepatology2013,5,4: | 3 |
| 6 | Quality of life, work productivity impairment and healthcare resources in inflammatory bowel diseases in Brazil显示文摘BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel diseases(IBD)have been associated with a low quality of life(QoL)and a negative impact on work productivity compared to the general population.Information about disease control,patient-reported outcomes(PROs),treatment patterns and use of healthcare resources is relevant to optimizing IBD management.AIM To describe QoL and work productivity and activity impairment(WPAI),treatment patterns and use of healthcare resources among IBD patients in Brazil.METHODS A multicenter cross-sectional study included adult outpatients who were previously diagnosed with moderate to severe Crohn’s disease(CD)or ulcerative colitis(UC).At enrolment,active CD and UC were defined as having a Harvey Bradshaw Index≥8 or a CD Activity Index≥220 or calprotectin>200μg/g or previous colonoscopy results suggestive of inadequate control(per investigator criteria)and a 9-point partial Mayo score≥5,respectively.The PRO assessment included the QoL questionnaires SF-36 and EQ-5D-5L,the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire(IBDQ),and the WPAI questionnaire.Information about healthcare resources and treatment during the previous 3 years was collected from medical records.Chi-square,Fisher’s exact and Student’s t-/Mann-Whitney U tests were used to compare PROs,treatment patterns and the use of healthcare resources by disease activity(α=0.05).RESULTS Of the 407 patients in this study(CD/UC:64.9%/35.1%,mean age 42.9/45.9 years,54.2%/56.6%female,38.3%/37.1%employed),44.7%/25.2%presented moderate-to-severe CD/UC activity,respectively,at baseline.Expressed in median values for CD/UC,respectively,the SF-36 physical component was 46.6/44.7 and the mental component was 45.2/44.2,the EQ-visual analog scale score was 80.0/70.0,and the IBDQ overall score was 164.0/165.0.Moderate to severe activity,female gender,being unemployed,a lower educational level and lower income were associated with lower QoL(P<0.05).Median work productivity impairment was 20%and 5%for CD and UC patients,respectively,and activity impairment was 30%,the latter being higher among patients with moderate to severe disease activity compared to patients with mild or no disease activity(75.0%vs 10.0%,P<0.001).For CD/UC patients,respectively,25.4%/2.8%had at least one surgery,38.3%/19.6%were hospitalized,and 70.7%/77.6%changed IBD treatment at least once during the last 3 years.The most common treatments at baseline were biologics(75.3%)and immunosuppressants(70.9%)for CD patients and 5-ASA compounds(77.5%)for UC patients.CONCLUSION Moderate to severe IBD activity,especially among CD patients,is associated with a substantial impact on QoL,work productivity impairment and an increased number of IBD surgeries and hospitalizations in Brazil. | Rogerio Serafim Parra Julio MF Chebli Heda MBS Amarante Cristina Flores Jose ML Parente Odery Ramos Milene Fernandes Jose JR Rocha Marley R Feitosa Omar Feres Antonio S Scotton Rodrigo B Nones Murilo M Lima Cyrla Zaltman Carolina D Goncalves Isabella M Guimaraes Genoile O Santana Ligia Y Sassaki Rogerio S Hossne Mauro Bafutto Roberto LK Junior Mikaell AG Faria Sender J Miszputen Tarcia NF Gomes Wilson R Catapani Anderson A Faria Stella CS Souza Rosana F Caratin Juliana T Senra Maria LA Ferrari | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,38: | 2 |
| 7 | Inflammation-related gene expression profiles of salivary extracellular vesicles in patients with head trauma显示文摘At present,there is no reliable biomarker for the diagnosis of traumatic brain injury(TBI).Studies have shown that extracellular vesicles released by damaged cells into biological fluids can be used as potential biomarkers for diagnosis of TBI and evaluation of TBI severity.We hypothesize that the genetic profile of salivary extracellular vesicles in patients with head trauma differs from that in uninjured subjects.Findings from this hypothesis would help investigate the severity of TBI.This study included 19 subjects,consisting of seven healthy controls who denied history of head trauma,six patients diagnosed with concussion injury from an outpatient concussion clinic,and six patients with TBI who received treatment in the emergency department within 24 hours after injury.Real-time PCR analysis of salivary extracellular vesicles in participants was performed using TaqMan Human Inflammation array.Gene expression analysis revealed nine upregulated genes in emergency department patients(LOX5,ANXA3,CASP1,IL2RG,ITGAM,ITGB2,LTA4H,MAPK14,and TNFRSF1A)and 13 upregulated genes in concussion clinic patients compared with healthy participants(ADRB1,ADRB2,BDKRB1,HRH1,HRH2,LTB4R2,LTB4R,PTAFR,CYSLTR1,CES1,KLK1,MC2R,and PTGER3).Each patient group had a unique profile.Comparison between groups showed that 15 inflammation-related genes had significant expression change.Our results indicate that inflammation biomarkers can be used for diagnosis of TBI and evaluation of disease severity.This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board on December 18,2015(approval No.0078-12)and on June 9,2016(approval No.4093-16). | Yan Cheng Mandy Pereira Neha P.Raukar John L.Reagan Mathew Quesenberry Laura Goldberg Theodor Borgovan W Curt LaFrance Jr Mark Dooner Maria Deregibus Giovanni Camussi Bharat Ramratnam Peter Quesenberry | 2020 | Neural Regeneration Research2020,15,4: | 2 |
| 8 | Interleukin-6-174G/C polymorphism is associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus显示文摘BACKGROUND Chronic hepatitis C(CHC)is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Although the pathogenesis remains to be elucidated,a growing evidence has suggested a role of pro-inflammatory immune response.Increased serum concentrations of Interleukin 6(IL-6)have been associated with insulin resistance,type 2 diabetes mellitus as well as advanced forms of liver disease in chronic hepatitis C infection.AIM To investigate the frequency of IL-6-174G/C(rs1800795)single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)in CHC patients and in healthy subjects of the same ethnicity.Associations between type 2 diabetes mellitus(dependent variable)and demographic,clinical,nutritional,virological and,IL-6 genotyping data were also investigated in CHC patients.METHODS Two hundred and forty-five patients with CHC and 179 healthy control subjects(blood donors)were prospectively included.Type 2 diabetes mellitus was diagnosed according to the criteria of the American Diabetes Association.Clinical,biochemical,histological and radiological methods were used for the diagnosis of the liver disease.IL-6 polymorphism was evaluated by Taqman SNP genotyping assay.The data were analysed by logistic regression models.RESULTS Type 2 diabetes mellitus,blood hypertension and liver cirrhosis were observed in 20.8%(51/245),40.0%(98/245)and 38.4%(94/245)of the patients,respectively.The frequency of the studied IL-6 SNP did not differ between the CHC patients and controls(P=0.81)and all alleles were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium(P=0.38).In the multivariate analysis,type 2 diabetes mellitus was inversely associated with GC and CC genotypes of IL-6-174(OR=0.42;95%CI=0.22-0.78;P=0.006)and positively associated with blood hypertension(OR=5.56;95%CI=2.79-11.09;P<0.001).CONCLUSION This study was the first to show that GC and CC genotypes of IL-6-174 SNP are associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus in patients chronically infected with hepatitis C virus.The identification of potential inflammatory mediators involved in the crosstalk between hepatitis C virus and the axis pancreas-liver remains important issues that deserve further investigations. | Cliviany Borges da Silva Diego Alves Vieira Luisa Freitas de Melo Anna Luiza Soares Chagas Adriana Dias Gomes César Lúcio Lopes de Faria Jr Rosangela Teixeira Dulciene Maria de Magalh?es Queiroz Gifone Aguiar Rocha Maria Marta Sarquis Soares Juliana Maria Trindade Bezerra Luciana Diniz Silva | 2020 | World Journal of Hepatology2020,12,4: | 2 |
| 9 | Species of Lasiodiplodia associated with mango in Brazil显示文摘Mango(Mangifera indica)is a major tropical fruit species cultivated in Brazil.The objective of this study was to identify species of Lasiodiplodia associated with dieback and stem-end rot of mango in the semi-arid region of Northeastern Brazil,and compare the species in relation to mycelial growth,pathogenicity and virulence.A total of 120 isolates of Lasiodiplodia were used and identifications were made using a combination of morphology and phylogenetic analysis based on partial translation elongation factor 1-αsequence(EF1-α)and internal transcribed spacers(ITS).The following species were identified:Lasiodiplodia crassispora,L.egyptiacae,L.hormozganensis,L.iraniensis,L.pseudotheobromae,L.theobromae and Lasiodiplodia sp..Lasiodiplodia theobromae was the most frequently isolated species,which represented 41%of all the isolates.Only this species had been previously reported on mango in Brazil,while the other species represent the first report associated with mango tree diseases in this country.Lasiodiplodia crassispora is reported for the first time associated with mango diseases worldwide.There were significant differences in mycelial growth rates among the Lasiodiplodia species and also in the optimum temperature for growth.All species of Lasiodiplodia were pathogenic on mango fruit.There were significant differences in virulence among the species,wherein L.hormozganensis and Lasiodiplodia sp.were the most virulent,while the least virulent were L.iraniensis,L.pseudotheobromae,L.crassispora and L.egyptiacae. | Marília W.Marques Nelson B.Lima Marcos Antônio de Morais Jr Maria Angélica G.Barbosa Breno O.Souza Sami J.Michereff Alan J.L.Phillips Marcos P.S.Câmara | 2013 | Fungal Diversity2013,,4: | 2 |
