Background and AimAlthough rapid on‐site cytological evaluation (ROSE) for endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)‐guided tissue acquisition (EUS‐TA) may increase diagnostic yield, it is not widely available. Macroscopic on‐site evaluation (MOSE) is an alternative modality although it is not standardized for EUS‐guided fine‐needle biopsy (FNB). We evaluated diagnostic performance of MOSE compared with conventional technique of EUS‐TA using core biopsy needle.MethodsConsecutive patients undergoing EUS‐FNA for solid lesions were randomized to MOSE or conventional arms. The primary and secondary outcome measures were diagnostic accuracy, diagnostic yield, sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and the number of passes, respectively. The optimum parameters for macroscopic visible core (MVC, i.e., length, number) by MOSE to achieve accurate diagnosis were evaluated.ResultsNinety‐six patients (48 conventional and 48 MOSE) were enrolled. Mean lesion size was larger in MOSE arm (32.67 ± 7.22 vs 29.31 ± 6.98 mm, P = 0.023). Diagnostic accuracy (95.8% vs 91.6%), diagnostic yield (97.9% vs 95.8%), procedure duration, and adverse events of the two methods were similar. Median number of passes with MOSE was less (2 vs 3 P = 0.000). Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve showed that with MOSE, obtaining a total MVC length of 11.5 mm had 93.3% sensitivity, and 2.5 MVC cores (each 4 mm) had 86.7% sensitivity for malignancy diagnosis.ConclusionsEUS‐FNB with MOSE, a simple reliable technique, can achieve a high and comparable diagnostic accuracy with lesser number of passes. Obtaining longer length and greater number of MVC increase the sensitivity to diagnose malignancy with MOSE.
背景和目的虽然在内窥镜超声(EUS)引导下进行组织采集(EUS-TA)的现场快速细胞学评估(ROSE)可提高诊断率,但这种方法尚未普及。显微镜下现场评估(MOSE)是一种可供选择的方法,但它还没有被标准化用于 EUS 引导下的细针活检(FNB)。我们评估了 MOSE 与使用核心活检针进行 EUS-TA 的传统技术相比的诊断性能。主要和次要结果指标分别为诊断准确性、诊断率、敏感性、特异性、阳性和阴性预测值以及通过次数。还评估了通过 MOSE 获得准确诊断的宏观可见核心(MVC,即长度和数量)的最佳参数。MOSE臂的平均病灶大小更大(32.67 ± 7.22 vs 29.31 ± 6.98 mm,P = 0.023)。两种方法的诊断准确率(95.8% vs 91.6%)、诊断率(97.9% vs 95.8%)、手术时间和不良反应相似。MOSE 的中位通过次数较少(2 vs 3 P = 0.000)。接收器操作特征曲线下面积显示,使用 MOSE,获得 11.5 毫米的 MVC 总长度对恶性肿瘤诊断的敏感性为 93.3%,2.5 个 MVC 核心(每个 4 毫米)对恶性肿瘤诊断的敏感性为 86.7%。获得更长的MVC和更多的MVC可提高MOSE诊断恶性肿瘤的灵敏度。

Background and AimSelenium, an essential micronutrient for humans, has been shown to be protective against ulcerative colitis (UC), but the exact mechanism remains unclear. The role of selenium, protecting against ferroptosis of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) in colitis, was investigated in this current study.MethodsSerum selenium level and ferroptosis‐related gene expression in the colonic mucosa were measured in UC patients and healthy controls. The effects of sodium selenite supplementation on experimental colitis were investigated in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)‐treated mice. The influence of sodium selenite on IEC ferroptosis was evaluated through assessing cell death rate, intracellular ferrous iron content, lipid reactive oxygen species level, and mitochondrial membrane damage of DSS‐treated Caco‐2 cells. Moreover, glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and acyl‐CoA synthetase long‐chain family member 4, ferroptosis‐related genes, were detected in Caco‐2 cells and mouse intestines.ResultsSerum selenium was decreased in UC patients in comparison with healthy individuals. Additionally, serum selenium level was negatively correlated with disease activity and was associated with clinical inflammation and nutrition indicators. The expression of GPX4 in the mucosa of UC was positively correlated with serum selenium level. The in vivo experiments showed that selenium treatment ameliorated DSS‐induced colitis and inhibited ferroptosis in IECs. The in vitro results suggested that selenium supplementation inhibited DSS‐induced ferroptosis in Caco‐2 cells. GPX4 was upregulated after selenium supplementation both in vivo and in vitro.ConclusionsSerum selenium level was associated with IEC ferroptosis in UC patients. Selenium supplementation alleviates DSS‐induced colitis and inhibits ferroptosis in IECs by upregulating the expression of GPX4.

Background and AimCurrently, hepatitis B virus‐related acute liver failure (HBV‐ALF) has limited treatment options. Studies have shown that histone lactylation plays a role in the progression of liver‐related diseases. Therefore, it is essential to explore lactylation‐related gene (LRGs) biomarkers in HBV‐ALF to provide new information for the treatment of HBV‐ALF.MethodsTwo HBV‐ALF‐related datasets (GSE38941 and GSE14668) and 65 LRGs were used. First, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were derived from differential expression analysis, the key module genes from weighted gene co‐expression network analysis; and LRGs were used to intersect to obtain the candidate genes. Subsequently, the feature genes obtained from least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis and support vector machine analysis were intersected to obtain the candidate key genes. Among them, genes with consistent and significant expression trends in both GSE38941 and GSE14668 were used as biomarkers. Subsequently, biomarkers were analyzed for functional enrichment, immune infiltration, and sensitive drug prediction.ResultsIn this study, five candidate genes (PIGM, PIGA, EGR1, PIGK, and PIGL) were identified by intersecting 6461 DEGs and 2496 key module genes with 65 LRGs. We then screened four candidate key genes from the machine learning algorithm, among which PIGM and PIGA were considered biomarkers in HBV‐ALF. Moreover, the results of enrichment analysis showed that the significant enrichment signaling pathways for biomarkers included allograft rejection and valine, leucine, and isoleucine degradation. Thereafter, 11 immune cells differed significantly between groups, with resting memory CD4+ T cells having the strongest positive correlation with biomarkers. Methylphenidate hydrochloride is a potential therapeutic drug for PIGM.ConclusionTwo genes, PIGM and PIGA, were identified as biomarkers related to LRGs in HBV‐ALF, providing a basis for understanding HBV‐ALF pathogenesis.

Background and AimPopulation‐based studies comparing clinical characteristics and survival disparities between patients with small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) and small bowel neuroendocrine tumors (SBNETs) in the United States are limited.MethodsData for patients with SBA or SBNETs, obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database for the years between 2000 and 2018 were analyzed.ResultsBetween 2000 and 2018, the age‐adjusted incidence of SBA experienced a marginal increase whereas SBNETs demonstrated a significant increase, emerging as the predominant subtype of small bowel cancer (SBC). Diagnoses peaked at ages 65–69 years for SBA and 60–64 years for SBNETs, with the latter exhibiting a heightened age‐specific incidence and maintaining equilibrium in gender distribution. Clinicopathologic disparities revealed SBA's duodenal predilection, larger tumor size, and advanced stages, contrasting with SBNETs' ileal predilection, early‐stage presentation, and superior outcomes. SBNETs patients underwent surgery more frequently but received less chemotherapy and radiation than SBA patients. Factors intricately correlated with a diagnosis of SBNETs included female gender, White race, advanced age, marital status, recent diagnoses, superior tumor differentiation, smaller size, distal location, and early‐stage presentation. Survival analysis unveiled a remarkable 79% reduction in the mortality risk for SBNETs compared with SBA. Subgroup analysis further confirmed the consistently favorable survival advantages of SBNETs, highlighting the clinical relevance of histological classification in prognostication.ConclusionCompared with SBA, SBNETs exhibited distinctive clinicopathological features characterized by a higher inclination toward low‐grade and early‐stage manifestations, thereby contributing to superior survival outcomes.

结论:在我们的 IBD 群体中,NUDT15 变体的流行率明显高于之前在澳大利亚 IBD 群体中报道的流行率(4),这可能是由于之前研究的队列中欧洲血统占多数。在本研究中,一半的 NUDT15 等位基因携带者出生在澳大利亚,这很可能是祖先从高风险国家移民而来。这些结果表明,鉴于澳大利亚人口的多元文化特性,仅靠 TPMT 检测不足以识别硫嘌呤相关危害的高危人群。 参考文献 1.

Biopsies from various segments of the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract were collected. Microbial composition was assessed via 16S rRNA gene amplicon analysis and the bacterial load of the mucosal biopsies were assessed via qPCR. The MAM was examined in the context of disease status, PPI usage, the severity of gastrointestinal symptoms, and the symptom response to a standardized nutrient challenge (SNC).</p><p><b><i>Results:</i></b> Microbial communities of the MAM in the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract are different. Compared to controls, IBD patients were characterised by relative and absolute depletion of numerous butyrate and/or propionate producing genera, with the largest differentiation being the depletion of <i>Faecalibacterium</i> in the lower GI tract of CD patients. PPI users had enrichment of <i>Faecalibacterium</i>in the lower GI tract. The severity of gastrointestinal symptoms, as well as the symptom response to the SNC, were significantly associated with MAM composition in the GI tract.</p><p><b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> The absolute and relative composition of the MAM is variable across different segments of the GI tract and is different in patients with IBD and controls.
