ESGE suggests endoscopic therapy and/or extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) as the first-line for painful uncomplicated chronic pancreatitis (CP) with an obstructed main pancreatic duct (MPD) in head/body of pancreas. The clinical response should be evaluated at 6 - 8 weeks; if it appears unsatisfactory, patient's case discussed again a multidisciplinary team and surgical options considered.Weak recommendation, low quality evidence.ESGE suggests, selection patients initial or...
<h3>Abstract</h3> Fishing gear is constantly being improved to select certain sizes and species while excluding others. Experiments are conducted quantify the selectivity resulting data needs be analyzed using specialized statistical methods in many cases. Here, we present a new estimation tool for analyzing this type of data: an R package named selfisher. It can used both active passive gears, handle different trial designs. allows fitting models containing multiple fixed effects (e.g....
In 12 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism, 13 parathyroid tumors detected the use of sonography and confirmed by fine-needle aspiration biopsy were treated percutaneous injection absolute ethanol under ultrasonographic guidance. Indications for this procedure recurrence after previous subtotal surgery, high surgical risk, or refusal surgery. Significant volume reductions recorded larger glands; in smaller ones, structural changes observed as well. Clinical biochemical therapeutic...

The statements were elaborated by working groups experts searching analysing literature, then underwent a consensus process using modified Delphi procedure. recommendations regarding most appropriate use timing various imaging techniques endoscopic ultrasound, role circulating intracystic markers pathologic evaluation diagnosis neoplasms.
Although surgery remains the gold standard for treatment of symptomatic common bile duct stenosis associated with chronic pancreatitis, plastic and self-expandable open-mesh stents have been proposed as alternative treatments. These may dysfunction, however, mainly due to stent occlusion by clogging or hyperplasia inflammatory tissue. The aim this study was evaluate safety long-term results using partially covered metal in setting.A total 14 patients (12 men, 2 women; mean age 50 +/- 3...
Abstract Background Indocyanine green (ICG)-guided lymphadenectomy using near-infrared visualization (NIR) may increase nodal yield during gastrectomy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical benefit NIR on quality D2 laparoscopic distal Methods This single-arm, open-label, Simon’s two-stage, adaptive, phase 2 trial included patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma. Endoscopic peritumoral injection ICG performed 24 ± 6 h before surgery. Intraoperatively,...
Aliment Pharmacol Ther 31 , 658–665 Summary Background Long‐term follow‐up studies of achalasia after pneumatic dilation, mostly retrospective, have shown variable results. Aim To examine the outcome dilation using a prospective programme. Methods One or two dilations (first treatment) in 77 patients to achieve stable (>1 year) remission and followed up with yearly clinical manometric assessments. Endoscopy, pH monitoring barium swallow were also performed. Results A total 69 achieved for...
Inflammation and immunity are linked to intestinal adenoma (IA) colorectal cancer (CRC) development. The gut microbiota is associated with CRC risk. Epithelial barrier dysfunction can occur, possibly leading increased permeability in patients. We conducted a case-control study including 100 incident histologically confirmed cases, IA healthy subjects, matched cases by center, sex age. performed 16S rRNA gene analysis of blood applied conditional logistic regression. Further analyses were...

The most appropriate endo-therapeutic approach to biliary anastomotic strictures is yet be defined.To retrospectively report on the endo-therapy of duct-to-duct during 2013 in Italy.Data were collected from 16 Endoscopy Units at Italian Liver Transplantation Centers (BASALT study group).Complete and follow-up data are available for 181 patients: 101 treated with plastic multistenting, 26 fully covered self-expandable metal stenting 54 single stenting. Radiological success was achieved 145...
