| 1 | Endoscopic management of difficult common bile duct stones显示文摘Endoscopy is widely accepted as the first treatment option in the management of bile duct stones.In this review we focus on the alternative endoscopic modalities for the management of difficult common bile duct stones.Most biliary stones can be removed with an extraction balloon,extraction basket or mechanical lithotripsy after endoscopic sphincterotomy.Endoscopic papillary balloon dilation with or without endoscopic sphincterotomy or mechanical lithotripsy has been shown to be effective for management of difficult to remove bile duct stones in selected patients.Ductal clearance can be safely achieved with peroral cholangioscopy guided laser or electrohydraulic lithotripsy in most cases where other endoscopic treatment modalities have failed.Biliary stenting may be an alternative treatment option for frail and elderly patients or those with serious co morbidities. | Guru Trikudanathan Udayakumar Navaneethan Mansour A Parsi | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,2: | 24 |
| 2 | Early precut sphincterotomy and the risk of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography related complications: An updated meta-analysis显示文摘AIM: To study the cannulation and complication rates of early pre-cut sphincterotomy vs persistent attempts at cannulation by standard approach.METHODS: Systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library for relevant studies published up to February 2013. The main outcome measurements were cannulation rates and postendoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) complications. A comprehensive systematic search of the Cochrane library, PubMed, Google scholar, Scopus, National Institutes of Health, meta-register of controlled trials and published proceedings from major Gastroenterology journals and meetings until February 2013 was conducted using keywords. All Prospective randomized controlled trials(RCT) studies whichmet our inclusion criteria were included in the analysis. Prospective non-randomized studies and retrospective studies were excluded from our meta-analysis. The main outcomes of interest were post-ERCP pancreatitis, overall complication rates including cholangitis, ERCPrelated bleeding, perforation and cannulation success rates. RESULTS: Seven RCTs with a total of 1039 patients were included in the meta-analysis based on selection criteria. The overall cannulation rate was 90% in the pre-cut sphincterotomy vs 86.3% in the persistent attempts group(OR = 1.98; 95%CI: 0.70-5.65). The risk of post-ERCP pancreatitis(PEP) was not different between the two groups(3.9% in the pre-cut sphincterotomy vs 6.1% in the persistent attempts group, OR = 0.58, 95%CI: 0.32-1.05). Similarly, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups for overall complication rate including PEP, cholangitis, bleeding, and perforation(6.2% vs 6.9%, OR = 0.85, 95%CI: 0.51-1.41). CONCLUSION: This meta-analysis suggests that precut sphincterotomy and persistent attempts at cannulation are comparable in terms of overall complication rates. Early pre-cut implementation does not increase PEP complications. | Udayakumar Navaneethan Rajesh Konjeti Preethi GK Venkatesh Madhusudhan R Sanaka Mansour A Parsi | 2014 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2014,6,5: | 12 |
| 3 | Clostridium difficile infection and inflammatory bowel disease:Understanding the evolving relationship显示文摘Clostridium difficile(C.difficile)infection(CDI)is the leading identifiable cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea.While there is an alarming trend of increasing incidence and severity of CDI in the United States and Europe,superimposed CDI in patients with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)has drawn considerable attention in the gastrointestinal community.The majority of IBD patients appear to contract CDI as outpatients.C.difficile affects disease course of IBD in several ways,including triggering disease flares,sustaining activity,and in some cases,acting as an'innocent'bystander.Despite its wide spectrum of presentations,CDI has been reported to be associated with a longer duration of hospitalization and a higher mortality in IBD patients.IBD patients with restorative proctocolectomy or with diverting ileostomy are not immune to CDI of the small bowel or ileal pouch.Whether immunomodulator or corticosteroid therapy for IBD should be continued in patients with superimposed CDI is controversial.It appears that more adverse outcomes was observed among patients treated by a combination of immunomodulators and antibiotics than those treated by antibiotics alone.The use of biologic agents does not appear to increase the risk of acquisition of CDI.For CDI in the setting of underlying IBD,vancomycin appears to be more efficacious than metronidazole.Randomized controlled trials are required to clearly define the appropriate management for CDI in patients with IBD. | Udayakumar Navaneethan Preethi GK Venkatesh Bo Shen | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,39: | 12 |
| 4 | Factors predicting adverse short-term outcomes in patients with acute cholangitis undergoing ERCP: A single center experience显示文摘AIM: To identify potential factors that can predict adverse short-term outcomes in patients with acute cholangitis undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP). METHODS: Retrospective analysis of consecutive patients admitted to our center for acute cholangitis and underwent ERCP from 2001 to 2012. Involvement of two or more organ systems was termed as organ failure(OF). Cardiovascular failure was defined based on a systolic blood pressure of < 90 mmHg despite fluid replacement and/or requiring vasopressor treatment; respiratory failure if the Pa02 /Fi02 ratio was < 300 mmHg and/or required mechanical ventilation; coagulopathy if the platelet count was < 80; and renal insufficiency if serum creatinine was > 1.9 mg/dL. Variables associated with short term adverse clinical outcomes defined as persistent OF and/or 30-d mortality was determined. RESULTS: A total of 172 patients(median age 62 years, 56.4% female) were included. The median door to ERCP time was 17 h. Bile duct stones were the most common etiology(n = 67, 39.2%). In multivariate analysis, factors that were independently associated with persistent OF and/or 30-d mortality included American Society of Anesthesiology(ASA) physical classification score > 3(OR = 7.70; 95%CI: 2.73-24.40), presence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome(OR = 3.67; 95%CI: 1.34-10.3) and door to ERCP time greater than 72 h(OR = 3.36; 95%CI: 1.12-10.20). Door to ERCP time greater than 72 h was also associated with 70% increase in the mean length of stay(P < 0.001). Every one point increase in the ASA physical classification and every 1 mg/dL increase in the preERCP bilirubin level was associated with a 34% and 2% increase in the mean length of hospital stay, respectively. Transfer status did not impact clinical outcomes. CONCLUSION: Higher ASA physical classification and delays in ERCP are associated with adverse clinical outcomes and prolonged length of hospital stay in patients with acute cholangitis undergoing ERCP. | Udayakumar Navaneethan Norma G Gutierrez Ramprasad Jegadeesan Preethi GK Venkatesh Madhusudhan R Sanaka John J Vargo Mansour A Parsi | 2014 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2014,6,3: | 7 |
| 5 | Comparative study of endoscopy vs.transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt in the management of gastric variceal bleeding显示文摘Background and Aim:Gastric varices are associated with high mortality.There have been conflicting reports on whether endoscopic treatment with cyanoacrylate or the placement of a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS)is more effective in the treatment of gastric varices.We compared the outcomes of patients treated with cyanoacrylate glue or TIPS for the management of acute gastric variceal bleeding.Methods:The study was designed as a retrospective cohort analysis of patients undergoing either TIPS or endoscopic treatment with cyanoacrylate for acute gastric variceal bleeding at our institution from 2001 to 2011.Primary compared to studied between the two treatment modalities were the short-term treatment outcomes,including re-bleeding within 30 days,length of hospital stay and in-hospital mortality.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed to assess factors associated with in-hospital mortality.Results:A total of 169 patients were included in the analysis.The TIPS arm contained 140 patients and the cyanoacrylate arm contained 29 patients.There was no evidence to suggest any significant differences in demographics or disease severity.There were no differences between the TIPS arm and the cyanoacrylate armtwo groups in treatment outcomes including re-bleeding within 30 days(17.4%vs.17.2%;P=0.98),median length of stay in the hospital(4.5 days vs.6.0 days;P紏0.35)or in-hospital mortality(9.0%vs.11.1%;P=0.74).In-hospital mortality was evaluated for 149 patients and lower albumin(P=0.015),higher MELD score(P<0.001),higher CTP score(P=0.005)and bleeding(P=0.008)were all significantly associated with in-hospital death.Conclusion:These findings suggest that both treatments are equally effective.Cyanoacrylate offers a safe,effective alternative to TIPS for gastric varices,and physician may choose the best therapy for each patient,factoring in the availability of TIPS or cyanoacrylate,the individual patient’s presentation,and cost. | Gursimran Singh Kochhar Udayakumar Navaneethan Jason Hartman Jose Mari Parungao Rocio Lopez Ranjan Gupta Baljendra Kapoor Paresh Mehta Madhu Sanaka | 2015 | Gastroenterology Report2015,3,1: | 2 |

| 9 | Short-term impacts of biochar and manure application on soil labile carbon fractions,enzyme activity,and microbial community structure显示文摘Biochar is known to ameliorate soil fertility and increase crop yield;however,information regarding its effects on soil chemical and biological properties remains limited.The experiment was conducted to study the short-term impacts of dif-ferent types of biochar on soil C fractions,enzyme activities,and microbial community structure at depositional and eroded landscape positions at different sampling times[before planting,after planting,and after harvesting of soybean(Glycine max L.)].Three biochar materials,produced from C-optimized gasification of corn(maize,Zea mays L.)stover(CS),pon-derosa pine(Pinus ponderosa Lawson and C.Lawson)wood residue(PW),and switchgrass(Panicum virgatum L.)(SG),and dairy manure(DM)and mixture of dairy manure and pinewood biochar(DMP),were applied at a rate of 10 Mg ha^(−1) to depositional and eroded landscape positions.Data showed that the application of DMP and sole application of DM treat-ments significantly increased the labile C fractions at the depositional and eroded landscapes.The addition of DM and DMP increased the activities ofβ-glucosidase and urease enzymes,and those are involved in C and nitrogen cycling at depositional and eroded landscape positions.There were no significant differences between different biochar materials.However,there was an increase in soil microbial community structure in the DM and DMP treatments at both the landscape positions.In conclusion,our study revealed that DMP and sole application of DM influenced the soil labile C pool,enzyme activities,and microbial community structure at both the landscape positions for different sampling times. | Saroop Sandhu Udayakumar Sekaran Ekrem Ozlu Nigel O.Hoilett Sandeep Kumar | 2019 | Biochar2019,1,3: | 2 |
| 10 | Diagnosis and management of primary sclerosing cholangitis-perspectives from a therapeutic endoscopist显示文摘Primary sclerosing cholangitis(PSC) is a chronic,cholestatic liver condition characterized by inflammation,fibrosis,and destruction of the intra-and extrahepatic bile ducts.The therapeutic endoscopist plays a key role in the diagnosis and management of PSC.In patients presenting with a cholestatic profile,endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) is warranted for a definite diagnosis of PSC.Dominant strictures of the bile duct occur in 36%-57% of PSC patients.Endoscopic balloon dilatation with or without stenting have been employed in the management of dominant strictures.In addition,PSC patients are at increased risk of developing cholangiocarcinoma with a 20% lifetime risk.Brush cytology obtained during ERCP and use of fluorescence in situ hybridization forms the initial diagnostic step in the investigation of patients with dominant biliary strictures.Our review aims to summarize the current evidence supporting the role of a therapeutic endoscopist in the management of PSC patients. | Kunjam Modha Udayakumar Navaneethan | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015,7,5: | 2 |
| 11 | Synthesis and antimycobacterial screening of new N-(4-(5-aryl-3-(5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)phenyl)-4-amide derivatives显示文摘This article demonstrates the synthesis, characterization and the study of in vitro antitubercular activities of twenty four new N-(4-(5-aryl-3-(5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)phenyl)-4-amide derivatives(8a–x). The antitubercular activity of the compounds against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv(MTB) revealed that 2-chloro-N-(4-(5-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)phenyl)benzamide(8n) is the most promising lead molecule with a MIC of1.56 mg/m L, while the corresponding unsubstituted benzamide derivative(8o) is the next most active molecule with a MIC of 3.13 mg/m L. Interestingly, the pyrazole intermediate 5b containing chlorophenyl and N-acylcarbohydrazide substituents also showed significant activity(MIC = 3.13 mg/m L). Further, the active molecules did not show toxicity against a normal NIH 3T3 cell line, signifying their suitability for further drug development. | Nagabhushana Nayak Jurupula Ramprasad Udayakumar Dalimba Perumal Yogeeswari Dharmarajan Sriram | 2016 | Chinese Chemical Letters2016,27,3: | 2 |
