| 1 | Major osteoporotic fragility fractures: Risk factor updates and societal impact显示文摘Osteoporosis is a silent disease without any evidence of disease until a fracture occurs. Approximately 200 million people in the world are affected by osteoporosis and 8.9 million fractures occur each year worldwide. Fractures of the hip are a major public health burden, by means of both social cost and health condition of the elderly because these fractures are one of the main causes of morbidity, impairment, decreased quality of life and mortality in women and men. The aim of this review is to analyze the most important factors related to the enormous impact of osteoporotic fractures on population. Among the most common risk factors, low body mass index; history of fragility fracture, environmental risk, early menopause, smoking, lack of vitamin D, endocrine disorders(for example insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus), use of glucocorticoids, excessive alcohol intake, immobility and others represented the main clinical risk factors associated with augmented risk of fragility fracture. The increasing trend of osteoporosis is accompanied by an underutilization of the available preventive strategies and only a small number of patients at high fracture risk are recognized and successively referred for therapy. This report provides analytic evidences to assess the best practices in osteoporosis management and indications for the adoption of a correct healthcare strategy to significantly reduce the osteoporosis burden. Early diagnosis is the key to resize the impact of osteoporosis on healthcare system. In this context, attention must be focused on the identification of high fracture risk among osteoporotic patients. It is necessary to increase national awareness campaigns across countries in order to reduce the osteoporotic fractures incidence. | Paola Pisani Maria Daniela Renna Francesco Conversano Ernesto Casciaro Marco Di Paola Eugenio Quarta Maurizio Muratore Sergio Casciaro | 2016 | World Journal of Orthopedics2016,7,3: | 39 |
| 2 | Sonographic markers for early diagnosis of fetal malformations显示文摘Fetal malformations are very frequent in industrialized countries.Although advanced maternal age may affect pregnancy outcome adversely,80%-90%of fetal malformations occur in the absence of a specific risk factor for parents.The only effective approach for prenatal screening is currently represented by an ultrasound scan.However,ultrasound methods present two important limitations:the substantial absence of quantitative parameters and the dependence on the sonographer experience.In recent years,together with the improvement in transducer technology,quantitative and objective sonographic markers highly predictive of fetal malformations have been developed.These markers can be detected at early gestation(11-14 wk)and generally are not pathological in themselves but have an increased incidence in abnormal fetuses.Thus,prenatal ultrasonography during the second trimester of gestation provides a'genetic sonogram',including,for instance,nuchal translucency,short humeral length,echogenic bowel,echogenic intracardiac focus and choroid plexus cyst,that is used to identify morphological features of fetal Down’s syndrome with a potential sensitivity of more than 90%.Other specific and sensitive markers can be seen in the case of cardiac defects and skeletal anomalies.In the future,sonographic markers could limit even more the use of invasive and dangerous techniques of prenatal diagnosis(amniocentesis,etc.). | Maria Daniela Renna Paola Pisani Francesco Conversano Emanuele Perrone Ernesto Casciaro Gian Carlo Di Renzo Marco Di Paola Antonio Perrone Sergio Casciaro | 2013 | World Journal of Radiology2013,5,10: | 12 |
| 3 | Proteomic insights on the metabolism in inflammatory bowel disease显示文摘Inflammatory bowel diseases(IBD)are chronic and relapsing inflammatory conditions of the gut that include Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.The pathogenesis of IBD is not completely unraveled,IBD are multi-factorial diseases with reported alterations in the gut microbiota,activation of different immune cell types,changes in the vascular endothelium,and alterations in the tight junctions’structure of the colonic epithelial cells.Proteomics represents a useful tool to enhance our biological understanding and to discover biomarkers in blood and intestinal specimens.It is expected to provide reproducible and quantitative data that can support clinical assessments and help clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of IBD.Sometimes a differential diagnosis of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis and the prediction of treatment response can be deducted by finding meaningful biomarkers.Although some non-invasive biomarkers have been described,none can be considered as the“gold standard”for IBD diagnosis,disease activity and therapy outcome.For these reason new studies have proposed an“IBD signature”,which consists in a panel of biomarkers used to assess IBD.The above described approach characterizes“omics”and in this review we will focus on proteomics. | Laura Francesca Pisani Manuela Moriggi Cecilia Gelfi Maurizio Vecchi Luca Pastorelli | 2020 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2020,26,7: | 5 |
| 4 | 屏蔽并且通过 X 光检查和超声的骨质疏松症的早诊断基于技术显示文摘 Effective prevention and management of osteoporosis would require suitable methods for population screenings and early diagnosis. Current clinicallyavailable diagnostic methods are mainly based on the use of either X-rays or ultrasound(US). All X-ray based methods provide a measure of bone mineral density(BMD), but it has been demonstrated that other structural aspects of the bone are important in determining fracture risk, such as mechanical features and elastic properties, which cannot be assessed using densitometric techniques. Among the most commonly used techniques, dual X-ray absorptiometry(DXA) is considered the current 'gold standard' for osteoporosis diagnosis and fracture risk prediction. Unfortunately, as other X-ray based techniques, DXA has specific limitations(e.g., use of ionizing radiation, large size of the equipment, high costs, limited availability) that hinder its application for population screenings and primary care diagnosis. This has resulted in an increasing interest in developing reliable pre-screening tools for osteoporosis such as quantitative ultrasound(QUS) scanners, which do not involve ionizing radiation exposure and represent a cheaper solution exploiting portable and widely available devices. Furthermore, the usefulness of QUS techniques in fracture risk prediction has been proven and, with the last developments, they are also becoming a more and more reliable approach for assessing bone quality. However, the US assessment of osteoporosis is currently used only as a pre-screening tool, requiring a subsequent diagnosis confirmation by means of a DXA evaluation. Here we illustrate the state of art in the early diagnosis of this 'silent disease' and show up recent advances for its prevention and improved management through early diagnosis. | Paola Pisani Maria Daniela Renna Francesco Conversano Ernesto Casciaro Maurizio Muratore Eugenio Quarta Marco Di Paola Sergio Casciaro | 2013 | World Journal of Radiology2013,5,11: | 4 |
| 5 | Natural history of a randomized trial comparing distal spleno-renal shunt with endoscopic sclerotherapy in the prevention of variceal rebleeding:A lesson from the past显示文摘AIM: To compare endoscopic sclerotherapy (ES) with distal splenorenal shunt (DSRS) in the prevention of recurrent variceal bleeding in cirrhotic patients during a long-term follow-up period. METHODS: In 1984 we started a prospective, controlled study of patients with liver cirrhosis. Long-term follow-up presents a natural history of liver cirrhosis complicated by advanced portal hypertension. In this study the effects of 2 types of treatment, DSRS or ES, were evaluated. The study population included 80 patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension referred to our department from October 1984 to March 1991. These patients were drawn from a pool of 282 patients who underwent either elective surgery or ES during the same period of time. Patients were assigned to one of the 2 groups according to a random number table: 40 to DSRS and 40 to ES using polidocanol. RESULTS: During the postoperative period, no DSRS patient died, while one ES patient died of uncontrolled hemorrhage. One DSRS patient had mild recurrent variceal hemorrhage despite an angiographically patent DSRS and another patient suffered duodenal ulcer rebleeding. Eight ES patients suffered at least one episode of gastrointestinal bleeding: 4 from varices and 4 from esophageal ulcerations. Eight ES patients developed transitory dysphagia. Long-term follow- up was completed in all patients except for 5 cases (2 DSRS and 3 ES patients). Five-year survival rates for shunt (73%) and ES (56%) groups were statistically different: in this follow-up period and in subsequent follow-ups this difference decreased and ceased to be of statistical relevance. The primary cause of deathbecame hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Four DSRS patients rebled due to duodenal ulcer, while eleven ES patients had recurrent bleeding from esophago-gastric sources (seven from varices, three from hypertensive gastropathy, one from esophageal ulcerations) and two from unknown sources. Nine DSRS and 2 ES patients developed a chronic encephalopathy; 13 DSRS and 5 ES patients suffered at least one episode of acute encephalopathy. Five ES patients had esophageal stenoses, which were successfully dilated. CONCLUSION: In a subgroup of patients with good liver function, DSRS with a correct portal-azygos disconnection more effectively prevents variceal rebleeding than ES. However, this positive effect did not influence the long-term survival because other factors (e.g. HCC) were more important in deciding the fate of the cirrhotic patients with portal hypertension. | Roberto Santambrogio Enrico Opocher Mara Costa Savino Bruno Andrea Pisani Ceretti Gian Paolo Spina | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,39: | 4 |
| 6 | Radiomics in colorectal cancer patients显示文摘The main therapeutic options for colorectal cancer are surgical resection and adjuvant chemotherapy in non-metastatic disease.However,the evaluation of the overall adjuvant chemotherapy benefit in patients with a high risk of recurrence is challenging.Radiological images can represent a source of data that can be analyzed by using automated computer-based techniques,working on numerical information coded within Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine files:This image numerical analysis has been named“radiomics”.Radiomics allows the extraction of quantitative features from radiological images,mainly invisible to the naked eye,that can be further analyzed by artificial intelligence algorithms.Radiomics is expanding in oncology to either understand tumor biology or for the development of imaging biomarkers for diagnosis,staging,and prognosis,prediction of treatment response and diseases monitoring and surveillance.Several efforts have been made to develop radiomics signatures for colorectal cancer patient using computed tomography(CT)images with different aims:The preoperative prediction of lymph node metastasis,detecting BRAF and RAS gene mutations.Moreover,the use of delta-radiomics allows the analysis of variations of the radiomics parameters extracted from CT scans performed at different timepoints.Most published studies concerning radiomics and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)mainly focused on the response of advanced tumors that under-went neoadjuvant therapy.Nodes status is the main determinant of adjuvant chemotherapy.Therefore,several radiomics model based on MRI,especially on T2-weighted images and ADC maps,for the preoperative prediction of nodes metastasis in rectal cancer has been developed.Current studies mostly focused on the applications of radiomics in positron emission tomogra-phy/CT for the prediction of survival after curative surgical resection and assessment of response following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.Since colorectal liver metastases develop in about 25%of patients with colorectal carcinoma,the main diagnostic tasks of radiomics should be the detection of synchronous and metachronous lesions.Radiomics could be an additional tool in clinical setting,especially in identifying patients with high-risk disease.Nevertheless,radiomics has numerous shortcomings that make daily use extremely difficult.Further studies are needed to assess performance of radiomics in stratifying patients with high-risk disease. | Riccardo Inchingolo Cesare Maino Roberto Cannella Federica Vernuccio Francesco Cortese Michele Dezio Antonio Rosario Pisani Teresa Giandola Marco Gatti Valentina Giannini Davide Ippolito Riccardo Faletti | 2023 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2023,29,19: | 4 |
| 7 | Noninvasive molecular analysis of Helicobacter pylori : Is it time for tailored first-line therapy?显示文摘The main problem of Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection management is linked to antibiotic resistances. This phenomenon has grown in the last decade, inducing a dramatic decline in conventional regimen effectiveness. The causes of resistance are point mutations in bacterial DNA, which interfere with antibiotic mechanism of action, especially clarithromycin and levofloxacin. Therefore, international guidelines have recently discouraged their use in areas with a relevant resistance percentage, suggesting first-line schedules with expected high eradication rates, i.e., bismuth containing or non-bismuth quadruple therapies. These regimens require the daily assumption of a large number of tablets. Consequently, a complete adherence is expected only in subjects who may be motivated by the presence of major disorders. However, an incomplete adherence to antibiotic therapies may lead to resistance onset, since sub-inhibitory concentrations could stimulate the selection of resistant mutants. Of note, a recent meta-analysis suggests that susceptibility tests may be more useful for the choice of first than second-line or rescue treatment. Additionally, susceptibility guided therapy has been demonstrated to be highly effective and superior to empiric treatments by both meta-analyses and recent clinical studies. Conventional susceptibility test is represented by culture and antibiogram. However, the method is not available everywhere mainly for methodology-related factors and fails to detect hetero-resistances. Polymerase chain reaction(PCR)-based, culture-free techniques on gastric biopsy samples are accurate in finding even minimal traces of genotypic resistant strains and hetero-resistant status by the identification of specific point mutations. The need for an invasive endoscopic procedure has been the most important limit to their spread. A further step has, moreover, been the detection of point mutations in bacterial DNA fecal samples. Few studies on clarithromycin susceptibility have shown an overall high sensitivity and specificity when compared with culture or PCR on gastric biopsies. On these bases, two commercial tests are now available although they have shown some controversial findings. A novel PCR method showed a full concordance between tissue and stool results in a preliminary experience. In conclusion, despite poor validation, there is increasing evidence of a potential availability of noninvasive investigations able to detect H. pylori resistances to antibiotics. These kinds of analysis are currently at a very early phase of development and caution should be paid about their clinical application. Only further studies aimed to evaluate their sensitivity and specificity will afford novel data for solid considerations. Nevertheless, noninvasive molecular tests may improve patient compliance, time/cost of infection management and therapeutic outcome. Moreover, the potential risk of a future increase of resistance to quadruple regimens as a consequence of their use on large scale and incomplete patient adherence could be avoided. | Enzo Ierardi Floriana Giorgio Andrea Iannone Giuseppe Losurdo Mariabeatrice Principi Michele Barone Antonio Pisani Alfredo Di Leo | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,14: | 3 |

| 9 | phytoestrogens/insoluble fibers and colonic estrogen receptor β: randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study显示文摘AIM:To assess the safety and effect of the supplementation of a patented blend of dietary phytoestrogens and insoluble fibers on estrogen receptor (ER)-β and biological parameters in sporadic colonic adenomas. METHODS:A randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial was performed. Patients scheduled to undergo surveillance colonoscopy for previous sporadic colonic adenomas were identified, and 60 eligible patients were randomized to placebo or active dietary intervention (ADI) twice a day, for 60 d before surveillance colonoscopy. ADI was a mixture of 175 mg milk thistle extract, 20 mg secoisolariciresinol and 750 mg oat fiber extract. ER-β and ER-α expression, apoptosis and proliferation (Ki-67 LI) were assessed in colon samples. RESULTS:No adverse event related to ADI was recorded. ADI administration showed a significant increases in ER-β protein (0.822 ± 0.08 vs 0.768 ± 0.10, P = 0.04) and a general trend to an increase in ER-β LI (39.222 ± 2.69vs 37.708 ± 5.31,P = 0.06), ER-β/ER-α LI ratio (6.564 ± 10.04 vs 2.437 ± 1.53, P = 0.06), terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (35.592 ± 14.97 vs 31.541 ± 11.54, P = 0.07) and Ki-67 (53.923 ± 20.91 vs 44.833 ± 10.38, P = 0.07) approximating statistical significance. A significant increase of ER-β protein (0.805 ± 0.13 vs 0.773 ± 0.13,P = 0.04), mRNA (2.278 ± 1.19vs 1.105 ± 1.07, P < 0.02) and LI (47.533 ± 15.47 vs 34.875 ± 16.67,P < 0.05) and a decrease of ER-α protein (0.423 ± 0.06vs 0.532 ± 0.11,P < 0.02) as well as a trend to increase of ER-β/ER-α protein in ADI vs placebo group were observed in patients without polyps (1.734 ± 0.20 vs 1.571 ± 0.42, P = 0.07). CONCLUSION:The role of ER-β on the control of apoptosis, and its amenability to dietary intervention, are supported in our study. | Mariabeatrice Principi Alfredo Di Leo Maria Pricci Maria Principia Scavo Raffaella Guido Sabina Tanzi Domenico Piscitelli Antonio Pisani Enzo Ierardi Maria Cristina Comelli Michele Barone | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,27: | 3 |
| 10 | Hepatitis C and double-hit B cell lymphoma successfully treated by antiviral therapy显示文摘B cells lymphoma is one of the most challenging extrahepatic manifestations of hepatitis C virus(HCV). Recently, a new kind of B-cell lymphoma, named doublehit B(DHL), was characterized with an aggressive clinical course whereas a potential association with HCV was not investigated. The new antiviral direct agents(DAAs) against HCV are effective and curative in the majority of HCV infections. We report the first case, to our knowledge, of DHL and HCV-infection successfully treated by new DAAs. According to our experience, a DHL must be suspected in case of HCV-related lymphoma, and an early diagnosis could direct towards a different hematological management because a worse prognosis might be expected. A possible effect of DAAs on DHL regression should be investigated, but eradicating HCV would avoid life-threatening reactivation of viral hepatitis during pharmacological immunosuppression in oncohaematological diseases. | Giovanni Galati Lorenzo Rampa Umberto Vespasiani-Gentilucci Mirella Marino Francesco Pisani Carlo Cota Alessandro Guidi Antonio Picardi | 2016 | World Journal of Hepatology2016,8,29: | 2 |
