BACKGROUND
Infiltration of IgG4 positive plasma cells has been detected in the colonic mucosa of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). The aim of the study was to investigate the association between colonic mucosal infiltration of IgG4 plasma cells and the presence, activity, extension, and duration of UC.
METHODSIn this case-control study (2009-2014), 102 subjects (84 with UC/18 controls) were enrolled. Clinical records and rectosigmoid biopsies of UC patients were selected, and biopsies were stained with IgG4 monoclonal antibodies. IgG4 positive plasma cells were counted by a single pathologist.
RESULTSAmongst 84 patients with UC, 73.8% had UC without primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), and 26.2% had UC with PSC. IgG4 plasma cells were seen in 35 (41.7%) patients with UC and 0% of controls (p = 0.001). The mean amount of IgG4 containing plasma cells was significantly different between active and inactive patients with UC, although it was not significantly different between UC patients with and without PSC. The presence of IgG4 infiltration was significantly associated with the extension and duration of the disease. Furthermore, IgG4 count had a sensitivity/specificity of 78.6%/83.3% for the diagnosis of UC.
CONCLUSIONOur study revealed the diagnostic role of IgG4 plasma cells in the colonic mucosa of patients with UC and its association with activity, extension, and duration of disease.

From mid-December of 2019 a newly diagnosed Corona virus with a highly human to human transmission rate was discovered in china which rapidly involved many countries and became pandemic. Although most infected cases are mild but this virus can cause severe lung injury which lead to severe mortality and morbidity. The mortality rate of this virus is high in immunosuppressed patient or with previous medical disorder. Many Inflammatory bowel disease patient are using immunosuppressive or immunomodulating agents which has raised the concern of severe disease in these patients.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) associated with various cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC), could be collected from body fluids easily. Our aims were to determine the expression level of HOTTIP lncRNA in plasma samples of healthy individuals and CRC patients as well as their relationship with clinico-pathological characteristics of patients. First, total RNA was extracted from the plasma samples of 100 subjects including 50 patients and 50 age and sex matched healthy persons. Then, gene expression was measured using real-time PCR technique. The sensitivity and specificity of HOTTIP dysregulation in CRC and healthy individual’s plasma was measured by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. As compared with healthy controls, HOTTIP lncRNA was over expressed in a statistically significant manner in plasma samples of patients (P = 0.001). Significant relationship between HOTTIP expression and positive family history of CRC was observed, too (P = 0.04). The ROC curve analysis showed an AUC value of 0.775, a specificity of 82%, a sensitivity of 76%, with a cut off value equal to 2.40 (P = 0.001). HOTTIP transcript can be proposed as a new biomarker for early diagnosis due to the increased expression in plasma samples of patients with CRC and the relatively high sensitivity and specificity.

Patients with a stoma have a 5% developing parastomal varices chance, which tend to repetitive massive and life-threatening hemorrhages. Treatment of choice in parastomal varices have not been established, and Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS) has been revealed as the most successful measure.We report a hemodynamically unstable patient with the history of Ulcerative Colitis (UC) & Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) with colostomy, because of colon cancer who presented with massive parastomal bleeding. Non-operative treatments and TIPS was failed to control the symptoms. Color Doppler ultrasound showed a hepato-fugal flow. The direct antegrade technique, using Sodium Tetradecyl Sulfate (STS 1%) and glue-Lipiodol, was applied under ultrasonography guidance, and complete stoppage of bleeding was achieved. No immediate or late complication or follow-up recurrence were noted after 2 month.In case of hepatofugal flow, direct percutaneous mesenteric parastomal venous access, and sclerotherapy is a rapid and relatively safe procedure for parastomal variceal bleeding.

Polycythemia vera (PV) is classified as a myeloproliferative disorder (MPD). Such patients are prone to both thrombotic and hemorrhagic events. Although gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding is not a prominent manifestation of PV, it would be life threatening and necessitating hospital admission and blood transfusion if it occurs. GI hemorrhage in these patients may be due to Aspirin usage, peptic ulcer disease (PUD), acquired VonWillbrand disease, Dieulafoy lesion (DL), Mallory Weiss tear, and esophageal and gastric varices. DL is an enlarged, thick-walled artery in the muscularis mucosa with a small submucosal defect. In this case report, we describe a 65-year-old man with history of PV presented with a massive upper GI bleeding. After a therapeutic endoscopic hemostasis failure and reoccurrence of bleeding during hospital admission, an abdominal computed tomography (CT) was ordered, which revealed an aberrant artery originated from aorta directly into the stomach. An angiographic embolization was considered for the patient, which was successfully performed. Our patient was complicated by splenic infarction due to splenic collateral arteries embolization and the overwhelming thrombotic tendency of the patient himself due to the history of PV. Fortunately, our patient’s signs and symptoms responded to supportive therapies and eventually he discharged well.

BACKGROUNDA dramatic rise in the rate of clostridium difficile infection (CDI) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been reported in recent years.METHODSIn this observational case control study, 65 patients were included and were divided into two groups of IBD+CDI as case group and IBD without CDI as control group.RESULTS35 patients who had positive test for clostridium difficile were assigned to the case group. The control group consisted of 30 patients with negative test for clostridium difficile. Pancolitis was seen in the cases more statistically significant than the controls and proctitis was seen more among the controls than the cases (p =0.001). The cases were on immunosuppressive (p=0.001) and antibiotic (p =0.02) therapy more than the controls. Colonoscopic findings revealed more severe and extensive inflammation among the cases versus milder inflammation among the controls, but these differences were not statistically significant (p =0.2). Colectomy was seen in 10% of controls and none of the cases and this difference was statistically significant (p value=0.05). More fecal calprotectin were seen among the cases than the controls and this difference was statistically significant (p <0.05)CONCLUSIONThis study showed more clostridium difficile infection among the patients on antibiotic or immunosuppressive therapy. Pathological investigation revealed more severe and extensive inflammation among the cases than the controls. Cases had clinically more severe signs and symptoms with higher mayo scores than the controls. ESR(erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and fecal calprotectin were higher in patients with positive clostridium difficile infection and serum albumin was lower in such patients.Keywords: Clostridium Difficile, Ulcerative Colitis, Infection}

Biliary papillomatosis is a disorder characterized by numerous adenomatous polyps of variable distribution and extent in intrahepatic bile ducts. It should be considered as a premalignant condition because a high proportion of the lesions undergo malignant transformation. In this report, we present a patient with abdominal pain and jaundice.
According to his presenting signs and symptoms, ERCP was done for him and multiple biopsies were taken from the common bile duct. Due to high grade dysplasia in the pathological report, Whipple surgery was performed and specimens were sent for microscopic evaluation. Histological examination showed intraductal biliary papillomatosis.Keywords: Common bile duct, Gallbladder, Cholangiography} -
Govaresh, Volume:21 Issue: 1, 2016, PP 48 -54BackgroundImprovements in imaging techniques has led to an increase in the number of diagnosed pancreatic cysts. Although most of the detected cases are benign, a significant percentage of them are malignant or are potentially malignant. Currently, endosonography, and analysis of cyst morphology, fine needle aspiration (FNA) of the cyst contents, and measurement of the amylase and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels of the aspirated fluid are the common methods used for evaluating such lesions (80% accuracy in the final diagnosis). We have used these same techniques to analyze cystic lesions of the pancreas, in two referring centers in Iran.Materials And MethodsThis is a descriptive case series study. In addition to demographic information and findings of the cystic morphology, we determined the cytology of the centrifuged sediments of cystic fluid aspirations, and the amylase and CEA levels of the fluid.ResultsSixty eight patients were included in the study with an average age of 51 years. 68% of the participants were female (n=46). Analysis of the lesions was performed based on the cytology findings as well as the other results (CEA, amylase, cyst morphology, and history of pancreatitis). The patients who were diagnosed as having pseudocysts were the youngest group, with an average age of 41 years, and those with cystic adenocarcinoma were the oldest group, with an average age of 62 years. The most common types of lesions were pseudocysts (n=18, 26.5%), mucinous cystic neoplasms (n=11, 16%), serous cyst adenomas (n=10, 14.7%), intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (n=9, 13.2%), and cystic adenocarcinoma (n=9, 13.2%). The most common location of cysts was the head of pancreas (n=25, 35.2%). Excluding the neuroendocrine tumors, all other types of lesions were more common in women than men. Septation in the cysts was observed in cystic adenocarcinomas, serous cystadenomas, and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs). Lesions smaller than 2 cm were found most frequently in IPMNs, endocrine tumors, and simple tumors whilst pseudocysts were all greater than 2 cm in maximum diameter.Conclusion47% of the patients in this study had malignant or premalignant lesions, which despite being asymptomatic, they needed follow-up imaging or surgery. Endosonography played an important role in the diagnosis of the cystic tumors of the pancreas. Diagnosis of premalignant lesions and providing appropriate treatment increase patients life expectancy. Diagnosis of benign cysts, leads to fewer unnecessary surgeries.Keywords: Mucinous cystic neoplasm, Serous cystadenoma, Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm, Fine needle aspiration}

Govaresh, Volume:20 Issue: 3, 2015, PP 208 -212Annular pancreas (AP) is a rare congenital abnormality in which pancreatic tissue completely surround the duodenum. Presentation of AP in adulthood is very rare and obstructive jaundice is one of the uncommon manifestations of AP in adults. Herein; we reported a 47 years old woman who presented with icterus, mid common bile duct stricture and annular pancreas. She was diagnosed as pancreas cancer three months after surgery. Although AP presenting with jaundice is rare but is indicative of significant relationship with periampullary malignancies and requires a complete investigation of these cancers and close follow up.Keywords: Annular Pancreas, Obstructive Jaundice, periampullary malignancy}

Gastroenterology and Hepatology From Bed to Bench Journal, Volume:8 Issue: 2, Spring 2015, PP 140 -145Aimthe aim of this study was to investigate the necessity of screening for celiac disease in idiopathic osteoporotic patients.BackgroundOsteopenia and osteoporosis are well-known and prevalent complications of celiac disease. However, the relative prevalence of celiac disease among osteoporotic populations is not known, and the benefit of screening for celiac disease among the osteoporotic population remains controversial.Patients andMethodsWe evaluated a total of 560 individuals, 460 with osteoporosis and 100 healthy subjects, from the rheumatology clinic in Imam Khomeini and Shariati hospital by IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase (anti-tTG) for celiac disease. Then individuals with positive serologic test underwent upper GI Endoscopy & 2nd part duodenum biopsies. The clinical findings were evaluated in both groups and were compared with each other.ResultsFive (1.08%) of 460 patients with osteoporosis and 1 (1%) of 100 subjects without osteoporosis had celiac disease by positive serologic & pathology results. Three patients with positive serology & pathology results were female. All patients in osteoporotic group had at least one other symptom of celiac disease. Two of them had anemia and others had chronic abdominal pain, recurrent oral aphtous lesion & chronic bloating.ConclusionIn the present study, the prevalence of celiac disease in osteoporotic patients is not high enough to justify recommendation for serologic screening of celiac disease in all patients with idiopathic osteoporosis; but in osteoporotic patients with other celiac or gastrointestinal symptoms and signs, for example iron deficiency anemia, chronic dyspepsia and bloating, constipation or diarrhea and recurrent aphtous lesions, it is necessary to evaluate for celiac disease.Keywords: Celiac Disease, Osteoporosis, IgA anti, tissue transglutaminas}

BackgroundCurrently, non-invasive methods for screening atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer are lacking. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of serological parameters including serum pepsinogen I (PGI), pepsinogen II (PGII) and pepsinogen I: II ratio for the screening atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer.MethodsThe study population consisted of 132 dyspeptic patients who had undergone upper endoscopy with biopsy. Blood samples for ELISA assays of serum PGI, PGII and IgG antibodies against Helicobacter pylori were drawn. Comparison between the two groups was done by Student’s t- test, and Mann Whitney test. Cut-off points were calculated using receiver operating curves (ROC).ResultsMean (±SD) age of the study population was 51.4 (±15.5) years. Values of PGI and PG ratio decreased significantly in the atrophic gastritis as compared with the control group (p<0.05). Values of PG and PG ratio didn’t show any significant difference between the gastric cancer and control group (p>0.05). For patients with atrophic gastritis, the area under the ROC for PGI was 0.639 (95% CI:0.538-0.741, p=0.008) in which the best cut-off value was 40μg/L (sensitivity 90%, specificity 67%, accuracy 69%, negative predictive value 92%, YI: 0.429). The area under the ROC for PG ratio was 0.711 (95% CI: 0.617–0.806, p 0.0001) and the best cutoff value was 8 (sensitivity 71%, specificity 71%, accuracy 71%, negative predictive value 86%,YI: 0.431).ConclusionIt seems that PGI, PGI: PGII ratio is potential biomarkers for screening atrophic gastritis with high sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and negative predictive value. Serology could be used as a screening method for the detection of precancerous states due to its convenience, relative low cost and safety.Keywords: Pepsinogens, Atrophic gastritis, Gastric cancer, Biomarkers}

Govaresh, Volume:15 Issue: 3, 2011, PP 180 -187BackgroundEndosonography is a distinct method in evaluating gastrointestinal (GI) structural lesions, particularly in the pancreatobiliary system. This procedure has made a fundamental change in the diagnosis of pancreatic mass lesions through fine needle aspiration (FNA). This study aims to evaluate the results and efficacy of endosonographic fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) in patients presenting with solid pancreatic masses.MethodsThis was a descriptive, prospective, case series study of patients who presented with solid pancreatic masses to Imam Khomeini Hospital, Tehran, Iran over a one year period (from November 20092010-) In order to determine false negative cases, patients were followed for 6 to 12 months.ResultsA total of 53 patients underwent EUS-FNA with no complications. The results were diagnostic in 46 (87%) cases. The majority of patients were male (68%) and 81% had a mass in the pancreatic head. Cytopathology results revealed 36 (68%) adenocarcinomas, 7 (13%) other malignancies, 3 (6%) benign lesions and 7 (13%) nondiagnostic cases. The frequency of nondiagnostic results was significantly more in masses smaller than 3 cm (6 vs. 1, p < 0.002). Patients with nondiagnostic results were younger than those with malignant cytopathologies (52 ± 7.5 vs. 66 ± 7.5 years, p < 0.001). Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy of EUS-FNA in adenocarcinoma cases were 88%, 100%, 100%, 70% and 90%, respectively.ConclusionEUS–FNA is an effective and safe procedure in the histopathologic diagnosis of pancreatic tumors.

Govaresh, Volume:15 Issue: 3, 2011, PP 195 -201BackgroundHepatitis B is still a major health problem in many parts of the world. In some developing countries the most common cause of chronic hepatitis and liver cirrhosis is hepatitis B virus (HBV). The progression of chronic hepatitis B to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) include such viral factors as genotype C and high levels of serum HBV DNA in addition to host factors such as older age, male gender, obesity and diabetes. Other factors that influence progression to cirrhosis and HCC are simultaneous alcohol use, and co-infections with HIV, HDV and HCV. The present study aims to determine the correlations between serum HBV DNA viral load and related factors. In this study, new HBV DNA and ALT levels that enable better separation between different stages of this disease are presented.Materials And MethodsChronic hepatitis B patients who presented to the Liver Clinic at Imam Khomeini Hospital in 1388 who were HBsAg positive for more than six months were enrolled in this study. Patients who had previously been treated or those with concurrent HIV, HCV and HDV infections as well as those with autoimmune hepatitis and fatty liver were excluded. Patients’ data, HbeAg state, demographics, liver enzymes, HBV DNA level, smoking history, cirrhosis and disease stage were recorded.In order to better differentiation between non-replicative and reactive chronic hepatitis B patients, statistical analysis was done to distinguish between their HBV DNA levels. Evaluation of the relationships between HBV DNA level and the above mentioned variables was performed.ResultsHigh Levels of HBV DNA correlated with HBeAg positive state, smoking (p=0.005) and elevated liver enzymes (p=0.002). The cut-off value for ALT level that separated HbeAg-positive group (immunoclearance and immunotolerancephases) was set at 42 U/l on the roc curve(r=0.889 area under curve) with 100% sensitivity and 67.7% specificity. The cut-off value for serum HBV DNA levels that differentiated between the Hbe Ag-negative group (non-replicative and reactive phases) was set at 3000 IU/ml on the roc curve (r=0.987 area under curve) with 97% sensitivity and 92% specificity.Coclusion:The present study determined that serum HBV DNA at a level of 3000 IU/ml was a better level for classification of HBeAg-negative patients into the non-replicative and reactive groups.

Govaresh, Volume:15 Issue: 3, 2011, PP 188 -194BackgroundE-cadherin is a calcium-dependent molecule that contributes to intercellular adhesion. Its proper functioning is important in the maintenance of epithelial structure and integrity. E-cadherin serves as a very important tumor suppressor. In this study, we aim to determine the frequency of E-cadherin expression aberrancy and itsrelationship to the biological behavior of gastric adenocarcinoma.MethodsA total of 52 patients with gastric cancer who underwent gastrectomies in Imam Khomeini Hospital were investigated in a cross-sectional study. Their tissues were stained by immunohistochemistry methods toinvestigate the expression of E-cadherin. Patients’ information including age, ge nder, Helicobacter pyloriinfection, lesion location, adenocarcinoma subtype, metastasis, differentiation and regional lymph node involvement, depth of invasion and staging were collected and compared.ResultsAge, gender, Helicobacter pylori infection, lesion location, regional lymph node involvement, metastasis, depth of invasion, differentiation and staging did not have a statistically significant relationship with abnormal E-cadherin expression. Abnormal E-cadherin expression was significantly higher in the diffuse sub-type ascompared with the intestinal type (90.9% vs. 48.8%, p = 0.016).ConclusionsThe present study assessed the frequency and relationship between abnormal E-cadherin expression and certain biological variables of tumor behavior in Iranian patients with gastric adenocarcinoma. A significant correlation existed only between diffuse sub-typing and reduced E-cadherin expression.Keywords:.

There are limited data on the association between psychological status and GERD in the world, in general, and in Iran, in particular. This study was conducted to determine the role of psychological factors in causing GERD.Materials And Methods1,016 randomly-selected subjects were invited for a face-to-face interview. 1,000 persons participated in this study (age range: 18-40 years). Those who reported heartburn and/or regurgitation, at least once a week, during the last 12 months were defined as GERD patients. Controls were persons who did not complian of those symptoms. The psychosocial status was assessed by a reliable general health questionnaire for Iranian, GHQ-28.ResultsThe prevalence of "at least weekly GERD" was 12.3%. Somatic disorders (OR: 3.50; 95% CI: 2.17-5.66), anxiety (OR: 4.02; 95% CI: 2.51-6.43), social disorders (OR: 1.95; 95% CI: 1.21-3.17), and depression (OR: 3.29; 95% CI: 1.95-5.50), increasing age and obesity were associated with developing GERD.ConclusionThe prevalence of GERD in northern Iran is more than that in most Asian countries and is comparable to Western countries. The result of this study indicates significant association between psychiatric disorders with reflux symptoms. The psychosocial factors may play important roles in the production of GERD symptoms. -
مجله سازمان نظام پزشکی جمهوری اسلامی ایران، سال بیست و پنجم شماره 2 (پیاپی 98، تابستان 1386)، صص 213 -224بیماری سلیاک، یک اختلال شایع خودایمنی است که در فرد مستعد از نظر ژنتیکی، با دریافت پروتئین گلوتن که در گندم، چاودار و جو وجود دارد، برانگیخته می شود. برخلاف عقیده قبلی که این بیماری را یک بیماری گوارشی خالص می شناختند، این اختلال یک بیماری سیستمیک با تظاهرات گوناگون می باشد. بیماری سلیاک با ژن هایی از نوع DQ2 و DQ8 که به وسیله آنتی ژن های HLA کلاس 2 کد می شوند، ارتباط دارد. در دهه های گذشته، بیماری سلیاک یک اختلال نادر و منحصر به دوران کودکی شناخته می شد. در حالی که در حال حاضر یک بیماری شایع در نظر گرفته می شود که امکان بروز آن در هر سنی هست. آنزیم ترانس گلوتامیناز بافتی، هم درپاتوژنز بیماری نقش دارد و هم در تشخیص و پیگیری بیماری کاربرد دارد. بیماری سلیاک فعال با تظاهرات روده ای یا غیرروده ای، آتروفی و از بین رفتن پرزهای روده ای، هیپرپلازی کریپت های روده ای و تست سرولوژی مثبت آنتی بادی بر علیه اندومیزیال یا ترانس گلوتامیناز بافتی مشخص می شود. بیوپسی روده باریک به عنوان استاندارد طلایی برای تشخیص بیماری سلیاک شناخته شده است. لیکن گاه نتایج منفی کاذب دارد. در برخی از بیماران ضایعات روده به صورت تکه تکه می باشد و ممکن است نمونه برداری از قسمت های سالم روده انجام شده باشد. همچنین در بعضی بیماران ضایعات مخاطی در ابتدای ژوژنوم شدیدتر است و با آندوسکوپ معمولی نمی توان از این قسمت نمونه گرفت. گاه تظاهرات بیماری با علایمی نظیر کم خونی فقر آهن، پوکی استخوان، ضایعات پوستی شبه هرپس، افزایش آنزیم های کبدی و اختلالات عصبی می باشد. همراهی بیماری با دیابت نوع 1، بیماری های تیروییدی، برخی اختلالات خودایمنی و بدخیمی ها شناخته شده است. درمان، عدم مصرف غلات حاوی گلوتن و فرآورده های آن در تمام دوره زندگی می باشد. رژیم فاقد گلوتن موجب بهبود بسیاری از علایم بیماری می شود.
