Abstract Background/Aims: Old age is a risk factor of suboptimal bowel preparation. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy mosapride citrate with split dose polyethylene glycol (PEG) plus ascorbic acid for preparation in elderly patients (aged ≥65 years) before they underwent colonoscopy. Materials and methods: prospective investigator-blinded randomized was conducted from November 2017 October 2018. The were randomly divided into 2 groups, group (mosapride split-dose PEG acid) or...
Cellular senescence is induced in response to cellular stressors such as increased levels of reactive oxygen species. The chronic accumulation senescent cells currently recognized a contributor the pathologic processes diverse degenerative diseases. Vitiligo characterized by disappearance melanocytes driven stress within and autoimmune processes. In this study, we examined p16INK4A positivity lesional perilesional skin 54 non-segmental vitiligo patients explore vitiligo. There were more...
Palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) is initiated from the acrosyringium. However, it unclear whether PPP should be considered a distinct entity or classified into spectrum of pustular psoriasis, also known as palmoplantar psoriasis (PPPP).We evaluated differences in immunohistochemical staining patients with to determine they can two groups based on psoriatic properties acrosyringeal properties.Nineteen punch biopsy specimens diagnosed were collected. Antibodies chosen for identifying α-3-nicotine...
Purpose Laparoscopic surgery for left-sided colon cancer is one of the most frequent procedures performed in laparoscopic colorectal surgery. In this study, we analyzed clinical and long-term oncological outcomes patients who underwent conventional (CLS) hand-assisted (HALS). Methods A total 172 CLS 72 HALS from July 2001 to December 2011 were included study. The collected data outcomes. We overall survival disease-free by tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) stage. Results mean age was 64 years,...
Purpose:The aim of the present study was to analyze peri-and post-operative and oncologic outcomes for ascending colon cancer after complete mesocolic excision (CME) with central vessel ligation (CVL). Materials methods:The data 156 patients who underwent CME CVL between January 2000 December 2011 were retrieved from a prospective database. Results:The median follow-up time 63.6 months.The mean operation 191.6 min.The blood loss 85.6 ml.The length hospital stay 13.9 days.The number total...
Purpose: Interleukin-6 (IL-6) can stimulate a variety of tumors including prostatic carcinoma. Research has recently shown that IL-6 may act to the progression cancer. is elevated in sera patients with metastatic cancer and it been be candidate marker disease activity. To date, little work performed characterize nature granulocyte macrophage colonystimulating factor (GM-CSF) expression IL-6. The aim this study evaluate effects GM-CSF on PC-3 cells. Materials Methods: bone-derived cell line...
Acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM) is the most common subtype of cutaneous among Asians; punch biopsy widely performed for its diagnosis. However, pathologic parameters evaluated via may not be sufficient predicting disease prognosis compared to excisional biopsy. We investigated whether changes in Breslow thickness (BT) between initial results and final pathology reports can affect ALM. Pathologic were recorded from specimens acquired through wide excision. Patients classified into two groups...
