Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a consensus that identifying the distal end of the palisade vessels (DEPV) is important for diagnosing gastroesophageal junction (GEJ). However, optimum observation methods have not been established. This study investigated the use of effective image-enhanced endoscopy (IEE) for DEPV detection. METHODS One hundred endoscopic images in 20 cases of columnar metaplastic mucosa of the GEJ recorded with white-light imaging (Olympus-WLI and Fujifilm-WLI) and IEEs (narrow-band imaging; RDI1/2/3, red dichromatic imaging; texture and color enhancement imaging 1/2; blue-laser imaging; and LCI, linked color imaging) from two manufacturers were extracted and evaluated by 10 evaluators. Up to 24 radial straight lines from the center of the lumen were placed on the image, and the evaluators placed markings according to confidence level (high, low, and not detectable) at the DEPV locations. The detectability and reproducibility at the rate of the confidence level and coefficient of variance of markings among the evaluator were analyzed. RESULTS In total, 15,180 markings were obtained. In terms of detectability, RDI1 (49.4%), RDI2 (53.0%), RDI3 (54.1%), TXI2 (49.7%), and LCI (34.6%) had a significantly higher rate of high confidence among the IEEs in each manufacturer. By contrast, Olympus-WLI (40.6%), Fujifilm-WLI (17.6%), narrow-band imaging (15.9%), and blue laser imaging (9.8%) presented with a significantly lower rates of high confidence. Regarding reproducibility, RDI3 and LCI had the lowest coefficient of variance for each manufacturer. CONCLUSIONS RDI and LCI could be reliable modalities for detecting DEPVs in the columnar metaplastic mucosa of the GEJ zone.

Abstract
Over the last two decades, endoscopic eradication therapy has been established as the therapeutic strategy of choice for patients with Barrett's oesophagus-related dysplasia and early oesophageal adenocarcinoma. With a multimodal approach, ablative therapies have been highly effective in achieving remarkable eradication rates of metaplastic epithelium with an acceptable adverse event rate. Among ablative techniques, radiofrequency ablation is currently considered as the first-line option as its efficacy and safety are strongly supported by relevant data. Nevertheless, radiofrequency ablation is costly, and not universally available, or applicable to every situation. Moreover, primary failure and recurrence rates are not negligible. In the last few years, cryotherapy techniques and hybrid argon plasma coagulation have been increasingly assessed as potential novel ablative therapies. Preliminary data have been promising and suggest that they may even have a role as first-line options, alternatively to radiofrequency ablation. The aim of this review is to provide a practical guide for the ablation of Barrett's oesophagus, with emphasis on the different ablative options.

Effect of adding acetic acid when performing magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging for diagnosis of Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma. Endosc Int Open 2022; 10:E1528-E1536.

Abstract
Background and study aims Magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging (M-NBI) was developed to diagnose Barrett's esophageal adenocarcinoma (BEA); however, this method remains challenging for inexperienced endoscopists. We aimed to evaluate a modified M-NBI technique that included spraying acetic acid (M-AANBI). Patients and methods Eight endoscopists retrospectively examined 456 endoscopic images obtained from 28 patients with 29 endoscopically resected BEA lesions using three validation schemes: Validation 1 (260 images), wherein the diagnostic performances of M-NBI and M-AANBI were compared - the dataset included 65 images each of BEA and non-neoplastic Barrett's esophagus (NNBE) obtained using each modality; validation 2 (112 images), wherein 56 pairs of M-NBI and M-AANBI images were prepared from the same BEA and NNBE lesions, and diagnoses derived using M-NBI alone were compared to those obtained using both M-NBI and M-AANBI; and validation 3 (84 images), wherein the ease of identifying the BEA demarcation line (DL) was scored via a visual analog scale in 28 patients using magnifying endoscopy with white-light imaging (M-WLI), M-NBI, and M-AANBI. Results For validation 1, M-AANBI was superior to M-NBI in terms of sensitivity (90.8 % vs. 64.6 %), specificity (98.5 % vs. 76.9 %), and accuracy (94.6 % vs. 70.4 %) (all P < 0.05). For validation 2, the accuracy of M-NBI alone was significantly improved when combined with M-AANBI (from 70.5 % to 89.3 %; P < 0.05). For validation 3, M-AANBI had the highest mean score for ease of DL recognition (8.75) compared to M-WLI (3.63) and M-NBI (6.25) (all P < 0.001). Conclusions Using M-AANBI might improve the accuracy of BEA diagnosis.

Clinical Relevance of Random Biopsies From the Esophagogastric Junction After Complete Eradication of Barrett's Esophagus is Low. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2022:S1542-3565(22)01091-6. [PMID: 36423874 DOI: 10.1016/j.cgh.2022.11.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2022] [Revised: 11/01/2022] [Accepted: 11/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Although random histological sampling from the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) after complete eradication of Barrett's esophagus (BE) is recommended, its clinical relevance is questionable. This study aimed to assess the incidence and long-term outcomes of findings from random EGJ biopsies in a nationwide cohort with long-term follow-up. METHODS We included all patients with successful endoscopic eradication therapy (EET), defined as complete endoscopic eradication of all visible BE (CE-BE), for early BE neoplasia from the Dutch registry. Patients were treated and followed-up in 9 expert centers according to a joint protocol. Outcomes included the incidence of intestinal metaplasia (IM) at the EGJ (EGJ-IM) and the association between IM and visible (dysplastic) BE recurrence. RESULTS A total of 1154 patients were included with a median follow-up of 43 months (interquartile range, 22-69 months). At the time of CE-BE, persisting EGJ-IM was found in 7% of patients (78/1154), which was reproduced during further follow-up in 46% of patients (42/78). No significant association existed between persisting EGJ-IM at CE-BE and recurrent non-dysplastic or dysplastic BE (hazard ratio [HR], 1.15; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.63-2.13 and HR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.17-3.06, respectively). Among patients with no EGJ-IM at the time of CE-BE (1043/1154; 90%), EGJ-IM recurred in 7% (72/1043) after a median of 21 months (interquartile range, 15-36 months), and was reproduced during further follow-up in 26% of patients (19/72). No association was found between recurrent EGJ-IM and non-dysplastic or dysplastic recurrence (HR, 1.18; 95% CI, 0.67-2.06 and HR, 0.27; 95% CI, 0.04-1.96, respectively). CONCLUSION Because EGJ-IM was not associated with a higher risk for recurrent disease, we recommend to consider abandoning random EGJ sampling after successful EET, under the condition that care is provided in expert centers, and the esophagus, including the EGJ, is carefully inspected (Netherlands Trial Register, NL7309).
