1Pancreatic insulinoma:current issues and trends显示文摘BACKGROUND:Although insulinomas are very rare tumors, they are the most common pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms.The incidence in general population is 1-4 per 1 000 000 yearly but the incidence is higher in autopsy studies. The malignancy of insulinomas is difficult to be predicted on the basis of their histological features,and the current WHO classification has been re-evaluated.This review aimed to summarize classical knowledge with current trends in the diagnosis and treatment of insulinomas. DATA SOURCES:A Medline search using terms'insulinoma', 'treatment'and'neuroendocrine tumors'was conducted. Additional references were sourced from key articles. RESULTS:Surgery is the treatment of choice for insulinoma and has an extremely high success rate.Medical treatment is also available but only for patients who are unable or unwilling to undergo surgical treatment.Preoperative localization is necessary for planning the surgical approach.Many methods exist for localization of an insulinoma and can be invasive and non-invasive.The combination of biphasic thin section helical CT and endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS)has an almost 100% sensitivity in localizing insulinomas.Laparoscopic ultrasound is mandatory to localize intraoperatively these tumors.EUS-guided fine needle tattoing is an alternative method of localization in case of lack of laparoscopic ultrasound. CONCLUSION:Laparoscopic resection for benign insulinomas is the procedure of choice,whereas pancreatectomy is reserved for large,potentially malignant tumors.Dennis Vaidakis John Karoubalis Theodora Pappa George Piaditis George N Zografos 2010Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2010,9,3:22
2Surgical management of necrotizing pancreatitis:An overview显示文摘Necrotizing pancreatitis is an uncommon yet serious complication of acute pancreatitis with mortality rates reported up to 15%that reach 30%in case of infection.Traditionally open surgical debridement was the only tool in our disposal to manage this serious clinical entity.This approach is however associated with poor outcomes.Management has now shifted away from open surgical debridement to a more conservative management and minimally invasive approaches.Contemporary approach to patients with necrotizing pancreatitis and/or infectious pancreatitis is summarized in the 3Ds:Delay,Drain and Debride.Patients can be managed in the intensive care unit and any intervention should be delayed.Percutaneous drainage can be utilized first and early in the course of the disease,followed by endoscopic drainage or video assisted retroperitoneoscopic drainage if necrosectomy is deemed necessary.Open surgery is now less frequently performed and should be reserved for cases refractory to any other approach.The management of necrotizing pancreatitis therefore requires a multidisciplinary dynamic model of approach rather than being a surgical disease.George Kokosis Alexander Perez Theodore N Pappas 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,43:16

4Prevalence of hepatitis B and C markers among refugees in Athens显示文摘AIM: To assess the prevalence of hepatitis B and C serological markers in a population of refugees living in Athens.METHODS: One hundred and thirty refugees (81 males and 49 females, mean age ±SD: 31.7±8 years) were included in the study. The hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg),the hepatitis B virus core antibody (anti-HBc) and the hepatitis C virus antibody (anti-HCV) were detected using a third-generation immunoassay.RESULTS: Twenty individuals (15.4%) were HBsAg positive and 69 (53.1%) were anti-HBc positive. The prevalence of HBsAg and anti-HBc was higher among refugees from Albania and Asia (statistical significant difference, P<0.008 and P<0.001 respectively). The prevalence of these markers was found irrelevant to age or sex. Anti-HCV was detected in the serum of 3 individuals (2.3 %). No differences among age, sex or ethnicity regarding anti-HCV prevalence were found.CONCLUSION: It can be concluded that refugees living in Athens are an immigrant population characterized by a high incidence of HBV infection. The prevalence of HBV markers is higher among refugees from Albania and Asia. It is therefore believed that the adherence to general precautions and the initiation of HBV vaccination programs will be necessary in the future, especially in these communities.Although the prevalence of HCV infection seems to be relatively low, extended epidemiological surveys are needed to provide valid results.Anastasios Roussos Constantin Goritsas Thomas Pappas Maria Spanaki Panagiota Papadaki Angeliki Ferti 2003World Journal of Gastroenterology2003,9,5:11
5Post-partum reactivation of chronic hepatitis B virus infection among hepatitis B e-antigen-negative women显示文摘AIM: To investigate the frequency and timing of post-partum chronic hepatitis B virus(HBV) reactivation and identify its pre-partum predictors. METHODS: Forty-one hepatitis B e antigen(HBe Ag)-negative chronic HBV infected pregnant women were prospectively evaluated between the 28 th and the 32 nd week of gestation. Subjects were re-evaluated at 3-mo intervals during the first post-partum year and every 6 mo during the following years. HBV DNA was determined using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(Cobas Taq Man HBV Test) with a lower detection limit of 8 IU/m L. Post-partum reactivation(PPR) was defined as abnormal alanine aminotransaminase(ALT) levels and HBV DNA above 2000 IU/m L. RESULTS: Fourteen out of 41 women(34.1%) had prepartum HBV DNA levels > 2000 IU/m L, 18(43.9%) had levels < 2000 IU/m L and 9(21.9%) had undetectable levels. Fourteen women were lost to follow-up(failure to return). PPR occurred in 8 of the 27(29.6%) women evaluated, all within the first 6 mo after delivery(5 at month 3; 3 at month 6). Five of the 6(83.3%) women with pre-partum HBV DNA > 10000 IU/m L exhibited PPR compared with 3 of the 21(14.3%) women with HBV DNA < 10000 IU/m L(two with HBV DNA > 2000 and the third with HBV DNA of 1850IU/m L), P = 0.004. An HBV DNA level ≥ 10000 IU/m L independently predicted post-partum HBV infection reactivation(OR = 57.02, P = 0.033). Mean pre-partum ALT levels presented a non-significant increase in PPR cases(47.3 IU/L vs 22.2 IU/L, respectively, P = 0.094).CONCLUSION: In the present study, PPR occurred in approximately 30% of HBe Ag-negative pregnant women; all events were observed during the first semester after delivery. Pre-partum HBV DNA level > 10000 IU/m L predicted PPR.Ioannis Elefsiniotis Elena Vezali Dimitrios Vrachatis Sofia Hatzianastasiou Stefanos Pappas George Farmakidis Georgia Vrioni Athanasios Tsakris 2015World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,4:7
6Albuminuria as a marker of arterial stiffness in chronic kidney disease patients显示文摘AIM:To access the association between albuminuria levels and arterial stiffness in non-diabetic patients with hypertension and chronic kidney disease(CKD) stages 1-2,treated with renin angiotensin blockade agents plus other hypertensive drugs when needed.METHODS:One hundred fifteen patients [median age 52 years(68% males)] were consequently enrolled in the study.For each patient,we recorded gender,age,body mass index(BMI),peripheral systolic blood pressure(p SBP),peripheral diastolic blood pressure,peripheral pulse pressure,central systolic blood pressure(c SBP),central diastolic blood pressure(c DBP),central pulse pressure(c PP),hematocrit,hemoglobin,hs CRP,total cholesterol triglycerides,high-density lipoprotein-C,low-density lipoprotein-C,calcium,phosphorus,parathormone,and albumin,as well as 24 h urine albumin excretion.According to 24-h urine albumin collection,patients were then classified as those with moderately increased albuminuria(formerly called macroalbuminuria)(≤ 300 mg/d) and those with severely increased albuminuria(formerly called macroaluminuria(> 300 mg/d).We considered aortic stiffness(AS) indices [carotid femoral pulse wave velocity(PWVc-f) and augmentation index(AIx)] as primary outcomes ofthe study.We explored potential correlations between severely increased albuminuria and AS indices using a multiple linear regression model.RESULTS:Fifty-eight patients were included in the moderately increased albuminuria group and 57 in the severely increased albuminuria.Blood pressure measurements of the study population were 138 ± 14/82 ± 1.3 mm Hg(systolic/diastolic).There were no significant differences in age,sex,and BP measurements between the two groups.Patients with severely increased albuminuria had higher PWV and AIx than patients with moderately increased albuminuria(P < 0.02,P < 0.004,respectively).In addition these patients exhibited higher BMI(P < 0.03),hs CRP(P < 0.001),and fibrinogen levels(P < 0.02) compared to patients with moderately increased albuminuria.In multivariate linear regression analysis,severely increased albuminuria(β = 1.038,P < 0.010) p SBP(β = 0.028,P < 0.034) and Ht(β = 0.171,P = 0.001) remained independent determinants of the increased PWVc-f.Similarly,severely increased albuminuria(β = 4.385,P < 0.012),c SBP(β = 0.242,P < 0.001),c PP(β = 0.147,P < 0.01) and Ht levels(β = 0.591,P < 0.013) remained independent determinants of increased AIx.CONCLUSION:These findings demonstrate an independent association between AS indices and severely increased albuminuria in non-diabetic,hypertensive patients with CKD stages 1-2 treated with renin angiotensin aldosterone system blockers.Rigas G Kalaitzidis Despina P Karasavvidou Athina Tatsioni Kosmas Pappas Giorgos Katatsis Angelos Liontos Moses S Elisaf 2015World Journal of Nephrology2015,4,3:5
7Transcriptome analyses of the Dof-like gene family in grapevine reveal its involvement in berry, flower and seed development显示文摘The Dof(DNA-binding with one finger)protein family spans a group of plant transcription factors involved in the regulation of several functions,such as plant responses to stress,hormones and light,phytochrome signaling and seed germination.Here we describe the Dof-like gene family in grapevine(Vitis vinifera L.),which consists of 25 genes coding for Dof.An extensive in silico characterization of the VviDofL gene family was performed.Additionally,the expression of the entire gene family was assessed in 54 grapevine tissues and organs using an integrated approach with microarray(cv Corvina)and real-time PCR(cv Pinot Noir)analyses.The phylogenetic analysis comparing grapevine sequences with those of Arabidopsis,tomato,poplar and already described Dof genes in other species allowed us to identify several duplicated genes.The diversification of grapevine DofL genes during evolution likely resulted in a broader range of biological roles.Furthermore,distinct expression patterns were identified between samples analyzed,corroborating such hypothesis.Our expression results indicate that several VviDofL genes perform their functional roles mainly during flower,berry and seed development,highlighting their importance for grapevine growth and production.The identification of similar expression profiles between both approaches strongly suggests that these genes have important regulatory roles that are evolutionally conserved between grapevine cvs Corvina and Pinot Noir.Danielle Costenaro da Silva Vítor da Silveira Falavigna Marianna Fasoli Vanessa Buffon Diogo Denardi Porto Georgios Joannis Pappas Jr Mario Pezzotti Giancarlo Pasquali Luís Fernando Revers 2016Horticulture Research2016,3,1:5

9Terlipressin improves pulmonary pressures in cirrhotic patients with pulmonary hypertension and variceal bleeding or hepatorenal syndrome显示文摘Terlipressin has been shown to improve both pulmonary and systemic hemodynamics in stable cirrhotic patients with pulmonary hypertension,whereas other vasoconstrictors may cause pulmonary pressures to deteriorate We investigated the pulmonary and systemic hemodynamic effects of the first terlipressin dose(2 mg) in 7 cirrhotic patients with PH presenting with variceal bleeding(n=4) or hepatorenal syndrome(n=3).Terlipressin decreased pulmonary vascular resistance(158.8±8.9 vs 186.5±13.9 dynes sec cm-5 ;P=0.003) together with an increase in systemic vascular resistance(2143± 126 vs 1643±126 dynes sec cm-5 ;P<0.001).Terlipressin should be the vasoconstrictor treatment of choice when patients present with variceal bleeding or HRS.George N Kalambokis Konstantinos Pappas Epameinondas V Tsianos 2012Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2012,11,4:4

11Cardiovascular disease: Risk factors and applicability of a risk model in a Greek cohort of renal transplant recipients显示文摘AIM To investigate the incidence and the determinants of cardiovascular morbidity in Greek renal transplant recipients(RTRs) expressed as major advance cardiac event(MACE) rate. METHODS Two hundred and forty-two adult patients with a functioning graft for at least three months and availabledata that were followed up on the August 31, 2015 at two transplant centers of Western Greece were included in this study. Baseline recipients' data elements included demographics, clinical characteristics, history of comorbid conditions and laboratory parameters. Follow-up data regarding MACE occurrence were collected retrospectively from the patients' records and MACE risk score was calculated for each patient. RESULTS The mean age was 53 years(63.6% males) and 47 patients(19.4%) had a pre-existing cardiovascular disease(CVD) before transplantation. The mean estimated glomerular filtration rate was 52 ± 17 mL /min per 1.73 m2. During follow-up 36 patients(14.9%) suffered a MACE with a median time to MACE 5 years(interquartile range: 2.2-10 years). Recipients with a MACE compared to recipients without a MACE had a significantly higher mean age(59 years vs 52 years, P < 0.001) and a higher prevalence of pre-existing CVD(44.4% vs 15%, P < 0.001). The 7-year predicted mean risk for MACE was 14.6% ± 12.5% overall. In RTRs who experienced a MACE, the predicted risk was 22.3% ± 17.1% and was significantly higher than in RTRs without an event 13.3% ± 11.1%(P = 0.003). The discrimination ability of the model in the Greek database of RTRs was good with an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve of 0.68(95%CI: 0.58-0.78).CONCLUSION In this Greek cohort of RTRs, MACE occurred in 14.9% of the patients, pre-existing CVD was the main risk factor, while MACE risk model was proved a dependable utility in predicting CVD post RT.Nikolaos-Andreas Anastasopoulos Evangelia Dounousi Evangelos Papachristou Charalampos Pappas Eleni Leontaridou Eirini Savvidaki Dimitrios Goumenos Michael Mitsis 2017World Journal of Transplantation2017,7,1:3

15Genetic distinctions between autoimmune hepatitis in Italy and North America显示文摘AIM: Our goals were to analyze the known genetic predispositions for autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) in AIH Italian population and to compare them with North American counterparts.METHODS: Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) B8, C7, DR3,DR4, DR7, DR11, DR13, DQ2 and the B8-DR3-DQ2phenotype were determined by microlymphocytotoxicity and polymerase chain reaction in 74 Italian patients (57with type 1 and 17 with type 2 AIH) and 149 North American patients with type 1 AIH, and in adequate controls.RESULTS: B8-DR3-DQ2 occurred more frequently in Italian patients with type 1 AIH than in Italian controls (30% vs 7%, P<0.0001), but less frequently than in North American counterparts (30% vs48%, P = 0.02). DR4 occurred less frequently in Italian patients with type 1 AIH (23% vs43%,P= 0.01) and in controls (16% vs34%, P= 0.0003) than in North American counterparts. No differences were found in alleles' frequency between type 1 and type 2Italian AIH patients. DR11 had a frequency lower in type 1 Italian AIH patients than controls (17% vs35%, P= 0.01).CONCLUSION: HLA DR4 is not associated with AIH in Italy. The known HLA risk factors for ATH occur similarly in Italian patients with type 1 and type 2 AIH, and they are less frequent than in North American patients. B8-DR3-DQ2 is the predominant phenotype of type 1 AIH also in Italy, and HLA DR11 may be a regionally distinctive protective factor against type 1 AIH.Paolo Muratori Albert J.Czaja Luigi Muratori Georgios Pappas Silvana Maccariello Fabio Cassani Alessandro Granito Rodolfo Ferrari Vilma Mantovani Marco Lenzi Francesco B.Bianchi 2005World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,12:2
