Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

Serum Midkine as a Biomarker for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treatment Response and Prognostication

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Up‐to‐date, tumor markers are considered more helpful in the evaluation of treatment response and prognostication rather than diagnosis. Identifying a valid biomarker to help clinical management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still a challenge, especially the alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP) negative HCC. This study evaluated the efficacy of serum Midkine

Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography for the Assessment of Congestive Liver Disease in Patients With Structural Heart Disease

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Shear wave elastography demonstrated moderate diagnostic accuracy for detecting congestive liver disease in patients with structural heart disease. Increased liver stiffness was associated with echocardiographic markers of venous congestion, supporting the concept that elastography may serve as a noninvasive marker of cardiohepatic interaction ...

Independent Prognostic Value of Natural Tooth Count Versus Posterior Teeth Occlusion in Resected Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesJournal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Purpose Prognostic significance of preoperative patient‐related factors, including oral health status, in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unclear. We evaluated the association between preoperative factors—particularly oral health parameters—and long‐term survival after curative PDAC resection.

Guidance for the assessment of the dietary intake and gastrointestinal or nutrition impact symptoms etiologic criterion of Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition: A modified‐Delphi study

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract The GLIM malnutrition diagnostic framework includes the etiologic criterion for reduced dietary intake or assimilation (i.e., digestion or absorption). This criterion required further specification to support consistent use in clinical practice.

Association between blenderized tube feeds and differential oropharynx, stomach, and stool microbiome signatures relative to conventional formula feeds in children fed via enteral tube: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Blenderized gastrostomy tube feeds are associated with reduced gastrointestinal symptoms. We hypothesize that patients receiving blenderized tube feeds, compared with standard formula, will have less gastric‐oropharyngeal microbial overlap, a possible biomarker of less gastroesophageal refluxate, and differences in beta diversity in

Success of transition to adult care in patients with pediatric‐onset chronic liver disease

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Previous studies on chronic pediatric‐onset conditions have highlighted the risks of loss to follow‐up, disease progression, or therapeutic nonadherence during transition. However, very few studies have focused on liver diseases.
