| 1 | Magnetic resonance elastography is accurate in detecting advanced fibrosis in autoimmune hepatitis显示文摘To assess the value of magnetic resonance elastography(MRE) in detecting advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis in autoimmune hepatitis(AIH).METHODS In this retrospective study, 36 patients(19 treated and 17 untreated) with histologically confirmed AIH and liver biopsy performed within 3 mo of MRE were identified at a tertiary care referral center. Liver stiffness(LS) with MRE was calculated by a radiologist, and inflammation grade and fibrosis stage in liver biopsy was assessed by a pathologist in a blinded fashion. Two radiologistsevaluated morphological features of cirrhosis on conventional magnetic resonance imaging(MRI). Accuracy of MRE was compared to laboratory markers and MRI for detection of advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis.RESULTS Liver fibrosis stages of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 were present in 4, 6, 7, 6 and 13 patients respectively. There were no significant differences in distribution of fibrosis stage and inflammation grade between treated and untreated patient groups. LS with MRE demonstrated stronger correlation with liver fibrosis stage in comparison to laboratory markers for chronic liver disease(r = 0.88 vs-0.48-0.70). A trend of decreased mean LS in treated patients compared to untreated patients was observed(3.7 k Pa vs 3.84 k Pa) but was not statistically significant. MRE had an accuracy/sensitivity/specificity/positive predictive value/negative predictive value of 0.97/90%/100%/100%/90% and 0.98/92.3%/96%/92.3%/96% for detection of advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis, respectively. The performance of MRE was significantly better than laboratory tests for detection of advanced fibrosis(0.97 vs 0.53-0.80, P < 0.01), and cirrhosis(0.98 vs 0.58-0.80, P < 0.01) and better than conventional MRI for diagnosis of cirrhosis(0.98 vs 0.78, P = 0.002).CONCLUSION MRE is a promising modality for detection of advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis in patients with AIH with superior diagnostic accuracy compared to laboratory assessment and MRI. | Jin Wang Neera Malik Meng Yin Thomas C Smyrk Albert J Czaja Richard L Ehman Sudhakar K Venkatesh | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,5: | 15 |
| 2 | Emerging roles of the intestine in control of cholesterol metabolism显示文摘The liver is considered the major “control center” for maintenance of whole body cholesterol homeostasis. This organ is the main site for de novo cholesterol synthesis, clears cholesterol-containing chylomicron remnants and low density lipoprotein particles from plasma and is the major contributor to high density lipoprotein (HDL; good cholesterol) formation. The liver has a central position in the classical definition of the reverse cholesterol transport pathway by taking up periphery-derived cholesterol from lipoprotein particles followed by conversion into bile acids or its direct secretion into bile for eventual removal via the feces. During the past couple of years, however, an additional important role of the intestine in maintenance of cholesterol homeostasis and regulation of plasma cholesterol levels has become apparent. Firstly, molecular mechanisms of cholesterol absorption have been elucidated and novel pharmacological compounds have been identified that interfere with the process and positively impact plasma cholesterol levels. Secondly, it is now evident that the intestine itself contributes to fecal neutral sterol loss as a cholesterol-secreting organ. Finally, very recent work has unequivocally demonstrated that the intestine contributes significantly to plasma HDL cholesterol levels. Thus, the intestine is a potential target for novel anti-atherosclerotic treatment strategies that, in addition to interference with cholesterol absorption, modulate direct cholesterol excretion and plasma HDL cholesterol levels. | Janine K Kruit Albert K Groen Theo J van Berkel Folkert Kuipers | 2006 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,40: | 4 |
| 3 | Performance of the Montreal classification for inflammatory bowel diseases显示文摘AIM:To validate the Montreal classification system for Crohn's disease(CD) and ulcerative colitis(UC) within the Netherlands.METHODS:A selection of 20 de-identified medical records with an appropriate representation of the inflammatory bowel disease(IBD) sub phenotypes were scored by 30 observers with different professions(gastroenterologist specialist in IBD,gastroenterologist in training and IBD-nurses) and experience level with IBD patient care.Patients were classified according to the Montreal classification.In addition,participants were asked to score extra-intestinal manifestations(EIM) and disease severity in CD based on their clinical judgment.The inter-observer agreement was calculated by percentages of correct answers(answers identical to the 'expert evaluation') and Fleiss-kappa(k).Kappa cutoffs:< 0.4-poor; 0.41-0.6-moderate; 0.61-0.8-good; > 0.8 excellent.RESULTS:The inter-observer agreement was excellent for diagnosis(k = 0.96),perianal disease(k = 0.92) and disease location in CD(k = 0.82) and good for age of onset(k = 0.67),upper gastrointestinal disease(k = 0.62),disease behaviour in CD(k = 0.79) and disease extent in UC(k = 0.65).Disease severity in UC was scored poor(k = 0.23).The additional items resulted in a good inter-observer agreement for EIM(k = 0.68) and a moderate agreement for disease severity in CD(k = 0.44).Percentages of correct answers over all Montreal items give a good reflection of the inter-observer agreement(> 80%),except for disease severity(48%-74%).IBD-nurses were significantly worse in scoring upper gastrointestinal disease in CD compared to gastroenterologists(P = 0.008) and gastroenterologists in training(P = 0.040).Observers with less than 10 years of experience were significantly better at scoring UC severity than observers with 10-20 years(P = 0.003) and more than 20 years(P = 0.003) of experience with IBD patient care.Observers with 10-20 years of experience with IBD patient care were significantly better at scoring upper gastrointestinal disease in CD than observers with less than 10 years(P = 0.007) and more than 20 years(P = 0.007) of experience with IBD patient care.CONCLUSION:We found a good to excellent interobserver agreement for all Montreal items except for disease severity in UC(poor). | Lieke M Spekhorst Marijn C Visschedijk Rudi Alberts Eleonora A Festen Egbert-Jan van der Wouden Gerard Dijkstra Rinse K Weersma | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,41: | 4 |

| 6 | Evaluation of mannitol effect in patients with acute hepatic failure and acute-on-chronic liver failure using conventional MRI,diffusion tensor imaging and in-vivo proton MR spectroscopy显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the effect of an intravenous bolus of mannitol in altering brain metabolites, brain water content, brain parenchyma volume, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume and clinical signs in controls and in patients with acute liver failure (ALF) and acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), by comparing changes in conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), in vivo proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (PMRS) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) before and after its infusion.METHODS: Five patients each with ALF and ACLF in grade 3 or 4 hepatic encephalopathy and with clinical signs of raised intracranial pressure were studied along with five healthy volunteers. After baseline MRI, an intravenous bolus of 20% mannitol solution was given over 10 min in controls as well as in patients with ALF and ACLF. Repeat MRI for the same position was acquired 30 min after completing the mannitol injection. RESULTS: No statistically significant difference was observed between controls and patients with ALF and ACLF in metabolite ratios, DTI metrics and brain volume or CSF volume following 45 min of mannitol infusion. There was no change in clinical status at the end of post-mannitol imaging. CONCLUSION: The osmotic effect of mannitol did not result in significant reduction of brain water content, alteration in metabolite ratios or any change in the clinical status of these patients during or within 45 min of mannitol infusion. | Vivek A Saraswat Sona Saksena Kavindra Nath Pranav Mandal Jitesh Singh M Albert Thomas Ramkishore S Rathore Rakesh K Gupta | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,26: | 2 |
