Amitay E, Niedermaier T, Gies A, Hoffmeister M, Brenner H
J Clin Med . 2021 Jul; 10(12). PMID: 34205800
The success of a colonoscopy in detecting and removing pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions depends heavily on the quality of bowel preparation. Despite efforts, 20-44% of colonoscopy participants have an inadequate...

Siziba L, Brenner H, Amitay E, Koenig W, Rothenbacher D, Genuneit J
Pediatr Allergy Immunol . 2021 Jun; 32(8):1663-1672. PMID: 34173262
Background: The hormone leptin has been suggested to play a role in the respiratory and immune systems. Evidence on sex-specific concentrations of leptin in human milk and sex-specific associations with...

Gruner L, Amitay E, Heisser T, Guo F, Niedermaier T, Gies A, et al.
Cancers (Basel) . 2021 Apr; 13(7). PMID: 33806234
Personal invitations for fecal occult blood tests (nowadays mostly fecal immunochemical tests) are increasingly used to raise their usage for colorectal cancer screening. However, there is a large heterogeneity in...

Amitay E, Carr P, Gies A, Laetsch D, Brenner H
Clin Transl Gastroenterol . 2021 Jan; 11(12):e00268. PMID: 33512803
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Post-CRC resection complications and lower quality of life (QoL) are associated with a lower long-term survival. Perioperative administration of...

Hoffmeister M, Blaker H, Jansen L, Alwers E, Amitay E, Carr P, et al.
Am J Gastroenterol . 2020 Aug; 115(12):2007-2016. PMID: 32858564
Introduction: In previous studies, the protective effect of colonoscopy was generally stronger for distal colorectal cancer than for proximal colorectal cancer (CRC). This study aimed to investigate whether reduction of...

Hidaka A, Harrison T, Cao Y, Sakoda L, Barfield R, Giannakis M, et al.
Cancer Res . 2020 Aug; 80(20):4578-4590. PMID: 32816852
Protective associations of fruits, vegetables, and fiber intake with colorectal cancer risk have been shown in many, but not all epidemiologic studies. One possible reason for study heterogeneity is that...

Zaidi S, Harrison T, Phipps A, Steinfelder R, Trinh Q, Qu C, et al.
Nat Commun . 2020 Jul; 11(1):3644. PMID: 32686686
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a biologically heterogeneous disease. To characterize its mutational profile, we conduct targeted sequencing of 205 genes for 2,105 CRC cases with survival data. Our data shows...

Niedermaier T, Amitay E, Gies A, Weigl K, Hoffmeister M, Brenner H
Clin Transl Gastroenterol . 2020 May; 11(4):e00169. PMID: 32352678
Introduction: Colonoscopy is an imperfect gold standard for detecting colorectal neoplasms because some proportion of adenomas may be missed, mainly small lesions. This proportion is expected to be higher in...

Br J Cancer . 2020 Apr; 122(11):1604-1610. PMID: 32225169
Background: Smoking and alcohol increase risk for colorectal malignancies. However, colorectal cancer (CRC) is a heterogenic disease and associations with the molecular pathological pathways are unclear. Methods: This population-based case-control...
