4.Detection of H.pylory in the digestive endoscopy
Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):54-55
1668 patients (male: 1,099, female: 569) experienced the epigastric pain, dyspepsia,nausea, weight loss, digestive bleeding received the endoscopic diagnosis for inflamatory and ulceration, histological diagnosis and detection of H.pylori. The results have shown that the rate of possitive H.pylory infection in men was higher than this in women (60.28% compared with 51.80%). The test’s sensitivity and specificity were 93-98% and 98%, respectively.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Small-caliber esophagogastroduodenoscopy (scEGD) was developed to facilitate unsedated EGD, and has many advantages over sedated EGD in terms of costs and complications. This study compared the feasibility and tolerance of scEGD with unsedated conventional EGD (cEGD), and examined the effect of the endoscopic diameter on the patients' tolerance. METHODS: A total of 114 patients who were referred for a diagnostic EGD was randomly allocated to undergo either scEGD (GIF XP260, Olympus, diameter 6.5 mm; n=57) or cEGD (GIF XQ240, Olympus, diameter 9.0 mm; n=57). After EGD, the patients and endoscopists completed questionnaires on the level of discomfort, satisfaction and acceptance of the examination. RESULTS: Patients in the scEGD group reported significantly less discomfort (choking, pain and nausea) and more overall satisfaction than those in the cEGD group. Patients in the scEGD group were more willing to choose the same procedure again if medically indicated. According to multivariate analysis, the ultrathin endoscopic diameter itself was positively associated with the increased patients' satisfaction (odds ratio 3.07, p=0.003). CONCLUSIONS: scEGD has comparable feasibility and accuracy but is more tolerable than cEGD. scEGD may have a role in clinical practice by minimizing the level of discomfort during unsedated EGD.

7.Megaduodenum with Duodenal Diospyrobezoars.
Clinical Endoscopy 2015;48(5):436-439
Bezoars are retained masses of ingested materials accumulating within the gastrointestinal track. While gastric bezoars are often observed, duodenal bezoars are rarely reported. A 77-year-old man who had frequently consumed persimmons and had never undergone gastric surgery had symptoms of epigastric pain and early satiety for 10 days. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed many diospyrobezoars in a severely distended duodenal bulb, otherwise known as megaduodenum. The patient's treatment consisted of repeated endoscopic removal of the bezoars by using a retrieval net.

8.Endoscopy in the diagnosis and management of esophageal motility disorders.
Chinese Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2012;15(7):656-658
With the development of optics and mechanics, endoscopic technologies are not only used as a simple diagnostic method, but also applied in therapy. Since the beginning of the 21st century, minimally invasive medicine has become the development trend. Many novel technologies have appeared, such as endoscopic mucosal resection, endoscopic submucosal dissection, and peroral endoscopic myotomy. Esophageal motility disorders are common diseases in clinic, which seriously affect the quality of life. Although esophageal manometry is the golden diagnostic standard, endoscopy also plays an important role in diagnosis. There are many therapeutic methods in achalasia and gastroesophageal reflux diseases with good efficacy, while the therapy in other esophageal motility disorders remains in dispute. According to the domestic and foreign research progressions, we introduce the role of endoscopy in the diagnosis and management of esophageal motility disorders.

9.How to improve the level of endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of early gastrointestinal cancer: private opinions.
Chinese Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2012;15(7):649-653
At present, the level of diagnosis and treatment of early gastrointestinal cancer has a larger gap between China and developed countries. In recent years, the advent of new endoscopic imaging techniques has improved the detection rate of early gastrointestinal cancer. Along with this, endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) enables radical resection for early cancer. In this article, we discuss how to improve the level of endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of early gastrointestinal cancer.
