Purpose Hangeshashinto (TJ-14, a Kampo medicine), which reduces the level of prostaglandin E2 and affects the cyclooxygenase activity, alleviates chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis (COM). We conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized comparative trial to investigate whether TJ-14 prevents and controls COM in patients with colorectal cancer. Methods Ninety-three...
Background The safety and feasibility of administering S-1 adjuvant chemotherapy for gastric cancer has not been fully evaluated in elderly patients. Methods This retrospective study selected patients who underwent curative D2 surgery for gastric cancer, were diagnosed with stage II or III disease, and received adjuvant S-1 at our institution. Patients were categorized into two...
Background In patients with stage II/III gastric cancer, tumors often recur even after curative D2 gastrectomy followed by adjuvant S-1 chemotherapy. The objective of this retrospective study was to clarify the prognostic factors in these patients that might be useful for future patients. Methods Overall survival (OS) was examined in 82 gastric cancer patients who underwent...
BackgroundThe factors that affect the 6-month continuation of adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 have not been fully evaluated. The objective of this retrospective study was to clarify the risk factors for 6-month continuation of S-1 adjuvant chemotherapy.MethodsThe study selected patients who underwent curative D2 surgery for gastric cancer, were diagnosed with stage 2 or 3 disease...
Background Some patients experience a recurrence of cancer even after curative D2 gastrectomy followed by adjuvant S-1 chemotherapy. The objective of this retrospective study was to clarify the survival and prognosticators in these patients. Methods The study selected patients who underwent curative D2 surgery, were diagnosed with stage II, IIIA, or IIIB cancer, received adjuvant...
BackgroundA significant body weight loss (BWL) is observed during 1 month after gastrectomy for gastric cancer. However, it remains unclear which body component mainly accounts for the weight loss.MethodsTwo-hundred forty-four patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer between May 2010 and October 2013 were examined. Body weight and composition were evaluated by a...
Background Hangeshashinto (TJ-14, a Kampo medicine), which reduces the level of prostaglandin E2 and affects the cyclooxygenase activity, alleviates chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis (COM). We conducted a randomized comparative trial to investigate whether TJ-14 prevents and controls COM in patients with gastric cancer. Methods We randomly assigned patients with gastric cancer...
Background. Chronic haemodialysis patients are at an increased risk of peripheral artery disease (PAD). Although percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) has become a widely used therapeutic intervention for PAD, its outcome in haemodialysis patients remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to clarify the long-term outcome of PTA as a primary treatment for PAD in...
Background Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs have been reported to be feasible and useful for maintaining physiological function and facilitating recovery after colorectal surgery. The feasibility of such programs in gastric surgery remains unclear. This study assessed whether an ERAS program is feasible in patients who undergo gastric surgery. Methods The subjects...

Background The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) initiated by surgeons with much experience of open gastrectomy and laparoscopic surgery. Methods Three surgeons who each had experience with more than 300 cases of open gastrectomy, more than 100 cases of laparoscopic cholecystectomy, more than...
Background Radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) is a relatively new modification of the standard distal pancreatosplenectomy. In this method, dissection proceeds from right-to-left to achieve negative posterior resection margins. However, short-term and long-term outcomes of RAMPS for pancreatic cancer have not yet been clarified. The aim of this study is to...
