Can microbes and their components prevent growth failure caused by malnutrition?
Disposable Elevator Caps Reduce Microbial Contamination after ERCP
Is the Quantification of Interstitial Cells of Cajal in Gastric Biopsies in Patients with Gastroparesis Ready for Prime Time?
Onco-microbial community profiling identifies clinico-molecular and prognostic subtypes of colorectal cancer
Dysbiosis of gut microbiota is linked to the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, microbiota-based stratification of CRC tissue and how this relates to clinico-molecular characteristics and prognosis remains to be clarified. Continue reading
Molecular profile of MSH6-associated colorectal carcinomas shows distinct features from other Lynch syndrome-associated colorectal carcinomas
Single-cell Profiling of Tumor Immune Microenvironment Reveals Immune Irresponsiveness in Gastric Signet-ring Cell Carcinoma
Gastric cancer (GC) is a major cancer type characterized by high heterogeneity in both tumor cells and the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). One intractable GC subtype is gastric signet-ring cell carcinoma (GSRCC), which is associated with poor pro… Continue reading
A “two-in-one hit” model of shortcut carcinogenesis in MLH1 Lynch syndrome carriers
The efficacy of peroral endoscopic myotomy vs. pneumatic dilation as treatment for patients with achalasia suffering from persistent or recurrent symptoms after laparoscopic Heller myotomy. A RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL
For achalasia patients with persistent or recurrent symptoms after laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM), pneumatic dilation (PD) is the most frequently used treatment. Per-oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is increasingly being investigated as rescue therapy… Continue reading
BMPR2 as a novel predisposition gene for hereditary colorectal polyposis
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent tumours worldwide, with incidences (particularly in the context of early-onset cases) quickly increasing despite important prevention efforts, mainly in the form of population-wide screening programm… Continue reading
