Emtree Terms Added and Changed (January 2019) Emtree Terms Changed in January 2019 1 Emtree Terms Added and Changed (January 2019) This is an overview of new terms added and changes made in the first Emtree release in 2019. Overall, Emtree has grown by 709 preferred terms (114 drug terms and 595 non-drug terms) compared with the previous version released in September 2018. In total Emtree now counts 82444 preferred terms. Because the terms added include replacements for existing preferred terms (which become synonyms of the new terms) as well as completely new concepts, the number of terms added exceeds the net growth in Emtree. Other changes could include the merging of two or more existing preferred terms into a single concept. The terms added and changed are summarized below and specified in detail on the following pages. Emtree Terms Added in January 2019 739 new terms (including 30 replacement terms and promoted synonyms) have been added to Emtree as preferred terms in version January 2019 (compared to September 2018): 128 drug terms (terms assigned to the Chemicals and Drugs facet). 611 non-drug terms (terms not assigned as Chemicals and Drugs). The new terms (including the replacement terms and the promoted synonyms) are listed as Terms Added on the following pages. Note that many of these terms will have been indexed prior to 2019 (typically as candidate terms), sometimes for several years, before they were added to Emtree. Emtree Terms Changed in January 2019 30 terms (15 drug terms and 15 non-drug terms) from Emtree September 2018 have been replaced by 30 different terms in January 2018 (15 drug terms and 15 non-drug terms). Of these, 25 terms (12 drug terms and 13 non-drug terms) are new (e.g. new generic names for drug chemical names) and have been assigned creation date 2019; the remaining 5 replacement terms (3 drug terms and 2 non-drug terms) were already present in Emtree. No drug terms were replaced by a non-drug term, 0 non-drug term were replaced by a drug term. No preferred terms were deleted. Changes are presented in alphabetical order of the new terms.

ABSTRACT Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is gold standard surgery for symptomatic gall stone disease which is the commonest disease needs surgical management. Symptomatology of the patients having upper GI pathologies can mimick the symptomatic gall stone disease and vice versa. Though biliary colic is specific for gallstones. Patients presenting with other gastrointestinal symptoms can also have gall stones. In this study UGI endoscopy was done for all patients with symptomatic and investigation proved gall stone disease to rule out other pathological causes of gastrointestinal tract and prevent post cholecystectomy syndrome. Methods: Patients with Ultrasonography suggestive of single or multiple gall stones were included. Upper GI Scopy was done prior to laparoscopic cholecystectomy as per inclusion and exclusion criteria. All patients above 18years, with ultrasonographically proven diagnosis of cholelithiasis Results: In present study, 153 patients were included. Pain in abdomen was present in 88.2% of patients. Nausea/vomiting was second most common symptom and seen in 60.78%. It is also seen that OGD findings were abnormal in 108 patients (i.e.70.58%) and OGD findings were normal in 45 patients.

  • Microlithiasis of the Gallbladder: Role of Endoscopic Ultrasonography in Patients with Idiopathic Acute Pancreatitis
    Artigo Original MICroLITHIASIS OF THE GALLBLADDER: roLE OF ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASONOGRAPHY IN PATIENTS WITH IDIOPATHIC ACUTE PANCREATITIS JOSÉ CELSO ARDENGH1*, CARLOS ALBERTO MALHEIroS2, FARES RAHAL3, VICTor PEREIRA3, ARNALDO JOSÉ GANC4 Trabalho realizado no Setor de Endoscopia e Ecoendoscopia do Hospital 9 de Julho, São Paulo, SP SUMMARY OBJECTIVES. Causes may be found in most cases of acute pancreatitis, however no etiology is found by clinical, biological and imaging investigations in 30% of these cases. Our objective was to evaluate results from endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) for diagnosis of gallbladder microlithiasis in patients with unexplained (idiopathic) acute pancreatitis. METHODS. Thirty-six consecutive non-alcoholic patients with diagnoses of acute pancreatitis were studied over a five-year period. None of them showed signs of gallstones on transabdominal ultrasound or tomography. We performed EUS within one week of diagnosing acute pancreatitis. Diagnosis of gall- bladder microlithiasis on EUS was based upon findings of hyperechoic signals of 0.5-3.0 mm, with or without acoustic shadowing. All patients (36 cases) underwent cholecystectomy, in accordance with indication from the attending physician or based upon EUS diagnosis. RESULTS. Twenty-seven patients (75%) had microlithiasis confirmed by histology and nine did not (25%). EUS findings were positive in twenty-five. Two patients had acute cholecystitis diagnosed at EUS that was confirmed by surgical and histological findings. In two patients, EUS showed choleste- rolosis and pathological analysis disclosed stones not detected by EUS. EUS diagnosed microlithiasis in four cases not confirmed by surgical treatment. In our study, sensitivity, specificity and positive and negative predictive values to identify gallbladder microlithiasis (with 95% confidence interval) were 92.6% (74.2-98.7%), 55.6% (22.7-84.7%), 86.2% (67.4-95.5%) and 71.4% (30.3-94.9%), *Correspondência: respectively.

  • Idiopathic Acute Pancreatitis: a Review on Etiology and Diagnostic Work-Up
    Clinical Journal of Gastroenterology (2019) 12:511–524 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12328-019-00987-7 CLINICAL REVIEW Idiopathic acute pancreatitis: a review on etiology and diagnostic work‑up Giovanna Del Vecchio Blanco1 · Cristina Gesuale1 · Marzia Varanese1 · Giovanni Monteleone1 · Omero Alessandro Paoluzi1 Received: 30 January 2019 / Accepted: 19 April 2019 / Published online: 30 April 2019 © Japanese Society of Gastroenterology 2019 Abstract Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common disease associated with a substantial medical and fnancial burden, and with an inci- dence across Europe ranging from 4.6 to 100 per 100,000 population. Although most cases of AP are caused by gallstones or alcohol abuse, several other causes may be responsible for acute infammation of the pancreatic gland. Correctly diagnosing AP etiology is a crucial step in the diagnostic and therapeutic work-up of patients to prescribe the most appropriate therapy and to prevent recurrent attacks leading to the development of chronic pancreatitis. Despite the improvement of diagnostic technologies, and the availability of endoscopic ultrasound and sophisticated radiological imaging techniques, the etiology of AP remains unclear in ~ 10–30% of patients and is defned as idiopathic AP (IAP). The present review aims to describe all the conditions underlying an initially diagnosed IAP and the investigations to consider during diagnostic work-up in patients with non-alcoholic non-biliary pancreatitis.

  • The Usefulness of Microscopic Bile Examination in the Evaluation of Patients with Upper Abdominal Pain
    © 2003 Indian Journal of Surgery www.indianjsurg.com Original Article The usefulness of microscopic bile examination in the evaluation of patients with upper abdominal pain K. Ramachandra Pai, Alfred J. Augustine, Rajeev Premnath P Department of General Surgery, Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore, India. ABSTRACT Background: Biliary microlithiasis is a collection of cholesterol and calcium bilirubinate crystals and is known to cause biliary colic, acute pancreatitis and acute cholecystitis. In some of these patients biliary microlithiasis has been found. Objectives: To estimate the incidence of biliary microlithiasis in patients with upper abdominal pain and negative imaging tests. Methods: A prospective analysis of bile was studied in 50 patients. A positive result was the identification of cholesterol crystals or calcium bilirubinate clumps. Results: In the 50 patients studied, 7 patients were found to have microlithiasis in bile. Conclusion: Microscopic examination of bile for biliary microlithiasis is a simple and safe technique and must be done in patients with upper abdominal pain who have normal blood tests, negative imaging tests and normal upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Biliary microlithiasis is the probable cause of upper abdominal pain in some of these patients. KEY WORDS Biliary microlithiasis, Cholesterol crystals, Calcium bilirubinate clumps, Bile microscopy.

However, com- bined gallbladder and cystic duct agenesis (CDA) with polycystic liver disease associated with recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP) has not been reported earlier. Herein we report a case of a 36-year-old female patient who was admitted to the hos- pital and successfully treated for acute pancreatitis most probably caused in the background of gallbladder and CDA with polycystic liver disease. In case of non-visualization of gallbladder with the presence of biliary symptoms after repeated ultrasonographic examinations, advanced techniques like MRCP, computed tomography, EUS and even endoscopic retro- grade cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) to visualize biliary anatomy must be conducted before any surgical intervention. We present a case of gallbladder and CDA causing RAP by the formation of microlithiasis treated successfully with ERCP and without any unnecessary surgery, its management and review of the literature is assessed.

  • The Role of Endoscopic Ultrasonography in Detection of Gall Bladder Microlithiasis, Sludge and Stone in Patients with Biliary Pain
    Gastroenterology and Hepatology From Bed to Bench. 2010;3(3):131-137 ORIGINAL ARTICLE ©2010 RIGLD, Research Institute for Gastroenterology and Liver Diseases The role of endoscopic ultrasonography in detection of gall bladder microlithiasis, sludge and stone in patients with biliary pain Amir Houshang Mohammad Alizadeh1, Farahnaz Fallahian2, Mahsa Khodadoostan1, Hamid Mohaghegh Shalmani1, Mohammad Reza Zali1 1 Research Institute for Gastroenterology and Liver Diseases, Shahid Beheshti University, M.C., Tehran, Iran 2 Baqiyatallah Research Center for Gastroenterology and Liver Diseases, Tehran, Iran ABSTRACT Aim: To evaluate the role of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) in the diagnosis of gallbladder microlithiasis, sludge, and stone in patients with clinical suspicion of cholecystitis, but with normal transabdominal ultrasonography (TUS) during six months follow-up after laparosopic cholecystectomy (LCT). Background: Endosonography has been shown to be highly sensitive in the detection of choledocholithiasis, especially in patients with small stones and nondilated bile ducts, and gallbladder microlithiasis. Patients and methods: A prospective study was performed on patients with biliary pain and normal transabdominal ultrasonography, for presence of microlithiasis, sludge, and stone in gallbladder at Arad hospital, Tehran, Iran from January 2004 to January 2007. EUS examination was performed with a mechanical radial scanning UM-20 echo- endoscope (Olympus Optical, Tokyo, Japan). Patients in whom EUS demonstrated gallbladder sludge, microlithisis, and stone were offered laparoscopic cholecystectomy within one week. Results: A total of 245 patients (176 female and 69 male) were included in this study from January 2005 to January 2007. 88 out of 245 (36%) patients had gallbladder abnormalities which were diagnosed by EUS including: 43 gallbladder microlithiasis (48.3%), 23 gallbladder sludge (26%), 22 gallbladder stone (24.7%).

Abstract Low phospholipid-associated cholelithiasis (LPAC) is characterized by the association of ABCB4 mutations and low biliary phospholipid concentration with symptomatic and recurring cholelithiasis. This syndrome is infrequent and corresponds to a peculiar small subgroup of patients with symptomatic gallstone disease. The patients with the LPAC syndrome present typically with the following main features: age less than 40 years at onset of symptoms, recurrence of biliary symptoms after cholecystectomy, intrahepatic hyperechoic foci or sludge or microlithiasis along the biliary tree. Defect in ABCB4 function causes the production of bile with low phospholipid content, increased lithogenicity and high detergent properties leading to bile duct luminal membrane injuries and resulting in cholestasis with increased serum gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) activity.
