(1976)We reported the final results obtained in a group of 30 patients with gastric cancer confined to the mucosa or submucosa (early gastric cancer) and in 29 cases with cancer infiltration up to the muscularis propria (intermediate ...
-
(Sociedad Médica de Santiago, 2004-01)Heartburn and regurgitation are considered highly specific symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux. A considerable number of patients with these symptoms do not have endoscopic signs of esophagitis. Aim: To study the ...

(1990)Epithelial alterations in pancreatic ducts may have a premalignant nature. We compared the incidence of different lesions in 49 pancreatic cancer specimens compared to 100 controls. Simple hyperplasia, mucosecretory ...
-
(2006)Background: Obesity is an important risk for pathological gastroesophageal reflux. Aim: To assess the effects of gastric bypass on obese subjects with erosive esophagitis. Patients and methods: Sixty two morbid obese ...
-
(2002)It is well known that in patients with Barrett's esophagus (BE), even after antireflux surgery, intestinal metaplasia can progress to dysplasia or even adenocarcinoma. However, the opposite - that is regression of dysplastic ...
-
(ELSEVIER, 2006-02)Gastric bypass in patients with morbid obesity should be an excellent antireflux procedure, because no acid is produced at the small gastric pouch anal no duodenal reflux is present, due to the long Roux-en-Y limb. Five ...
-
(2009)Sterol receptor element-binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPAR-α) mRNA expression was assessed in liver as signaling mechanisms associated with steatosis in obese patients. ...
-
(1975)This report showed the survival figures for gastric cancer in Chile. For the whole group, a survival rate of 6.6% was obtained. This figure can be divided into 19% for the resected cases and 0% for the non-resected patients.In ...

(1997)Parameters related to hepatic oxidative stress, cell injury, and liver histology were determined in control rats and in animals treated with 3,3',5- triiodothyronine (T3), after in vitro perfusion under normoxic or ischemia- ...
-
(2006)The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that induction of cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) in the liver of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is correlated both with the in vivo activity ...
-
(ELSEVIER, 2005-02)Objective: Folate depletion and hyperhomocysteinemia increase the risk for hepatic alcoholic damage and promote oxidative stress in animals. In addition, some investigators have reported an inverse association between serum ...
-
(2008)CYP2E1 enzyme is related to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) due to its ability for reactive oxygen species production, which can be influenced by polymorphisms in the gene. The aim of this study was to investigate ...
