| 1 | Gut microbiota and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease显示文摘BACKGROUND: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) is a common disorder with poorly understood pathogenesis. Beyond environmental and genetic factors,cumulative data support the causative role of gut microbiota in disease development and progression.DATA SOURCE: We performed a Pub Med literature search with the following key words: 'non-alcoholic fatty liver disease','non-alcoholic steatohepatitis','fatty liver','gut microbiota' and 'microbiome',to review the data implicating gut microbiota in NAFLD development and progression.RESULTS: Recent metagenomic studies revealed differences in the phylum and genus levels between patients with fatty liver and healthy controls. While bacteroidetes and firmicutes remain the dominant phyla among NAFLD patients,their proportional abundance and genera detection vary among different studies. New techniques indicate a correlation between the methanogenic archaeon(methanobrevibacter smithii) and obesity,while the bacterium akkermanshia municiphila protects against metabolic syndrome. Among NAFLD patients,small intestinal bacterial overgrowth detected by breath tests might induce gut microbiota and host interactions,facilitating disease development.CONCLUSIONS: There is evidence that gut microbiota participates in NAFLD development through,among others,obesity induction,endogenous ethanol production,inflammatory response triggering and alterations in choline metabolism. Further studies with emerging techniques are needed to further elucidate the microbiome and host crosstalk in NAFLD pathogenesis. | Paraskevas Gkolfakis George Dimitriadis Konstantinos Triantafyllou | 2015 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2015,14,6: | 22 |
| 2 | Long acting octreotide in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular cancer and overexpression of somatostatin receptors: Randomized placebo-controlled trial显示文摘AIM: To estimate if and to what extent long acting octreotide (LAR) improves survival and quality of life in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: A total of 127 cirrhotics, stages A-B, due to chronic viral infections and with advanced HCC, were enrolled in the study. Scintigraphy with 111Indium labeled octreotide was performed in all cases. The patients with increased accumulation of radionuclear compound were randomized to receive either oral placebo only or octreotide/octreotide LAR only as follows: octreotide 0.5mg s.c. every 8 h for 6 wk, at the end of wk 4-8 octreotide LAR 20 mg i.m. and at the end of wk 12 and every 4 wk octreotide LAR 30mg i.m.. Follow-up was worked out monthly as well as the estimation of quality of life (QLQ-C30 questionnaire). Patients with negative somatostatin receptors (SSTR) detection were followed up in the same manner. RESULTS: Scintigraphy demonstrated SSTR in 61 patients. Thirty were randomized to receive only placebo and 31 only octreotide. A significantly higher survival time was observed for the octreotide group (49 ± 6 wk) as compared to the control group (28 ± 1 wk) and to the SSTR negative group (28 ± 2 wk), LR = 20.39, df = 2, P < 0.01. The octreotide group presented 68.5% lower hazard ratio [95% CI (47.4%-81.2%)]. During the f irst year, a 22%, 39% and 43% decrease in the QLQ-C30 score was observed in each group respectively.CONCLUSION: The proposed therapeutic approach has shown to improve the survival and quality of life in SSTR positive patients with advanced HCC. | D Dimitroulopoulos D Xinopoulos K Tsamakidis A Zisimopoulos E Andriotis D Panagiotakos A Fotopoulou C Chrysohoou A Bazinis D Daskalopoulou E Paraskevas | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,23: | 18 |
| 3 | Delayed gastric emptying is associated with pylorus-preserving but not classical Whipple pancreaticoduodenectomy:A review of the literature and critical reappraisal of the implicated pathomechanism显示文摘Pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (PPPD) is nowadays considered the treatment of choice for periampullary tumors, namely carcinoma of the head, neck, or uncinate process of the pancreas, the ampulla of Vater, distal common bile duct or carcinoma of the peri-Vaterian duodenum. Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) comprises one of the most troublesome complications of this procedure. A search of the literature using Pubmed/Medline was performed to identify clinical trials examining the incidence rate of DGE following standard Whipple pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) vs PPPD. Additionally we performed a thorough in-depth analysis of the implicated pathomechanism underlying the occurrence of DGE after PPPD. In contrast to early studies, the majority of recently performed clinical trials demonstrated no significant association between the occurrence of DGE with either PD or PPPD. PD and PPPD procedures are equally effective operations regarding the postoperative occurrence of DGE. Further randomized trials are required to investigate the effi cacy of a recently reported (but not yet tested in large- scale studies) modifi cation, that is, PPPD with antecolic duodenojejunostomy. | Kosmas I Paraskevas Costas Avgerinos Costas Manes Dimitris Lytras Christos Dervenis | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,37: | 16 |
| 4 | How to identify which patients with asymptomatic carotid stenosis could benefit from endarterectomy or stenting显示文摘Offering routine carotid endarterectomy(CEA)or carotid artery stenting(CAS)to patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis(ACS)is no longer considered as the optimal management of these patients.Equally suboptimal,however,is the policy of offering only best medical treatment(BMT)to all patients with ACS and not considering any of them for prophylactic CEA.In the last few years,there have been many studies aiming to identify reliable predictors of future cerebrovascular events that would allow the identification of patients with high-risk ACS and offer a prophylactic carotid intervention only to these patients to prevent them from becoming symptomatic.All patients with ACS should receive BMT.The present article will summarise the evidence suggesting ways to identify these high-risk asymptomatic individuals,namely:(1)microemboli detection on transcranial Doppler,(2)plaque echolucency on Duplex ultrasound,(3)progression in the severity of ACS,(4)silent embolic infarcts on brain CT/MRI,(5)reduced cerebrovascular reserve,(6)increased size of juxtaluminal hypoechoic area,(7)identification of intraplaque haemorrhage using MRI and(8)carotid ulceration.The evidence suggests that approximately 10%-15%of patents with asymptomatic stenosis might benefit from intervention;this will become more clear after publication of ongoing studies comparing stenting or endarterectomy with best medical therapy.In the meantime,no patient should be offered intervention unless there is evidence of high risk of ipsilateral stroke,from modalities such as those discussed here. | Kosmas I Paraskevas Frank J Veith J David Spence | 2018 | Stroke & Vascular Neurology2018,3,2: | 10 |
| 5 | Pancreatic duct guidewire placement for biliary cannulation in a single-session therapeutic ERCP显示文摘AIM: To investigate the technical success and clinical complication rate of a cannulated pancreatic duct with guidewire for biliary access. METHODS: During a five-year study period, a total of 2843 patients were included in this retrospective analysis. Initial biliary cannulation method consisted of single-guidewire technique (SGT) for up to 5 attempts, followed by double-guidewire technique (DGT) when repeated unintentional pancreatic duct cannulation had taken place. Pre-cut papillotomy technique was reserved for when DGT had failed or no pancreatic duct cannulation had been previously achieved. Main outcome measurements were defined as biliary cannu-lation success and post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) complication rate. RESULTS: SGT (92.3% success rate) was characterized by statistically significant enhanced patient outcome compared to either the DGT (43.8%, P < 0.001), pre-cut failed DGT (73%, P < 0.001) or pre-cut as first step method (80.6%, P = 0.002). Pre-cut as first step method offered a statistically significantly more favorable outcome compared to the DGT (P < 0.001). The incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis did not differ in a statistically significant manner between either method (SGT: 5.3%, DGT: 6.1%, Pre-cut failed DGT: 7.9%, Pre-cut as first step: 7.5%) or with patients' gender. CONCLUSION: Although DGT success rate proved not to be superior to SGT or pre-cut papillotomy, it is considered highly satisfactory in terms of safety in order to avoid the risk of a pre-cut when biliary therapy is necessary in difficult-to-cannulate cases. | Dimitrios Xinopoulos Stefanos P Bassioukas Dimitrios Kypreos Dimitrios Korkolis Andreas Scorilas Konstantinos Mavridis Dimitrios Dimitroulopoulos Emmanouil Paraskevas | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,15: | 8 |
| 6 | Gastrointestinal stromal tumor causing small bowel intussusception in a patient with Crohn’s disease显示文摘We report a case of jejunoileal intussusception in a 42-year-old patient with Crohn's disease caused by a gastrointestinal stromal tumor. The patient complained of vague diffuse abdominal pain for a period of 4 mo. Intussusception was suspected at computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans. Segmental resection of the small intestine was performed. Pathological examination of the surgical specimen revealed a gastrointestinal stromal tumor as well as aphthous ulcerations and areas of inflammation, which were characteristic of Crohn's disease. This is the f irst report of small bowel intussusception due to a gastrointestinal stromal tumor coexisting with Crohn's disease. | George E Theodoropoulos Dimitrios Linardoutsos Dimitrios Tsamis Paraskevas Stamopoulos Dimitrios Giannopoulos Flora Zagouri Nikolaos V Michalopoulos | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,41: | 7 |
| 7 | Colonoscopy attachments for the detection of precancerous lesions during colonoscopy:A review of the literature显示文摘Although colonoscopy has been proven effective in reducing the incidence of colorectal cancer through the detection and removal of precancerous lesions, it remains an imperfect examination, as it can fail in detecting up to almost one fourth of existing adenomas. Among reasons accounting for such failures, is the inability to meticulously visualize the colonic mucosa located either proximal to haustral folds or anatomic curves, including the hepatic and splenic flexures. In order to overcome these limitations, various colonoscope attachments aiming to improve mucosal visualization have been developed. All of them-transparent cap, Endocuff, Endocuff Vision and Endorings-are simply mounted onto the distal tip of the scope. In this review article, we introduce the rationale of their development, present their mode of action and discuss in detail the effect of their implementation in the detection of lesions during colonoscopy. | Paraskevas Gkolfakis Georgios Tziatzios Eleftherios Spartalis Ioannis S Papanikolaou Konstantinos Triantafyllou | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,37: | 5 |
| 8 | Totally laparoscopic left hepatectomy using the Torsional Ultrasonic Scalpel显示文摘Minimal invasive techniques have allowed for major surgical advances.We report our initial experience of performing total laparoscopic left hepatectomy(segmentsⅡ-Ⅳ)with the Lotus(laparoscopic operation by torsional ultrasound)Ultrasonic Scalpel.The perioperative and postoperative courses of the young female patient were uneventful and she is in a good general condition without complaints 18 mo after surgery.To the best of our knowledge,this is the first total laparoscopic hemihepatectomy to be performed in Greece,as well as the first laparoscopic liver resection using Lotus shears. | Georgios C Sotiropoulos Paraskevas Stamopoulos Petros Charalampoudis Ernesto P Molmenti Athanasios Voutsarakis Gregory Kouraklis | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,35: | 5 |
| 9 | Molecular aspects of carcinogenesis in pancreatic cancer显示文摘BACKGROUND:Pancreatic cancer(PCa)is one of the most aggressive human solid tumors,with rapid growth and metastatic spread as well as resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs,leading rapidly to virtually incurable disease.Over the last 20 years,however,significant advances have been made in our understanding of the molecular biology of PCa,with a focus on the cytogenetic abnormalities in PCa cell growth and differentiation. DATA SOURCES:A MEDLINE search and manual cross- referencing were utilized to identify published data for PCa molecular biology studies between 1986 and 2008, with emphasis on genetic alterations and developmental oncology. RESULTS:Activation of oncogenes,deregulation of tumor suppressor and genome maintenance genes,upregulation of growth factors/growth factor receptor signaling cascade systems,and alterations in cytokine expression,have been reported to play important roles in the process of pancreatic carcinogenesis.Alterations in the K-ras proto- oncogene and the p16INK4a,p53,FHIT,and DPC4 tumor suppressor genes occur in a high percentage of tumors. Furthermore,a variety of growth factors are expressed at increased levels.In addition,PCa often exhibits alterations in growth inhibitory pathways and evades apoptosis through p53 mutations and aberrant expression of apoptosis-regulating genes,such as members of the Bcl family.Additional pathways in the development of an aggressive phenotype,local infiltration and metastasis are still under ongoing genetic research.The present paper reviews recent studies on the pathogenesis of PCa,and includes a brief reference to alterations reported for other types of pancreatic tumor. CONCLUSIONS:Advances in molecular genetics and biology have improved our perception of the pathogenesis of PCa.However,further studies are needed to better understand the fundamental changes that occur in PCa,thus leading to better diagnostic and therapeutic management. | Alexandros Koliopanos Constantinos Avgerinos Constantina Paraskeva Zisis Touloumis Dionisisa Kelgiorgi Christos Dervenis | 2008 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2008,7,4: | 4 |

| 11 | An unusual case of prolonged post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography jaundice显示文摘Despite the effectiveness of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) for the treatment of choledocholithiasis, various complications have been described. We herein report the first case of prolonged postERCP jaundice due to toxicity of the contrast agent Iobitridol(~174;XENETIX, Guerbet, Roissy Cd G Cedex, France) in a patient who underwent ERCP with sphincterectomy and common bile duct stone removal. While clinical improvement and normalization of aminotransferases and cholestatic enzymes after the procedure, an unexplained increase of direct bilirubin was noticed. A second ERCP was performed one week later, excluding possible remaining choledocholithiasis. Nevertheless, serum direct bilirubin increased further up to 15 mg/d L. Other potential causes of direct hyperbilirubinemia were ruled out and patient's liver biopsy was compatible with drug-induced liver toxicity. Additionally, the cause-result time connection between the use of Iobitridol and bilirubin increase indicated the possibility of a toxic effect related to the repeated use of the particular contrast agent. Iobitridol, a contrast agent, can induce prolonged direct hyperbilirubinemia. | Georgios Tziatzios Paraskevas Gkolfakis Ioannis S Papanikolaou George Dimitriadis Konstantinos Triantafyllou | 2016 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2016,15,2: | 4 |

| 13 | Non-thermal laser driven plasma-blocks for proton boron avalanche fusion as direct drive option显示文摘Fusion energy from protons reacting with ^(11) B,HB11,is extremely difficult or impossible when using thermal ignition by laser irradiation.This changes radically when using picosecond laser pulses with powers above petawatts dominated by nonlinear force driven ultrahigh ac-celeration of plasma blocks for a non-thermal initiation of igniting solid density HB11 fuel.For a cylindrical trapping of the reaction,laser produced ultrahigh magnetic fields above kiloTesla,have to be combined.The experimentally confirmed highly increased HB11 fusion gains due to avalanche reaction may lead to a scheme of an environmentally clean and economic power reactor. | Heinrich Hora Shalom Eliezer Noaz Nissim Paraskevas Lalousis | 2017 | Matter and Radiation at Extremes2017,2,4: | 2 |

| 15 | Immunohistochemical localization of glutathione S-transferase-pi in human colorectal polyps显示文摘AIM:To investigate the distribution of the placental form of glutathione-S-transferase (GST) in colon polyps in order to evaluate the role of GST-pi in these tissues. METHODS: Sixteen polyp tissues removed at colonoscopy were examined. Tissues were investigated histologically and ultrastructurally. GST-pi expression was also analysed immunohistochemically, using peroxidase anti-peroxidase (PAP) method and immunogold labelling method, for light and electron microscope respectively. RESULTS: All polyp tissues examined were adenoma of low, mild and high-grade dysplasia as shown in the histopathological reports. Nevertheless, the examination of the above specimens with electron microscope revealed that 3 of 9 adenoma of mild dysplasia had ultrastuctural features similar to high-grade dysplasia adenoma. GST-pi was variably expressed in adenoma, with the lowest relative levels occurring in low-gradeadenoma and the highest levels found in high-grade adenoma. GST-pi was located mainly in undifferentiated epithelial cells. GST-pi positive particles were found in the cytoplasm and especially in the nucleus adjacent to the nuclear membrane of these cells. CONCLUSION:The overexpression of GST-pi in mildgrade adenomas with significant subcellular changes and in the majority of high-grade dysplasia adenoma suggests that this might be related to the carcinogenetic proceeding. Immunohistochemical localization of GST-pi in combination with ultrastructural changes indicate that GST-pi might be a sensitive agent for the detection of preneoplastic transformations in adenoma. | Eleni Gaitanarou Eleni Seretis Dimitrios Xinopoulos Emmanuel Paraskevas Niki Arnoyiannaki Irene Voloudakis-Baltatzis | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,26: | 2 |
