The management of neuroendocrine tumours: A nutritional viewpoint [PDF]
Nutritional status in patients with neuroendocrine tumours (NETs), especially of gastroenteropancreatic origin, can be deeply affected by excessive production of gastrointestinal hormones, peptides, and amines, which can lead to malabsorption, diarrhoea,

Atrial TR as more favourable prognosis except in advanced patients. Abstract Background and Aims Although the classification of secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR) by atrial or ventricular aetiology (A‐STR or V‐STR) carries prognostic importance, the confounding effects of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class have not yet been elucidated.

Rare Case of Neuroendocrine Metastasis to the Left Ventricle
Carcinoid syndrome is a constellation of signs and symptoms caused by different hormones produced by carcinoid tumors. Very rarely, those tumors can metastasize to the heart and cause cardiac involvement of the tumor. This study presents a very rare case

Abstract There is an unmet need for new methods to predict disease course in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET). We investigated 92 putative cancer‐related plasma proteins including chromogranin A (CgA) and clinical parameters at the time of diagnosis to identify early factors associated with progressive (PD) or stable disease (SD).

Correlation of Matrix Metalloproteinases and Tissue Inhibitors of Matrix Metalloproteinase Expression in Ileal Carcinoids, Lymph Nodes and Liver Metastasis with Prognosis and Survival [PDF]
Purpose: Ileal carcinoids are gut epithelial tumors originating from serotonin-containing enterochromaffin (EC) cells. Therapeutic options for effectively inhibiting the growth and spread of metastatic carcinoids are still limited.
