PDMS Microlenses for Focusing Light in Narrow Band Imaging Diagnostics

Sensors, 2019
Minimally invasive medical devices can greatly benefit from Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) diagnostic capabilities, as different wavelengths allow penetration of distinct layers of the gastrointestinal tract mucosa, improving diagnostic accuracy and targeting

Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

Evaluation of Visibility With an Eye‐tracking System: Effectiveness of Narrow‐Band Imaging for Detecting Colorectal Adenoma and Serrated Lesions

DEN Open
Objectives Image‐enhanced endoscopy may reduce colorectal cancer mortality by improving lesion detection. Narrow‐band imaging and texture and color enhancement imaging are widely used, but their diagnostic efficacy compared with white light imaging ...

The role of narrow band imaging in colorectal polyp detection

Biomolecules & Biomedicine, 2017
Colonoscopic detection and removal of polyps represent the most important prevention method for colorectal cancer. We aimed to investigate the diagnostic yield of narrow band imaging (NBI) colonoscopy for polyp detection compared with standard ...

Thiersch graft follow-up with narrow band imaging for acquired atresia of the external auditory canal: Canaloplasty with Thiersch graft versus vascularization evaluated with narrow band imaging

Biomolecules & Biomedicine, 2022
Acquired atresia of the external ear canal is a narrowing of the external ear canal (EAC) that appears obstructed by fibrous tissue or bone tissue. Acquired atresia has two different phases: wet and dry stage.

Pharmacological chromatin remodeling enhances response to estrogen therapy in ER+ breast cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Estrogen therapy elicits clinical benefit in ~ 30% of patients with endocrine‐resistant estrogen receptor (ER)‐positive breast cancer. Based on findings that ER transcriptional activation underlies response to estrogen therapy, we tested the effects of epigenetic dysregulation via pharmacological inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACi).

Narrow‐band imaging thoracoscopy in pleural amyloidosis

Respirology Case Reports, 2018
We report the case of a 68‐year‐old male non‐smoker suffering from shortness of breath for 1 year. He was referred to our institution for a definitive diagnosis. Both chest X‐ray and computed tomography scans showed bilateral hydrothorax with no pleural thickening.

Loss of AMBRA1 activates MAPK and angiogenesis signaling pathways in melanoma cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Loss of AMBRA1 in melanoma cells activates multiple oncogenic pathways associated with tumor progression. Transcriptomic and protein network analyses revealed that AMBRA1 depletion enhances MAPK/ERK signaling, angiogenesis, TGF‐β/EMT signaling, and Wnt/axon guidance pathways.

KDAC6 alters cell morphology and motility through positive and negative modulation of F‐actin distribution

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KDAC6 has been associated with cell motility and actin structures, but specific domain contributions are not established. The two catalytic domains have differential effects on motility and F‐actin regulation, affecting cortical F‐actin density, motility, stress fibers, and cell spreading.

Easy Detection and Fast Removal of Gastric Anisakis during Narrow-Band Imaging Endoscopy with L-Menthol Administration

Case Reports in Gastroenterology, 2019
Anisakiasis is a parasitic disease caused by the ingestion of raw or uncooked seafood infected with third-stage larvae of the anisakid nematodes. A 45-year-old Japanese man presented with epigastric pain and itchy skin with rash on his arm, chest, and ...
