RESUMO
The incidence of neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) is increasing globally, and gastrointestinal NEN (GI-NEN) is the most common type of NEN. Diagnosis and treatment of GI-NEN are quite different, according to tumor's location, size, background, cell origin, and pathogenesis. Digestive endoscopy has unique advantages in detecting of GI-NEN. However, endoscopist should not perform endoscopic resection arbitrarily, due to the high heterogeneity and complexity of GI-NEN. We need to establish the concept about comprehensive assessment for GI-NEN, including medical history and physical signs, serology, imaging, radionuclide and end·oscopic examination, to make an individualized treatment after rigorous multidisciplinary discussion.

Objective To discuss the application of endoscopic injection of lauromacrogol and methylene blue in sclerotherapy of esophageal varices. Methods The clinical data of 62 patients with esophageal varices underwent endoscopic treatment from June 2014 to February 2016 were collected, including 26 cases treated by endoscopic injection of lauromacrogol (A group) and 36 cases treated by endoscopic injection of lauromacrogol and methylene blue (B group). The treatment effects, success rate of hemostasis, safety, complications and follow-up recurrence were compared between the two groups. Results The total effective rate and success rate of emergency hemostasis in B group were slightly higher than those in A group (P > 0.05). The times of treatment for eliminating esophageal varices in B group was less than that in A group, and the duration of treatment was shorter than that in A group (P < 0.05). The long-term rebleeding rate and total bleeding rate in B group were lower than those in A group (P < 0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications and recurrence rate in B group were lower than those in A group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Endoscopic injection of lauromacrogol and methylene blue is effective in the treatment of esophageal varices, and the hemostatic effect is good. The incidence of postoperative complications and the recurrence rate are low.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of Weile Powder (WLP) on bicarbonate transporters in rats with gastric ulcers, and to probe its functional mechanisms.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The 48 SD rats were randomly divided into the normal control group, the model group, the low dose WLP group (at the daily dose of 0.075 g/mL), the middle dose WLP group (at the daily dose of 0.150 g/mL), the high dose WLP group (at the daily dose of 0.030 g/mL), and the ranitidine group (at the daily dose of 0.030 g/mL), 8 in each group. The gastric ulcer rat model was prepared by the glacial acetic acid cauterization method. Rats in each medication group were administered from the 2nd day of modeling. Rats were sacrificed after 14-day successive medication. The protein was extracted from the ulcer tissue. The protein expressions of solute carrier26A3 (SLC26A3)and solute carrier26A6 (SLC26A6) were detected using Western blot. The gastric ulcer and its peripheral tissue were sectioned. The changes of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) were measured by immunofluorescence.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with the model control group, the expression levels of SLC26A3 increased in the high dose WLP group and the ranitidine group with statistical difference (P < 0.05). The expression levels of SLC26A6 increased in the high and middle dose WLP groups and the ranitidine group with statistical difference (P < 0.05). The expression level of CFTR also obviously increased in the high and middle dose WLP groups (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>WLP could elevate the expression levels of SLC26A6, SLC26A3, and CFTR, increase the secretion of bicarbonate, thus protecting the gastric mucosa.</p>
