| 3 | Comparison of scoring systems in predicting the severity of acute pancreatitis显示文摘AIM:To investigate the prognostic usefulness of several existing scoring systems in predicting the severity of acute pancreatitis(AP).METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed the prospectively collected clinical database from consecutive patients with AP in our institution between January 2011 and December 2012.Ranson,Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation(APACHE)-Ⅱ,and bedside index for severity in acute pancreatitis(BISAP)scores,and computed tomography severity index(CTSI)of all patients were calculated.Serum C-reactive protein(CRP)levels were measured at admission(CRPi)and after 24h(CRP24).Severe AP was defined as persistent organ failure for more than 48 h.The predictive accuracy of each scoring system was measured by the area under the receiver-operating curve(AUC).RESULTS:Of 161 patients,21(13%)were classified as severe AP,and 3(1.9%)died.Statistically significant cutoff values for prediction of severe AP were Ranson≥3,BISAP≥2,APACHE-Ⅱ≥8,CTSI≥3,and CRP24≥21.4.AUCs for Ranson,BISAP,APACHE-Ⅱ,CTSI,and CRP24 in predicting severe AP were 0.69(95%CI:0.62-0.76),0.74(95%CI:0.66-0.80),0.78(95%CI:0.70-0.84),0.69(95%CI:0.61-0.76),and0.68(95%CI:0.57-0.78),respectively.APACHE-Ⅱdemonstrated the highest accuracy for prediction of severe AP,however,no statistically significant pairwise differences were observed between APACHE-Ⅱand the other scoring systems,including CRP24.CONCLUSION:Various scoring systems showed similar predictive accuracy for severity of AP.Unique models are needed in order to achieve further improvement of prognostic accuracy. | Joon Hyun Cho Tae Nyeun Kim Hyun Hee Chung Kook Hyun Kim | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,8: | 35 |
| 4 | Small sphincterotomy combined with endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation versus sphincterotomy显示文摘AIM:To compare small sphincterotomy combined with endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation(SES+ ELBD)and endoscopic sphincterotomy(EST)for large bile duct stones. METHODS:We compared prospectively SES+ELBD (group A,n=27)with conventional EST(group B, n=28)for the treatment of large bile duct stones(≥ 15 mm).When the stone could not be removed with a normal basket,mechanical lithotripsy was performed. We compared the rates of complete stone removal with one session and application of mechanical lithotripsy. RESULTS:No significant differences were observed in the mean largest stone size(A:20.8 mm,B:21.3 mm), bile duct diameter(A:21.4 mm,B:20.5 mm),number of stones(A:2.2,B:2.3),or procedure time(A:18 min, B:19 min)between the two groups.The rates of complete stone removal with one session was 85%in group A and 86%in group B(P=0.473).Mechanical lithotripsy was required for stone removal in nine of 27 patients(33%)in group A and nine of 28 patients (32%,P=0.527)in group B.CONCLUSION:SES+ELBD did not show significant benefits compared to conventional EST,especially for the removal of large(≥15 mm)bile duct stones. | Hyun Gun Kim Young Koog Cheon Young Deok Cho Jong Ho Moon Do Hyun Park Tae Hoon Lee Hyun Jong Choi Sang-Heum Park Joon Seong Lee Moon Sung Lee | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,34: | 34 |
| 5 | Benefit of neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced perihilar cholangiocarcinoma显示文摘AIM To clarify the role of neoadjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy(NACCRT) followed by surgical resection for localized or locally advanced perihilar cholangiocarcinoma(CCA).METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 57 patients who underwent surgical resection with or without NACCRT for perihilar CCA; 12 patients received NACCRT and 45 patients did not received NACCRT. Patients with locally advanced perihilar CCA requiring NACCRT were defined as follows:(1) a mass involving unilateral branches of the portal vein or hepatic artery with insufficient volume of the anticipated remnant lobe; or(2) an infiltrating mass in the main portal vein that was too long for reconstruction, identified at preoperative staging. RESULTS The median disease-free survival(DFS) durations of the neoadjuvant and non-neoadjuvant CCRT groups were26.0 and 15.1 mo, respectively(P = 0.91). The median overall survival(OS) durations of the neoadjuvant and non-neoadjuvant CCRT groups were 32.9 and 27.1 mo, respectively(P = 0.26). The NACCRT group showed a downstaging tendency compared to the non-NACCRT group as compared with the tumor stage confirmed by histological examination after surgery and the tumor stage confirmed by imaging test at the time of diagnosis(P = 0.01). CONCLUSION NACCRT does not prolong DFS and OS in localized or locally advanced perihilar CCA. However, NACCRT may allow tumor downstaging and improve tumor resectability. | Jang Han Jung Hyun Jik Lee Hee Seung Lee Jung Hyun Jo In Rae Cho Moon Jae Chung Jeong Youp Park Seung Woo Park Si Young Song Seungmin Bang | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,18: | 21 |
| 6 | The dynamics of the piglet gut microbiome during the weaning transition in association with health and nutrition显示文摘Background: Understanding the composition of the microbial community and its functional capacity during weaning is important for pig production as bacteria play important roles in the pig's health and growth performance. However,limited information is available regarding the composition and function of the gut microbiome of piglets in early-life.Therefore, we performed 16 S rRNA gene and whole metagenome shotgun sequencing of DNA from fecal samples from healthy piglets during weaning to measure microbiome shifts, and to identify the potential contribution of the early-life microbiota in shaping piglet health with a focus on microbial stress responses, carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism.Results: The analysis of 16 S rR NA genes and whole metagenome shotgun sequencing revealed significant compositional and functional differences between the fecal microbiome in nursing and weaned piglets. The fecal microbiome of the nursing piglets showed higher relative abundance of bacteria in the genus Bacteroides with abundant gene families related to the utilization of lactose and galactose. Prevotel a and Lactobacil us were enriched in weaned piglets with an enrichment for the gene families associated with carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism. In addition, an analysis of the functional capacity of the fecal microbiome showed higher abundances of genes associated with heat shock and oxidative stress in the metagenome of weaned piglets compared to nursing piglets.Conclusions: Overal, our data show that microbial shifts and changes in functional capacities of the piglet fecal microbiome resulted in potential reductions in the effects of stress, including dietary changes that occur during weaning.These results provide us with new insights into the piglet gut microbiome that contributes to the growth of the animal. | Robin B.Guevarra Sang Hyun Hong Jin Ho Cho Bo-Ra Kim Jiwon Shin Jun Hyung Lee Bit Na Kang Young Hwa Kim Suphot Wattanaphansak Richard E.Isaacson Minho Song Hyeun Bum Kim | 2018 | Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology2018,9,4: | 16 |
| 7 | Prevalence of clonorchiasis in patients with gastrointestinal disease: A Korean nationwide multicenter survey显示文摘AIM: To investigate prevalence of Clonorchis sinensis in patients with gastrointestinal symptoms, and the relation of the infection to hepatobiliary diseases in 26 hospitals in Korea.METHODS: Consecutive patients who had been admitted to the Division of Gastroenterology with gastrointestinal symptoms were enrolled from March to April 2005. Of those who had been diagnosed with clonorchiasis, epidemiology and correlation between infection and hepatobiliary diseases were surveyed by questionnaire.RESULTS: Of 3080 patients with gastrointestinal diseases, 396 (12.9%) had clonorchiasis and 1140 patients (37.2%) had a history of eating raw freshwater fish. Of those with a history of raw freshwater fish ingestion, 238 (20.9%) patients had clonorchiasis. Cholangiocarcinoma was more prevalent in C. sinensis-infected patients than non-infected patients [34/396 (8.6%) vs 145/2684 (5.4%), P = 0.015]. Cholangiocarcinoma and clonorchiasis showed statistically significant positive cross-relation (P = 0.008). Choledocholithiasis, cholecystolithiasis, cholangitis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and biliary pancreatitis did not correlate with clonorchiasis.CONCLUSION: Infection rate of clonorchiasis was still high in patients with gastrointestinal diseases in Korea, and has not decreased very much during the last two decades. Cholangiocarcinoma was related to clonorchiasis, which suggested an etiological role for the parasite. | Ho Gak Kim Jimin Han Myung-Hwan Kim Kyu Hyun Cho Im Hee Shin Gwang Ha Kim Jae Seon Kim Jin Bong Kim Tae Nyeun Kim Tae Hyeon Kim Tae Hyo Kim Jae Woo Kim Ji Kon Ryu Young-Soo Moon Jong Ho Moon Sung Jae Park Chan Guk Park Sung-Jo Bang Chang Heon Yang Kyo-Sang Yoo Byung Moo Yoo Kyu Taek Lee Dong Ki Lee Byung Seok Lee Sang Soo Lee Seung Ok Lee Woo Jin Lee Chang Min Cho Young-Eun Joo Gab Jin Cheon Young Woo Choi Jae Bok Chung Yong Bum Yoon | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,1: | 15 |
| 8 | Intrahepatic biliary cystadenoma:Is there really an almost exclusively female predominance?显示文摘Biliary cystic tumors,such as cystadenomas and cystadenocarcinomas,are rare cystic tumors of the liver,accounting for less than 5% of all intrahepatic cysts of biliary origin.Biliary cystadenomas have been known to occur predominantly in women (> 85%),and 38%-44% of biliary cystadenocarcinomas have occurred in males.We wrote this letter to comment on a brief article (World J Gasteroenterol 2011 January 21;17(3):361-365) regarding a case of intrahepatic biliary cystic neoplasm treated with surgery.The adenoma-carcinoma sequence is the possible mechanism of carcinogenesis.If the carcinogenesis of biliary cystadenocarcinoma occurs in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence,we believe that the male-to-female ratio of cystadenoma should be higher than the incidence rate that has been reported to date. | Ho Hyun Kim Young Hoe Hur Yang Seok Koh Chol Kyoon Cho Jin Woong Kim | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,25: | 12 |
| 9 | Plasma levels of acylated ghrelin in patients with functional dyspepsia显示文摘AIM:To investigate the relationship between plasma acylated ghrelin levels and the pathophysiology of functional dyspepsia.METHODS:Twenty-two female patients with functional dyspepsia and twelve healthy volunteers were recruited for the study.The functional dyspepsia patients were each diagnosed based on the Rome Ⅲ criteria.Eligible patients completed a questionnaire concerning the severity of 10 symptoms.Plasma acylated ghrelin levels before and after a meal were determined in the study participants using a commercial human acylated enzyme immunoassay kit;electrogastrograms were performed for 50 min before and after a standardized 10-min meal containing 265 kcal.RESULTS:There were no significant differences in plasma acylated ghrelin levels between healthy volunteers and patients with functional dyspepsia.However,in patients with functional dyspepsia,there was a negative correlation between fasting plasma acylated ghrelin levels and the sum score of epigastric pain(r =-0.427,P = 0.047) and a positive correlation between the postprandial/fasting plasma acylated ghrelin ratio and the sum score of early satiety(r = 0.428,P =0.047).Additionally,there was a negative correlation between fasting acylated ghrelin plasma levels and fasting normogastria(%)(r =-0.522,P = 0.013).Interestingly,two functional dyspepsia patients showed paradoxically elevated plasma acylated ghrelin levels after the meal.CONCLUSION:Abnormal plasma acylated ghrelin levels before or after a meal may be related to several of the dyspeptic symptoms seen in patients with functional dyspepsia. | Yeon Soo Kim Joon Seong Lee Tae Hee Lee Joo Young Cho Jin Oh Kim Wan Jung Kim Hyun Gun Kim Seong Ran Jeon Hoe Su Jeong | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,18: | 12 |
| 10 | Risk prediction platform for pancreatic fistula after pancreatoduodenectomy using artificial intelligence显示文摘BACKGROUND Despite advancements in operative technique and improvements in postoperative managements,postoperative pancreatic fistula(POPF)is a life-threatening complication following pancreatoduodenectomy(PD).There are some reports to predict POPF preoperatively or intraoperatively,but the accuracy of those is questionable.Artificial intelligence(AI)technology is being actively used in the medical field,but few studies have reported applying it to outcomes after PD.AIM To develop a risk prediction platform for POPF using an AI model.METHODS Medical records were reviewed from 1769 patients at Samsung Medical Center who underwent PD from 2007 to 2016.A total of 38 variables were inserted into AI-driven algorithms.The algorithms tested to make the risk prediction platform were random forest(RF)and a neural network(NN)with or without recursive feature elimination(RFE).The median imputation method was used for missing values.The area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to examine the discriminative power of algorithm for POPF prediction.RESULTS The number of POPFs was 221(12.5%)according to the International Study Group of Pancreatic Fistula definition 2016.After median imputation,AUCs using 38 variables were 0.68±0.02 with RF and 0.71±0.02 with NN.The maximal AUC using NN with RFE was 0.74.Sixteen risk factors for POPF were identified by AI algorithm:Pancreatic duct diameter,body mass index,preoperative serum albumin,lipase level,amount of intraoperative fluid infusion,age,platelet count,extrapancreatic location of tumor,combined venous resection,co-existing pancreatitis,neoadjuvant radiotherapy,American Society of Anesthesiologists’score,sex,soft texture of the pancreas,underlying heart disease,and preoperative endoscopic biliary decompression.We developed a web-based POPF prediction platform,and this application is freely available at http://gffzz52cab37b8d4e4d2ch9o6qcquvc0vk65u5.ffgz.tsg.suse.edu.cn This study is the first to predict POPF with multiple risk factors using AI.This platform is reliable(AUC 0.74),so it could be used to select patients who need especially intense therapy and to preoperatively establish an effective treatment strategy. | In Woong Han Kyeongwon Cho Youngju Ryu Sang Hyun Shin Jin Seok Heo Dong Wook Choi Myung Jin Chung Oh Chul Kwon Baek Hwan Cho | 2020 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2020,26,30: | 12 |
| 11 | Endoscopic features suggesting gastric cancer in biopsy-proven gastric adenoma with high-grade neoplasia显示文摘AIM:To elucidate the endoscopic features that predict the cancer following endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)in patients with high-grade neoplasia(HGN).METHODS:We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of patients who underwent ESD of gastric neoplasms from January 2007 to September 2010.ESD was performed in 555 cases involving 550 patients.A total of 112 lesions from 110 consecutive patients were initially diagnosed as HGN without cancer by forceps biopsy,and later underwent ESD.We classified lesions into two groups according to histologic discrepancies between the biopsy and ESD diagnosis.Gastric adenoma in the final diagnosis by ESD specimens were defined as adenoma group.Lesions with coexisting cancer after ESD were defined as cancer group.RESULTS:The mean age was 65.3 years,and 81 patients were male.There was no significant difference in the age or gender distribution between the adenoma(n=52)and cancer(n=60)groups.Thirty-six of these lesions(32.1%)showed histologic concordance between the forceps biopsy and ESD specimens,16(14.3%)showed a downgraded histology(low-grade neoplasia),and 60(53.6%)showed an upgraded histology(cancer).A red color change of the mucosal surface on endoscopy was found in 27/52(51.9%)of cases in the adenoma group and in 46/60(76.7%)of cases in the cancer group(P=0.006).Ulceration of the mucosal surface on endoscopy was found in 5(9.6%)of 52 lesions in the adenoma group and in 17(28.3%)of 60 lesions in the cancer group(P=0.013).In the multivariate analysis,a reddish surface color change and mucosal ulceration were significant predictive factors correlated with cancer after ESD of the HGN by forceps biopsy.CONCLUSION:HGN with a red color change or mucosal ulceration correlated with the presence of gastric cancer.These finding may help to guide the diagnosis and treatment. | Jung Ho Kim Yoon Jae Kim Jungsuk An Jong Joon Lee Jae Hee Cho Kyoung Oh Kim Jun-Won Chung Kwang An Kwon Dong Kyun Park Ju Hyun Kim | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,34: | 10 |

| 13 | Association of chronic viral hepatitis B with insulin resistance显示文摘AIM:To investigate the relationship between chronic viral hepatitis B(CVHB) and insulin resistance(IR) in Korean adults.METHODS:A total of 7880 adults(3851 men,4029 women) who underwent a comprehensive medical examination were enrolled in this study.Subjects diagnosed with either diabetes mellitus,or any other disorder that could influence their insulin sensitivity,were rejected.Anthropometry,metabolic risk factors,hepatitis B surface antigen,hepatitis B surface antibody,hepatitis B core antibody,fasting plasma glucose and insulin were measured for all subjects.Homeostasis model assessment(HOMA),quantitative insulin check index(QUICKI),and Mf fm index were used for determining insulin sensitivity.Each participant was categorized into a negative,recovery,or CVHB group.To compare variables between groups,a t-test and/or one-way analysis of variance were used.Partial correlation coefficients were computed to present the association between insulin resistance and other variables.Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to assess the independent association between CVHB and IR.RESULTS:The mean age of men and women were 48.9 and 48.6 years,respectively.Subjects in the CVHB group had significantly higher waist circumference [(86.0 ± 7.7 cm vs 87.3 ± 7.8 cm,P = 0.004 in men),(78.3 ± 8.6 cm vs 80.5 ± 8.5 cm,P < 0.001 in women)],cystatin C [(0.96 ± 0.15 mg/dL vs 1.02 ± 0.22 mg/dL,P < 0.001 in men),(0.84 ± 0.15 mg/dL vs 0.90 ± 0.16 mg/dL,P < 0.001 in women)],fasting insulin [(5.47 ± 3.38 U/mL vs 6.12 ± 4.62 U/mL,P < 0.001 in men),(4.57 ± 2.82 U/mL vs 5.06 ± 3.10 U/mL,P < 0.001 in women)] and HOMA index [(1.24 ± 0.86 vs 1.43 ± 1.24,P < 0.001 in men),(1.02 ± 0.76 vs 1.13 ± 0.87,P = 0.033 in women)] compared to control group.The HOMA index revealed a positive correlation with body mass index(BMI)(r = 0.378,P < 0.001),waist circumference(r =0.356,P < 0.001),percent body fat(r = 0.296,P < 0.001),systolic blood pressure(r = 0.202,P < 0.001),total cholesterol(r = 0.134,P < 0.001),triglycerides(r = 0.292,P < 0.001),cystatin C(r = 0.069,P < 0.001) and uric acid(r = 0.142,P < 0.001).The QUICKI index revealed a negative correlation with BMI(r =-0.254,P < 0.001),waist circumference(r = 0-0.243,P < 0.001),percent body fat(r =-0.217,P < 0.001),systolic blood pressure(r =-0.132,P < 0.001),total cholesterol(r =-0.106,P < 0.001),triglycerides(r =-0.205,P < 0.001),cystatin C(r =-0.044,P < 0.001) and uric acid(r =-0.096,P < 0.001).For subjects identified with IR,the odds ratio of an accompanying diagnosis of chronic hepatitis B was 1.534(95% CI:1.158-2.031,HOMA index criteria) or 1.566(95% CI:1.124-2.182,QUICKI criteria) after adjustment for age,gender,BMI,and amount of alcohol consumption.CONCLUSION:Our study demonstrates that CVHB is associated with IR.CVHB may need to be monitored for occurrence of IR and diabetes mellitus. | Jeong Gyu Lee Sangyeoup Lee Yun Jin Kim Byung Mann Cho Joo Sung Park Hyung Hoi Kim JaeHun Cheong Dong Wook Jeong Yu Hyun Lee Young Hye Cho Mi Jin Bae Eun Jung Choi | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,42: | 10 |
| 14 | Intraoperative radiofrequency ablation with or without tumorectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma in locations difficult for a percutaneous approach显示文摘BACKGROUND:Although hepatic resection is widely accepted as a proper modality for treating hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),a majority of patients are unable to undergo surgical resection due to various tumor and patient factors.Radiofrequency ablation(RFA)has mostly been used as a therapeutic alternative to resection for treating HCC.The objective of this study was to evaluate the results of intraoperative RFA for HCCs in locations difficult for a percutaneous approach.METHODS:Eight patients(male,seven;age,49-67 years) with 8 HCCs in difficult locations were treated by intraoperative RFA.Six of the patients had local tumor progression after initial transarterial chemoembolization or ultrasound(US)guided percutaneous RFA.The locations of the tumors were hepatic dome in six patients,posterior subcapsule in one,and caudate lobe in one.The tumor size was 2.0 to 6.4 cm(mean,3.9 cm).Intraoperative RFA was performed at the tumor itself and an anticipated resection line under US guidance with 3 cm monopolar single or clustered internally cooled electrodes.Tumor resection was performed in six patients.One month later,treatment response was assessed by contrast material-enhanced computed tomography(CT).CT studies were performed every 2 or 3 months after RFA.RESULTS:RFA was technically successful in all tumors,and the contrast-enhanced CT images acquired one month later showed complete disappearance of tumor enhancement.One pneumothorax occurred.After a median follow-up of 18 months(range,6-30 months),no tumors showed local progression.During the follow-up period,four new recurrent tumors were observed in three patients.Four patients were alive at the time of this report and the other four died of hepatorenal syndrome,liver failure,and progression of new recurrent tumors.CONCLUSION:Intraoperative RFA with tumor resection can be an alterative treatment option for HCC in locations difficult for a percutaneous approach. | Hyung Ook Kim Seung Kwon Kim Byung Ho Son Chang Hak Yoo Hyun Pyo Hong Yong Kyun Cho Byung Ik Kim | 2009 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2009,8,6: | 9 |
| 15 | Optimal culture conditions for the generation of natural killer cell-induced dendritic cells for cancer immunotherapy显示文摘Dendritic cell(DC)-based vaccines continue to be considered an attractive tool for cancer immunotherapy.DCs require an additional signal from the environment or other immune cells to polarize the development of immune responses toward T helper 1(Th1)or Th2 responses.DCs play a role in natural killer(NK)cell activation,and NK cells are also able to activate and induce the maturation of DCs.We investigated the types of NK cells that can induce the maturation and enhanced function of DCs and the conditions under which these interactions occur.DCs that were activated by resting NK cells in the presence of inflammatory cytokines exhibited increased expression of several costimulatory molecules and an enhanced ability to produce IL-12p70.NK cell-stimulated DCs potently induced Th1 polarization and exhibited the ability to generate tumor antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte responses.Our data demonstrate that functional DCs can be generated by coculturing immature DCs with freshly isolated resting NK cells in the presence of Toll-like receptor agonists and proinflammatory cytokines and that the resulting DCs effectively present antigens to induce tumor-specific T-cell responses,which suggests that these cells may be useful for cancer immunotherapy. | Thanh-Nhan Nguyen-Pham Deok-Hwan Yang Truc-Anh Thi Nguyen Mi-Seon Lim Cheol Yi Hong Mi-Hyun Kim Hyun Ju Lee Youn-Kyung Lee Duck Cho Soo-Young Bae Jae-Sook Ahn Yeo-Kyeoung Kim Ik-Joo Chung Hyeoung-Joon Kim Je-Jung Lee | 2012 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2012,9,1: | 8 |
| 16 | Clinical significance and risk factors of postembolization fever in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘AIM:To investigate tumor response and survival in patients with postembolization fever(PEF) and to determine the risk factors for PEF.METHODS:Four hundred forty-three hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) patients who underwent the first session of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE) between January 2005 and December 2009 were analyzed retrospectively.PEF was defined as a body temperature greater than 38.0 ℃ that developed within 3 d of TACE without evidence of infection.The tumor progression-free interval was defined as the interval from the first TACE to the second TACE based on mRECIST criteria.Clinical staging was based on the American Joint Committee on Cancer tumor,node,metastases(TNM) classification of malignant tumors.All patients were admitted before their 1 st TACE treatment,and blood samples were obtained from all patients before and after treatment.Clinicoradiological variables and host-related variables were compared between two groups:patients with PEF vs patients without PEF.Additionally,variables related to 20-mo mortality and tumor progression-free survival were analyzed.RESULTS:The study population comprised 370(85.4%) men and 73(14.6%) women with a mean age of 62.29 ± 10.35 years.A total of 1836 TACE sessions were conducted in 443 patients,and each patient received between 1 and 27(mean:4.14 ± 3.57) TACE sessions.The mean follow-up duration was 22.23 ± 19.6 mo(range:0-81 mo).PEF developed in 117 patients(26.41%) at the time of the first TACE session.PEF was not associated with 20-mo survival(P = 0.524) or computed tomography(CT) response(P = 0.413) in a univariate analysis.A univariate analysis further indicated that diffuse-type HCC(P = 0.021),large tumor size(≥ 5 cm)(P = 0.046),lipiodol dose(≥ 7 mL,P = 0.001),poor blood glucose control(P = 0.034),alanine aminotransferase(ALT) value after TACE(P = 0.004) and C-reactive protein(CRP) value after TACE(P = 0.036) served as possible risk factors correlated with PEF.The ALT value after TACE(P = 0.021) and lipiodol dose over 7 mL(P = 0.011) were independent risk factors for PEF in the multivariate analysis.For the 20-mo survival,poor blood sugar control(P < 0.001),portal vein thrombosis(P = 0.001),favorable CT response after TACE(P < 0.001),initial aspartate aminotransferase(P = 0.02),initial CRP(P = 0.042),tumor size(P < 0.001),TNM stage(P < 0.001) and lipiodol dose(P < 0.001) were possible risk factors in the univariate analysis.Tumor size(P = 0.03),poor blood sugar control(P = 0.043),and portal vein thrombosis(P = 0.031) were significant predictors of survival in the multivariate analysis.Furthermore,the tumor progression-free interval was closely associated with CRP > 1 mg/dL(P = 0.003),tumor size > 5 cm(P < 0.001),tumor type(poorly defined)(P < 0.001),and lipiodol dose(> 7 mL,P < 0.001).CONCLUSION:PEF has no impact on survival at 20 mo or radiologic response.However,the ALT level after TACE and the lipiodol dose represent significant risk factors for PEF. | Chung Hwan Jun Ho Seok Ki Hoon Ki Lee Kang Jin Park Seon Young Park Sung Bum Cho Chang Hwan Park Young Eun Joo Hyun Soo Kim Sung Kyu Choi Jong Sun Rew | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,2: | 7 |
| 17 | Splenic infarction associated with sorafenib use in a hepatocellular carcinoma patient显示文摘Sorafenib,a multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor,has been shown to improve survival in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).As the clinical use of sorafenib increases,many adverse effects have been reported,such as hand-foot skin reaction,diarrhea,anorexia,asthenia,alopecia,weight loss,hypertension and arterial thromboembolism.However,there are no prior reports of splenic infarction as an adverse effect of sorafenib.Here,a case of splenic infarction in a patient with HCC who was treated with sorafenib is reported. The patient had no other predisposing factors to explain the splenic infarction except for the administration of sorafenib.The splenic infarction improved after sorafenib was discontinued;however,the HCC progressed. | Sang Ock Kim Sang Young Han Yang Hyun Baek Sung Wook Lee Ji Sun Han Byung Geun Kim Jin Han Cho Kyung Jin Nam | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,2: | 7 |
| 18 | Risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with drug-resistant chronic hepatitis B显示文摘AIM:To investigate the risk factors and characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) in the patients with drug-resistant chronic hepatitis B(CHB).METHODS:A total of 432 patients with drug-resistant CHB were analyzed retrospectively from January 2004to December 2012. The patients were divided into two groups:the HCC group(n = 57) and the non-HCC group(n = 375). Two groups compared using logistic regression for various patients and viral characteristics in order to identify associated risk factors for HCC.Secondarily,patient and tumor characteristics of HCC patients with na ve CHB(N group,n = 117) were compared to the HCC group(R group,n = 57) to identify any difference in HCC characteristics between them.RESULTS:A significant difference was found for age,platelet count,alpha-fetoprotein(AFP),positivity of HBeAg,seroconversion rate of HBeAg,virologic response,the Child-Pugh score,presence of rtM204I,and the duration of antiviral treatment in non-HCC and HCC group. Cirrhosis,age(> 50 years),HBeAg(+),virologic non-responder status,and rtM204I mutants were independent risk factors for the development of HCC. The R group had lower serum C-reactive protein(CRP) and AFP levels,earlier stage tumors,and a shorter mean tumor surveillance period than the N group. However,the total follow-up duration was not significantly different between the two groups.CONCLUSION:13.2% of patients with drug-resistant CHB developed HCC. Age,cirrhosis,YIDD status,HBeAg status,and virologic response are associated with risk of HCC. Patients with drug-resistant CHB and these clinical factors may benefit from closer HCC surveillance. | Chung Hwan Jun Hyoung Ju Hong Min Woo Chung Seon Young Park Sung Bum Cho Chang Hwan Park Young Eun Joo Hyun Soo Kim Sung Kyu Choi Jong Sun Rew | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,40: | 7 |
