As in other tissues, these polymorphonuclear phagocytes are involved in the intestinal inflammatory response, on the one hand, contributing to the activation and recruitment of other immune cells, but on the other hand, facilitating intestinal mucosa repair by releasing mediators that aid in the resolution of inflammation. Even though these responses are helpful in physiological conditions, excessive recruitment of activated neutrophils in the gut correlates with increased mucosal damage and severe symptoms in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and pre-clinical models of colitis. Thus, there is growing interest in controlling their biology to generate novel therapeutic approaches capable of reducing exacerbated intestinal inflammation. However, the beneficial and harmful effects of neutrophils on intestinal inflammation are still controversial. With this review, we summarise and discuss the most updated literature showing how neutrophils (and neutrophil extracellular traps) contribute to developing and resolving intestinal inflammation and their putative use as therapeutic targets.","PeriodicalId":73131,"journal":{"name":"Gastrointestinal disorders (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44243944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Expert guidelines now recommend regular objective assessments as part of a treat-to-target approach. Intestinal ultrasound provides a noninvasive, patient-friendly modality for assessing Crohn’s disease without the risk of radiation exposure and does not require fasting or bowel preparation. Enhancement techniques, including oral and intravenous contrast, can improve disease-activity and complication detection. Due to its acceptability, intestinal ultrasound can be performed frequently, allowing for closer disease-activity monitoring and treatment adjustments. There have been significant advances in the utility of intestinal ultrasound; particularly for assessing disease activity during pregnancy and fibrosis detection utilising elastography. This review provides a comprehensive overview of performing intestinal ultrasound, the diagnostic accuracy, role in disease-activity monitoring, and recent advances in utilising ultrasound for the assessment of luminal Crohn’s disease.","PeriodicalId":73131,"journal":{"name":"Gastrointestinal disorders (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42692398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: 114 children were enrolled in the study: 43 in food neophobia group (FNG), 21 In the control group (CG) and 50 in prospective group (PG). All patients were assessed with the child food neophobia scale (CFNS), underwent an oral 6-propylthiouracil (6-PROP) test, buccal swab for bitter-taste genotyping, anthropometric measurements, and were tested for serum levels of leptin, adiponectin, insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1), ghrelin, and neuropeptide Y (NPY), and complete blood count (CBC); measurements were taken from a blood sample after 4 h fasting. Results: Subjects from FNG were more often hypersensitive to bitter taste (6-PROP) than CG (p = 0.001). There was no correlation between the result of genetic analysis and CFNS (p = 0.197), nor the body mass index (BMI) at the age of 18–36 months (p = 0.946) found. Correlation between 6-PRO perception and genotype have not been confirmed (p = 0.064). The score of CFNS was positively related to the serum level of NPY (p = 0.03). BMI percentile was negatively related to serum level of NPY (p = 0.03), but positively related to leptin serum level (p = 0.027). Conclusions: Bitter taste sensitivity to 6-PROP plays an important role in the development of the CFN, but correlation between 6-PROP perception and genotype have not been confirmed. Children with food neophobia due to elevated serum NPY level should be constantly monitored in order to control the nutritional status at a later age.","PeriodicalId":73131,"journal":{"name":"Gastrointestinal disorders (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48883076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many centers in Newfoundland lack the resources to support the home infusion program required for FOLFOX, leaving CAPOX as the sole treatment option. This study aimed to review if Newfoundland patients receiving CAPOX experience greater treatment-induced toxicities. Methods: A multicenter retrospective cohort study of 93 Stage III CRC patients. The frequency and severity of toxicities, healthcare resource utilization, and treatment completion rates were compared between the two treatment options. Results: Grade 3 diarrhea and grade 1 or 2 nausea/vomiting were more common in CAPOX compared to FOLFOX-treated patients (26.9% versus 2.99%, p = 0.002; 61.5% versus 31.8%; p = 0.048, respectively). Grade 1 or 2 mucositis was more common with FOLFOX (35.8% versus 3.9%, p = 0.002). CAPOX was associated with higher rates of severe toxicity (53.9% versus 25.4%, p = 0.009), while rates of grade 1 and 2 toxicities were not significantly different between groups. CAPOX-treated patients were greater than twice as likely to require emergency department treatment secondary to toxicity (mean 0.692 visits per patient versus 0.313 in FOLFOX patients, p < 0.001) and the proportion of patients that were hospitalized secondary to CAPOX toxicity was greater. Significantly more FOLFOX patients were able to finish their prescribed treatment plans compared to CAPOX patients (89.5% versus 53.8%; p < 0.001). Conclusions: Compared to FOLFOX-treated patients, CAPOX patients are more likely to experience toxicities of greater severity, require emergency services secondary to treatment-related toxicity, and to discontinue therapy. This reflects a reduced standard of care that may decrease patient safety and quality of life.","PeriodicalId":73131,"journal":{"name":"Gastrointestinal disorders (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46263185","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accuracy and rapidity of results are fundamental for RUTs. The aim of the study is to prospectively evaluate the sensitivity, specificity and time to positivity of a new-generation ultra-rapid urease test (iNatal duo test) for Hp detection and compare the results with other available RUTs [CLO Test (Campylobacter-Like Organism Test), CP Test (Campylobacter pylori Test) and Pronto Dry]. Gastric biopsies were taken in consecutive patients undergoing upper endoscopy: two in the antrum and two in the body for histology, and one in the antrum and one in the body for each RUT. RUTs were read at 1, 5, 15, 30 and 60 min, 3 h and 24 h after biopsy insertion into the reagent. Histology was considered as “gold standard”. The performance of the tests was evaluated in patients not taking proton pump inhibitors (PPI) (n = 924) by calculation of sensitivity, specificity and positive and negative predictive value. Agreement rate (κ) for every RUT and histology was calculated and compared. The performance of the iNatal duo test was also tested in a subgroup of patients taking PPI (n = 198). Hp was positive in 225/924 patients (24.3%) not taking PPIs and in 56/198 (28.3%) who were taking PPIs. The iNatal duo test was more sensitive than the other RUTs for detecting Hp at every time point. The sensitivity at 5 min was 96.2% in patients not taking PPIs and 92.2% in patients taking PPIs. κ with histology was higher for the iNatal duo test than any other RUT (at 30 min: iNatal duo 0.99, CLO 0.60, CP 0.78, Pronto 0.85, at 15 min: iNatal duo 0.99, CLO 0.46, CP 0.63, Pronto 0.71). In a prospective study, the iNatal duo test demonstrated high accuracy and rapidity for Hp detection, both in patients with and without PPI therapy. This new generation of ultra-rapid urease test could be useful for the rapid and correct management of patients undergoing upper GI endoscopy for suspected Hp infection.","PeriodicalId":73131,"journal":{"name":"Gastrointestinal disorders (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45734370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identifying novel biomarkers to facilitate earlier diagnosis is imperative in enhancing oncological outcomes. We aimed to create miRNA oncogenic signature to aid CRC diagnosis. Methods: Tumour and tumour-associated normal (TAN) were extracted from 74 patients during surgery for CRC. RNA was isolated and target miRNAs were quantified using real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction. Regression analyses were performed in order to identify miRNA targets capable of differentiating CRC from TAN and compared with two endogenous controls (miR-16 and miR-345) in each sample. Areas under the curve (AUCs) in Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analyses were determined. Results: MiR-21 (β-coefficient:3.661, SE:1.720, p = 0.033), miR-31 (β-coefficient:2.783, SE:0.918, p = 0.002), and miR-150 (β-coefficient:−4.404, SE:0.526, p = 0.004) expression profiles differentiated CRC from TAN. In multivariable analyses, increased miR-31 (β-coefficient:2.431, SE:0.715, p < 0.001) and reduced miR-150 (β-coefficient:−4.620, SE:1.319, p < 0.001) independently differentiated CRC from TAN. The highest AUC generated for miR-21, miR-31, and miR-150 in an oncogenic expression assay was 83.0% (95%CI: 61.7–100.0, p < 0.001). In the circulation of 34 independent CRC patients and 5 controls, the mean expression of miR-21 (p = 0.001), miR-31 (p = 0.001), and miR-150 (p < 0.001) differentiated CRC from controls; however, the median expression of miR-21 (p = 0.476), miR-31 (p = 0.933), and miR-150 (p = 0.148) failed to differentiate these groups.

Here, we aimed to investigate the predictive power of DDR gene mutations and the tumor mutational load (TML) for survival outcomes in a cohort of 22 rectal cancer patients who received pre-operative neoadjuvant therapy. Univariate analysis revealed that TML-high and TP53 mutations were significantly associated with worse overall survival (OS) with TML-high retaining significance in multivariate analyses. Kaplan–Meier survival analyses further showed TML-high was associated with worse disease-free (p = 0.036) and OS (p = 0.024) results in our patient cohort. A total of 53 somatic mutations were identified in 22 samples with eight (36%) containing mutations in DDR genes, including ATM, ATR, CHEK2, MRE11A, RAD50, NBN, ERCC2 and TP53. TP53 was the most frequently mutated gene, and TP53 mutations were significantly associated with worse OS (p = 0.023) in Kaplan–Meier survival analyses. Thus, our data indicate that TML and TP53 mutations have prognostic value for rectal cancer patients and may be important independent biomarkers for patient management.
