Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors for gallbladder cancer. An international collaborative case–control study
Brian L. Strom,Roger D. Soloway,Jaime Rios-Dalenz,Hector A. Rodriguez-Martinez,Suzanne L West,Suzanne L West,Judith L. Kinman,Marcia Polansky,Jesse A. Berlin +8 more
TL;DR: In a case-control study at four hospitals in La Paz, Bolivia, and at one hospital in Mexico City, Mexico, 80-four patients with newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed gallbladder cancer were compared with 126 control subjects without stones and with 264 control subjects with cholelithiasis or choledocholithiasis without cancer as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of high altitude on platelet counts, thrombopoietin and erythropoietin levels in young Bolivian airmen visiting the Andes.
John G Hudson,Angela L Bowen,Pilar Navia,Jaime Rios-Dalenz,Andrew J. Pollard,David J. Williams,Donald Heath +6 more
TL;DR: A significant and sustained elevation in platelet numbers within 48 h of ascent to high altitude is demonstrated and a role for tpo as a mediator of the increased platelet count is not supported, but these data do not discount epo as a potential candidate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum CEA and CA 19-9: potential future diagnostic or screening tests for gallbladder cancer?
Brian L. Strom,Greg Maislin,Suzanne L West,Barbara Atkinson,Meenhard Herlyn,Scott H. Saul,Hector A. Rodriguez-Martinez,Jaime Rios-Dalenz,Dimitrios Iliopoulos,Roger D. Soloway +9 more
TL;DR: Blood specimens were sought from patients with cancer of the gallbladder and on controls of similar age and sex undergoing upper abdominal surgery for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and CA 19‐9, with the former being a better test than the latter.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Epidemiology of Cancer of the Extra-Hepatic Biliary Tract in Bolivia
TL;DR: Differences in disease incidence between Bolivia and the US could not be fully explained by differences in age, sex, or racial distributions and studies designed to investigate the causes could provide important clues to disease aetiology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathophysiology of Tumor Progression in Human Gallbladder: Flow Cytometry, CEA, and CA 19-9 Levels in Bile and Serum in Different Stages of Gallbladder Disease
Brian L. Strom,Dimitrios Iliopoulos,Barbara Atkinson,Meenhard Herlyn,Suzanne L West,Greg Maislin,Scott H. Saul,Michael A. Varello,Hector A. Rodriguez-Martinez,Jaime Rios-Dalenz,Roger D. Soloway +10 more
TL;DR: It appears that the progression from normal tissue to invasive adenocarcinoma results in increased production of these antigens and often in loss of cell polarity as well, i.e., inability to prevent leakage of the antIGens into the serum.
