Oesophageal squamous cell carcinogenesis : a study of cell cycle regulatory proteins by immunohistochemistry
… Pathology. In addition, 16 cases of reflux oesophagitis were included for comparison. Initial immunohistochemical staining for HPV (Dako- clone KlH8) was undertaken but the negative results necessitated a shift in the focus of this study to that of cell cycle regulatory proteins. The tissues …

Investigating Prostaglandin E2 activation of the p38 pathway of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma
… of maize via reflux disease and chronic oesophagitis. In that context, it was postulated that prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a hormone derived from a main component of maize, continuously triggers activation of proliferation and inflammation pathways. This work aimed at assessing the role of …

Aspects of paediatric gastro oesophageal scintigraphy
… GOR in paediatric patients, with and without oesophagitis, gives unequivocal results in favour of scintigraphy. Two independent clear correlations between oesophageal transit time and the severity of GOR and age are demonstrated by variance and correlation analysis. The mean duration of GOR, …
