Collapsing the lumen with frequent gas aspiration maintains thick submucosal tissue and stabilizes endoscope controllability during endoscopic dissection (ESD) [1] [2]. We introduced placement of drainage tubes to drain fluid [3] [4]. Although we proved usefulness a Foley catheter as route from rectum, its cost was not cheap, at 2000 Japanese yen (JPY). hypothesized that an nasogastric tube looped tip in alpha shape ([Fig. 1]), 88 JPY, would instead work well catheter.
Background: Ustekinumab (UST) is an interleukin-12/interleukin-23 receptor antagonist approved for the treatment of Crohn’s disease (CD). Only limited real-life data on long-term outcomes CD patients treated with UST are available. This study assessed UST’s effectiveness and safety in a large population-based cohort moderate to severe patients. Methods: was multicenter, retrospective, observational that included both naïve biologic-experienced who achieved clinical remission or response...
Vedolizumab (VDZ) can be used to treat refractory ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). We assessed whether there are differences in treating UC vs CD with VDZ.Mayo score the Harvey-Bradshaw Index (HBI) scored clinical activity. Achievement maintenance of remission during follow-up, safety were primary endpoints.729 patients (475 254 CD), median follow-up 18 (IQR 6-36) months, enrolled. Clinical at 6th month treatment was achieved 488 (66.9%) (74.4% 62.9% UC, p<0.002) while, no...
For thousands of years humans have lived in symbiosis with Helicobacter pylori. This infection is acquired mainly during childhood and, despite it represents one the most common infections humans, only a minority infected people may develop health issues and life-threatening diseases. diagnosing pylori children we can use, at first, non-invasive diagnostic tests, if clinical pattern and/or history are suspicion. Then, invasive tests i.e. gastroscopy necessary to confirm infection. As...
Abstract Background High‐resolution Manometry (HRM) is the most sensitive and specific test available for clinical assessment of hiatal hernia (HH), a common condition defined as separation between Lower Esophageal Sphincter (LES) crural diaphragm (CD). While link HH Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) established, potential association with esophageal dysmotility, independently from GERD, uncertain. This study aimed to analyze if HH, or without can associate motility disorders. Methods...
Despite advancements in multidisciplinary care, oncologic outcomes of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) have not substantially improved: still, one-third patients affected by stage I and II can develop locoregional recurrences. Imaging plays a pivotal role preoperative staging OSCC, providing depth invasion (DOI) measurements. However, recurrences strong association with adverse histopathological factors included the system, any imaging features linked to them been lacking. In this...
Since liver fibrosis is one of the most accurate predictors prognosis in hepatopatic patients, its assessment and staging a major public health issue. Transient elastography (TE) (Fibroscan, Echosens, Paris, France) shear wave (SWE) represent gold standard techniques among non-invasive methods to assess fibrosis. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) increasingly used diagnose nature lesions often performed together with TE SWE. In this study we evaluated effect CEUS on stiffness measurements...
