Guy E. Boeckxstaens,Vito Annese,Stanislas Bruley des Varannes,Stanislas Chaussade,Mario Costantini,Antonello Cuttitta,J. Ignasi Elizalde,Uberto Fumagalli,Marianne Gaudric,Wout O. Rohof,André J.P.M. Smout,Jan Tack,Aeilko H. Zwinderman,Giovanni Zaninotto,Olivier R. Busch +14 more
TL;DR: After 2 years of follow-up, laparoscopic Heller's myotomy, as compared with pneumatic dilation, was not associated with superior rates of therapeutic success.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wout O. Rohof,Renato Salvador,Vito Annese,Stanislas Bruley des Varannes,Stanislas Chaussade,Mario Costantini,J. Ignasi Elizalde,Marianne Gaudric,André J.P.M. Smout,Jan Tack,Olivier R. Busch,Giovanni Zaninotto,Guy E. Boeckxstaens +12 more
TL;DR: A higher percentage of patients with type II achalasia (based on manometric tracings) are treated successfully with pneumatic dilation or laparoscopic Heller myotomy than patients with types I and III a Chalasia.
CLINICAL—ALIMENTARY TRACT Outcomes of Treatment for Achalasia Depend on Manometric Subtype
Wout O. Rohof,Renato Salvador,V. Annese,Stanislas Bruley,Stanislas Chaussade,Mario Costantini,J. Ignasi Elizalde,Marianne Gaudric,Andre J. P. M. Smout,Jan Tack,Olivier R. Busch,Giovanni Zaninotto,Guy Boeckxstaens +12 more
TL;DR: The European achalasia trial as mentioned in this paper evaluated whether manometric subtype was associated with response to treatment in a large population of patients treated with either pneumatic dilation (PD) or laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM), which have comparable rates of success.
Journal ArticleDOI

Miquel Sans,Julián Panés,Esther Ardite,J. Ignasi Elizalde,Yolanda Arce,Montserrat Elena,Antonio Palacín,J.Carlos Fernández–Checa,Donald C. Anderson,Roy R. Lobb,Josep M. Piqué +10 more
TL;DR: Induction of colitis in rats by TNBS is followed by up-regulation of endothelial VCAM-1, which is major determinants of leukocyte recruitment to the inflamed intestine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lack of prognostic influence of circulating tumor cells in peripheral blood of patients with colorectal cancer
Xavier Bessa,J. Ignasi Elizalde,Loreto Boix,Virginia Piñol,Antonio M. Lacy,Joan Saló,Josep M. Piqué,Antoni Castells +7 more
TL;DR: Preoperative detection of blood circulating tumor cells by means of reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction of CEA does not have prognostic significance in patients with colorectal cancer.
