Point: From animal models to prevention of colon cancer. Systematic review of chemoprevention in min mice and choice of the model system. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The Apc(Min/+) mouse model and the azoxymethane (AOM) rat model are the main animal models used to study the effect of dietary agents on colorectal cancer. We reviewed recently the potency of chemopreventive agents in the AOM rat model (D. E.

Does ursodeoxycholic acid change the proliferation of the colorectal mucosa? A randomized, placebo-controlled study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: In animal models ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) showed a chemoprotective effect against colon cancer. To explain this, a reduced proliferation of the colorectal mucosal proliferation was suggested.

Biofilm Exoproteins From Staphylococcus Species Impede Re‐Epithelialization of Nasal Epithelial Cells During Wound Healing and Cease Ciliary Beat Frequency

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory disease with many different contributing factors, including bacterial infection. CRS patients are typically managed with medical therapies; however, these treatments frequently fail, leaving surgery as the only viable option.

The Importance of CT Pneumocolon in Detecting Colonic Lesions

open access: yesDiyala Journal of Medicine, 2021
Background: Colonic masses are clinically important because some of them are malignant and others have a tendency to become malignant such as polyps. CT pneumocolon may have a role in the evaluation and diagnosis of these masses.

Interspecies Biofilm Dynamics Among Staphylococci: Inflammatory Contributions to Chronic Rhinosinusitis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Staphylococcus species are frequently isolated from the sinonasal niche of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients. While Staphylococcus aureus is often associated with recalcitrant CRS, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus lugdunensis are largely deemed commensal.

Immunohistochemical characterization of the proliferative activity in epithelial and stromal cells of distal colonic polyps

open access: yesZaporožskij Medicinskij Žurnal
Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Colonic polyps are known to be potential precursors to CRC. Evaluating cellular proliferative activity across various polyp types and normal mucosa is essential for ...

Determining candidate polyp morphology from CT colonography using a level-set method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper we propose a level-set segmentation for polyp candidates in Computer Tomography Colongraphy (CTC). Correct classification of the candidate polyps into polyp and non-polyp is, in most cases, evaluated using shape features.
