Zeroing Pressures in Urodynamics: Revisiting Current Practice and Pressure Interpretation
ABSTRACT Introduction Zeroing of pressure transducers is a fundamental step in urodynamic testing, as it affects pressure tracings and numerical values. Atmospheric zeroing before catheter insertion is the recommended approach, but zeroing with catheters in situ is also used.

ALPPS: From human to mice highlighting accelerated and novel mechanisms of liver regeneration [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: To develop a reproducible animal model mimicking a novel 2-staged hepatectomy (ALPPS: Associating Liver Partition and Portal Vein Ligation for Staged Hepatectomy) and explore the underlying mechanisms.

ABSTRACT The advent of proteomics assays that provide accurate levels of thousands of proteins from relatively small sample volumes opens possibilities for biomarker research in biobanks with valuable samples. In this study, we leverage the applicability of the Olink proximity extension assay to profile serum samples of the Janus Serum Bank, which have

Open Questions in Surgery for Hepatoblastoma: A Joined SIOPEL‐IPSO Survey
ABSTRACT Introduction Surgery is pivotal in the management of hepatoblastoma (HB) although approaches and techniques may vary. The Liver Group of the International Society of Pediatric Oncology (SIOPEL) and the International Pediatric Surgical Oncology (IPSO) group collaborated to develop an online survey to investigate specific technical aspects and ...

Defining benchmark outcomes for ALPPS
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to use the concept of benchmarking to establish robust and standardized outcome references after the procedure ALPPS (Associating Liver Partition and Portal Vein Ligation for Staged hepatectomy). BACKGROUND AND AIMS:

Background: A minimum future liver remnant (FLR) of 30% is required to avoid post hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF). Portal vein occlusion (PVO) is the main strategy to induce hypertrophy of the FLR, but some patients will not reach sufficient FLR ...

Background: Pushing the surgical limits for initially unresectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) are two approaches for sequential liver resection: two-stage hepatectomy (TSH) and associating liver partitioning and portal vein ligation for staged ...

• ADAMTS4 is induced primarily in cardiac fibroblasts during sepsis. • ADAMTS4 cleaves TSP1 at the 236–246 aa functional region. • TSP1 cleavage activates TGF‐β/Smad and NF‐κB signalling in fibroblasts. • Targeting ADAMTS4 reduces fibroblast activation and cardiac fibrosis.

ALPPS readdresses the management of advanced liver tumors
Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) has been developed to induce rapid liver hypertrophy of the future liver remnant (FLR) prior to hepatectomy in primarily non-resectable or marginally resectable liver ...
