Obstructing mucocele of the cystic duct after transplantation of the liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
A tension mucocele was created in three hepatic homografts by ligating a low-lying cystic duct during transplant cholecystectomy and by incorporating its outflow end into the anastomosis of the common hepatic duct to the recipient common duct or Roux ...

Cuproplasia and cuproptosis, two sides of the coin

open access: yesCancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Copper is an essential micronutrient in the human body, mainly acting as a crucial cofactor required for a wide range of physiological processes across nearly all cell types. Recent advances revealed that tumor cells seize copper to fulfill their rapid proliferation, metastasis, immune evasion, and so on by reprogramming the copper regulatory ...

Obliterative portal venopathy: A neglected and probably misdiagnosed disease with peculiar etiology in South America

open access: yesJGH Open, Volume 6, Issue 12, Page 904-909, December 2022., 2022
Classically described in the group of non‐cirrhotic portal hypertension, obliterative portal venopathy (OPV) causes are still unknown. Our aim is to describe the characteristics of 43 OPV patients and potential risk factors. Clinically significant portal hypertension was found in 28% of cases. The most frequent indication for liver biopsy was elevation

Copper in cancer: friend or foe? Metabolism, dysregulation, and therapeutic opportunities

open access: yesCancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Copper, one of the essential nutrients for the human body, acts as an electron relay in multiple pathways due to its redox properties. Both deficiencies and excesses of copper lead to cellular fragility. Therefore, it can manifest pro‐ and anti‐cancer properties in tumors. Therefore, it is crucial to clarify the copper activity within the cell.

Common bile duct stone‐related parameters and their potential prognostic values for stone extraction requiring endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation

open access: yesJGH Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 16-23, January 2023., 2023
Endoscopic CBD stone removal is more difficult with stones larger than 2 mm than with distal CBD diameter or round or square‐shaped stones. Therefore, endoscopic large papillary balloon dilatation (ELPBD) is probably more required for stones larger than 2 mm than for distal CBD; likewise, round or square‐shaped stones are likely more required for ELPBD

Global trends and epidemiological shifts in gastrointestinal cancers: insights from the past four decades

open access: yesCancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The epidemiological profiles of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers vary across countries and over time, largely reflecting variations in risk factors and screening practices. We aimed to provide an overview of the current global burden of the five major types of GI cancers and conduct an updated evaluation of the long‐term trends of GI ...

Combating cancer immunotherapy resistance: a nano‐medicine perspective

open access: yesCancer Communications, EarlyView.
Abstract Cancer immunotherapy offers renewed hope for treating this disease. However, cancer cells possess inherent mechanisms that enable them to circumvent each stage of the immune cycle, thereby evading anti‐cancer immunity and leading to resistance.

DendroX: multi-level multi-cluster selection in dendrograms

open access: yesBMC Genomics
Background Cluster heatmaps are widely used in biology and other fields to uncover clustering patterns in data matrices. Most cluster heatmap packages provide utility functions to divide the dendrograms at a certain level to obtain clusters, but it is ...
