Model for End‐Stage Liver Disease/Pediatric End‐Stage Liver Disease exception policy and outcomes in pediatric patients with hepatopulmonary syndrome requiring liver transplantation

Liver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is associated with increased waitlist mortality in liver transplantation (LT) candidates. Children with HPS are granted Model for End‐Stage Liver Disease (MELD)/Pediatric End‐Stage Liver Disease (PELD) exception points for waitlist prioritization in the United States based on criterion developed for adults.

PLIN2 Promotes Lipid Accumulation in Ascites‐Associated Macrophages and Ovarian Cancer Progression by HIF1α/SPP1 Signaling

Advanced Science
A major characteristic of ovarian cancer (OC) is its unique route of metastasis via ascites. The immune microenvironment in ascites remains understudied, leaving the mechanism of ascites‐mediated abdominal metastasis obscure.

Evaluation of liver stiffness measurement–based scores in liver transplantation recipients

Liver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Combining bioclinical parameters with liver stiffness measurement (LSM) has improved the diagnostic performance of vibration‐controlled transient elastography (VCTE) for detection of advanced fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease. However, this approach has not yet been tested in liver transplantation (LT) recipients.

Detailed analysis of the histology-specific impact of ascites volume on the outcome of epithelial ovarian cancer: a multi-institutional retrospective cohort study

BMC Cancer
Background The accumulation of ascites is a major symptom of ovarian cancer. The volume of ascites is a pathophysiological indicator of the peritoneal environment, such as inflammation and fibrosis; however, the relationship between the volume of ascites

Detecting TP53 mutations in paired liquid and tissue biopsies from patients with high‐grade serous ovarian carcinoma

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? High‐grade serous ovarian carcinoma is often diagnosed at advanced stages due to non‐specific symptoms and the lack of reliable screening methods. This proof‐of‐concept study introduces a novel TP53 mutation panel using unique molecular identifier‐based next‐generation sequencing for sensitive detection of high‐grade serous ovarian ...

Efficacy and safety of fruquintinib combined with albumin‐bound paclitaxel as second‐line therapy for advanced gastric cancer following failure of PD‐1 inhibitor‐containing treatment (TACTIC GC‐01): A phase II single‐arm study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Anti‐angiogenic drugs have shown promising efficacy as a second‐line treatment for advanced gastric cancer. However, it remains unclear how alterations in the tumor microenvironment following first‐line immunotherapy may impact tumor angiogenesis and influence subsequent therapeutic outcomes. This single‐arm study prospectively explored the
