Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative study of conventional colonoscopy and pan-colonic narrow-band imaging system in the detection of neoplastic colonic polyps: a randomized, controlled trial.
Takuya Inoue,Mitsuyuki Murano,Naoko Murano,Takanori Kuramoto,Ken Kawakami,Yosuke Abe,Eijiro Morita,Ken Toshina,Hideo Hoshiro,Yutaro Egashira,Eiji Umegaki,Kazuhide Higuchi +11 more
TL;DR: The pan-colonic NBI system improves the total number of adenomas detected, including significantly more diminutiveAdenomas, without prolongation of extubation time, and indicates that routine use of the NBI System for surveillance of diminutive adenoma may be recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kumi Ishida,Shinji Takai,Mitsuyuki Murano,Takashi Nishikawa,Takuya Inoue,Naoko Murano,Nao Inoue,Denan Jin,Eiji Umegaki,Kazuhide Higuchi,Mizuo Miyazaki +10 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that chymase plays an important role in the development of colitis via MMP-9 activation through activation in mice treated with 5% dextran sodium sulfate solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simvastatin Attenuates Intestinal Fibrosis Independent of the Anti-Inflammatory Effect by Promoting Fibroblast/Myofibroblast Apoptosis in the Regeneration/Healing Process from TNBS-Induced Colitis
Yosuke Abe,Mitsuyuki Murano,Naoko Murano,Eijiro Morita,Takuya Inoue,Ken Kawakami,Kumi Ishida,Takanori Kuramoto,Kazuki Kakimoto,Toshihiko Okada,Ken Narabayashi,Eiji Umegaki,Kazuhide Higuchi +12 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that SIMV induces anti-fibrotic activity that is not directly involved in the anti-inflammatory effect from a relatively early stage the healing process of TNBS-induced colitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
