TL;DR: In a completely blinded evaluation of the EUS diagnosis of vascular invasion by cancer of the head of the pancreas it was not possible to find suitable morphologic parameters with clinically useful sensitivity and specificity values.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of sedation on the quality of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy: an investigator-blinded, randomized study comparing propofol with midazolam.
Alexander Meining,V. Semmler,Abdel Meguid Kassem,R. Sander,U. Frankenberger,M. Burzin,J. Reichenberger,Monther Bajbouj,C. Prinz,RM Schmid +9 more
TL;DR: Sedation with propofol sedation might increase the quality of upper endoscopy, and this finding may have a significant impact on the selection of the type of sedation, not only in terms of increasing patients' acceptance of the procedure, but also for improving the diagnostic accuracy of upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Argon plasma ablation of gastric inlet patches in the cervical esophagus may alleviate globus sensation: a pilot trial.
Alexander Meining,Monther Bajbouj,M. Preeg,J. Reichenberger,Abdel Meguid Kassem,Wolfgang Huber,S J Brockmeyer,C. Hannig,Heinz Höfler,C. Prinz,Roland M. Schmid +10 more
TL;DR: The preliminary data suggest that ablation of gastric inlet patches by APC can alleviate chronic globus sensation or sore throat, and a randomized and blinded study is warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hamdy E. Abouzeid,Abdel Meguid Kassem,Hatem A. El-mezayen,Hayaat Sharad,Shimaa Abdel Rahman,Abdel Hady A. Abdel Wahab +5 more
TL;DR: Aberrant hypermethylation at promoter region of RASSFA, MGMT, and HIC-1 genes is involved in Egyptian CRCs, and plays an important role in the initiation of disease especially ulcerative colitis–carcinoma pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
