Because advanced gastric cancer shows poor prognosis, it is important to detect early gastric cancer or precancerous gastric adenoma patients who have a cure rate of 95% or more. Moreover, a large part of early gastric cancer can be completely resected by endoscopic resection, thus ensuring a very high quality of life for patients. However, there are currently no markers that can be used for diagnosis of early gastric cancer or gastric adenoma. In addition, the biggest problem after endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer is metachronous recurrence of the cancer, which requires repeated endoscopic resection or additional surgical gastrectomy. However, there are no discovered markers for prediction of recurrence. Liquid biopsy is a method of obtaining body fluids such as gastric juice or effusion through an endoscopic inlet during gastroscopy or colonoscopy and blood. Based on the advanced analysis method, liquid biopsy reveals more genetic information than tissue biopsy. Therefore, it is highly likely to become an essential factor in future personalized medicine. Therefore, this study was designed to identify whether tumor's molercular profiling based on tissue or blood could be used for prediction of prognosis and diagnosis of early gastric cancer and precancerous gastric adenoma.
The first proton therapy treatments in the Netherlands have taken place in 2018. Due to the physical properties of protons, proton therapy has tremendous potential to reduce the radiation dose to the healthy, tumour-surrounding tissues. In turn, this leads to less radiation-induced complications, and a decrease in the formation of secondary tumours. The Netherlands has spearheaded the development of the model-based approach (MBA) for the selection of patients for proton therapy when applied to prevent radiation-induced complications. In MBA, a pre-treatment in-silico planning study is done, comparing proton and photon treatment plans in each individual patient, to determine (1) whether there is a significant difference in dose in the relevant organs at risk (ΔDose), and (2) whether this dose difference translates into an expected clinical benefit in terms of NormalTissue Complication Probabilities (ΔNTCP). To translate ΔDose into ΔNTCP, NTCP-models are used, which are prediction models describing the relation between dose parameters and the likelihood of radiation-induced complications. The Dutch Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (NVRO) setup the selection criteria for proton therapy in 2015, taking into account toxicity and NTCP. However, NTCP-models can be affected by changes in the irradiation technique. Therefore, it is paramount to continuously update and validate these NTCP-models in subsequent patient cohorts treated with new techniques. In ProTRAIT, a Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR)data infrastructure for both clinical and 3D image and 3D dose information has been developed and deployed for proton therapy in the Netherlands. It allows for a prospective, standardized, multi-centric data from all Dutch proton and a representative group of photon therapy patients.
Introduction It has been shown that some quality indicators in endoscopy can be improved through educational interventions. There are marked differences in the proportion of incomplete polypectomies among endoscopists. The effectiveness of measures to improve it has not been evaluated. Objective The main objective is to evaluate whether a training intervention or the notification of the individual proportion of incomplete polypectomies (those in which post-polypectomy biopsies of the resection margin show tissue other than normal mucosa) can improve this proportion. As secondary objectives, we will compare the proportion of fragmented polypectomies and adverse events. We will evaluate the factors associated with incomplete excision or failed cold polypectomy, as well as the individual evolution of the participants. Methods Non-pharmacological clinical trial involving endoscopists with> 1 year of experience and patients scheduled for colonoscopy. After each polypectomy, 2 additional biopsies will be taken and evaluated centrally by a blind pathologist. In a first phase, the basal rate of the participants will be evaluated. After it, the endoscopists will receive a course on endoscopic polypectomy and the other their rate of complete resection. The number of polyps required will vary depending on the number of endoscopists The primary objective will be compared using logistic regression models based on generalized estimating equations (GEE), taking into account the within-subject correlation.
The investigators hypothesize that withholding hydrocortisone during the peri-operation in patients with pituitary adenomas whose hypothalamus pituitary adrenal axis are intact are safe.
We hypothesize that the effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) for pain relief among patients with pituitary adenomas undergoing transnasal transsphenoidal surgeries are non-inferior to tramadol. We aim to launch a single-center randomized clinical trial to verify this hypothesis.
It is a prospective randomized controlled study to look for effectiveness of fibrin glue to prevent bleeding in high-risk patients after endoscopic submucosal dissection in gastric neoplasm.
A deep learning based system to calculate the proportion of Boston Bowel Prep Scale (BBPS) score of 0-1 during withdrawal phase has been constructed previously. This multi-center study is going to perform a prospective observational study to validate the threshold of the adequate proportion.
This study is to prospectively compare the standard supine (control group) and the semi-sitting position (head elevation of 30°; intervention group) in endoscopic endonasal pituitary surgery.
Colorectal carcinoma (CRC) is the third most common cancer in male and female worldwide. In India, it is the fourth most common cause of cancer in males and third most common cancer in female. Age, smoking, colonic adenomatous polyp, family history are traditional risk factor for CRC. The vast majority of CRC results from malignant transformation from adenoma, which is called as adenoma carcinoma sequence. These adenomatous polyps grows slowly over many years and malignant transformation eventually occurs over 10 years. So, the early detection and removal of polyp at early stage should benefit in preventing CRC.
