Background: Daily clinical observations and a recent study (D Vermeylen et al., 2004) suggest that reflux laryngitis (RL) is involved in apneas/ bradycardias of the newborn. The aim of this study is to develop and tovalidate a unique RL model in newborn lambs to test the assumption that a RL provokesan increase in apneas/ bradycardias/ desaturations observed within thelaryngeal chemoreflexes induced by the contact of a liquid with the larynx. Methods: A surgical instrumentation was performed on the first day of life, which included the insertion of a transcutaneous esophageal catheter in order to allow instillation of a gastric juice surrogate (HCl +pepsin at pH 2) directly on the larynx. The 2 ml-instillations were made 3 times per day for 6 consecutive days. At day 9-10 laryngeal chemoreflexes were induced during sleep. The larynx was removed at the time of necropsy to grade inflammation by a histological study. Results: Lambs in which a RL was induced (n = 4) presented characteristic signs of RL: cough, weak bleat, reduction in weight gain. Preliminary histological analyses showed a characteristic laryngeal inflammation. Preliminary results showing that apneas and oxygen desaturations seem more prominent in RL lambs than controls provided further validation ofour RL model. Conclusion: The ovine model developed in this study presents theclinical and histological characteristics of RL observed in newborns. Preliminary results suggesting that a RL increases apneas/bradycardias/desaturations when a liquid is in contact with laryngealmucosa in the newborn must be confirmed.

Abstract Background Ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is the second subtype of ovarian epithelial carcinoma reported to be closely related to Lynch syndrome (LS). ARID1A mutation is an important pathogenetic mechanism in OCCC that leads to loss of ARID1A expression in approximately half of OCCCs. However, the correlation of MMR status and ARID1A deficiency is unclear. The current study aimed to identify the clinical and histopathological characteristics of OCCC associated with dMMR and to further explore the association between dMMR and ARID1A deficiency. Methods A cohort of 176 primary OCCC patients was enrolled and review included histological characteristics (nuclear atypia, necrosis, mitosis, stromal hyalinization, and background precursors) and host inflammatory response (tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, peritumoral lymphocytes, intratumoral stromal inflammation and plasma cell infiltration). Immunohistochemical staining of MLH1, PMS2, MSH2, MSH6 and ARID1A was performed using tissue microarrays. Results dMMR was detected in 10/176 tumors (6 %), followed by MSH2/MSH6 (6/176), MLH1/PMS2 (3/176), and MSH6 (1/176). The average age of patients with dMMR was younger than that of patients with intact MMR (46 y vs. 53 y). Tumors with diffuse intratumoral stromal inflammation remained significantly associated after multivariate analysis. ARID1A expression was absent in 8 patients with dMMR (8/10), which is a significantly higher frequency than that observed in patients with intact MMR (80 % vs. 43.2 %). Conclusions Our study indicates that diffuse intratumoral stromal inflammation of OCCCs is associated with dMMR, with loss of MSH2/MSH6 expression being most frequent. dMMR is strongly associated with the loss of ARID1A expression in OCCC.

<b><i>Background:</i></b> Gastric adenocarcinoma of foveolar type (GA-FV) is a raspberry-shaped gastric cancer (RSGC) and garners much attention as <i>H. pylori</i> (<i>Hp</i>)-uninfected gastric cancer. However, the classification and clinicopathological and endoscopic features of RSGCs in <i>Hp</i>-uninfected patients are poorly defined. We designed a new histopathological classification of RSGC and compared them via endoscopic and clinicopathological characteristics. <b><i>Summary:</i></b> From 996 patients with early gastric cancers resected by endoscopy in our hospital, we studied 24 RSGC lesions from 21 (2.4%) <i>Hp</i>-uninfected patients. RSGCs were classified into 3 histological types as follows: GA-FV (<i>n</i> = 19), gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type (GA-FG, <i>n</i> = 2), and gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland mucosa type (GA-FGM, <i>n</i> = 3). Most of the lesions were found at the greater curvature of the upper or middle third of the stomach. GA-FV lesions were homogeneously reddish and frequently accompanied with a whitish area around the tumor and an irregular microvascular (MV) pattern; these features were confirmed histopathologically by the presence of homogeneous neoplastic foveolar epithelium with foveolar hyperplasia around the tumors. GA-FG lesions might be heterogeneously reddish with a submucosal tumor shape and regular MV pattern; these were confirmed by the presence of covered or mixed nonneoplastic epithelium on deeper regions of tumors. GA-FGM lesions might be homogeneously reddish and occasionally had a submucosal tumor shape and irregular MV pattern; these were confirmed by the presence of homogeneous neoplastic foveolar epithelium on deeper regions of the tumors. <b><i>Key Messages:</i></b> RSGCs in <i>Hp</i>-uninfected patients are classified into 3 histopathological types. For accurate diagnosis of RSGCs, it may be necessary to fully understand endoscopic features of these lesions based on these histological characteristics and to take a precise biopsy.
