Prognostic Impact of Bone Mineral Density Reduction During Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NAC) in Patients Undergoing NAC Followed by Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The association between BMD reduction during NAC and the worse prognosis remains unknown, although NAC followed by esophagectomy is a standard treatment for advanced ESCC. This study appeared that BMD massive reduction was an independent prognostic factor on OS (HR, 3.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.69–6.55) and RFS (HR, 2.08; 95% CI, 1.19–3.63 ...

Relationship Between Kyphosis and Postoperative Gastroesophageal Reflux After Proximal Gastrectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study examined the relationship between kyphosis and postoperative gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after proximal gastrectomy using a kyphosis definition that is familiar to surgeons for preoperative assessment. Multivariate analysis revealed that kyphosis is an independent risk factor for GERD after proximal gastrectomy.

Impact of Ghrelin‐Depleting Gastrectomy on Long‐Term Endocrine and Metabolic Health With a Focus on Skeletal Muscle and Bone Mineral Content

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study investigates the long‐term endocrine and metabolic consequences of ghrelin‐depleted gastrectomy, with a focus on skeletal muscle mass and bone mineral content. Sustained reductions in serum desacyl‐ghrelin were linked to lower IGF‐1 levels, resulting in significant loss of muscle and bone.

Laparoscopic resection of gastric GISTs. Where do we stand now? A single-centered experience [PDF]

, 2019
Introduction. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) represent a rare type of gastrointestinal neoplasms. Resection with negative margins has been established as a mainstay treatment, but laparoscopic resections are still open to debate.

Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection Versus Laparoscopic and Endoscopic Cooperative Surgery for Superficial Duodenal Epithelial Tumors: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims This study aimed to compare the clinicopathological features and short‐term outcomes of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery (LECS) for superficial duodenal epithelial tumors (SDETs) and investigate the risk factors for severe adverse events (AEs).

Multiple Sampling Capsule Robot for Studying Gut Microbiome

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multiple sampling capsule robot (MSCR) is developed for longitudinal gut microbiome analysis. Employing electromagnetic field control, the MSCR can locomote actively, precisely align the selected channel, and collect up to six microbiome samples with minimal cross‐contamination.

Normalized autofluorescence imaging diagnostics in upper GI tract: a new method to improve specificity in neoplasia detection.

International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Pathology, 2011
BACKGROUND & AIMS This study was performed to improve the autofluorescence imaging (AFI) in the upper GI tract by applying a new method of normalized autofluorescence (NAFI) obtained via tri-modal imaging.

Synchronous gastric and duodenal metastases from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: a unique presentation of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. [PDF]

, 2018
Metastatic disease to the stomach or duodenum is an infrequent diagnosis, and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the least common primary malignancies that lead to gastric or duodenal metastases.
