Common patient positioning in gastrointestinal endoscopy
Gastrointestinal endoscopic procedure is routinely utilized for diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal abnormalities. The optimal positioning for this procedure is to offer the best operative access while minimizing potential risk to the patient. Changing the patient's position could improve the probabilities of successful endoscopy. However, each position carries some degrees of risk and this is applied in each procedure. Commonly approved positions include lateral, prone and supine. This article addresses the common patient positions used for gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures.
Ocular Manifestation of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis
Gardner Syndrome is a phenotypic variant of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) characterized by extracolonic manifestations including pigmented ocular fundus lesions with malignant polyps in the large intestine. We present the case of a 41-year-old female with FAP, who presented with numerous congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium ocular lesions.
Efbemalenograstim alfa, a long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, a novel dimeric G-CSF Fc fusion protein for reducing the risk of febrile neutropenia following chemotherapy
Chemotherapy?induced neutropenia (CIN) can cause life-threatening complications such as febrile neutropenia (FN) or other infections. Patients who develop FN often require prolonged hospitalizations and treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics.
Colonic bleeding induced by a solitary juvenile polyp
A 30-year-old woman presented with 6-month history of blood-stained stools. The patient denied a family history of colon cancer. Examination was remarkable for blood-streaked stool.
DKK2 mediated immunosuppressive pathway and angiogenesis for colon cancer progression
Available targeted therapies for colorectal cancer (CRC) are limited. Immunotherapy offers new options for cancer treatment, but most of CRC are refractory to current immune checkpoint blockade, which indicates the possible presence of yet uncharacterized immune-suppressive mechanisms. Herein we report that high levels of Dickkopf-related protein 2 (DKK2) are expressed in human CRC tumors, and the DKK2 blockade caused stronger activation of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells in ex vivo culture. A correlation of high DKK2 expression
