Metastatic endodermal sinus tumor: CT appearances

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2002
A one-week-old boy had undergone resection of a sacrococcygeal benign cystic teratoma. At the age of 12 months, he had a serum alpha-fetoprotein level of 139,000 IU/ml and a recurrent pelvic mass which was removed, and the microscopic examination ...

Lack of reduction in serum alpha-fetoprotein during treatment with direct antiviral agents predicts hepatocellular carcinoma development in a large cohort of patients with hepatitis C virus-related cirrhosis

open access: yes, 2018
Risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in hepatitis C virus cirrhotic patients treated with direct-acting antiviral agents (DAA) is still debating. We investigated it in a large cohort. The cohort comprised 1045 cirrhotic patients who completed treatment

Interactive Roles of Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Nutritional Status in the Prognosis of Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma After Surgical Resection

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The prognostic effect of concurrent metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) on outcomes for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients remains unclear. The Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) reflects nutritional and inflammatory status and is a well‐known prognostic factor.

Machine Learning Model for Predicting Hepatocellular Carcinoma Development in Patients With Hepatitis B Virus‐Related Cirrhosis Receiving Antiviral Therapy

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Few prediction models have been specifically designed to evaluate the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with chronic hepatitis B and cirrhosis. This study aimed to develop a machine learning‐based prediction model to assess the risk of developing HCC in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)‐related cirrhosis undergoing nucleos(

Estimación del estadio y la actividad de la hepatitis viral crónica mediante la determinación de alfafetoproteína sérica Estimate of the stage and the activity of chronic viral hepatitis by the determination of serum alpha-phetoprotein

open access: yesRevista Cubana de Investigaciones Biomédicas, 2005
Se estudiaron 59 pacientes con hepatitis viral crónica B o C para determinar si existe relación entre los niveles séricos de alfafetoproteína y la actividad o estadio de la enfermedad hepática, o ambos. Se midió alfafetoproteína en suero coincidiendo con

Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out

Recompensation of Cirrhosis: A New Treatment‐Related Disease State

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This perspective article conceptualizes recompensation of cirrhosis as a distinct treatment‐related disease state rather than mere transient clinical improvement after etiology‐directed therapy, and further proposes a four‐state classification including compensated cirrhosis, stable recompensation, unstable recompensation, and persistent decompensation

Metal-Free All-Carbon Nanohybrid for Ultrasensitive Photoelectrochemical Immunosensing of alpha-Fetoprotein

open access: yes, 2018
C60 can accept up to six electrons reversibly and show exceptional light absorption over the entire UV–vis spectrum, making it a potential photoactive probe for photoelectrochemical (PEC) bioassay.

Regulating Lipid Metabolism in Cancer: The Therapeutic Potential of Traditional Chinese Medicine

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
By regulating the reprogramming of lipid metabolism in tumor cells, TCM provides a novel strategy for antitumor therapy with reduced toxicity and enhanced efficacy. ABSTRACT Lipid metabolic reprogramming is a key feature of tumor cells to adapt to the microenvironment and plays an important role in tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis.
