Impact of interleukin‐28B polymorphism on HCV‐1 infected patients treated with response‐guided therapy
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 2 - Trang 25-32 - 2015
SummaryBackgroundSingle nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of interleukin‐28B
(IL28B) were associated with sustained virological response (SVR) in hepatitis C
virus genotype 1 (HCV‐1) infected patients treated with a standard 48‐week
regimen of peginterferon and ribavirin combination. Whether IL28B SNP genotype
would be the influential prognosticator for patients treated with
response‐guided therapy ...
Reticulocyte production index as a predictor of clinically significant anemia in chronic hepatitis C patients receiving pegylated interferon combination therapy
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 3 - Trang 18-23 - 2016
SummaryBackgroundThis work was conducted to study the relationship of
reticulocyte production index to clinically significant anemia in chronic
hepatitis C patients receiving pegylated interferon combination therapy.MethodsA
total of 69 chronic hepatitis C patients receiving pegylated interferon
combination therapy were included. Clinically significant anemia was defined as
a hemoglobin level of <...
Probable autoimmune hepatitis and systemic sclerosis complicated by reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome: An unusual association
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 3 - Trang 111-114 - 2016
SummarySystemic sclerosis is a multisystem autoimmune rheumatic disorder
characterized by fibrosis in the skin and internal organs but rarely with
hepatic or brain involvement. Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome
is characterized by a unique pattern of brain vasogenic edema in the setting of
neurotoxicity predominantly in the parietal and occipital regions. We report a
case of system...
Immunoglobulin G4‐related disease with recurrent obstructive jaundice
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 3 - Trang 28-30 - 2016
SummaryA 51‐year‐old man was referred to our clinic for recurrent obstructive
jaundice and underwent pylorus‐preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy for a
suspected malignancy. The pathology showed immunoglobulin G4 positive plasma
cell infiltrated at the pancreas and the gallbladder. We discuss the
cost‐effectiveness of serum immunoglobulin G4 level prior to arranging for a
pancreaticoduodenectomy, wh...
A rare presentation of clinically intractable hypertension: Pancreatic paraganglioma
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 3 - Trang 132-134 - 2016
SummaryParaganglioma is a rare extra‐adrenal pheochromocytoma which originates
from chromaffin cells within the ganglia of the sympathetic trunk and of the
celiac, renal, suprarenal, and hypogastric plexuses. Pancreatic paragangliomas
are rarer still. And even then, paragangliomas are mostly reported to be
nonfunctional. We report a case of a 64‐year‐old woman with underlying disease
of hypertensi...
Unexpected and unintentional fish bone ingestion causing acute abdomen and uncommon small intestinal perforation
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 3 - Trang 200-202 - 2016
AbstractPerforation of the mesenteric small bowel is an uncommon cause of acute
abdomen in the emergency department. Early diagnosis is difficult owing to
unspecific clinical presentations. The most common causes of perforation are
tumor, trauma, Crohn's disease, ischemia, and foreign body ingestion. Currently,
computed tomography (CT) is often the initial modality used to assess patients
with acu...
A case of massive lower gastrointestinal bleeding from a rectal Dieulafoy lesion
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 2 - Trang 108-110 - 2015
SummaryA Dieulafoy lesion is an uncommon and sometimes life‐threatening cause of
gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Typically, it presents as a tiny mucosal defect
with an exposed protruding artery with normal surrounding mucosa. An 84‐year‐old
woman developed sudden massive hematochezia and had an unstable hemodynamic
status. The source of bleeding was found to be an exposed vessel in the rectum
withou...
Ileal ulcers in a patient with Henoch‐Schönlein purpura
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 2 - Trang 145-148 - 2015
SummaryHenoch‐Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a systemic vasculitis characterized by
a classic tetrad of nonthrombocytopenic palpable purpura, arthritis,
gastrointestinal, and renal involvement. The most common gastrointestinal
complaint is abdominal pain. The characteristic endoscopic findings are ulcers
seen in the second portion of the duodenum. We present the case of a 45‐year‐old
man suffering fro...
Utility of balloon expulsion test in patients with constipation: Preliminary results in a single center
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 3 - Trang 181-186 - 2016
SummaryBackgroundPelvic floor dyssynergia can be a cause of idiopathic
constipation. Although pelvic floor dyssynergia can be diagnosed by rectal
balloon expulsion (BE) and anorectal manometry, the utility of BE in the
evaluation of constipation in clinical practice remains to be determined. To
this end, we examined the role of BE among different body positions in Taiwanese
people with constipatio...
Modified endoscopic mucosal resection of gastric heterotopic pancreas: Report of two cases
ADVANCES IN DIGESTIVE MEDICINE - Tập 1 - Trang 21-24 - 2014
SummaryHeterotopic pancreas is a congenital anomaly characterized by the
presence of ectopic pancreatic tissue far from the pancreas. The treatment of
heterotopic pancreas may include expectant observation, endoscopic resection, or
surgery. The aim of this study was to describe the technique of cap‐assisted
endoscopic mucosal resection for the management of heterotopic pancreas of the
stomach. Two...
