Main Recommendations 1 ESGE suggests that high definition endoscopy, and dye or virtual chromoendoscopy, as well add-on devices, can be used in average risk patients to increase the endoscopist’s adenoma detection rate. However, their routine use must balanced against costs practical considerations. Weak recommendation, quality evidence. 2 recommends of systems individuals with Lynch syndrome. Strong 3 use, targeted biopsies, dye-based pancolonic chromoendoscopy for neoplasia surveillance...
Collecting the evidence about quality of colonoscopy screening for colorectal cancer (CRC) in order to serve as a tool programs, endoscopy units and endoscopists that perform colonoscopies. Defining establishing indicators minimum requirements based on available involved CRC programs should meet. Providing procedures may improve colonoscopy.
Objective Outside clinical trials, the effectiveness of chromoendoscopy (CE) for long-standing IBD surveillance is controversial. We aimed to assess CE neoplasia detection and characterisation, in real-life. Design From June 2012 2014, patients with were prospectively included a multicentre cohort study. Each colonic segment was evaluated white light followed by 0.4% indigo carmine CE. Specific lesions' features recorded. Optical diagnosis assessed. Dysplasia rate between expert non-expert...
The aim of this study was to assess whether the contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) can increase value in postoperative recurrence Crohn's disease (CD).60 patients with CD who had previously undergone ileocolic resection underwent prospectively both CEUS and colonoscopy within a 3-day period. sonographic examination included evaluation bowel wall thickness, transmural complications, colour Doppler grade US. In addition score established. capacity diagnose endoscopic recurrence, as well...
This manuscript represents an official Position Statement of the European Society Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) aiming to guide general gastroenterologists develop and maintain skills in optical diagnosis during endoscopy. In general, this requires additional training beyond core curriculum currently provided each country. context, ESGE have developed a for practice across Europe high quality training. 1: suggests that every endoscopist should achieved competence upper and/or lower...
BACKGROUND : The European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) has developed a core curriculum for high quality optical diagnosis training practice across Europe. development easy-to-measure competence standards can optimize clinical decision-making in endoscopy. This manuscript represents an official Position Statement the ESGE aiming to define simple, safe, and endoscopists artificial intelligence systems performing diminutive colorectal polyps (1 - 5 mm). METHODS A panel experts...
The RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway regulates certain cellular functions, including cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, and apoptosis. Dysregulation of this leads to the occurrence progression cancers mainly by somatic mutations. This study aimed assess if polymorphisms are associated with gastric cancer. A case-control 242 cancer patients controls was performed association 27 single nucleotide (SNPs) in genes Analyses under additive model (allele) showed four significantly SNPs: RAF1...
Our aim was to determine the impact of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on diagnosis and prognosis colorectal cancer (CRC).
The aim of this study was to assess the cost-effectiveness an intelligent endoscopy module for computer-assisted detection and characterization (CADe/CADx) compared with standard practice, from a Spanish National Health System perspective. A Markov model designed estimate total costs, life years gained (LYG), quality-adjusted (QALYs) over lifetime horizon annual cycles. hypothetical cohort 1,000 patients eligible colonoscopy (mean age 61.32 years) distributed between states according polyp...

Se emplea un enfoque cualitativo que incluye encuestas entrevistas con educadores, estudiantes líderes comunitarios diversas localidades. Los hallazgos revelan falta infraestructura adecuada, escasez recursos educativos limitada capacitación los docentes restringen una calidad estos campos. Además, se...
Inflammation is a key process in gastric carcinogenesis. Cytokines are mediators of inflammation and involved metastasis tumorigenicity. We previously assessed the role cytokine gene polymorphisms cancer risk Chile. In present study, we aimed to analyze whether these associated with overall survival (OS) (GC) patients.A total 153 individuals GC diagnosis were followed-up for at least 2 years. Hazard ratios (HR) estimated from Cox regression models using SNPs as predictor variables. The...
Gastric cancer (GC) is the third most common cause of death worldwide. Natural killer cells play an important role in immune defense against transformed cells. They express activating receptor NKG2D, whose ligands belong to MIC and ULBP/RAET family. Although it well established that these are generally expressed tumors, association between their expression tumor gastric mucosa clinical parameters prognosis GC remains be addressed. In present study, MICA MICB was analyzed, by flow cytometry,...
