The Italian validation of the Montreal Global definition and classification of gastroesophageal reflux disease

2009

Recently, a Global definition and a classification of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) were developed by Montreal Consensus Group, composed of international expert gastroenterologists. Guidelines and consensus documents are, however, infrequently accepted and adopted at a local level. The aim of this study was to measure the acceptance of Montreal Global definition of GERD consensus document by specialists in a single country (Italy) and to measure the linguistic, scientific, and practical differences between the international consensus document and the Italian version.A 2-day meeting was held in June 2007 in Rome, Italy, attended by 147 Italian physicians who were experts in gastroen…

Evolution of the immune landscape during progression of pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms to invasive cancer

2020

ABSTRACT: Background: Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are precursor lesions of pancreatic cancer, which is characterized by an immunosuppressive microenvironment. Yet, the spatial distribution of the immune infiltrate and how it changes during IPMN progression is just beginning to be understood. Methods: We obtained tissue samples from patients who underwent pancreatic surgery for IPMN, and performed comprehensive immunohistochemical analyses to investigate the clinical significance, composition and spatial organization of the immune microenvironment during progression of IPMNs. Survival analysis of pancreatic cancer patients was stratified by tumour infiltrating immune cel…

Células del cuello uterino con atipias que no descartan una lesión de alto grado (ASC-H) con premalignidad

2019

Introducción: la presencia de células escamosas con atipias que no descartan una lesión intraepitelial escamosa de alto grado (ASC-H) es significativa, pues cerca de 50% podrían corresponder a una lesión premaligna del cérvix uterino. Objetivo: describir las alteraciones citomorfológicas más frecuentes en los extendidos citológicos categorizados como células escamosas con atipias que no descartan una lesión intraepitelial escamosa de alto grado (ASC-H), con existencia de lesión clínicamente significativa en el resultado histopatológico. Metodología: estudio retrospectivo en el laboratorio de citología de la Facultad de Farmacia y Bioanálisis, Universidad de Los Andes y Clínica de Prevención…

The matrix metalloproteinase and insulin-like growth factor system in oral cancer : a prospective clinical study

2017

Aim The absence of reliable single serum biomarkers for oral premalignant lesion (OPL) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) limits early diagnosis, monitoring of advanced disease, and prediction of prognosis. Methods In this prospective study, serum levels of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, MMP-3, MMP-13, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1, and IGF-binding protein (IGFBP)-3 were measured in 81 untreated OSCC patients, 49 healthy subjects, and 75 individuals with OPLs, and correlated with clinicopathological parameters. Results Serum levels of MMP-3 were significantly higher in OSCC patients compared to healthy subjects (p=0.004). Mean IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 levels in OSCC patients were sign…
