A new animal model of atrophy-hypertrophy complex and liver damage following Yttrium-90 lobar selective internal radiation therapy in rabbits. [PDF]
Lobar selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) is widely used to treat liver tumors inducing atrophy of the treated lobe and contralateral hypertrophy. The lack of animal model has precluded further investigations to improve this treatment.

Association of sleep and anaesthesia EEG biomarkers with preoperative MoCA score: A pilot study
Abstract Introduction Preoperative cognitive impairments increase the risk of postoperative complications. The electroencephalogram (EEG) could provide information on cognitive vulnerability. The feasibility and clinical relevance of sleep EEG (EEGsleep) compared to intraoperative EEG (EEGintraop) in cognitive risk stratification remains to be explored.

Objective. Dysregulation of cell cycle progression (CCP) is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Here, our study is aimed at developing a CCP‐derived gene signature for predicting high‐risk population of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods. Our study retrospectively analyzed the transcriptome profiling and clinical information of HCC patients from The ...
