| 1 | Diagnosis and management of insulinoma显示文摘Insulinomas,the most common cause of hypoglycemia related to endogenous hyperinsulinism,occur in 1-4 people per million of the general population.Common autonomic symptoms of insulinoma include diaphroresis,tremor,and palpitations,whereas neuroglycopenenic symptoms include confusion,behavioural changes,personality changes,visual disturbances,seizure,and coma.Diagnosis of suspected cases is based on standard endocrine tests,especially the prolonged fasting test.Non-invasive imaging procedures,such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging,are used when a diagnosis of insulinoma has been made to localize the source of pathological insulin secretion.Invasive modalities,such as endoscopic ultrasonography and arterial stimulation venous sampling,are highly accurate in the preoperative localization of insulinomas and have frequently been shown to be superior to noninvasive localization techniques.The range of techniques available for the localization of insulinomas means thatblind resection can be avoided.Intraoperative manual palpation of the pancreas by an experienced surgeon and intraoperative ultrasonography are both sensitive methods with which to finalize the location of insulinomas.A high proportion of patients with insulinomas can be cured with surgery.In patients with malignant insulinomas,an aggressive medical approach,including extended pancreatic resection,liver resection,liver transplantation,chemoembolization,or radiofrequency ablation,is recommended to improve both survival and quality of life.In patients with unresectable or uncontrollable insulinomas,such as malignant insulinoma of the pancreas,several techniques should be considered,including administration of ocreotide and/or continuous glucose monitoring,to prevent hypoglycemic episodes and to improve quality of life. | Takehiro Okabayashi Yasuo Shima Tatsuaki Sumiyoshi Akihito Kozuki Satoshi Ito Yasuhiro Ogawa Michiya Kobayashi Kazuhiro Hanazaki | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,6: | 78 |
| 2 | New methods for the management of gastric varices显示文摘Bleeding from gastric varices has been successfully treated by endoscopic modalities. Once the bleeding from the gastric varices is stabilized, endoscopic treatment and/or interventional radiology should be performed to eradicate varices completely. Partial splenic artery embolization is a supplemental treatment to prolong the obliteration of the veins feeding and/or draining the varices. The overall incidence of bleeding from gastric varices is lower than that from esophageal varices. No studies to date have defi nitively characterized the causal factors behind bleeding from gastric varices. The initial episodes of bleeding from esophageal varices or gastric varices without prior treatment may be at least partly triggered by a violation of the mucosal barrier overlying varices. This is especially likely in the case of varices of the fundus. In view of the high rate of hemostasis achieved among bleeding gastric varices, treatment should be administered in selective cases. Among untreated cases, steps to prevent gastric mucosal injury confer very important protection against gastric variceal bleeding. | Hiroshi Yoshida Yasuhiro Mamada Nobuhiko Taniai Takashi Tajiri | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,37: | 31 |

| 4 | New methods for the management of esophageal varices显示文摘Bleeding from esophageal varices (EVs) is a catastrophic complication of chronic liver disease. Many years ago, surgical procedures such as esophageal transection or distal splenorenal shunting were the only treatments for EVs. In the 1970s, interventional radiology procedures such as transportal obliteration, left gastric artery embolization, and partial splenic artery embolization were introduced, improving the survival of patients with bleeding EVs. In the 1980s, endoscopic treatment, endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (EIS), and endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL), further contributed to improved survival. We combined IVR with endoscopic treatment or EIS with EVL. Most patients with EVs treated endoscopically required follow- up treatment for recurrent varices. Proper management of recurrent EVs can significantly improve patients’ quality of life. Recently, we have performed EVL at 2-mo (bimonthly) intervals for the management of EVs. Longer intervals between treatment sessions resulted in a higher rate of total eradication and lower rates of recurrence and additional treatment. | Hiroshi Yoshida Yasuhiro Mamada Nobuhiko Taniai Takashi Tajiri | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,11: | 30 |

| 7 | Genetic and epigenetic aspects of initiation and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) is a primary cancer of the liver that is predominant in developing countries and is responsible for nearly 600000 deaths each year worldwide. Similar to many other tumors, the development of HCC must be understood as a multistep process involving the accumulation of genetic and epigenetic alterations in regulatory genes, leading to the activation of oncogenes and the inactivation or loss of tumor suppressor genes. Extensive research over the past decade has identified a number of molecular biomarkers, including aberrant expression of HCCrelated genes and microRNAs. The challenge facing HCC research and clinical care at this time is to address the heterogeneity and complexity of these genetic and epigenetic alterations and to use this information to direct rational diagnosis and treatment strategies. The multikinase inhibitor sorafenib was the first molecularly targeted drug for HCC to show some extent of survival benefits in patients with advanced tumors. Although the results obtained using sorafenib support the importance of molecular therapies in the treatment of HCC, there is still room for improvement. In addition,no molecular markers for drug sensitivity, recurrence and prognosis are currently clinically available. In this review, we provide an overview of recently published articles addressing HCC-related genes and microRNAs to update what is currently known regarding genetic and epigenetic aspects of the pathogenesis of HCC and propose novel promising candidates for use as diagnostic and therapeutic targets in HCC. | Mitsuro Kanda Hiroyuki Sugimoto Yasuhiro Kodera | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,37: | 22 |
| 8 | Recent advances in the molecular diagnostics of gastric cancer显示文摘Gastric cancer(GC) is the third most common cause of cancer-related death in the world,representing a major global health issue. Although the incidence of GC is declining,the outcomes for GC patients remain dismal because of the lack of effective biomarkers to detect early GC and predict both recurrence and chemosensitivity. Current tumor markers for GC,including serum carcinoembryonic antigen and carbohydrate antigen 19-9,are not ideal due to their relatively low sensitivity and specificity. Recent improvements in molecular techniques are better able to identify aberrant expression of GC-related molecules,including oncogenes,tumor suppressor genes,micro RNAs and long non-coding RNAs,and DNA methylation,as novel molecular markers,although the molecular pathogenesis of GC is complicated by tumor heterogeneity. Detection of genetic and epigenetic alterations from gastric tissue or blood samples has diagnostic value in the management of GC. There are high expectations for molecular markers that can be used as new screening tools for early detection of GC as well as for patient stratification towards personalized treatment of GC through prediction of prognosis and drug-sensitivity. In this review,the studies of potential molecular biomarkers for GC that have been reported in the publicly available literature between 2012 and 2015 are reviewed and summarized,and certain highlighted papers are examined. | Mitsuro Kanda Yasuhiro Kodera | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,34: | 20 |

| 10 | Analysis of ABC (D) stratification for screening patients with gastric cancer显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the value of ABC(D) stratification [combination of serum pepsinogen and Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) antibody]of patients with gastric cancer.METHODS:Ninety-five consecutive patients with gastric cancer were enrolled into the study.The serum pepsinogenⅠ(PGⅠ) /pepsinogenⅡ(PGⅡ) and H.pylori antibody levels were measured.Patients were classified into five groups of ABC(D) stratification according to their serological status.Endoscopic findings of atrophic gastritis and histological differentiation were also analyzed in relation to the ABC(D) stratification.RESULTS:The mean patient age was(67.9±8.9) years.Three patients(3.2%) were classified into group A,7 patients(7.4%) into group A',27 patients(28.4%) into group B,54 patients(56.8%) into group C,and 4patients(4.2%) into group D,respectively.There were only three cases in group A when the patients taking acid proton pump inhibitors and those who had undergone eradication therapy for H.pylori(group A') were excluded.These three cases had mucosal atrophy in the grey zone according to the diagnostic manual of ABC(D) stratification.Histologically,the mean age of the patients with well differentiated adenocarcinoma was significantly higher than that of the patients with poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma(P<0.05) .There were no differences in the pattern of atrophy in the endoscopies between the well differentiated and poorly differentiated groups.CONCLUSION:ABC(D) stratification is a good method for screening patients with gastric cancers.Endoscopy is needed for grey zone cases to check the extent of mucosal atrophy. | Tomohiro Kudo Satoru Kakizaki Naondo Sohara Yasuhiro Onozato Shinichi Okamura Yoshikatsu Inui Masatomo Mori | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,43: | 17 |
| 11 | A combination treatment of entecavir and early-phase corticosteroid in severe exacerbation of chronic hepatitis B显示文摘Of patients with severe exacerbation of chronic hepatitis B accompanied by jaundice and coagulopathy,20%-30%have a fatal outcome.In this report,we describe 2 cases of severe exacerbation of chronic hepatitis B with jaundice and coagulopathy who were successfully treated with a combination of entecavir and corticosteroid.In both cases,rapid reductions in serum hepatitis B virus(HBV)-DNA levels were observed,and corticosteroid was stopped after serum HBV-DNA levels became undetectable.Entecavir treatment was continued.Generally,entecavir treatment reduced serum HBV-DNA levels rapidly,although the improvement in liver function was delayed by a few weeks.During this time lag,liver cell injury continued and the disease progressed.Corticosteroid suppressed the excessive host immune response and was useful for stopping progressive deterioration.A combination of entecavir and early-phase corticosteroid may be a useful treatment in severe exacerbation of chronic hepatitis B. | Kazuyuki Matsumoto Yasuhiro Miyake Hirokazu Miyatake Masahiro Takahara Takayuki Imada Satoru Yagi Tatsuya Toyokawa Morihito Nakatsu Masaharu Ando Mamoru Hirohata | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,13: | 16 |
| 12 | Quality of ulcer healing in gastrointestinal tract:Its pathophysiology and clinical relevance显示文摘In this paper,we review the concept of quality of ulcer healing(QOUH) in the gastrointestinal tract and its role in the ulcer recurrence.In the past,peptic ulcer disease(PUD) has been a chronic disease with a cycle of repeated healing/remission and recurrence.The main etiological factor of PUD is Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori),which is also the cause of ulcer recurrence.However,H.pylori-negative ulcers are present in 12%-20% of patients;they also recur and are on occasion intractable.QOUH focuses on the fact that mucosal and submucosal structures within ulcer scars are incompletely regenerated.Within the scars of healed ulcers,regenerated tissue is immature and with distorted architecture,suggesting poor QOUH.The abnormalities in mucosal regeneration can be the basis for ulcer recurrence.Our studies have shown that persistence of macrophages in the regenerated area plays a key role in ulcer recurrence.Our studies in a rat model of ulcer recurrence have indicated that proinflammatory cytokines trigger activation of macrophages,which in turn produce increased amounts of cytokines and chemokines,which attract neutrophils to the regenerated area.Neutrophils release proteolytic enzymes that destroy the tissue,resulting in ulcer recurrence.Another important factor in poor QOUH can be deficiency of endogenous prostaglandins and a deficiency and/or an imbalance of endogenous growth factors.Topically active mucosal protective and antiulcer drugs promote high QOUH and reduce inflammatory cell infiltration in the ulcer scar.In addition to PUD,the concept of QOUH is likely applicable to inflammatory bowel diseases including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. | Tetsuo Arakawa Toshio Watanabe Tetsuya Tanigawa Kazunari Tominaga Yasuhiro Fujiwara Kenichi Morimoto | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,35: | 16 |

| 14 | Can endoscopic submucosal dissection be safely performed in a smaller specialized clinic?显示文摘AIM:To investigate whether endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) can be safely performed at small clinics,such as the Shirakawa Clinic.METHODS:One thousand forty-seven ESDs to treat gastrointestinal tumors were performed at the Shirakawa Clinic from April 2006 to March 2011.The efficacy,technical feasibility and associated complications of the procedures were assessed.The ESD procedures were performed by five endoscopists.Sedation was induced with propofol for esophagogastorduodenal ESD.RESULTS:One thousand forty-seven ESDs were performed to treat 64 patients with esophageal cancer(E),850 patients with gastric tumors(G:764 patients with cancer,82 patients with adenomas and four others),four patients with duodenal cancer(D) and 129 patients with colorectal tumors(C:94 patients with cancer,21 patients with adenomas and 14 others).The en bloc resection rate was 94.3%(E:96.9%,G:95.8%,D:100%,C:79.8%).The median operation time was 46 min(range:4-360 min) and the mean size of the resected specimens was 18 mm(range:2-150 mm).No mortal complications were observed in association with the ESD procedures.Perforation occurred in 12 cases(1.1%,E:1 case,G:9 cases,D:1 case,C:1 case) and postoperative bleeding occurred in 53 cases(5.1%,G:51 cases,D:1 case,C:1 case);however,no case required either emergency surgery or blood transfusion.All of the perforations and postperative bleedings were resolved by endoscopic clipping or hemostasis.The other problematic complication observed was pneumonia,which was treated with conservative therapy.CONCLUSION:ESD can be safely performed in a clinic with established therapeutic methods and medical services to address potential complications. | Naondo Sohara Satoshi Hagiwara Riki Arai Haruhisa Iizuka Yasuhiro Onozato Satoru Kakizaki | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,4: | 15 |
| 15 | Non-invasive determination of hepatic steatosis by acoustic structure quantification from ultrasound echo amplitude显示文摘AIM:To use leptin-deficient(ob/ob) mice with demonstrated differences in steatosis levels to test a new diagnostic method using the acoustical structure quantification(ASQ) mode and the associated analytical parameter,'focal disturbance ratio'(FD-ratio).METHODS:Nine ob/ob mice,at 5,8,and 12 wk of age(n = 3 in each age group),were used as models for hepatic steatosis.Echo signals obtained from ultrasonography in the mice were analyzed by ASQ,which uses a statistical analysis of echo amplitude to estimate inhomogeneity in the diagnostic region.FD-ratio,as calculated from this analysis,was the focus of the present study.FD-ratio and fat droplet areas and sizes were compared between age groups.RESULTS:No fibrosis or inflammation was observed in any of the groups.The fat droplet area significantly(P < 0.01) increased with age from 1.25% ± 0.28% at 5 wk to 31.07% ± 0.48% at 8 wk to 51.69% ± 3.19% at 12 wk.The median fat droplet size also significantly(P < 0.01) increased with age,from 1.33(0.55-10.52) m at 5 wk,2.82(0.61-44.13) m at 8 wk and 6.34(0.66-81.83) m at 12 wk.The mean FD-ratio was 0.42 ± 0.11 at 5 wk,0.11 ± 0.05 at 8 wk,and 0.03 ± 0.02 at 12 wk.The FD-ratio was significantly lower at 12 wk than at 5 wk and 8 wk(P < 0.01).A significant negative correlation was observed between the FD-ratio and either the fat droplet area(r =-0.7211,P = 0.0017) or fat droplet size(r =-0.9811,P = 0.0052).CONCLUSION:This tool for statistical analysis of signals from ultrasonography using the FD-ratio can be used to accurately quantify fat in vivo in an animal model of hepatic steatosis,and may serve as a quantitative biomarker of hepatic steatosis. | Hidekatsu Kuroda Keisuke Kakisaka Naohisa Kamiyama Takayoshi Oikawa Mio Onodera Kei Sawara Kanta Oikawa Ryujin Endo Yasuhiro Takikawa Kazuyuki Suzuki | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,29: | 15 |
| 16 | Molecular mechanisms of peritoneal dissemination in gastric cancer显示文摘Peritoneal dissemination represents a devastating form of gastric cancer(GC) progression with a dismal prognosis. There is no effective therapy for this condition. The 5-year survival rate of patients with peritoneal dissemination is 2%, even including patients with only microscopic free cancer cells without macroscopic peritoneal nodules. The mechanism of peritoneal dissemination of GC involves several steps: detachment of cancer cells from the primary tumor, survival in the free abdominal cavity, attachment to the distant peritoneum, invasion into the subperitoneal space and proliferation with angiogenesis. These steps are not mutually exclusive, and combinations of different molecular mechanisms can occur in each process of peritoneal dissemination. A comprehensive understanding of the molecular events involved in peritoneal dissemination is important and should be systematically pursued. It is crucial to identify novel strategies for the prevention of this condition and for identification of markers of prognosis and the development of molecular-targeted therapies. In this review, we provide an overview of recently published articles addressing the molecular mechanisms of peritoneal dissemination of GC to provide an update on what is currently known in this field and to propose novel promising candidates for use in diagnosis and as therapeutic targets. | Mitsuro Kanda Yasuhiro Kodera | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,30: | 15 |
| 17 | Comprehensive and innovative techniques for livertransplantation in rats: A surgical guide显示文摘AIM: To investigate our learning curves of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) in rats and the most important factor for successful surgery. METHODS: We describe the surgical procedures for our rat OLT model, and determined the operator learning curves. The various factors that contributed to successful surgery were determined. The most important surgical factors were evaluated between successful and unsuccessful surgeries.RESULTS: Learning curve data indicated that 50 cases were required for operator training to start a study. Operative time, blood loss, warm ischemic time, anhepatic phase, unstable systemic hemodynamic state, and body temperature after surgery significantly affected surgery success by univariate analysis, while the anhepatic phase was the most critical factor for success by multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION: OLT in rats is the only liver transplantation model that provides clinically relevant and reliable results. Shortened anhepatic phase is key to success in this model. | Tomohide Hori Justin H Nguyen Yasuhiro Ogura Toshiyuki Hata Shintaro Yagi Ann-Marie T Baine Norifumi Ohashi Christopher B Eckman Aimee R Herdt Hiroto Egawa Yasutsugu Takada Fumitaka Oike Seisuke Saka-moto Mureo Kasahara Kohei Ogawa Koichiro Hata Taku Iida Yukihide Yonekawa Lena Sibulesky Kagemasa Kuribayashi Takuma Kato Kanako Saito Mie Torii Naruhiko Sahara Naoko Kamo Tomoko Sahara Motohiko Yasutomi Shinji Uemoto | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,25: | 14 |
| 18 | Clinical utility of the platelet-lymphocyte ratio as a predictor of postoperative complications after radical gastrectomy for clinical T2-4 gastric cancer显示文摘AIM To identify simple and sensitive markers for postoperative complications after gastrectomy, the predictive values were compared among candidate preoperative factors. METHODS Three-hundred and twelve patients with previously untreated clinical T2-4 gastric cancer who underwent a D2 standard gastrectomy(distal gastrectomy or total gastrectomy) were included in the analysis.Correlations between 21 parameters that can be determined by preoperative routine blood tests and clinically relevant postoperative complications(grade Ⅱ or higher according to the Clavien-Dindo classification) were evaluated. The optimal cutoff values and clinical significance of the selected markers were further evaluated by subgroup analyses according to age, body mass index, operative procedure and clinical disease stage.RESULTS Sixty-six patients(21.1%) experienced grade Ⅱ or higher postoperative complications. The plateletlymphocyte ratio(PLR, total lymphocyte count/platelet count × 100) exhibited the highest area under the curve value(0.639) for predicting postoperative complications among the 21 parameters, and the optimal cutoff value was determined to be 0.71(sensitivity = 70%, specificity = 56%). In the univariate analysis, the odds ratio of a low PLR for the occurrence of postoperative complications was 2.94(95%CI: 1.66-5.35, P < 0.001), and a multivariate binomial logistic analysis involving other potential risk factors identified a low PLR as an independent risk factor for postoperative complications(OR = 3.32, 95%CI: 1.82-6.25, P < 0.001). In subgroups classified according to age, body mass index, operative procedure and clinical disease stage, the low PLR group exhibited an increased incidence of postoperative complications. CONCLUSION The preoperative PLR is a simple and useful predictor of complications after curative gastrectomy in patients with clinical T2-4 gastric cancer. | Kenichi Inaoka Mitsuro Kanda Hiroaki Uda Yuri Tanaka Chie Tanaka Daisuke Kobayashi Hideki Takami Naoki Iwata Masamichi Hayashi Yukiko Niwa Suguru Yamada Tsutomu Fujii Hiroyuki Sugimoto Kenta Murotani Michitaka Fujiwara Yasuhiro Kodera | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,14: | 13 |
| 19 | Development of osteomalacia in a post-liver transplant patient receiving adefovir dipivoxil显示文摘We report the case of a patient treated with living donor-related liver transplantation who suffered from osteomalacia during adefovir dipivoxil (ADV)-containing antiviral therapy for lamivudine-resistant hepatitis B virus infection. The patient had generalized bone pain,with severe hypophosphatemia after 20 mo of ADV therapy. Radiographic studies demonstrated the presence of osteomalacia. The peak plasma ADV level was 38 ng/mL after administration of ADV at 10mg/day. It was also found that ADV affected the metabolism of tacrolimus,a calcineurin-inhibitor,and caused an increase in the plasma levels of tacrolimus. The disability was reversed with the withdrawal of ADV and with mineral supplementation. ADV can cause an elevation of plasma tacrolimus levels,which may be associated with renal dysfunction. High levels of ADV and tacrolimus can cause nephrotoxicity and osteomalacia. This case highlights the importance of considering a diagnosis of osteomalacia in liver transplantation recipients treated with both ADV and tacrolimus. | Masami Minemura Yoshiharu Tokimitsu Kazuto Tajiri Yasuhiro Nakayama Kengo Kawai Hiroshi Kudo Katsuharu Hirano Yoshinari Atarashi Yutaka Yata Satoshi Yasumura Terumi Takahara Toshiro Sugiyama | 2010 | World Journal of Hepatology2010,2,12: | 13 |
| 20 | Visualizing the hepatic vascular architecture using superb microvascular imaging in patients with hepatitis C virus: A novel technique显示文摘AIM: To identify the hepatic vascular architecture of patients with hepatitis C virus(HCV) using superb microvascular imaging(SMI) and investigate the use of SMI in the evaluation of liver fibrosis.METHODS: SMI was performed in 100 HCV patients. SMI images were classified into five types according to the vascular pattern, and these patterns were compared with the fibrosis stage. Moreover, the images were analyzed to examine vascularity by integrating the number of SMI signals in the region of interest ROI [number of vascular trees(VT)]. The number of VT, fibrosis stage, serum parameters of liver function, and CD34 expression were investigated.RESULTS: There was a significant difference between SMI distribution pattern and fibrosis stage(P < 0.001). The mean VT values in each of the fibrosis stages were as follows: 26.69 ± 7.08 in F0, 27.72 ± 9.32 in F1, 36.74 ± 9.23 in F2, 37.36 ± 5.32 in F3, and 58.14 ± 14.08 in F4. The VT showed excellent diagnostic ability for F4 [area under the receiver operator characteristic(AUROC): 0.911]. The VT was significantly correlated with the CD34 labeling index(r = 0.617, P < 0.0001).CONCLUSION: SMI permitted the detailed delineation of the vascular architecture in chronic liver disease. SMI appears to be a reliable tool for noninvasively detecting significant fibrosis or cirrhosis in HCV patients. | Hidekatsu Kuroda Tamami Abe Keisuke Kakisaka Yudai Fujiwara Yuichi Yoshida Akio Miyasaka Kazuyuki Ishida Hideaki Ishida Tamotsu Sugai Yasuhiro Takikawa | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,26: | 12 |
