Clinical Outcomes of Follow-Up Observation After Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Invading the Muscularis Mucosa Without Lymphovascular Involvement. Dig Dis Sci 2023; 68:3679-3687.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The therapeutic approach after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) diagnosed as pathological T1a-muscularis mucosa (pT1a-MM) without lymphovascular involvement (LVI) remains uncertain. We aimed to determine whether observation after ESD is acceptable for patients without LVI showing pT1a-MM cancer. METHODS We retrospectively registered 566 ESCC patients who were treated with ESD at ten institutions between January 2007 and December 2015. Of those, 447 cases showing pT1a-epithelium/lamina propria mucosa (EP/LPM) without LVI and vertical margin (VM) (EP/LPM group), and 41 cases showing pT1a-MM without LVI and VM (MM group) were analyzed in this investigation. The clinical outcomes were assessed between the groups. RESULTS The 5 year cumulative incidence of metastatic recurrence was 0.5% and 3.3% in the EP/LPM and MM groups, respectively (P = 0.121). Two cases showing pT1a-EP/LPM and one showing pT1a-MM experienced lymph node recurrence. The 5 year cumulative incidence of local recurrence was 1.5% and 3.8% in the EP/LPM and MM groups, respectively (P = 0.455). The 5 year disease-specific survival (DSS) rate was 99.3% and 96.6% in the EP/LPM and MM groups, respectively (P = 0.118), whereas the 5 year overall survival rate was significantly higher in the EP/LPM group than in the MM group (92.6% versus 81.1%, respectively; P = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS As regards metastatic recurrence and DSS, ESCC patients with pT1a-MM without LVI showed favorable outcomes that were equivalent to those with pT1a-EP/LPM, even when they were not treated with additional therapy after ESD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aortic stenosis (AS) is sometimes associated with gastrointestinal bleeding, and this phenomenon is known as Heyde's syndrome. Such bleeding is most often considered to originate from gastrointestinal angiodysplasias, but the frequency and endoscopic features of such bleeding remain unclear. This study aimed to determine the frequency and endoscopic features of gastrointestinal angiodysplasia in patients with severe AS. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this multicenter, retrospective study, we evaluated consecutive patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with severe AS from May 2016 to December 2019. We extracted the data on the clinicopathological features according to the status of anemia, the proportion of patients who underwent gastrointestinal endoscopic examinations and demonstrated gastrointestinal angiodysplasia, and identified the endoscopic features associated with such patients. RESULTS In 325 patients, the rates of moderate/severe anemia (hemoglobin < 11 g/dL) were 52%. Regarding medicine, there were no significant differences between the patients with and without moderate/severe anemia. Patients were examined by esophagogastroduodenoscopy (21%), colonoscopy (12%), and balloon-assisted enteroscopy or small bowel capsule endoscopy (1.5%). Patients with moderate/severe anemia had significantly more angiodysplasia (38.3% vs. 7.7%; p < 0.0001) and active bleeding (23.4% vs. 0%; p < 0.01). Angiodysplasia was detected in 21 patients (stomach, n = 9; small intestine, n = 5, and colon, n = 10). CONCLUSIONS The results suggest, for the first time, that patients with severe AS who underwent TAVI and moderate/severe anemia frequently had gastrointestinal angiodysplasia and active bleeding throughout the entire gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
Bleeding frequently occurs during gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and bleeding points are sometimes difficult to detect. Red dichromatic imaging (RDI) was recently developed to improve the visibility of bleeding. Our study aimed at examining the efficacy of RDI in improving the visibility of bleeding during gastric ESD. We retrospectively evaluated the visibility score and color difference of bleeding spot during gastric ESD during September 2020-January 2021. The visibility score was evaluated as four numeric values by operators, and the color difference between the bleeding spot and surroundings was evaluated using RDI and white light imaging (WLI). A further analysis to evaluate bleeding characteristics was performed to evaluate the possible beneficial effects of RDI. Twenty patients with a total of 85 bleedings were analyzed. The mean visibility score in RDI was significantly higher than that in WLI (3.69 ± 0.60 vs 3.20 ± 0.84, p < 0.01). The color difference with RDI was also significantly higher than that with WLI (19.51 ± 15.18 vs 14.80 ± 7.41, p < 0.01). Furthermore, in the bleedings with a higher visibility score in RDI, the color difference in RDI was significantly higher than that in WLI (23.99 ± 19.29 vs 14.33 ± 7.08, p < 0.01). The multivariate analysis of visibility scores revealed that submergence of bleeding points was independently associated with the superiority of RDI (odds ratio 10.35, 95% confidence interval: 2.76-38.81, p < 0.01). Our study demonstrates that RDI can improve the visibility of bleeding during gastric ESD.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: V-ATPase is highly expressed in cancer cells and has been shown to be involved in the transformation of normal cells into cancer cells, invasion of tissues, survival of cancer cells, and the formation of drug resistance. The use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) as V-ATPase inhibitors has been shown to enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in some cancers.
Material and Method: We investigated the effect of proton pump inhibitors on esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, one of the major causes of cancer mortality in Japan. First, three PPIs at various concentrations (lansoprazole, esomeprazole, and bonoprazan) and pyrimidine fluoride (5-FU), a key drug in chemotherapy for esophageal cancer, were used as basic medical agents. Human esophageal squamous cell lines, KYSE50 and KYSE70, were prepared and treated with the above drugs, and cell viability assays were performed using Cell Counting Kit 8 for 72 hours. We then performed a retrospective clinical study of 40 patients with clinical stage IV esophageal squamous cell carcinoma treated with the drugs at Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine Hospital in Japan.
Result: In cell survival assays, PPIs showed significantly enhanced cytotoxic effects of pyrimidine fluoride on all cell lines compared with those not treated with PPIs. Clinical data showed no difference in the incidence of treatment-related adverse events between the PPI and non-PPI groups. The response rate after two courses of chemotherapy was 66.7% in the PPI group and 40.9% in the non-PPI group (p=0.102). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed improved OS in patients treated with PPIs (log rank test p=0.032), and multivariate analysis showed that PPI use was associated with a more favorable OS (p=0.009,HR 0.33,95% CI 0.12-0.76 ).
Conclusion: In the chemotherapy of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, the use of PPIs may enhance the cytotoxic effect of the key drug, pyrimidine fluoride, while ensuring safety, and may lead to better therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Colonic mucus layers protect intestinal tissues against intestinal bacteria. We investigated the effects of dietary fiber and its metabolites on mucus production in the colonic mucosa. Mice were fed a partially hydrolyzed guar gum (PHGG)-containing diet and a fiber-free diet (FFD). The colon mucus layer, fecal short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) levels, and gut microbiota were evaluated. Mucin 2 (MUC2) expression was assessed in SCFA-treated LS174T cells. The role of AKT in MUC2 production was investigated. The mucus layer in the colonic epithelium was significantly increased in the PHGG group compared with that in the FFD group. In the PHGG group, an increase in Bacteroidetes in the stool was observed, and fecal acetate, butyrate, propionate, and succinate levels were significantly increased. However, MUC2 production was significantly increased only in succinate-stimulated LS174T cells. The succinate-induced MUC2 production was associated with AKT phosphorylation. Succinate mediated the PHGG-induced increase in the colon mucus layer.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION SOUTEN (KANEKA Co., Tokyo, Japan) is a unique snare with a disk tip. We analyzed the efficacy of precutting endoscopic mucosal resection with SOUTEN (PEMR-S) for colorectal lesions. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 57 lesions of 10-30 mm treated with PEMR-S at our institution from 2017 to 2022. The indications were lesions that were difficult for standard EMR due to size, morphology, and poor elevation by injection. Various therapeutic results of PEMR-S such as en bloc resection, procedure time, and perioperative hemorrhage were analyzed, and the results of 20 lesions of 20-30 mm with PEMR-S were compared to those of lesions with standard EMR (2012-2014) using propensity score matching. Additionally, the stability of the SOUTEN disk tip was analyzed in a laboratory experiment. RESULTS The polyp size was 16.5 ± 4.2 mm and the non-polypoid morphology rate was 80.7%. Histopathological diagnosis included 10 sessile-serrated lesions, 43 low-grade and high-grade dysplasias, and 4 T1 cancers. After matching, the en bloc resection and histopathological complete resection rates of lesions of 20-30 mm between PEMR-S and standard EMR (90.0% vs. 58.1%, p = 0.03 and 70.0% vs. 45.0%, p = 0.11). The procedure time (min) was 14.8 ± 9.7 and 9.7 ± 8.3 (p < 0.01). The en bloc resection (%) and procedure time of expert/non-expert were 89.7/85.7 (p = 0.96) and 6.1 ± 2.2/18.5 ± 7.2 (p < 0.01). The perioperative bleeding and hemostasis success rates with SOUTEN were 43.9% and 96.0%. In the experiment, the SOUTEN disk tip was fixed stably compared to other EMR snares. CONCLUSIONS PEMR-S achieved high en bloc resection of colorectal lesions of 20-30 mm though it leaded to long procedure time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously reported outcomes of endoscopic resection for duodenal tumors in a large cohort. This study investigated the frequency and characteristics of synchronous and metachronous lesions, and their association with colorectal advanced adenoma (CAA) and colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS Patients underwent duodenal endoscopic resection during January 2008 to December 2018. Background and characteristics, incidence of synchronous and metachronous lesions, and incidence of CAA and CRC were investigated. Patients without synchronous lesions were classified as the single group, and those with synchronous lesions as the synchronous group. Patients were also classified as the metachronous and non-metachronous groups. The characteristics among the groups were compared. RESULTS We included 2658 patients with 2881 duodenal tumors: 2472 (93.0%) patients had single, 186 (7.0%) had synchronous, and 54 (2.0%) had metachronous lesions. The 5-year cumulative incidence of metachronous lesions was 4.1%. In total, 208 (7.8%) had CAA and 127 (4.8%) patients had CRC, and colonoscopy was performed in 936 (35.2%) patients. The incidence of CAA in the synchronous groups tended to be higher compared with that in the single groups (11.8% vs 7.5%, adjusted risk ratio 1.56), and the incidence of CRC in the metachronous groups tended to be higher compared with that in the non-metachronous groups (13.0% vs 4.6%, adjusted risk ratio 2.75), but there was no difference after adjusting for colonoscopy. CONCLUSIONS This study showed the incidence of synchronous and metachronous duodenal lesions. There was no significant difference in incidence of CAA and CRC among each group, but further studies are warranted.

Abstract
The environmental stability of human coronavirus OC43 (HCoV-OC43) on the surface of human skin and the effectiveness of disinfectant against HCoV-OC43, which are important to prevent contact transmission, have not been clarified in previous studies. Using previously generated models, we evaluated HCoV-OC43 stability and disinfection effectiveness. Then we compared the results with those for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The median survival time of HCoV-OC43 on the surface of human skin was 24.6 h (95% confidence interval, 19.7 to 29.6 h), which was higher than that of SARS-CoV-2 (10.8 h). Although the in vitro disinfectant effectiveness evaluation showed that HCoV-OC43 has a higher ethanol resistance than SARS-CoV-2, HCoV-OC43 on the skin surface was completely inactivated by a minimum of 50% ethanol within 5 s (the log reduction values were >4.0). Moreover, 1.0% chlorhexidine gluconate and 0.2% benzalkonium chloride showed relatively high disinfectant effectiveness, and the log reduction values when these disinfectants were applied for 15 s were >3.0. HCoV-OC43 is highly stable on the skin surface, which may increase the risk of contact transmission. Although HCoV-OC43 has relatively high ethanol resistance, appropriate hand hygiene practices with current alcohol-based disinfectants sufficiently reduce the risk of contact transmission. IMPORTANCE This study revealed the environmental stability of HCoV-OC43 and disinfectant effectiveness against HCoV-OC43, which had not been demonstrated in previous studies. HCoV-OC43 is highly stable on the surface of human skin, with a survival time of approximately 25 h. High stability of HCoV-OC43 may increase the risk of contact transmission. Furthermore, the in vitro disinfectant effectiveness evaluation showed that HCoV-OC43, which is classified as an envelope virus, has a relatively high ethanol resistance. This finding suggests that disinfectant effectiveness may vary greatly depending on the virus and that each virus targeted for infection control should be evaluated individually. HCoV-OC43 on the skin surface was rapidly inactivated by 50% ethanol, which suggests that appropriate hand hygiene practices with current alcohol-based disinfectants can sufficiently reduce the risk of HCoV-OC43 contact transmission.

Abstract
Small intestinal lipomas are rare, but may cause obscure gastrointestinal bleeding. The endoscopic unroofing technique excises only the upper third of the lipoma and allows both histological confirmation and complete treatment with minimal risk of perforation. We present a rare case of obscure gastrointestinal bleeding caused by a jejunal lipoma. A 75-year-old man on antiplatelet therapy presented to our department with melena and anemia. Computed tomography revealed he had a 45-mm jejunal submucosal tumor with fat attenuation. Endoscopic resection using an endoscopic unroofing technique with double balloon enteroscopy was successfully performed. The tumor was confirmed to be a lipoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM The aim of this post-hoc analysis in a randomized, controlled, multicenter trial was to evaluate the visibility of upper gastrointestinal (UGI) neoplasms detected using linked color imaging (LCI) compared with those detected using white light imaging (WLI). METHODS The visibility of the detected UGI neoplasm images obtained using both WLI and LCI was subjectively reviewed, and the median color difference (ΔE) between each lesion and the surrounding mucosa according to the CIE L*a*b* color space was evaluated objectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors associated with neoplasms that were missed under WLI and detected under LCI. RESULTS A total of 120 neoplasms, including 10, 32, and 78 neoplasms in the pharynx, esophagus, and stomach, respectively, were analyzed in this study. LCI enhanced the visibility 80.9% and 93.6% of neoplasms in pharynx/esophagus and stomach compared with WLI, respectively. LCI also achieved a higher ΔE of enhanced neoplasms compared with WLI in the pharynx/esophagus and stomach. The median WLI ΔE values for gastric neoplasms missed under WLI and later detected under LCI were significantly lower than those for gastric neoplasms detected under WLI (8.2 vs 9.6, respectively). Furthermore, low levels of WLI ΔE (odds ratio [OR], 7.215) and high levels of LCI ΔE (OR, 22.202) were significantly associated with gastric neoplasms missed under WLI and later detected under LCI. CONCLUSION Color differences were independently associated with missing gastric neoplasms under WLI, suggesting that LCI has an obvious advantage over WLI in enhancing neoplastic visibility.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is important for the detection of curable gastric cancer (GC). However, there are no appropriate surveillance data during routine endoscopic inspections. This study aimed to clarify the risk factors of pT1b or deeper GC detection during surveillance endoscopy. METHODS This was a retrospective, multicenter, cross-sectional study conducted in 15 Japanese hospitals. We retrospectively analyzed patients with GC who had previously undergone surveillance endoscopy at each institution from January 2014 to March 2020. Patients who had undergone gastrectomy, non-infection of Helicobacter pylori (Hp), and those with intervals <3 months or >10 years from a previous endoscopy were excluded. RESULTS In total, 1085 patients with GCs detected during surveillance endoscopy were enrolled. The multivariate logistic analysis revealed that current Hp infection (odds ratio [OR] 2.18; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.50-3.16) and a surveillance interval of >1.5 years (OR 1.96; 95% CI 1.35-2.84) were independent risk factors for pT1b or deeper GC. The 5-year disease-specific survival (5y-DSS) rate of GC was significantly lower in patients with surveillance interval of >1.5 years than in those with surveillance interval of ≤1.5 years (93.7% vs. 98.3%, P < 0.001). Similarly, the 5y-DSS rate of GC was significantly lower in patients with active Hp infection than in those without (93.7% vs. 99.4%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION In this study, a surveillance interval of >1.5 years and current Hp infection were independent risk factors for detecting pT1b or deeper GC. Additionally, these factors were poor prognostic factors of the detected GC during surveillance endoscopy.

[PMID: 35318554 DOI: 10.1007/s10620-022-07460-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 02/18/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION An endoscopic system using 5-color light-emitting diodes (LEDs) (EVIS X1; Olympus Co., Tokyo, Japan), which includes texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI), has been released. In this study, we analyzed the effects of TXI on the visibility of non-polypoid colorectal lesions and its diagnostic accuracy. METHODS We reviewed 101 non-polypoid lesions from 26 patients observed with white light imaging (WLI), narrow band imaging (NBI), and TXI. One representative image of each mode was evaluated by 6 endoscopists using a polyp visibility score of 4 (excellent) to 1 (poor). We calculated the color difference (CD) values for each lesion in the three modes. For tumor characteristics, one representative image of TXI and NBI magnification was evaluated by 3 experts according to a NBI classification. RESULTS The least squares means [95% confidence interval] of polyp visibility score of TXI (3.42 [3.06-3.77]) was significantly higher than that of WLI (2.85 [2.49-3.20], p < 0.001) but not that of NBI (3.33 [2.98-3.69], p = 0.258). The CD value of TXI (13.3 ± 6.3) was higher than that of WLI (9.7 ± 6.0, p < 0.001) but not that of NBI (13.1 ± 6.8, p = 0.81). For sessile serrated lesions, the CD value of TXI (11.1 ± 4.4) tended to be lower than that of NBI (12.6 ± 6.0, p = 0.07). The diagnostic accuracy and confidence level of magnification for NBI were significantly better than those for TXI (87.1 vs. 80.5%, p = 0.027, 87.5 vs. 62.7%, p < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION TXI showed better visibility than WLI in terms of the endoscopist's score and CD value and may improve polyp detection.

Rectal administration of low-dose diclofenac does not reduce post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis: a propensity score matching analysis. Surg Endosc 2022; 37:2698-2705. [PMID: 36443561 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-022-09718-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2022] [Accepted: 10/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a popular technique; however, post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) remains a major adverse event. The administration of rectal nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is reportedly effective in preventing PEP. However, the recommended dose varies and the efficacy of low-dose rectal NSAIDs remains unclear. Therefore, we decided to investigate the effectiveness of low-dose rectal diclofenac on PEP prevention, using propensity score matching. METHODS This single-center retrospective study included 401 patients who underwent ERCP between July 2015 and March 2020. After December 2016, we administered rectal diclofenac within 30 min before the ERCP procedure as widely as possible. Patients were divided into those who did (diclofenac group) and did not (control group) receive rectal diclofenac. Patients weighing ≥ 50 kg were administered a 50 mg dose, while those weighing < 50 kg were administered a 25 mg dose. The incidence and severity of PEP in the two groups were assessed by propensity score matching analysis. RESULTS Among 401 patients undergoing ERCP, 367 fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Overall, 187 patients received rectal diclofenac (diclofenac group) and 180 did not (control group). After propensity score matching, 105 pairs were selected for evaluation. Overall, seven (6.7%) patients in the diclofenac group and 10 (9.5%) in the control group developed PEP (P = 0.45). Moderate or severe PEP occurred in four (3.8%) patients in the diclofenac group and six (5.7%) in the control group (P = 0.52). CONCLUSIONS The administration of low-dose rectal diclofenac could not reduce the incidence and severity of PEP.

Abstract
Background Esophagectomy is the standard adjuvant treatment for superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SESCC) following noncurative endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). However, recent reports have also shown that ESD with adjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) has promising results. This retrospective study aimed to elucidate the efficacy of CRT compared to surgery in patients with SESCC after noncurative ESD. Methods This study retrospectively compared the long-term outcomes of patients who received adjuvant treatment with surgery or CRT after noncurative ESD for SESCC. Results Data were collected from 60 patients who developed SESCC after noncurative ESD, 34 of whom received adjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and 26 underwent esophagectomy. The median follow-up periods were 46 and 56 months in the CRT and esophagectomy groups, respectively. The median patient age was significantly higher in the CRT group than in the esophagectomy group (69 vs. 65 years, p = 0.0054). CRT was completed in all patients, and the incidence of grade ≥ 3 nonhematologic adverse events was 6%. The overall and disease-free survival did not significantly differ between the two groups. Conclusions CRT following ESD seems a promising nonsurgical strategy for optimizing the selection of therapies for high-risk SESCC and warrant further investigation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In light-emitting diode (LED) and laser colonoscopy, linked color imaging (LCI) superiority to white-light imaging (WLI) for polyp detection is shown separately. We analyzed the noninferiority of LCI between LED and laser colonoscopy and that of WLI (LECOL study). METHODS We prospectively collected nonpolypoid lesions with WLI and LCI using LED and laser colonoscopy from January 2021 to August 2021. All images were evaluated randomly by 12 endoscopists (six nonexperts and six experts in three institutions) using the polyp visibility score: 4, excellent; 3, good; 2, fair; and 1, poor. The comparison score (LED better/similar/laser better) for redness and brightness was evaluated for WLI and LCI pictures of each lesion. RESULTS Finally, 63 nonpolypoid lesions were evaluated, and the mean polyp size was 24.5 ± 13.4 mm. Histopathology revealed 13 serrated lesions and 50 adenomatous/cancerous lesions. The mean polyp visibility scores of LCI pictures were significantly higher than those of WLI in the LED (3.35 ± 0.85 vs. 3.08 ± 0.91, P < 0.001) and the laser (3.40 ± 1.71 vs. 3.05 ± 0.97, P < 0.001) group, and the noninferiority of LCI pictures between LED and laser was significant (P < 0.001). The comparison scores revealed that the evaluation of redness and brightness (LED better/similar/laser better) were 26.8%/40.1%/33.1% and 43.5%/43.5%/13.0% for LCI pictures (P < 0.001) and 20.6%/44.3%/35.1% and 60.3%/31.7%/8.0% for WLI pictures (P < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSION The noninferiority of polyp visibility with WLI and LCI in LED and laser colonoscopy was shown. WLI and LCI of LED tended to be brighter and less reddish than those of laser.

Abstract
Mesalamine is a key drug in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) for both induction and maintenance therapy. On the other hand, it is known that there are some cases of mesalamine intolerance that are difficult to distinguish from symptoms due to aggravation of UC. The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical characteristic of mesalamine intolerance in UC. A retrospective, observational study was conducted. We enrolled 31 patients who were diagnosed as mesalamine intolerance between April 2015 to March 2020. We examined clinical features, time to onset, drug types of mesalamine, DLST positive rate, colonoscopy findings, disease activity, and clinical course after diagnosis. The average dose of mesalamine was 3.69 g and DLST-positive was 57.1%. Within the first 2 weeks from the start of mesalamine, 51.6% showed symptoms of intolerance. The serum CRP level was relatively high at ≥10.0 mg/dl in 53.6% of the cases. There was no difference in clinical background, symptoms, or laboratory findings between patients with DLST-positive and negative. In this study, we clarified the clinical characteristics of mesalamine intolerant patients, and found no difference in the clinical background or success rate of desensitization therapy between positive and negative DLST cases.

Abstract
Background/Aims Several studies have assessed the effect of cool temperature on colonic peristalsis. Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) is a temperature-sensitive ion channel activated by mild cooling expressed in the colon. We examined the antispasmodic effect of cool temperature on colonic peristalsis in a prospective, randomized, single-blind trial and based on the video imaging and intraluminal pressure of the proximal colon in rats and TRPM8-deficient mice. Methods In the clinical trial, we randomly assigned a total of 94 patients scheduled to undergo colonoscopy to 2 groups: the mildly cool water (n = 47) and control (n = 47) groups. We used 20 mL of 15°C water for the mildly cool water. The primary outcome was the proportion of subjects with improved peristalsis after treatment. In the rodent proximal colon, we evaluated the intraluminal pressure and performed video imaging of the rodent proximal colon with cool water administration into the colonic lumen. Clinical trial registry website (Trial No. UMIN-CTR; UMIN000030725). Results In the randomized controlled trial, after treatment, the proportion of subjects with no peristalsis with cool water was significantly higher than that in the placebo group (44.7% vs 23.4%; P < 0.05). In the rodent colon model, cool temperature water was associated with a significant decrease in colonic peristalsis through its suppression of the ratio of peak frequency (P < 0.05). Cool temperature-treated TRPM8-deficient mice did not show a reduction in colonic peristalsis compared with wild-type mice. Conclusion For the first time, this study demonstrates that cool temperature-dependent suppression of colonic peristalsis may be associated with TRPM8 activation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent progress in ulcerative colitis (UC) treatment has been remarkable, and various medications have been applied. However, some patients with UC are refractory to treatment and convert to surgery. AIM To investigate the role of colonic mucosal Wnt-5a expression in the pathogenesis of UC and the effect of bioactive Wnt-5a peptide on colitis in mice. METHODS Wnt-5a peptide was intraperitoneally administered to mice every day from the beginning of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) treatment. The severity of colitis was evaluated based on body weight change, colonic length, and histological scores. Colonic mucosal TNF-α and KC mRNA expression levels were measured. This study included 70 patients with UC in clinical remission. Wnt-5a, TNFα, and IL-8 mRNA expression in the rectal mucosa were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction using biopsy materials. Wnt-5a mRNA expression levels were compared between patients who relapsed and those in remission. We examined the correlation of Wnt-5a expression with TNF-α and IL-8 expression. RESULTS Wnt-5a peptide significantly attenuated the severity of DSS-induced colitis. Moreover, mucosal TNF-α and KC mRNA expression were significantly suppressed by Wnt-5a peptide treatment. Wnt-5a mRNA levels were significantly lower in patients with subsequent relapse than in those who remained in remission. Mucosal Wnt-5a was inversely correlated with TNF α and IL-8 expression. CONCLUSION Wnt-5a peptide suppressed colitis in mice, and decreased Wnt-5a expression was strongly associated with relapse in patients with UC. Wnt-5a may have an inhibitory effect on mucosal inflammation in UC, and Wnt-5a peptide could be a new therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Studies have reported the feasibility of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer (EGC) in elderly people with respect to both short- and long-term outcomes. As the elderly population in society increases, the requirement for managing super-elderly patients aged ≥85 years with EGC will also increase. This study aims to identify the long-term clinical outcomes of ESD for clinical T1N0 EGC in patients aged ≥85 years. METHODS A total of 370 consecutive patients aged ≥85 years with clinical T1N0 EGC who were managed in 11 institutions were reviewed retrospectively. On the basis of treatment strategy, we compared the overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) after performing propensity score-matched analysis between patients undergoing ESD (ESD group) and those not undergoing treatment (conservative treatment group). The potential prognostic factors were also investigated in the propensity score-matched patients. RESULTS After propensity score matching, we found that the 3-year OS and DSS rates were significantly higher in the ESD group than in the conservative treatment group (OS, 82.2% vs. 50.5%; p < 0.001; DSS, 100% vs. 80.1%; p = 0.008). Furthermore, ESD was identified as a significant factor for prolonged OS, whereas Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) ≥3 and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) <36.2 were associated with reduced OS. CONCLUSION ESD was associated with improved OS in patients with clinical T1N0 EGC aged ≥85 years compared with the absence of treatment. Furthermore, CCI and PNI were helpful for patient selection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of bleeding after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in antithrombotic agent users has increased, and its management remains a problem. Second-look endoscopy (SLE) following gastric ESD in antithrombotic agent users may be effective in preventing delayed bleeding, but this requires elucidation. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the efficacy of SLE in reducing bleeding after gastric ESD in patients receiving antithrombotic agents. METHODS This retrospective cohort study was conducted at 19 referral hospitals in Japan. A total of 1,245 patients who were receiving antithrombotic agents underwent gastric ESD between January 2013 and July 2018. The incidence of delayed bleeding was compared between SLE and non-SLE groups using propensity score matching analysis. RESULTS Overall, 858 patients (SLE group, 657 patients; non-SLE group, 201 patients) were analyzed. After matching, 198 pairs were created. Delayed bleeding occurred in 10 patients (5.1%) in the SLE group and 16 patients (8.1%) in the non-SLE group [odds ratio (OR) 0.605, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.23-1.46, p = 0.310]. In the subgroup analysis, SLE reduced the incidence of delayed bleeding in patients receiving heparin bridging therapy (6.3% and 40.0%, respectively; p = 0.004). In the SLE group, prophylactic coagulation did not significantly reduce delayed bleeding compared to the no treatment group (14.6% and 8.6%, respectively; p = 0.140). CONCLUSIONS SLE was ineffective in reducing bleeding after gastric ESD in antithrombotic agent users, overall. A prospective comparative study is warranted to definitively evaluate the effectiveness of SLE in reducing bleeding in high-risk patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on endoscopic resection (ER) for superficial duodenal epithelial tumors (SDETs) are insufficient owing to their rarity. There are two main ER techniques for SDETs: endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). In addition, modified EMR techniques, such as underwater EMR (UEMR) and cold polypectomy, are becoming popular. We conducted a large-scale retrospective multicenter study to clarify the detailed outcomes of duodenal ER. METHODS Patients with SDETs who underwent ER at 18 institutions from January 2008 to December 2018 were included. The rates of en bloc resection and delayed adverse events (AEs; defined as delayed bleeding or perforation) were analyzed. Local recurrence was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS In total, 3107 patients (including 1017 undergoing ESD) were included. En bloc resection rates were 79.1 %, 78.6 %, 86.8 %, and 94.8 %, and delayed AE rates were 0.5 %, 2.2 %, 2.8 %, and 6.8 % for cold polypectomy, UEMR, EMR and ESD, respectively. The delayed AE rate was significantly higher in the ESD group than in non-ESD groups for lesions < 19 mm (7.4 % vs. 1.9 %; P < 0.001), but not for lesions > 20 mm (6.1 % vs. 7.1 %; P = 0.64). The local recurrence rate was significantly lower in the ESD group than in the non-ESD groups (P < 0.001). Furthermore, for lesions > 30 mm, the cumulative local recurrence rate at 2 years was 22.6 % in the non-ESD groups compared with only 1.6 % in the ESD group (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS ER outcomes for SDETs were generally acceptable. ESD by highly experienced endoscopists might be an option for very large SDETs.
