RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: No protocol for esophagogastroduodenoscopic examination of the duodenum has been established. We examined the feasibility and ability to detect neoplasms of a novel duodenal examination protocol. METHODS: This was a two-facility, prospective, observational study. Our protocol, the Seven Pictures Rule (7PR), requires pictures of the following seven locations: anterior and posterior to the bulb, area of and contralateral to the superior duodenal angle, area of and contralateral to the ampulla, and the transverse duodenum. The primary outcome was rate of completion of 7PR. Secondary outcomes were overall rates of detecting neoplasms, rates of detecting neoplasms for each location, examination time, and completion rates for standard or ultrathin endoscopes. RESULTS: There were 1549 participants. The 7PR completion rate was 81.1% and the detection rates of overall neoplasms, adenomas, and carcinomas were 0.84%, 0.71%, and 0.06%, respectively. The area in which most neoplasms was detected was contralateral to the ampulla (69.2%), and the fewest the transverse duodenum (0%). Mean duration of duodenal examination was 53.1 s. Completion rates for standard vs. ultrathin were 84.4% (1077/1276) vs. 65.6% (179/273) (P < 0.01), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Seven Pictures Rule is acceptable for duodenal examination and a potential quality indicator.

INTRODUCTION: Mucosal defect closure after colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) may prevent post-ESD adverse events. Delayed bleeding is a particular concern in the rectum due to the presence of numerous blood vessels. However, rectal defect closure often fails due to the thick rectal wall. This study aimed to examine the feasibility of our newly developed endoscopic ligation with O-ring closure (E-LOC) for defects after rectal ESD. METHODS: This was a prospective observational study conducted at a single institution. After excluding 2 patients with tumors mostly extending into the anal canal, the study cohort comprised 30 consecutive patients who underwent ESD of rectal neoplasms between July 2020 and July 2021. E-LOC using an endoscopic variceal ligation device was performed for closing mucosal defects after rectal ESD. The primary outcome was the complete closure rate. The secondary outcomes were the delayed bleeding rate, E-LOC procedure time, sustained closure rates on postoperative day (POD) 3, and E-LOC-associated complications. RESULTS: Complete closure of the defect (median defect size 29.0 mm) was successfully achieved in 24 cases (80%). Delayed bleeding occurred in one case with incomplete closure (3.3%). The median E-LOC procedure time was 25.5 min (interquartile range, 20.0-30.0 min). The sustained closure rates were 83.3% (20/24) on POD 3 in the 24 cases with complete closure. No E-LOC-associated complications occurred. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSIONS: E-LOC was feasible for defect closure after rectal ESD, and probably led to a decreased incidence of delayed bleeding.

BACKGROUND: The recently developed endoscopic full-thickness resection technique requires reliable closure. The main closure methods are the purse-string suture (PSS) technique and over-the-scope clip (OTSC) technique; however, basic data on the closure strength of each technique are lacking. This study was performed to compare the closure strengths of these two methods in an ex vivo porcine model. METHODS: In the traction test, a virtual 5-cm full-thickness closure line was closed by the following six methods three times each: conventional hemoclips, mucosal PSS, seromuscular PSS, mucosal OTSC, seromuscular OTSC, and surgical suture. The primary endpoint was the tension at the starting point of dehiscence, measured in Newtons (N) by an automatic traction machine. In the leak test, a 15-mm gastric full-thickness defect was closed by PSS or OTSC six times each, and the closed stomach was then pressurized in a water container. The primary endpoint was the leak pressure when air bubbles appeared. The secondary endpoints were the procedure time and presence of complete inverted closure. RESULTS: The mean tension was 2.16, 3.68, 5.15, 18.30, 19.30, and 62.40 N for conventional hemoclips, mucosal PSS, seromuscular PSS, mucosal OTSC, seromuscular OTSC, and surgical suture, respectively. Complete inverted closure was observed for seromuscular PSS, seromuscular OTSC, and surgical suture. The mean leak pressure was 13.7 and 24.8 mmHg in the PSS and OTSC group, respectively (P < 0.01). The mean procedure time was 541 and 169 s in the PSS and OTSC group, respectively (P < 0.01). Complete inverted closure was observed in OTSC alone. CONCLUSION: The OTSC, which allows complete inverted closure, showed greater closure strength than PSS. Considering the size limitation suitable for single OTSC, a therapeutic strategy for closing the larger size is further warranted.

BACKGROUND: We examined the efficacy of a novel endoscopic ligation technique with O-ring closure (E-LOC) to prevent bleeding after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) under antithrombotic therapy. METHODS: This single-center prospective study involved consecutive patients who were taking antithrombotic agents and underwent gastric ESD. E-LOC was performed by anchoring the nylon loop with hemoclips on both defect edges and/or the exposed muscle layer, and using O-ring band ligation around these deployed clips. The primary outcome was post-ESD bleeding rate. Secondary outcomes were complete closure rate, procedure time, sustained closure rate, and complications. RESULTS: 48 patients were finally analyzed. The post-ESD bleeding rate was 0â%, the complete closure rate was 97.9â%, and the mean closure time was 29.9 minutes. The sustained closure rate was 95.8â% at postoperative day 2-3 and 33.3â% at postoperative day 10-11.âNo complications occurred. CONCLUSION: E-LOC may be an effective option for closing mucosal defects after gastric ESD under antithrombotic therapy. However, the preventive effect on post-ESD bleeding should be further investigated in high risk groups.

BACKGROUND: The risk of bleeding after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in antithrombotic agent users has increased, and its management remains a problem. Second-look endoscopy (SLE) following gastric ESD in antithrombotic agent users may be effective in preventing delayed bleeding, but this requires elucidation. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the efficacy of SLE in reducing bleeding after gastric ESD in patients receiving antithrombotic agents. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study was conducted at 19 referral hospitals in Japan. A total of 1,245 patients who were receiving antithrombotic agents underwent gastric ESD between January 2013 and July 2018. The incidence of delayed bleeding was compared between SLE and non-SLE groups using propensity score matching analysis. RESULTS: Overall, 858 patients (SLE group, 657 patients; non-SLE group, 201 patients) were analyzed. After matching, 198 pairs were created. Delayed bleeding occurred in 10 patients (5.1%) in the SLE group and 16 patients (8.1%) in the non-SLE group [odds ratio (OR) 0.605, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.23-1.46, p = 0.310]. In the subgroup analysis, SLE reduced the incidence of delayed bleeding in patients receiving heparin bridging therapy (6.3% and 40.0%, respectively; p = 0.004). In the SLE group, prophylactic coagulation did not significantly reduce delayed bleeding compared to the no treatment group (14.6% and 8.6%, respectively; p = 0.140). CONCLUSIONS: SLE was ineffective in reducing bleeding after gastric ESD in antithrombotic agent users, overall. A prospective comparative study is warranted to definitively evaluate the effectiveness of SLE in reducing bleeding in high-risk patients.

BACKGROUND: The management of postoperative bleeding, after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), has become particularly important because of the recent increase in antithrombotic use. Endoscopic shielding with polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheets has been shown to be effective. However, shrinkage and early displacement of the sheet remain challenges. This study aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of our developed method, named wafer paper and ring-mounted PGA sheet (WaRP). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty-four patients with antithrombotic uptake who underwent the WaRP method following gastric ESD were retrospectively examined. This involved the delivery of a PGA sheet wrapped in wafer paper with ring-thread, and its fixation on the gastric floor using hemoclips. The primary outcome was the technical success rate of the WaRP, and several secondary outcomes were evaluated. RESULTS: The technical success rate of WaRP was 100%. The procedure lasted a mean of 10.5 min (SD 6.7 min). The prevalence of complete retention at follow-up endoscopy was 83.3% (20/24). There were no WaRP-associated complications, but post-ESD hemorrhage occurred in two patients undergoing hemodialysis (8.3%). CONCLUSIONS: The WaRP method is a simple and reliable means of PGA sheet delivery and placement that reduces the incidence of post-ESD hemorrhage.

BACKGROUND: The Over-the-scope clip (OTSC) has been recently introduced for multiple purposes, including refractory bleeding, perforation, fistula, and anastomotic dehiscence of the gastrointestinal tract. However, no easy access techniques for delivering OTSCs to distant sites have been described. Therefore, we have developed a simple and safe guidewire-assisted OTSC delivery (GOD) method for use on the distal intestine. This study aimed to investigate the technical feasibility and safety of the method. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Between June 2018 and April 2019, all eight patients who underwent the GOD method were retrospectively examined. The primary outcome was the successful rate of OTSC delivery to the lesion without complications. The secondary outcomes were GOD procedure time, total procedure time, technical and clinical OTSC success rates, and GOD- and OTSC-associated complications. RESULTS: The rate of successful OTSC delivery was 100%. The median procedure time of GOD was 21 min (range 8-29). The median total procedure time was 38.5 min (range 26-41). The technical and clinical success rates of OTSC were 100% and 75% (6/8), respectively. No GOD- or OTSC-associated complications occurred. CONCLUSIONS: The GOD method is a feasible and safe technique for delivering OTSC toward the small and proximal large intestine.

BACKGROUND: The Over-The-Scope Clip (OTSC) can effectively treat refractory gastrointestinal diseases. However, most reports have focused on short-term effectiveness. We examined clinical outcomes of the deployed clips and long-term characteristics. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Of 47 patients with OTSC treatment, 35 with follow-up periods of ≥3 months were retrospectively examined. The indications were 11 bleedings, 17 perforations, and seven fistulas. The observation period was defined as medium-term (3 to <12 months) or long-term (≥12 months). The primary outcome was the clinical success rate without disease recurrence. The secondary outcomes were the complication rate, survival duration, and clip retention rate. RESULTS: The medium- and long-term clinical success rates were 100% during the observation period (median, 44 months; range, 3-78 months). The complication rate was 2.9% (n = 1). The median survival time was 1,634 days for bleeding, 1,757 days for perforation, and 444 days for fistulas. The overall clip retention rates were 56.4%, 38.1%, 30.9%, and 25.9% after one, six, and 12 months and at the final follow-up, respectively. The average clip retention duration was 244 days in bleeding, 656 days in perforations, and 188 days in fistulas. CONCLUSIONS: Regardless of clip detachment, the OTSC can be effective in long-term.

BACKGROUND: Endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ESTD) has recently been an effective procedure for resecting large early esophageal neoplasm. However, excessive dissection beyond the distal limit may occur because the prepared distal end often cannot be distinguished through the tunnel. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of a novel crystal violet navigation (CVN) for identifying the distal end. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In the observational case series study, all 22 patients who underwent esophageal ESTD using the CVN were included. When setting the distal end, the distal incision line was dyed purple using a crystal violet solution. The rates of purple color identified via the tunnel, successful tunnel penetration without extra dissection, en bloc and curative resection, procedure time for ESTD and CVN, and procedure-associated complications were evaluated. RESULTS: The rates of purple color and successful tunnel penetration were both 100%. En bloc and curative resection were 100%, and 86%, respectively. The mean total procedure time was 103.9 ± 46.2 (mean ± SD) minutes, while the mean time for the CVN was 14.1 ± 3.44 s. No complications were observed. CONCLUSIONS: The simple CVN method can be a navigation tool for identifying the distal end during the ESTD procedure.

A man in his thirties was admitted to the hospital because of upper abdominal pain. Computed tomography showed intussusception in the ascending and transverse colon. After spontaneous discontinuation, endoscopy revealed a 25-mm 0-I tumor in the ileum. An emergency operation was performed the next day due to intussusception recurrence. The tumor was hyperplastic intestinal epithelium with dendritic smooth muscle fascicles and partly cancerous. The patient had no clinical features of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with Peutz-Jeghers type polyps based on pathological findings. This case is considered to be a rare case of intussusception in the transverse colon due to Peutz-Jeghers type polyp with canceration.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocarcinogenesis is not necessarily associated with the liver fibrotic stage and is occasionally seen at early fibrotic stages. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are essentially 18- to 22-nucleotide-long endogenous noncoding RNAs. Aberrant miRNA expression is a common feature of various human cancers. The aberrant expression of specific miRNAs has been shown in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissue compared with nontumor tissue. Thus, we examined targetable miRNAs as a potential new biomarker related to the high risk of HBV-related hepatocarcinogenesis, toward the prevention of cancer-related deaths. HCC tissue samples from 29 patients who underwent hepatectomy at our hospital in 2002-2013 were obtained. We extracted the total RNA and analyzed it by microRNA array, real-time RT-PCR, and three comparisons: 1) HBV-related HCC and adjacent nontumor tissue, 2) HCV-related HCC and adjacent nontumor tissue, and 3) non-HBV-, non-HCV-related HCC and adjacent nontumor tissue. We also performed a functional analysis of miRNAs specific for HBV-related HCC by using HBV-positive HCC cell lines. MiR-210-3p expression was significantly increased only in the HBV-related HCC tissue samples. MiR-210-3p expression was upregulated, and the levels of its target genes were reduced in the HBV-positive HCC cells. The inhibition of miR-210-3p enhanced its target gene expression in the HBV-positive HCC cells. In addition, miR-210-3p regulated the HBx expression in HBV-infected Huh7/NTCP cells. The enhanced expression of miR-210-3p was detected specifically in HBV-related HCC and regulated various target genes, including HBx in the HBV-positive HCC cells. MiR-210-3p might, thus, be a new biomarker for the risk of HBV-related HCC.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Our present study demonstrated that miR-210-3p is the only microRNA with enhanced expression in HBV-related HCC, and the enhanced expression of miR-210-3p upregulates HBx expression. Therefore, miR-210-3p might be a pivotal biomarker of HBV-related hepatocarcinogenesis, and the inhibition of miR-210-3p could prevent inducing hepatocarcinogenesis related to HBV infection.

Gallbladder cancer is the most common biliary tract cancer with poor prognosis and wide variation in incidence rates worldwide, being very high in some countries in Latin America and Asia. Treatment of type 2 diabetes with metformin causes a reduction in the incidence of cancer. Till date, there are no reports on the anti-tumor effects of metformin in gall bladder cancer. Therefore, this study evaluated the effects of metformin on the proliferation of human gallbladder adenocarcinoma cells in vitro and in vivo, as well as explored the microRNAs associated with the anti-tumor effects of metformin. Metformin inhibited the proliferation in gallbladder adenocarcinoma cell lines NOZ, TGBC14TKB, and TGBC24TKB, and blocked the G0 to G1 transition in the cell cycle. This was accompanied by strong reduction in the expression of G1 cyclins, especially cyclin D1 and its catalytic subunits including cyclin-dependent kinase 4, and in retinoblastoma protein phosphorylation. In addition, metformin reduced the phosphorylation of receptor tyrosine kinases, especially Tie-2, ALK, PYK, EphA4, and EphA10, as well as angiogenesis-related proteins, including RANTES, TGF-ß, and TIMP-1. Moreover, metformin also markedly altered microRNA expression profile leading to an anti-tumor effect. Treatment of athymic nude mice bearing xenograft tumors with metformin inhibited tumor growth. These results suggest that metformin may be used clinically for the treatment of gallbladder adenocarcinoma.

Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is the most common primary esophageal malignancy. Telmisartan, an angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor blocker (ARB) and a widely used antihypertensive, has been shown to inhibit proliferation of various cancer types. This study evaluated the effects of telmisartan on human ESCC cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo and sought to identify the microRNAs (miRNAs) involved in these antitumor effects. We examined the effects of telmisartan on three human ESCC cell lines (KYSE150, KYSE180, and KYSE850). Telmisartan inhibited proliferation of these three cell lines by inducing S-phase arrest, which was accompanied by decreased expression of cyclin A2, cyclin-dependent kinase 2, and other cell cycle-related proteins. Additionally, telmisartan reduced levels of phosphorylated ErbB3 and thrombospondin-1 in KYSE180 cells. Furthermore, expression of miRNAs was remarkably altered by telmisartan in vitro. Telmisartan also inhibited tumor growth in vivo in a xenograft mouse model. In conclusion, telmisartan inhibited cell proliferation and tumor growth in ESCC cells by inducing cell-cycle arrest.

Galectin-9 (Gal-9) enhances tumor immunity mediated by T cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells. Its expression level in various cancers correlates with prognosis. Furthermore, Gal-9 directly induces apoptosis in various cancers; however, its mechanism of action and bioactivity has not been clarified. We evaluated Gal-9 antitumor effect against esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) to analyze the dynamics of apoptosis-related molecules, elucidate its mechanism of action, and identify relevant changes in miRNA expressions. KYSE-150 and KYSE-180 cells were treated with Gal-9 and their proliferation was evaluated. Gal-9 inhibited cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner. The xenograft mouse model established with KYSE-150 cells was administered with Gal-9 and significant suppression in the tumor growth observed. Gal-9 treatment of KYSE-150 cells increased the number of Annexin V-positive cells, activation of caspase-3, and collapse of mitochondrial potential, indicating apoptosis induction. c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38) phosphorylation were activated and could be involved in apoptosis. Therefore, Gal-9 induces mitochondria-mediated apoptosis of ESCC and inhibits cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo with JNK and p38 activation.

BACKGROUND: Comparative studies on wound surface treatments after endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) of 10- to 20-mm colorectal polyps have not been reported. We conducted a prospective trial of postoperative hemorrhage prevention measures after EMR of such polyps. METHODS: Of 138 patients (397 polyps) who had undergone EMR, 62 patients (148 polyps) with 10- to 20-mm colorectal polyps were enrolled. Using the sealed envelope method, the subjects were randomly assigned to either a snare cauterization (75 polyps) or clip closure group (73 polyps). The primary assessment item was the wound surface treatment time (from immediately after polyp resection to wound surface treatment completion). The secondary assessment items were the incidence of delayed bleeding, perforation incidence 1-7 days after EMR, and difference in medical costs between the groups (University Hospital Medical Information Network: No. 000013473). RESULTS: The time required for wound surface treatment completion was 3.26 ± 1.57 min in the snare cauterization group and 12.7 ± 2.92 min in the clip closure group, thus demonstrating a significant difference (P = 0.0001). Delayed bleeding was observed in two patients in the clip group, but was not observed in the snare cauterization group (P = 0.098). The clip group required the use of 720 clips that cost \523,410, US $5,163.50, or

BACKGROUND: The use of a retroflexed view exposes the entire tumor surface, which is obscured in the forward view, and contributes to complete tumor resection when combined with forward views. However, the efficacy and safety of using the retroflexed view for colorectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) are poorly understood. METHODS: In this study, we assessed the efficacy and safety of the retroflexed view in colorectal ESD. From April 2009 to December 2013, 130 colorectal tumors were examined in 128 patients treated with ESD. A total of 119 patients with a mean tumor size of 27.2 mm were enrolled in the study, and these patients were assigned to undergo colorectal ESD with or without a retroflexed view. RESULTS: The use of retroflexion was successful in 84.2% of patients. There were no perforations in the study and no complications related to the use of retroflexed views. The mean procedure time was 103.6 ± 55.8 min in the retroflexed group, as compared with 108.0 ± 66.5 min in the forward view group. The mean procedure time for resecting tumors >40 mm was significantly shorter in the retroflexed group relative to the forward group. Additionally, the mean dissection speed per unit area was significantly faster in the retroflexed group, as compared with the forward group. CONCLUSIONS: Retroflexed views can be used to remove lesions >40 mm and shorten procedure times. Retroflexion may also contribute to an improved en bloc resection rate.
