1Associations of lifestyle and diet with the risk of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in Singapore:a case–control study显示文摘Background: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) is a commonly diagnosed cancer in Southeast Asia. Many studies have examined the risk factors for NPC, yet the roles of some risk factors remain inconclusive. The purpose of this study was to examine associations between modifiable lifestyle factors and the risk of NPC in the Singaporean population.Methods: We conducted a case–control study in Singapore with 300 patients and 310 controls who were recruited between 2008 and 2012. Each control was selected and individually matched to each patient based on sex, ethnicity, and age(±5 years). A total of 290 pairs of cases and controls were matched successfully. We examined lifestyle factors such as tobacco smoking, alcohol drinking, various salted and preserved food consumption, and weaning practices.Results: After adjusting for covariates, multivariate analysis showed that those participants who were current smokers and had ever smoked tobacco had a higher risk of NPC than participants who had never smoked, with odds ratios(ORs) of 4.50(95% confidence interval [CI] 2.58–7.86; P < 0.001) and 2.52(95% CI 1.54–4.12; P < 0.001), respectively. Those who consumed salted vegetables at least once a week also showed a significantly increased risk of NPC than those who never or rarely consumed salted vegetables, with an OR of 4.18(95% CI 1.69–10.38; P = 0.002).Conclusion: Smoking(currently and ever-smoked) and consuming salted vegetables once a week or more were lifestyle risk factors for NPC, and changes of these factors for the better may reduce the risk of NPC.Sook Kwin Yong Tam Cam Ha Ming Chert Richard Yeo Valerie Gaborieau James D.McKay Joseph Wee 2017Chinese Journal of Cancer2017,36,2:12
2Focus on the gut-brain axis: multiple sclerosis, the intestinal barrier and the microbiome显示文摘The brain-gut axis serves as the bidirectional connection between the gut microbiome, the intestinal barrier and the immune system that might be relevant for the pathophysiology of inflammatory demyelinating diseases. People with multiple sclerosis have been shown to have an altered microbiome, increased intestinal permeability and changes in bile acid metabolism. Experimental evidence suggests that these changes can lead to profound alterations of peripheral and central nervous system immune regulation. Besides being of pathophysiological interest, the brain-gut axis could also open new avenues of therapeutic targets. Modification of the microbiome, the use of probiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation, supplementation with bile acids and intestinal barrier enhancers are all promising candidates. Hopefully, pre-clinical studies and clinical trials will soon yield significant results.Carlos R Camara-Lemarroy Luanne M Metz V Wee Yong 2018World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,37:6
3Escitalopram-induced liver injury: A case report and review of literature显示文摘BACKGROUND Depression is a growing public health problem that affects over 350 million people globally and accounts for approximately 7.5%of healthy years lost due to disability.Escitalopram,one of the first-line medications for the treatment of depression,is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and one of the most commonly prescribed antidepressant medications worldwide.Although thought to be generally safe and with minimal drug-drug interactions,we herein present an unusual case of cholestatic liver injury,likely secondary to escitalopram initiation.CASE SUMMARY A 56-year-old Chinese lady presented with fever and cholestatic liver injury two weeks after initiation of escitalopram for the treatment of psychotic depression.Physical examination was unremarkable.Further investigations,including a computed tomography scan of the abdomen and pelvis and tests for hepatitis A,B and C and for autoimmune liver disease were unyielding.Hence,a diagnosis of escitalopram-induced liver injury was made.Upon stopping escitalopram,repeat liver function tests showed downtrending liver enzymes with eventual normalization of serum aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase one-week post-discharge.CONCLUSION Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of escitalopram-induced liver injury when initiating depressed patients on antidepressant treatment.This requires extra vigilance as most patients may remain asymptomatic.Measurement of liver function tests could be considered after initiation of antidepressant treatment,especially in patients with pre-existing liver disease.Qin Xiang Ng Christl Suet Kwan Yong Wayren Loke Wee Song Yeo Alex Yu Sen Soh 2019World Journal of Hepatology2019,11,10:3
4Intracerebral haemorrhage: from clinical settings to animal models显示文摘Spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage(ICH)is a devastating type of stroke with high mortality and morbidity and for which no effective treatments are available to date.Much experimental and clinical research have been performed to explore its mechanisms regard the subsequent inflammatory cascade and to seek the potential therapeutic strategies.The aim of this review is to discuss insights from clinical settings that have led to the development of numerous animal models of ICH.Some of the current and future challenges for clinicians to understand ICH are also surveyed.Qian Bai Zhaofu Sheng Yang Liu Ruiyi Zhang Voon Wee Yong Mengzhou Xue 2020Stroke & Vascular Neurology2020,5,4:2
