1Molecular basis of the irritable bowel syndrome显示文摘Irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)is a functional disorder characterized by abdominal pain,discomfort and bloating.The pathophysiology of IBS is poorly understood,but the presence of psychosocial basis is now known.There is an increasing number of publications supporting the role of genetics in IBS.Most of the variations are found in genes associated with the brain-gut axis,revealing the strong correlation of brain-gut axis and IBS.miRNAs,which play critical roles in physiological processes,are not well studied in IBS.However,so far there is found an involvement of alterations in miRNA expression or sequence,in IBS symptoms.IBS phenotype is affected by epigenetic alteration and environment.Changes in DNA and histone methylation are observed in patients who suffered childhood trauma or abuse,resulting in altered gene expression,such as the glucocorticoid receptor gene.Finally,diet is another factor associated with IBS,which may contribute to symptom onset.Certain foods may affect on bacterial metabolism and epigenetic modifications,predisposing to IBS.Anna Vaiopoulou Georgios Karamanolis Theodora Psaltopoulou George Karatzias Maria Gazouli 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,2:21
2Contribution of ghrelin to functional gastrointestinal disorders' pathogenesis显示文摘Functional gastrointestinal disorders(FGID) are heterogeneous disorders with a variety of clinical manifestations, primarily defined by signs and symptoms rather than a definite underlying cause. Their pathophysiology remains obscure and, although it is expected to differ according to the specific FGID, disruptions in the brain-gut axis are now thought to be a common denominator in their pathogenesis. The hormone ghrelin is an important component of this axis,exerting a wide repertoire of physiological actions, including regulation of gastrointestinal motility and protection of mucosal tissue. Ghrelin's gene shows genetic polymorphism, while its protein product undergoes complex regulation and metabolism in the human body. Numerous studies have studied ghrelin's relation to the emergence of FGIDs, its potential value as an index of disease severity and as a predictive marker for symptom relief during attempted treatment. Despite the mixed results currently available in scientific literature, the plethora of statistically significant findings shows that disruptions in ghrelin genetics and expression are plausibly related to FGID pathogenesis. The aim of this paper is to review current literature studying these associations, in an effort to uncover certain patterns of alterations in both genetics and expression, which could delineate its true contribution to FGID emergence, either as a causative agent or as a pathogenetic intermediate.Tilemachos Koutouratsas Theodora Kalli Georgios Karamanolis Maria Gazouli 2019World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,5:14
3A prospective cross-over study using a sphincterotome and a guidewire to increase the success rate of common bile duct cannulation显示文摘AIM: During endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), selective cannulation of the common bile duct (CBD) is required in most of the cases.METHODS: From June 2001 till December 2002, all patients referred to our unit for ERCP were considered for entry into the study. Selective CBD cannulation was first attempted with a standard catheter with or without the use of a guidewire. In cases, where CBD cannulation was considered unsuccessful, patients were crossed over to a double-lumen sphincterotome and a guidewire. All patients were hospitalized for 24 h after the procedure in order to assess the incidence of post-ERCP complications.RESULTS: The study sample consisted of 158 patients.Selective CBD cannulation using a standard ERCP catheter with or without the assistance of a guidewire, was accomplished in 129 patients (success rate: 81.65%).From the 29 patients who were crossed over to a sphincterotome and a guidewire, selective CBD cannulation was achieved in 24; the overall success rate rising to 96.8%. Meanwhile, the use of this technique did not increase the incidence of post-ERCP complications.CONCLUSION: The use of a sphincterotome and a guidewire increases the success rate of selective bile duct cannulation in cases that this has not been accomplished with a standard catheter.Georgios Karamanolis Aikaterini Katsikani Nikos Viazis Gerasimos Stefanidis Spilios Manolakopoulos Spiros Sgouros Efthimia Papadopoulou Apostolos Mantides 2005World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,11:3

5Changes in the esophageal mucosa of patients with non erosive reflux disease:How far have we gone?显示文摘The normal esophageal mucosa creates a protective epithelial barrier that constrains the acidic reflux in the esophageal lumen. Microscopic findings and functional studies indicate that this barrier might be impaired in patients with non erosive reflux disease(NERD) but not in patients with functional heartburn(FH). Whereas endoscopy and pH monitoring are the most important diagnostic tools in the diagnosis of NERD, recent studies suggest that esophageal biopsies might have a complementary role. Particularly in the differential diagnosis between NERD and FH, the application of histological severity scores showed very promising results. Further evaluation of the scores could lead to routine application of histology in specific NERD populations.Christos Triantos Nikolaos Koukias Georgios Karamanolis Konstantinos Thomopoulos 2015World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,19:3
6Serum zonulin levels in patients with liver cirrhosis:Prognostic implications显示文摘BACKGROUND Increased gut permeability and bacterial translocation play an important role in liver cirrhosis.Zonulin is a recently recognized protein involved in the disintegration of the intestinal barrier.AIM To investigate possible differences in serum zonulin levels among patients with different cirrhosis stages and their potential prognostic implications.METHODS Consecutive cirrhotic patients who attended our liver clinic were included in the study.Serum zonulin levels,clinical,radiological and biochemical data were collected at baseline.Patients who accepted participation in a regular surveillance program were followed-up for at least 12 mo.RESULTS We enrolled 116 cirrhotics[mean Child-Turcotte-Pugh(CTP)score:6.2±1.6;model for end-stage liver disease score:11±3.9].The causes of cirrhosis were viral hepatitis(39%),alcohol(30%),non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(17%),and other(14%).At baseline,53% had decompensated cirrhosis,48% had ascites,and 32% had history of hepatic encephalopathy.Mean zonulin levels were significantly higher in patients with CTP-B class than CTP-A class(4.2±2.4 ng/dL vs 3.5±0.9 ng/dL,P=0.038),with than without ascites(P=0.006),and with than without history of encephalopathy(P=0.011).Baseline serum zonulin levels were independently associated with the probability of decompensation at 1 year(P=0.039),with an area under the receiving operating characteristic of 0.723 for predicting hepatic decompensation.Higher CTP score(P=0.021)and portal vein diameter(P=0.022)were independent predictors of mortality.CONCLUSION Serum zonulin levels are higher in patients with more advanced chronic liver disease and have significant prognostic value in identifying patients who will develop decompensation.Theodoros A Voulgaris Dimitrios Karagiannakis E Hadziyannis Spilios Manolakopoulos Georgios P Karamanolis George Papatheodoridis John Vlachogiannakos 2021World Journal of Hepatology2021,13,10:2
7Solitary colonic neurofibroma in a patient with transient segmental colitis: Case report显示文摘Neurofibromas of the large bowel are very rare and usually are part of the colonic involvement in neurofibromatosis type 1 (Nf1, von Recklinghausen's disease). Solitary neurofibromas of the colon are extremely rare. We describe a case of an isolated neurofibroma that was found in the large bowel of a patient who suffered from segmental colitis and presented with bloody diarrhea. A review of the literature is also included, concerning the disclosure of isolated neurofibromas in the gut and other body parts and the type of gastrointestinal involvement in von Recklinghausen's disease.Vasilios Panteris Thivi Vassilakaki Nikos Vaitsis Ioannis Elemenoglou Irini Mylonakou Dimitrios Georgios Karamanolis 2005World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,35:2

9Esophageal manifestation in patients with scleroderma显示文摘The esophagus is the most commonly affected part of the gastrointestinal system in patients with systemic sclerosis(SSc).Esophageal involvement may lead to a significant reduction in patient quality of life.The exact pathophysiology is complex and not yet fully elucidated.Ultimately,esophageal smooth muscle becomes atrophied and replaced by fibrous tissue leading to severe motility disturbance of the distal esophagus.Symptoms are mainly attributed to gastroesophageal reflux disease and to esophageal dysmotility.Compelling evidence has correlated esophageal involvement to the severity of pulmonary disease.No formed guidelines exist about the diagnostic modalities used to assess esophageal disease in patients with SSc,though upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is the first and most important modality used as it can reveal alterations commonly observed in patients with SSc.Further exploration can be made by high resolution manometry and pH-impedance study.Proton pump inhibitors remain the mainstay of treatment,while prokinetic agents are commonly used as add-on therapy in patients with symptoms attributed to gastroesophageal reflux disease not responding to standard therapy as well as to motility disturbances.Gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms in patients with SSc are frequently difficult to manage,and new therapeutic modalities are emerging.The role of surgical treatment is restricted and should only be preserved for resistant cases.Theodoros A Voulgaris Georgios P Karamanolis 2021World Journal of Clinical Cases2021,9,20:1

11Incidence of ulcerative colitis in Central Greece: A prospective study显示文摘AIM: To study the incidence of ulcerative colitis UC in the prefecture of Trikala, Central Greece.METHODS: A prospective and population basedepidemiological study of UC from 1990 to the end of 1994was conducted. Trikala is a semirural prefecture of Central Greece with a population of 138 946 (census 1991). Three gastroenterologists (one hospital based, two private doctors)of the prefecture participated in this study.RESULTS: During the study period, 66 new histologically verified cases of UC were recorded. The mean annual incidence of the disease in 1990-1994 was 11.2 per 105inhabitants (95%CI: 8.7-14.3). There was no difference between men and women (annual incidence: 10.5 and 12.0 per 105 inhabitants respectively), either among urban,semirural or rural populations (annual incidence: 11.7,17.1 and 9.9 per 105 inhabitants respectively). The majority (56%) of the patients never smoked and a quarter were ex-smokers. About a half of all cases had proctitis.CONCLUSION: UC is common in Central Greece and its incidence is similar to that in North-Western European countries.Spiros D.Ladas Elias Mallas Konstantinos Giorgiotis Georgios Karamanolis Dimitrios Trigonis Apostolos Markadas Vana Sipsa Sotirios A.Raptis 2005World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,12:1

13Association of rs1568885, rs1813443 and rs4411591 polymorphisms with anti-TNF medication response in Greek patients with Crohn's disease显示文摘AIM:To investigate the correlation between rs1568885,rs1813443 and rs4411591 polymorphisms and response to infliximab in a cohort of Greek patients with Crohn’s disease(CD).METHODS:One hundred and twenty-six patients diagnosed with CD based on standard clinical,endoscopic,radiological,and pathological criteria were enrolled in this study at the Gastroenterology Unit of the 2nd Department of Surgery and at the Colorectal Unit of the1st Department of Propaedeutic Surgery.Infliximab at a dose of 5 mg/kg was administered intravenously at weeks 0,2,6 and then every 8 wk.Clinical and serological responses were assessed using the HarveyBradshaw Index and serum C-reactive protein(CRP)levels,respectively,and the endoscopic response was evaluated by ileocolonoscopy performed at baseline and after 12-20 wk of therapy.The changes in endoscopic appearance compared to baseline were classified into four categories,and patients were classified as responders and non-responders.Genomic DNA from whole peripheral blood was extracted and genotyping was performed by allele-specific polymerase chain reactions.χ2test with Yate’s correction based on the S-Plus was used to compare the genotype frequencies.RESULTS:Eighty patients(63.49%)were classified as complete and 32(25.39%)as partial responders to infliximab,while 14(11.11%)were primary non-responders.No correlation was found between response to infliximab and patients’characteristics such as age,gender and disease duration.There was consistency between Harvey-Bradshaw index scores and serum CRP levels.The TT genotype of the rs1568885 polymorphism was significantly related to partial response(P=0.024)and resistance to infliximab(P=0.007)while the AT genotype was more frequent in partial responders(P=0.035)and in primary non-responders(P=0.032).Regarding rs1813443,the CC genotype was found to be associated with partial response(P=0.005)and primary resistance(P=0.002)to infliximab while no association was found between the rs4411591 polymorphism and the clinical response to infliximab.CONCLUSION:Based on our results,the rs1568885and rs1813443 polymorphisms are associated with clinical and biochemical response to infliximab in Greek patients with Crohn’s disease.Diamantis Thomas Maria Gazouli Theodoros Karantanos Stella Rigoglou Georgios Karamanolis Konstantinos Bramis George Zografos George E Theodoropoulos 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,13:0
14Acute coronary syndrome after infliximab therapy in a patient with Crohn’s disease显示文摘Infliximab is a potent anti-TNF antibody, which is used with great success in Crohn’s disease patients. Since its release in clinical practice, several adverse reactions have been observed. The interest in possible consequences of its administration is still high because of the recent introduction of the drug for the long-term maintenance therapy of refractory luminal and fistulizing Crohn’s disease. We present a case of acute coronary syndrome (non-STEMI) in a patient with corticoid resistant Crohn’s disease after his first dose of infliximab. By reviewing the scant articles that exist in the literature on this topic we made an effort to delineate the possible mechanisms of this phenomenon.Vasilios Panteris Anna Perdiou Vasilios Tsirimpis Demetrios Georgios Karamanolis 2006World Journal of Gastroenterology2006,12,38:0
