Comparison of Bowel Preparation in Virtual Colonoscopy (VC) - Patient Experience

ABSTRACT: The study will compare patient’s experience between those taking a standard bowel cleansing regimen with minimal laxative tagging regimen of senna and gastrofin. Additionally comparing any possible reduction in diagnostic accuracy that may ensue from an increased quantity of retained faecal residue.

Unrestricted Diet for Screening Colonoscopy

Project description:Colonoscopy is the technique of choice for the evaluation of the mucosa of the colon. To be able to do the procedure in optimal conditions, it needs to be clean. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a preparation as safe and tolerable as possible. This preparation generally consists in a low residue diet the days before the colonoscopy and in the intake of a laxative solution. In previous studies, it has been shown that the low residue diet does not play a relevant role as it was considered before. Recent studies demonstrated that reducing the days of low residue diet does not worsen the cleansing and improves the patient experience. The results of this study are required for determining the role of diet restrictive diet in colon cleansing.

Virtual Colonoscopy Using Omnipaque as a Contrast Agent

Project description:CT colonography (CTC) is a validated screening exam for colorectal cancer. The diagnostic accuracy of CTC depends on the quality of the bowel cleansing and contrast tagging of residual stool and fluid. New bowel preparation media for CTC should be assessed for their efficacy and for patient satisfaction. Iohexol is currently approved by the FDA for oral use for imaging of the gastrointestinal tract. A potential advantage of using iohexol for CTC is that low-and iso-osmolar oral contrast agents have fewer risks than hyperosmolar contrast agents, which make them ideal for use in all patients, especially those who are frail and/or have multiple co-morbidities. For example, hyperosmolar contrast agents that are accidentally aspirated into the lungs during ingestion may result in life-threatening acute pulmonary edema and severe chemical pneumonitis, which is not the case for low- and iso-osmolar contrast agents. It may even be safer to use low- or iso-osmolar contrast agents for patients undergoing CTC on the same day as their incomplete colonoscopy, since they are at risk for aspiration from being sedated for their colonoscopy. Additionally, unlike hyperosmolar contrast agents, low- and iso-osmolar contrast agents do not cause sudden and massive fluid shifts, thus eliminating the risk of dangerous electrolyte imbalances.

Gene expression after liver transplantation

Project description:The purpose of this study was to validate differentially expressed immune system related genes described in previous studies that identified tolerant LTx recipients after immunosuppressive drug (IS) weaning. Blood was collected of tolerant LTx recipients (TOL), a control group of LTx recipients with regular IS regimen (CTRL), a group of LTx recipients with minimal IS regimen (MIN) and healthy controls (HC), and groups were matched on age, sex, primary disease, time after LTx, and cytomegalovirus serostatus after LTx. Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction was used to determine expression of twenty selected genes and transcript variants in PBMCs. In conclusion, we found confounding effects of IS regimen and prior cytomegalovirus infection, on peripheral blood expression of several selected genes that were described as tolerance-associated genes by previous studies.

Virtual memory T-cells orchestrate extra-lymphoid responses conducive to resident memory

Project description:A primary immune response is typically initiated in secondary lymphoid organs. Virtual memory CD8+ T (TVM) cells are antigen-inexperienced T cells of a central-memory phenotype, acquired through self antigen-driven homeostatic proliferation. Unexpectedly, here we find that, TVM cells are composed of CCR2+ and CCR2- subsets that differentially elaborate a spectrum of effector- and memory-poised functions directly in the tissue. During a primary flu infection, TVM cells rapidly infiltrate the lung in the first day and execute early viral control. TVM cells that recognize viral antigen are retained in the tissue, clonally expand independent of secondary lymphoid organs, and preferentially give rise to tissue-resident memory cells. By orchestrating an extra-lymphoid primary response, heterogenous TVM cells bridge innate reaction and adaptive memory directly in the infected tissue.
