| 1 | Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: An overview of current insights in pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment显示文摘Estimates of people suffering from overweight (one billion) and obesity (300 million) are increasing. The accumulation of triglycerides in the liver, in the absence of excess alcohol intake, has been described in the early sixties. It was not until 1980, however, that Ludwig et al named this condition nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Subsequently, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been used as a general name for conditions ranging from simple steatosis through steatohepatitis to end-stage liver disease (cirrhosis). Many studies have demonstrated the significant correlation with obesity and insulin resistance. Other studies have revealed a signifi- cant correlation between hepatic steatosis, cardiovascu- lar disease and increased intima-media thickness. WHO estimated that at least two million patients will develop cirrhosis due to hepatic steatosis in the years to come. Longitudinal cohort studies have demonstrated that those patients with cirrhosis have a similar risk to devel- op hepatocellular carcinoma as those with other causes of cirrhosis. Taken all together, NAFLD has become the third most important indication for liver transplantation. There- fore, training programmes in internal medicine, gastroen- terology and hepatology should stress the importance of diagnosing this entity and treat properly those at risk for developing complications of portal hypertension and con- comittant cardiovascular disease. This review will focus on the clinical characteristics, pathophysiology, imaging tech- niques and the readily available therapeutic options. | Tim CMA Schreuder Bart J Verwer Carin MJ van Nieuwkerk Chris JJ Mulder | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,16: | 35 |

| 3 | Gastroenterology in developing countries:Issues and advances显示文摘Developing countries shoulder a considerable burden of gastroenterological disease. Infectious diseases in particular cause enormous morbidity and mortality. Diseases which afflict both western and developing countries are often seen in more florid forms in poorer countries. Innovative techniques continuously improve and update gastroenterological practice. However, advances in diagnosis and treatment which are commonplace in the West, have yet to reach many developing countries. Clinical guidelines, based on these advances and collated in resource-rich environments,lose their relevance outside these settings. In this two-part review, we first highlight the global burden of gastroenterological disease in three major areas: diarrhoeal diseases, hepatitis B, and Helicobacter pylori . Recent progress in their management is explored, with consideration of future solutions. The second part of the review focuses on the delivery of clinical services in developing countries. Inadequate numbers of healthcare workers hamper efforts to combat gastroenterological disease. Reasons for this shortage are examined, along with possibilities for increased specialist training. Endoscopy services, the mainstay of gastroenterology in the West, are in their infancy in many developing countries. The challenges faced by those setting up a service are illustrated by the example of a Nigerian endoscopy unit. Finally, we highlight the limited scope of many clinical guidelines produced in western countries. Guidelines which take account of resource limitations in the form of 'cascades' are advocated in order to make these guidelines truly global. Recognition of the different working conditions facing practitioners worldwide is an important step towards narrowing the gap between gastroenterology in rich and poor countries. | Kate L Mandeville Justus Krabshuis Nimzing Gwamzhi Ladep Chris JJ Mulder Eamonn MM Quigley Shahid A Khan | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,23: | 8 |
| 4 | Double balloon endoscopy associated pancreatitis:A description of six cases显示文摘AIM:To perform a single-center analysis of all double balloon endoscopy (DBE) related cases of pancreatitis identified prospectively from a recorded DBE-complication database. METHODS:From November 2003 until January 2007, 603 DBE procedures were performed on 412 patients, with data on complications recorded in a database. The setting was a tertiary care center offering DBE. DBE was performed from the antegrade or retrograde route. Out-come measurements included age, gender, medication, indication, DBE-endoscope type, insertion depth, proce-dure duration, findings, interventions, post-procedural abdominal pain, and post-procedural hospitalization. RESULTS:This is the largest single-center study report-ing on post-DBE pancreatitis prospectively. Six patients (1.0%) developed post-DBE pancreatitis, all after antegrade DBE. There was no association with gender, duration of the procedure or type of endoscope. The mean age was 51.9 years (range 25-78). Four patients had severe pancreatitis. Of these, two had inflammatory signs in the body-tail region, one had pancreatitis in the tail region, and the total pancreas was involved in one. CONCLUSION:The incidence of post-DBE pancreatitis in our series is higher than previously reported. We found no relation with DBE-endoscope type. The inflammatory changes occurred in the body-tail region of the pancreas, suggesting that post-DBE pancreatitis is caused by repetitive mechanical strain on the pancreas. | Soeresh VA Jarbandhan Stijn JB van Weyenberg Willem M van der Veer Dimitri GN Heine Chris JJ Mulder Maarten AJM Jacobs | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,5: | 8 |
| 5 | Colonoscopic yield of colorectal neoplasia in daily clinical practice显示文摘AIM:To assess the prevalence and location of ad-vanced neoplasia in patients undergoing colonoscopy,and to compare the yield per indication.METHODS:In a multicenter colonoscopy survey (n = 18 hospitals) in the Amsterdam area (Northern Holland),data of all colonoscopies performed during a three month period in 2005 were analyzed. The location and the histological features of all colonic neoplasia were recorded. The prevalence and the distribution ofadvanced colorectal neoplasia and differences in yield between indication clusters were evaluated. Advanced neoplasm was defi ned as adenoma > 10 mm in size,with > 25% villous features or with high-grade dyspla-sia or cancer.RESULTS:A total of 4623 eligible patients underwent a total colonoscopy. The prevalence of advanced neo-plasia was 13%,with 281 (6%) adenocarcinomas and 342 (7%) advanced adenomas. Sixty-seven percent and 33% of advanced neoplasia were located in the distal and proximal colon,respectively. Of all patients with right-sided advanced neoplasia (n = 228),51% had a normal distal colon,whereas 27% had a syn-chronous distal adenoma. Ten percent of all colono-scopies were performed in asymptomatic patients,7% of whom had advanced neoplasia. In the respective procedure indication clusters,the prevalence of right-sided advanced neoplasia ranged from 11%-57%. CONCLUSION:One out of every 7-8 colonoscopies yielded an advanced colorectal neoplasm. Colonoscopy is warranted for the evaluation of both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. | Jochim S Terhaar sive Droste Mike E Craanen Rene WM van der Hulst Joep F Bartelsman Dick P Bezemer Kim R Cappendijk Gerrit A Meijer Linde M Morsink Pleun Snel Hans ARE Tuynman Roy LJ van Wanrooy Eric IC Wesdorp Chris JJ Mulder | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,9: | 6 |
| 6 | Efficacy of thioguanine treatment in inflammatory bowel disease: A systematic review显示文摘AIM To critically assess the available literature regarding the efficacy of thioguanine treatment in inflammatory bowel disease(IBD) patients, irrespective of the(hepato-) toxicity profile.METHODS A systematic literature search of the MEDLINE database using Pub Med was performed using the keywords 'thioguanine', '6-TG', 'thioguanine', 'inflammatory bowel disease', 'IBD', 'Crohn's disease', 'Ulcerative colitis' and 'effectiveness' in order to identify relevant articles published in English starting from 2000. Reference lists of the included articles were crosschecked for missing articles. Reviewed manuscripts concerning the effectiveness of thioguanine treatment in IBD were reviewed by the authors and the data were extracted. Data were subsequently analyzed with descriptive statistics. Due to the lack of standardized outcomes, a formal meta-analysis was not performed.RESULTS A total of 11 applicable studies were found that involved the effectiveness of thioguanine therapy in IBD. Eight studies were conducted in a prospectivemanner, in the remaining three studies, data was collected retrospectively. In total, 353 IBD-patients(225 patients with Crohn's disease, 119 with ulcerative colitis and nine with unclassified IBD) with prior azathioprine/mercaptopurine resistance and/or intolerance(n = 321) or de novo thioguanine administration(n = 32) were included for analysis, of which 228(65%) had clinical improvement on thioguanine therapy, based on standard IBD questionnaires, biochemical parameters or global physician assessments. Short-term results were based on 268 treatment years(median follow-up 9 mo, range 3-22 mo) with a median daily dose of 20 mg(range 10-80 mg). Discontinuation, mostly due to adverse events, was reported in 72 patients(20%). CONCLUSION The efficacy of thioguanine therapy in IBD patients intolerant to conventional thiopurine therapy is observed in 65%, with short term adverse events in 20% of patients. | Berrie Meijer Chris JJ Mulder Godefridus J Peters Adriaan A van Bodegraven Nanne KH de Boer | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,40: | 5 |
| 7 | On tolerability and safety of a maintenance treatment with 6-thioguanine in azathioprineor 6-mercaptopurine intolerant IBD patients显示文摘AIM: To determine the tolerability and safety profile of a low-dose maintenance therapy with 6-TG in azathioprine (AZA) or 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) intolerant inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients over a treatment period of at least 1 year.METHODS: Database analysis.RESULTS: Twenty out of ninety-five (21%) patients discontinued 6-TG (mean dose 24.6 mg; mean 6-TGN level 540 pmol/8×108 RBC) within 1 year. Reasons for discontinuation were GI complaints (31%), malaise (15%)and hepatotoxicity (15%). Hematological events occurred in three patients, one discontinued treatment. In the 6-TG-tolerant group, 9% (7/75) could be classified as hepatotoxicity. An abdominal ultrasound was performed in 54% of patients, one patient had splenomegaly.CONCLUSION: The majority of AZA or 6-MP-intolerant IBD patients (79%) is able to tolerate maintenance treatment with 6-TG (dosages between 0.3 and 0.4 mg/kg per d). 6-TG may still be considered as an escape maintenance immunosuppressant in this difficult to treat group of patients, taking into account potential toxicity and efficacy of other alternatives. The recently reported hepatotoxicity is worrisome and 6-TG should therefore be administered only in prospective trials. | Nanne KH de Boer Luc JJ Derijks Lennard PL Gilissen Daniel W Hommes Leopold GJB Engels Sybrand Y de Boer Gijsbertus den Hartog Piet M Hooymans Anja BU M(?)kelburg Barend D Westerveld Anton HJ Naber Chris JJ Mulder Dirk J de Jong | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,35: | 4 |
| 8 | Anal plugs and retrograde colonic irrigation are helpful in fecal incontinence or constipation显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the feasibility, clinical effect and predicting factors for favorable outcome of treatment with anal plugs in fecal incontinence and retrograde colonic irrigation (RCI) in patients with fecal incontinence or constipation. METHODS: Patients who received treatment with an anal plug or RCI between 1980 and 2005 were investigated with a questionnaire. RESULTS: Of the 201 patients (93 adults, 108 children), 101 (50/) responded. Adults: anal plugs (8), five stopped immediately, one stopped after 20 mo and two used it for 12-15 mo. RCI (40, 28 fecal incontinence, 12 constipation), 63/ are still using it (mean 8.5 years), 88/ was satisfied. Younger adults (< 40 years) were more satisfied with RCI (94 / vs 65/, P = 0.05). Children: anal plugs (7), 5 used it on demand for an average of 2.5 years with satisfactory results, one stopped immediately and one after 5 years. RCI (26 fecal incontinence, 22 constipation), 90/ are still using it (mean time 6.8 years) and felt satisfi ed. Children tend to be more satisfi ed (P = 0.001). Besides age, no predictive factors for success were found. There was no difference in the outcome between patients with fecal incontinence or constipation. CONCLUSION: RCI is more often applied than anal plugs and is helpful in patients with fecal incontinence or constipation, especially for younger patients. Anal plugs can be used incidentally for fecal incontinence, especially in children. | Marcel Cazemier Richelle JF Felt-Bersma Chris JJ Mulder | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,22: | 4 |
| 9 | Are faecal markers good indicators of mucosal healing in inflammatory bowel disease?显示文摘AIM: To review the published literature concerning the accuracy of faecal inflammatory markers for identifying mucosal healing. METHODS: Bibliographical searches were performed in MEDLINE electronic database up to February 2015,using the following terms: 'inflammatory bowel disease','Crohn′s disease','ulcerative colitis','faecal markers','calprotectin','lactoferrin','S100A12','endoscop*','mucosal healing','remission'. In addition,relevant references from these studies were also included. Data were extracted from the published papers including odds ratios with 95%CI,P values and correlation coefficients. Data were grouped together according to each faecal marker,Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis,and paediatric compared with adult study populations. Studies included in this review assessed mucosal inflammation by endoscopic and/or histological means and compared these findings to faecal marker concentrations in inflammatory bowel diseases(IBD) patient cohorts. Articles had to be published between 1990 and February 2015 and written in English. Papers excluded from the review were those where the faecal biomarker concentration was compared between patients with IBD and controls or other disease groups,those where serum biomarkers were used,those with a heterogeneous study population and those only assessing post-operative disease. RESULTS: The available studies show that faecal markers,such as calprotectin and lactoferrin,are promising non-invasive indicators of mucosal healing. However,due to wide variability in study design,especially with regard to the definition of mucosal healing and evaluation of marker cut offs,the available data do not yet indicate the optimal roles of these markers. Thirty-six studies published between 1990 and 2014 were included. Studies comprised variable numbers of study participants,considered CD(15-164 participants) or UC(12-152 participants) separately or as a combined group(11-252 participants). Eight reports included paediatric patients. Several indices were used to document mucosal inflammation,encompassing elevenendoscopic and eight histologic grading systems. The majority of the available reports focused on faecal calprotectin(33 studies),whilst others assessed faecal lactoferrin(13 studies) and one study assessed S100A12. Across all of the biomarkers,there is a wide range of correlation describing the association between faecal markers and endoscopic disease activity(r values ranging from 0.32 to 0.87,P values ranging from < 0.0001 to 0.7815). Correlation coefficients are described in almost all studies and are used more commonly than outcome measures such as sensitivity,specificity,PPV and/or NPV. Overall,the studies that have evaluated faecal calprotectin and/or faecal lactoferrin and their relationship with endoscopic disease activity show inconsistent results. CONCLUSION: Future studies should report the results of faecal inflammatory markers in the context of mucosal healing with clear validated cut offs. | Gudula JAM Boon Andrew S Day Chris J Mulder Richard B Gearry | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,40: | 4 |
| 10 | Coeliac disease in Dutch patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and vice versa显示文摘AIM: To define the association between Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and coeliac disease in Dutch patients. METHODS: A total of 104 consecutive patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis underwent coeliac serological tests (antigliadins, transglutaminase and endomysium antibodies) and HLA-DQ typing. Small intestinal biopsy was performed when any of coeliac serological tests was positive. On the other hand, 184 patients with coeliac disease were subjected to thyroid biochemical (thyroid stimulating hormone and free thyroxine) and thyroid serological tests (thyroglobulin and thyroid peroxidase antibodies). RESULTS: Of 104 patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, sixteen (15%) were positive for coeliac serology and five patients with documented villous atrophy were diagnosed with coeliac disease (4.8%; 95% CI 0.7-8.9). HLA-DQ2 (and/or -DQ8) was present in all the five and 53 patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (50%; 95% CI 43-62). Of 184 patients with coeliac disease, 39 (21%) were positive for thyroid serology. Based on thyroid biochemistry, the 39 patients were subclassified into euthyroidism in ten (5%; 95% CI 2-9), subclinicalhypothyroidism in seven (3.8%; 95% CI 1.8-7.6), and overt hypothyroidism (Hashimoto’s thyroiditis) in 22 (12%; 95% CI 8-16). Moreover, four patients with coeliac disease had Graves’ disease (2%; 95% CI 0.8-5) and one patient had post-partum thyroiditis. CONCLUSION: The data from a Dutch population confirm the association between Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and coeliac disease. Screening patients with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis for coeliac disease and vice versa is recom- mended. | Muhammed Hadithi Hans de Boer Jos WR Meijer Frans Willekens Jo A Kerckhaert Roel Heijmans Amado Salvador Pea Coen DA Stehouwer Chris JJ Mulder | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,11: | 4 |
| 11 | Retrospective analysis of old-age colitis in the Dutch inflammatory bowel disease population显示文摘AIM: To describe the characteristics of Dutch patients with chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) first diagnosed above 60 years of age-a disease also known as old-age colitis (OAC) and to highlight a condition that has a similar appearance to IBD, namely segmen- tal colitis associated with diverticular disease (SCAD). METHODS: A retrospective longitudinal survey of patient demographic and clinical characteristics, disease characteristics, diagnostic methods, management and course of disease was performed. The median follow-up period was 10 years. RESULTS: Of a total of 1100 IBD patients attending the Department of Gastroenterology, 59 (5%) [median age 82 years (range 64-101); 25 male (42%)] were identified. These patients were diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (n = 37, 61%), Crohn’s disease (n = 14, 24%), and indeterminate colitis (n = 8, 15%). Remission was induced in 40 (68%) patients within a median interval of 6 mo (range 1-21) and immunosuppressive therapy was well tolerated. Histological evaluation based on many biopsy samples and the course of the disease led to other diagnosis, namely SCAD instead of IBD in five (8%) patients. CONCLUSION: OAC is not an infrequent problem for the gastroenterologist, and should be considered in the evaluation of older patients with clinical featuressuggestive of IBD. Extra awareness and extensive biopsy sampling are required in order to avoid an erroneous diagnosis purely based on histological mimicry of changes seen in SCAD, when diagnosing IBD in the presence of diverticulosis coli. | Muhammed Hadithi Marcel Cazemier Gerrit A Meijer Elisabeth Bloemena Richel J Felt-Bersma Chris J Mulder Stephan GM Meuwissen Amado Salvador Pea Adriaan A van Bodegraven | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,20: | 3 |
| 12 | Effect of B vitamin supplementation on plasma homocysteine levels in celiac disease显示文摘AIM: To investigate the effect of vitamin supplements on homocysteine levels in patients with celiac disease. METHODS: Vitamin B6, folate, vitamin B12, and fasting plasma homocysteine levels were measured in 51 consecutive adults with celiac disease [median (range) age 56 (18-63) years; 40% men, 26 (51%) had villous atrophy, and 25 (49%) used B-vitamin supplements] and 50 healthy control individuals matched for age and sex. Finally, the C677T polymorphism of 5,10-methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) was evaluated in 46 patients with celiac disease and all control individuals. RESULTS: Patients with celiac disease and using vitamin supplements had higher serum vitamin B6 (P = 0.003),folate (P < 0.001), and vitamin B12 (P = 0.012) levels than patients who did not or healthy controls (P = 0.035, P < 0.001, P = 0.007, for vitamin B6, folate, and vitamin B12, respectively). Lower plasma homocysteine levels were found in patients using vitamin supplements than in patients who did not (P = 0.001) or healthy controls (P = 0.003). However, vitamin B6 and folate, not vitamin B12, were significantly and independently associated with homocysteine levels. Twenty-four (48%) of 50 controls and 23 (50%) of 46 patients with celiac disease carried the MTHFR thermolabile variant T-allele (P = 0.89). CONCLUSION: Homocysteine levels are dependent on Marsh classification and the regular use of B-vitamin supplements is effective in reduction of homocysteine levels in patients with celiac disease and should be considered in disease management. | Muhammed Hadithi Chris JJ Mulder Frank Stam Joshan Azizi J Bart A Crusius Amado Salvador Pea Coen DA Stehouwer Yvo M Smulders | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,8: | 3 |
| 13 | Auto immune hepatitis显示文摘To provide an update of the latest trends in epidemiology, clinical course, diagnostics, complications and treatment of auto immune hepatitis(AIH). A search ofthe MEDLINE database was performed using the search terms: 'auto immune hepatitis', 'clinical presentation', 'symptoms', 'signs', 'diagnosis', 'auto antibodies', 'laboratory values', 'serology', 'histopathology', ' h i s t o l o g y ', ' g e n e t i c s ', 'HLA g e n e s ', 'non-HLA genes', 'environment', 'epidemiology', 'prevalence', 'incidence', 'demographics', 'complications', 'HCC', 'PBC', 'PSC', 'corticosteroid', 'therapy', 'treatment', 'alternative treatment'. English-language full-text articles and abstracts were considered. Articles included reviews, meta-analysis, prospective retrospective studies. No publication date restrictions were applied. AIH is an immune meditated progressive inflammatory liver disease that predominantly affects middle-aged females but may affect people of all ages. The clinical spectrum of AIH is wide, ranging from absent or mild symptoms to fulminant hepatic failure. The aetiology of AIH is still unknown, but is believed to occur as the consequence of an aberrant immune response towards an un-known trigger in a genetically susceptible host. In the absence of a gold standard, diagnosis is based on the combination of clinical, biochemical and histopathological criteria. Immunosuppressive treatment has been the cornerstone of treatment since the earliest description of the disease in 1950 by Waldenstr?m. Such treatment is often successful at inducing remission and generally leads to normal life expectancy. Nevertheless, there remain significant areas of unmet aetiological a clinical needs including fundamental insight in disease pathogenesis, optimal therapy, duration of treatment and treatment alternatives in those patients unresponsive to standard treatment regimens. | nicole mf van gerven ynto s de boer chris jj mulder carin mj van nieuwkerk gerd bouma | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,19: | 3 |
| 14 | Evolution of gastroenterology training显示文摘There have been rapid developments in gastroenterology(GE)over the last decade.Up until the late 1980s,GE-training was incorporated in Internal Medicine training.The introduction of endoscopy has necessitated the need for additional training.Around the world different national boards have developed their own curricula which will be discussed in this paper. Emphasis will be placed on the curriculum recently introduced in The Netherlands.The internal medicine component has become a two-year requirement (Common Trunk)and the duration of training in GE has been extended to four years.Because of the growing complexity of GE,there are now four subspecialties:Interventional Endoscopy,Neuromotility, Oncology and Hepatology that trainees can choose from.These subspecialties each have predefined specific requirements.The World Gastroenterology Organization has drawn up a standard curriculum which can be of help to the boards in different countries. The curriculum emphasizes the knowledge and skill components.The curriculum also defines the training recommendations,the requirements of training facilities and competence evaluation of fellows and facilities,while less is said about research,finance and the number of gastroenterologists required.In the coming decades the curriculum will need to be revised continuously.Personalization of the curriculum will be the next challenge for the years to come. | Hanna Telleman Trevlyn Felicity Burger Chris Jacob Johan Mulder | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,15: | 2 |
| 15 | Indications for 5-aminosalicylate in inflammatory bowel disease:Is the body of evidence complete?显示文摘Mesalazine is a safe drug, although adverse events may be seen in a minority of patients. This applies also to pregnant women and children. The role of mesalazine in combination therapy to improve efficacy and con- comitant drug pharmacokinetics, or in chemoprevention against inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-related co- lonic carcinoma has not yet been completely elucidated. Therapeutic success of mesalazine may be optimized by a combination of high dose and low frequency of dos- age to improve compliance. Therefore, due to its supe- rior safety profile and pharmacokinetic characteristics, mesalazine is preferable to sulphasalazine. This paper reviews the literature concerning mechanisms of action, indications and off-label use, pharmacokinetic properties and formulations, therapeutic efficacy, compliance, pae- diatric indications, chemoprevention, and safety issues and adverse event profile of mesalazine treatment versus sulphasalazine. It also highlights these controversies in order to clarify the potential benefits of mesalazines in IBD therapy and evidence for its use. | Ad A van Bodegraven Chris JJ Mulder | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,38: | 2 |
| 16 | Abdominal computed tomography in refractory coeliac disease and enteropathy associated T-cell lymphoma显示文摘AIM: To evaluate computed tomography (CT) findings, useful to suggest the presence of refractory celiac disease (RCD) and enteropathy associated T cell lymphoma (EATL). METHODS: Coeliac disease (CD) patients were divided into two groups. GroupⅠ: uncomplicated CD (n = 14) and RCD typeⅠ(n = 10). Group Ⅱ: RCD type Ⅱ (n = 15) and EATL (n = 7). RESULTS: Both groups showed classic signs of CD on CT. Intussusception was seen in 1 patient in groupⅠvs 5 in group Ⅱ (P = 0.06). Lymphadenopathy was seen in 5 patients in group Ⅱ vs no patients in groupⅠ(P = 0.01). Increased number of small mesenteric vessels was noted in 20 patients in groupⅠvs 11 in group Ⅱ (P = 0.02). Eleven patients (50%) in group Ⅱ had a splenic volume < 122 cm3 vs 4 in groupⅠ(14%), 10 patients in groupⅠ had a splenic volume > 196 cm3 (66.7%) vs 5 in group Ⅱ (33.3%) P = 0.028. CONCLUSION: CT scan is a useful tool in discriminating between CD and (Pre) EATL. RCD Ⅱ and EATL showed more bowel wall thickening, lymphadenopathy and intussusception, less increase in number of small mesenteric vessels and a smaller splenic volume compared with CD and RCDⅠ. | Maarten Mallant Muhammed Hadithi Abdul-Baqi Al-Toma Matthijs Kater Maarten Jacobs Radu Manoliu Chris Mulder Jan Hein van Waesberghe | 2007 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2007,13,11: | 2 |

| 18 | Gastroenterology training in private hospitals:India vs South Africa显示文摘In South Africa,nurses and doctors are emigrating in significant numbers. Job satisfaction,safety and ensuring career progression are important in retaining doctors to make a career in Republic of South Africa (RSA). Due to budgetary constraints many hospitals have not been upgraded. Coming home after overseas training seems difficult. In RSA it takes a minimum of 13 years for a young specialist to become registered and 15 years for subspecialists. Career progression,creating more specialist trainees in public and private hospitals and shortening the period of professional training are potential solutions to the problem. India,which has a population of more than 1 billion people,is struggling with similar problems. For the past 10-15 years,private hospitals have assisted in manpower development for medical specialist and subspecialist careers. Currently their private sector trains 60% of their recognised (sub)specialities fellows. A national task force for specialist training in RSA should be instituted. It should discuss,based on the current status and projected specialist and subspecialist personnel requirements,thefuture structure and logistics of training needs. This is required in all subspecialities including gastroenterology,as has been done in India. It is hoped that as a consequence well-trained doctors,similar to those in India,might move to provincial hospitals in rural areas,upgrading the medical services and keeping medical power in South Africa. South Africa should become a model for Sub-Saharan Africa,as India already is for South-East Asia. | Chris Jacob Johan Mulder Amarender Singh Puri Duvvur Nageshwar Reddy | 2010 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,8: | 2 |
