Nunes, Francisco José Viegas Cortez; Aguieiras, Catarina; Calhindro, Mauro; Louro, Ricardo; Peixe, Bruno; Queirós, Patrícia; Castelo-Branco, PedroBackground/Objectives: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a common gastric pathogen linked to gastritis, gastroduodenal ulcers, and gastric cancer. Rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses challenges for effective treatment and has prompted the WHO to classify H. pylori as a high-priority pathogen. This study aimed to detect the prevalence of AMR genes in H. pylori-positive gastric samples from patients in A...

Curative criteria for endoscopic treatment of gastric cancer
Neves, João A. Cunha; Delgado-Guillena, Pedro G.; Queirós, Patrícia; Libânio, Diogo; Rodríguez de Santiago, EnriqueEndoscopic treatment, particularly endoscopic submucosal dissection, has become the primary treatment for early gastric cancer. A comprehensive optical assessment, including white light endoscopy, image-enhanced endoscopy, and magnification, are the cornerstones for clinical staging and determining the resectability of lesions. This paper discusses factors that influence the indication for endoscopic resection ...

Cunha Neves, João A.; Roseira, Joana; Queirós, Patrícia; Tavares de Sousa, HelenaDear Editor, We read with great interest the paper by Laranjo et al. [1] entitled “The Effect of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on Rectal Ulcers after Argon Plasma Coagulation.” The authors reported the case of a patient with chronic radiation proctitis, who developed rectal ulcers after endoscopic treatment with argon plasma coagulation (APC) and was successfully treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO). Althou...
