RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) has been linked to the severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) prognosis, although the underlying mechanism remains unclear. It has been reported that pyroptosis worsens SAP. The present study aimed to verify whether mesenteric adipose tissue (MAT, a component of VAT) can cause secondary intestinal injury through the pyroptotic pathway. METHODS: Thirty-six male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were divided into six different groups. Twelve rats were randomly divided into the SAP and control groups. We monitored the changes of MAT and B lymphocytes infiltration in MAT of SAP rats. Twelve SAP rats were injected with MAT B lymphocytes or phosphate buffer solution (PBS). The remaining twelve SAP rats were first injected with MAT B lymphocytes, and then with MCC950 (NLRP3 inhibitor) or PBS. We collected blood and tissue samples from pancreas, gut and MAT for analysis. RESULTS: Compared to the control rats, the SAP group showed inflammation in MAT, including higher expression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), lower expression of IL-10, and histological changes. Flow cytometry analysis revealed B lymphocytes infiltration in MAT but not T lymphocytes and macrophages. The SAP rats also exhibited intestinal injury, characterized by lower expression of zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) and occludin, higher levels of lipopolysaccharide and diamine oxidase, and pathological changes. The expression of NLRP3 and n-GSDMD, which are responsible for pyroptosis, was increased in the intestine of SAP rats. The injection of MAT B lymphocytes into SAP rats exacerbated the inflammation in MAT. The upregulation of pyroptosis reduced tight junction in the intestine, which contributed to the SAP progression, including higher inflammatory indicators and worse histological changes. The administration of MCC950 to SAP + MAT B rats downregulated pyroptosis, which subsequently improved the intestinal barrier and ameliorated inflammatory response of SAP. CONCLUSIONS: In SAP, MAT B lymphocytes aggravated local inflammation, and promoted the injury to the intestine through the enteric pyroptotic pathway.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted endoscopic training of the Narrow Band Imaging International Colorectal Endoscopic (NICE) classification, which could accurately predict pathology of colorectal polyps. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance by trainees of self-driven training vs. interactive training in the prediction of colorectal polyp histology. METHODS: This was a prospective randomized controlled study at five academic centers from January 1, 2021 to May 31, 2021. Trainees with no previous formal training of narrow band imaging or blue light imaging for prediction of colorectal polyp histology were randomly allocated to the self-driven training group or interactive training group. Before and after the training, all trainees were given 20 selected cases of colorectal polyp for testing. Their diagnostic performance was analyzed. RESULTS: Overall, the two training groups showed similar accuracy of NICE classification (79.3% vs. 78.1%; P = 0.637), vessel analysis (77.8% vs. 77.6%, P = 0.939), and surface pattern analysis (78.1% vs. 76.9%, P = 0.616). The accuracy of color analysis in the interactive training group was better (74.4% vs. 80.0%, P = 0.027). For high-confidence predictions, the self-driven training group showed higher accuracy of NICE classification (84.8% vs. 78.7%, P < 0.001) but no difference for analysis of color (79.6% vs. 81.0%), vessel pattern (83.0% vs. 78.5%), and surface pattern (81.8% vs. 78.5%). CONCLUSIONS: Overall, self-driven training showed comparable accuracy of NICE classification, vessel pattern, and surface pattern to interactive training, but lower accuracy of color analysis. This method showed comparable effectiveness and is more applicable than interactive training. It is worth spreading during the COVID-19 pandemic.

RESUMEN

Acute pancreatitis is a common systemic inflammatory disease, manifested by a spectrum of severity, ranging from mild in the majority of patients to severe acute pancreatitis. Patients with severe acute pancreatitis suffer from severe local and systemic complications and organ failure, leading to a poor prognosis. The early recognition of the severe condition is important to improve prognosis. Obesity has risen in tandem with an increase in the severity of acute pancreatitis in recent years. Studies have revealed that adipose tissue, particularly visceral adipose tissue is associated with the prognosis of acute pancreatitis. This review discussed the role of visceral adipose tissue in obese patients with acute pancreatitis and explored the possible mechanism involved.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: No studies have yet been conducted on changes in microcirculatory hemodynamics of colorectal adenomas in vivo under endoscopy. The microcirculation of the colorectal adenoma could be observed in vivo by a novel high-resolution magnification endoscopy with blue laser imaging (BLI), thus providing a new insight into the microcirculation of early colon tumors. AIM: To observe the superficial microcirculation of colorectal adenomas using the novel magnifying colonoscope with BLI and quantitatively analyzed the changes in hemodynamic parameters. METHODS: From October 2019 to January 2020, 11 patients were screened for colon adenomas with the novel high-resolution magnification endoscope with BLI. Video images were recorded and processed with Adobe Premiere, Adobe Photoshop and Image-pro Plus software. Four microcirculation parameters: Microcirculation vessel density (MVD), mean vessel width (MVW) with width standard deviation (WSD), and blood flow velocity (BFV), were calculated for adenomas and the surrounding normal mucosa. RESULTS: A total of 16 adenomas were identified. Compared with the normal surrounding mucosa, the superficial vessel density in the adenomas was decreased (MVD: 0.95 ± 0.18 vs 1.17 ± 0.28 µm/µm2, P < 0.05). MVW (5.11 ± 1.19 vs 4.16 ± 0.76 µm, P < 0.05) and WSD (11.94 ± 3.44 vs 9.04 ± 3.74, P < 0.05) were both increased. BFV slowed in the adenomas (709.74 ± 213.28 vs 1256.51 ± 383.31 µm/s, P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The novel high-resolution magnification endoscope with BLI can be used for in vivo study of adenoma superficial microcirculation. Superficial vessel density was decreased, more irregular, with slower blood flow.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Sessile serrated lesions (SSLs) are often missed on colonoscopy, and studies have shown this to be an essential cause of interstitial colorectal cancer. The SSLs with dysplasia (SSL-D+), in particular, have a faster rate of carcinogenesis than conventional tubular adenomas. Therefore, there is a clinical need for some endoscopic features with independent diagnostic value for SSL-D+s to assist endoscopists in making immediate diagnoses, thus improving the quality of endoscopic examination and treatment. AIM: To compare the characteristics of SSLs, including those with and without dysplasia (SSL-D+ and SSL-D-), based on white light and image-enhanced endoscopy, to achieve an immediate differential diagnosis for endoscopists. METHODS: From January 2017 to February 2023, cases of colorectal SSLs confirmed by colonoscopy and histopathology at the Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Center of Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital were collected. The general, endoscopic, and histopathological data were reviewed and analyzed to determine the diagnostic utility. Univariate analysis was used to find potential diagnostic factors, and then multivariate regression analysis was performed to derive endoscopic features with independent diagnostic values for the SSL-D+. RESULTS: A total of 228 patients with 253 lesions were collected as a result. There were 225 cases of colorectal SSL-D-s and 28 cases of SSL-D+s. Compared to the colorectal SSL-D-, the SSL-D+ was more common in the right colon (P = 0.027) with complex patterns of depression, nodule, and elevation based on cloud-like surfaces (P = 0.003), reddish (P < 0.001), microvascular varicose (P < 0.001), and mixed type (Pit II, II-O, IIIL, IV) of crypt opening based on Pit II-O (P < 0.001). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis indicated that lesions had a reddish color [odds ratio (OR) = 18.705, 95% confidence interval (CI): 3.684-94.974], microvascular varicose (OR = 6.768, 95%CI: 1.717-26.677), and mixed pattern of crypt opening (OR = 20.704, 95%CI: 2.955-145.086) as the independent predictors for SSL-D+s. CONCLUSION: The endoscopic feature that has independent diagnostic value for SSL-D+ is a reddish color, microvascular varicose, and mixed pattern of crypt openings.

RESUMEN

Background: Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is a novel management strategy for ulcerative colitis (UC). However, its effectiveness remains controversial. This study sought to assess the effectiveness of FMT in the treatment of active UC by performing a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Methods: We searched the Cochrane, Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science databases from their inception to December 2021. RCTs that recruited patients with active UC and treated them with FMT, a placebo or a suitable comparator were included in the meta-analysis. PICOS: Patients, active UC; Intervention, FMT; Control, placebo or a suitable comparator; Outcomes, remission rate; Studies, RCTs. The risk of bias assessment was performed with Revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool (version 2). Meta-analyses of risk ratios (RRs) were performed to estimate the differences in remission rates and the risk of serious adverse events (SAEs) between the FMT-treated and control patients. Results: A total of 9 RCTs comprising 425 UC patients (213 FMT and 212 control) were included in the meta-analysis. The risk of bias was low in these RCTs. Clinical remission was observed in 86 of the 213 patients in the FMT groups and 47 of the 212 patients in the control groups [RR: 1.84; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.37, 2.47; P<0.0001]. Clinical remission was better when the FMT delivery route was via the lower gut, the FMT dose was >300 grams, and the fecal specimen from multiple donors. Endoscopic remission (observed in 7 RCTs) was achieved in 33 of the 195 FMT-treated patients compared to 17 of the 194 control patients (RR: 1.94; 95% CI: 1.14, 3.31; P=0.01). SAEs were reported in 22 of the 213 FMT-treated patients but only 11 of the 212 control patients (RR: 2.05; 95% CI: 1.03, 4.09; P=0.04). Discussion: FMT is an effective treatment for patients with active UC. Significantly higher clinical and endoscopic remission rates are observed with FMT than with control treatments. However, FMT may cause a significantly higher incidence of SAEs than control treatments. Future studies should delineate the effects of donor selection, dosage, delivery route, and antibiotic pretreatment and should evaluate the safety profile of FMT.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Understanding drug resistance is important in drug selection for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication, and drug resistance data are lacking in Beijing. PURPOSE: This cross-sectional study aimed to isolate H. pylori from patients with gastroduodenal diseases and to analyze drug resistance to clarithromycin (CLA) and levofloxacin (LEV), which are used frequently in China. PATIENTS AND METHODS: One hundred and seventy-six patients with gastroduodenal diseases undergoing gastroduodenoscopy were selected by convenient sampling. Gastric mucosa samples were cultured and sub-cultured using a new medium broth. Active H. pylori strains were confirmed by microscopy observation as Gram-negative curved bacilli with positive test results for urease, oxidase, and catalase, and H. pylori 16S rRNA amplification by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). CLA and LEV resistance was identified by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) tests and sequencing of 23S rRNA, gyrA, and gyrB genes. RESULTS: From the 176 clinical samples, 112 (112/176, 63.6%) were confirmed with H. pylori infection and 65 (65/176, 36.9%) active H. pylori strains were obtained and further confirmed by MIC assay. Overall, the rates of CLA-resistant and LEV-resistant mutations in the 112 samples were 50.9% and 33.0%, respectively. Mutation related to CLA resistance was A2143G in the 23S rRNA gene and mutations associated with LEV resistance were N87K, D91G, and D91Y in the gyrA gene. Of 112 samples, 22 (19.6%) presented dual resistance to CLA and LEV. Resistance of the H. pylori strains to CLA (r=0.846, P<0.001) and LEV (r=0.936, P<0.001) had a strong correlation in phenotypic and genotypic level. CONCLUSION: The results indicated that resistance of CLA and LEV is severe among patients with gastroduodenitis. A good consistency could be found as to drug resistance between genotypic or phenotypic assay, suggested extending the detection of H. pylori drug resistance from the MIC method to a genotypic assay.

RESUMEN

AIM: To compare the efficacy and safety of a hook knife (HO) with a hybrid knife (HK) during endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ESTD) procedure. METHODS: Between August 2012 and December 2015, the ESTD procedure was performed for 83 upper GI submucosal lesions, which originated from the muscularis propria layer identified by upper endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasonography. Of these, 34 lesions were treated by a HO, whereas 49 lesions were treated by a HK. Data regarding age, gender, presenting symptoms, tumor location and size, procedure time, complications, en bloc resection rate and others were analyzed and compared between the two groups. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in the age, gender, presenting symptoms and tumor location between the two groups. ESTD was successfully completed in all the patients, and no case was converted to laparoscopy. The mean procedure time was significantly shorter in the HK group than in the HO group (41.3 ± 20.3 min vs 57.2 ± 28.0 min, P = 0.004). The mean frequency of device exchange was 1.4 ± 0.6 in the HK group and significantly less than 3.3 ± 0.6 in the HO group (P < 0.001). The differences in tumor size and histopathological diagnoses were not significant between the two groups (P = 0.813, P = 0.363, respectively). Both groups had an equal en bloc resection rate and complete resection rate. Additionally, the complication rate was similar between the two groups (P = 0.901). During the follow-up, no recurrence occurred in either group. CONCLUSION: We demonstrate for the first time that HO and HK do not differ in efficacy or safety, but HK reduces the frequency of device exchange and procedure time.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a standard instrument for detecting upper gastrointestinal lesions. However, the distal duodenum is often missed. This study aimed to clarify the diagnostic role of EGD in the distal duodenum. METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled patients with distal duodenal lesions who underwent EGD between January 2004 and July 2016 at our center. The rate of missed diagnosis using EGD examination was calculated. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the factors associated with the missed diagnoses. RESULTS: Sixty-three patients were included in the study. The overall diagnostic rate of distal duodenal lesions on EGD was 58.7%. After excluding the patients in whom the EGD did not reach the distal duodenum, this rate rose to 82.2%. In univariate analysis, intravenous sedation (26.8% vs 68.2%, odds ratio [OR] 0.171, P = 0.002), signs of lesions adjacent to the stomach (19.4% vs 62.5%, OR 0.099, P = 0.001), prior enteroscopy experience (15.0% vs 87.0%, OR 0.026, P < 0.001), and endoscopists with experiences of over 10 years (13.8% vs 64.7%, OR 0.087, P = 0.000) were associated with a decreased risk of missed diagnosis. In multivariate analysis, signs of lesions adjacent to the stomach (OR 0.167, P = 0.039) and prior enteroscopy experience (OR 0.035, P < 0.001) were significant independent protective factors. CONCLUSION: EGD may be important in diagnosing distal duodenal lesions. Patients with gastric retention, blood in the stomach or erosion in the proximal duodenum may benefit from the deep insertion of EGD.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Small fundal submucosal tumors (SMTs) originated from the muscularis propria pose great difficulties to conventional therapies. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic cap-aspiration lumpectomy (CASL) as a new and simple full-thickness resection for the treatment of small fundal SMTs. METHODS: From July 2013 to February 2014, patients with small fundal SMTs of ≤10 mm in diameter that were originated from muscularis propria were included in the study. CASL was performed by suctioning SMTs into a transparent cap, ligating with a metal snare and resecting the tumors. The wall deficit was closed by using endoclips. RESULTS: Altogether 28 patients were included in the study. CASL achieved an en bloc resection rate of 100%, with a mean total procedure time of 23.9 min. Active perforation was found in 20 (71.4%) patients, and endoclips closed the wall defect in all 20 cases. One patient developed pneumoperitoneum and self-limited peritonitis was found in two patients, all of whom were managed successfully. Pathological examination showed that 71.4% (20/28) of the tumors were gastrointestinal stromal tumors. No tumor recurrence was observed during the follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: CASL may be a feasible and safe full-thickness resection modality for the treatment of small fundal SMTs arising from the muscularis propria. Further randomized studies are needed to confirm the results.

RESUMEN

Few studies have analyzed the training of endoscopists in the diagnosis of early gastric cancer (EGC). This study assessed whether specific training of endoscopists improves the detection rate of EGC. The rates of detection of EGC by endoscopists at the Digestive Endoscopy Center of the Affiliated Nanfang Hospital of China Southern Medical University between January 2013 and May 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Because some endoscopists received training in the diagnosis of EGC, beginning in September 2013, the study was divided into 3 time periods: January to September 2013 (period 1), September 2013 to January 2014 (period 2), and January to May 2014 (period 3). The rates of EGC detection during these 3 periods were analyzed. From January 2013 to May 2014, a total of 25,314 gastroscopy examinations were performed at our center, with 48 of these examinations (0.2%) detecting EGCs, accounting for 12.1% (48/396) of the total number of gastric cancers detected. The EGC detection rates by trained endoscopists during periods 1, 2, and 3 were 0.3%, 0.6%, and 1.5%, respectively, accounting for 22.0%, 39.0%, and 60.0%, respectively, of the gastric cancers detected during these time periods. In comparison, the EGC detection rates by untrained endoscopists during periods 1, 2, and 3 were 0.05%, 0.08%, and 0.10%, respectively, accounting for 3.1%, 6.0%, and 5.7%, respectively, of the gastric cancers detected during these times. After training, the detection rate by some trained endoscopists markedly increased from 0.2% during period 1 to 2.3% during period 3. Further, the use of magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging (M-NBI) (odds ratio = 3.1, 95% confidence interval 2.4-4.1, P < 0.001) contributed to the diagnosis of EGC. In conclusion, specific training could improve the endoscopic detection rate of EGC. M-NBI contributed to the diagnosis of EGC.
