Circulating tumor DNA in management of primary liver malignancy: A review of the literature and future directions

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
Abstract Primary liver malignancies are a serious and challenging global health concern. The most common primary tumors are hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma. These diseases portend poor prognosis when presenting with progressive, extensive disease.

Histological insight into the hepatic tissue of the Nile monitor (Varanus niloticus) [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
The liver of reptiles is considered an important study model for the interaction between environment and hepatic tissue. Little is known about the histology of the liver of reptiles. The aim of the current study was to elucidate the histological architecture of the liver of the Nile monitor (Varanus niloticus).

Treatment of Intermediate‐Risk Hepatoblastoma Using a Combined Cisplatin and Doxorubicin (PLADO) Regimen and Optimized Surgical Resection

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Complete resection of the primary tumor is critical for the survival of children with hepatoblastomas (HBs). This prospective clinical study aimed to clarify the outcome of a chemotherapy regimen comprising cisplatin and doxorubicin (PLADO) followed by definitive surgery conducted at the appropriate time in patients with ...

On turbulent friction in straight ducts with complex cross section: the wall law and the hydraulic diameter [PDF]

, 2018
We develop predictive formulas for friction resistance in ducts with complex cross-sectional shape based on the use of the log law and neglect of wall shear stress nonuniformities. The traditional hydraulic diameter naturally emerges from the analysis as the controlling length scale for common duct shapes as triangles and regular polygons. The analysis

Application of machine learning in constructing a diagnostic model for neonatal biliary atresia

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
This study included 85 neonates who visited the hospital due to pathological jaundice. Using the basic clinical characteristics and serological examination data of the neonatal period, we developed six machine‐learning (ML) models. Extreme gradient boosting has the maximum potential to diagnose biliary atresia in the neonatal period.

Isolated recurrence of distal adenocarcinoma of the extrahepatic bile duct on a draining sinus scar after curative resection: Case Report and review of the literature

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2009
Background Surgical resection remains the gold standard for the treatment of localized adenocarcinoma of the extrahepatic bile ducts. Yet, treatment of loco-regional recurrences is not well defined.

Human extrahepatic and intrahepatic cholangiocyte organoids show region-specific differentiation potential and model cystic fibrosis-related bile duct disease

Scientific Reports, 2020
The development, homeostasis, and repair of intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts are thought to involve distinct mechanisms including proliferation and maturation of cholangiocyte and progenitor cells.

The Prognostic Significance of Handgrip Strength in Cirrhosis: Simplicity Is the Ultimate Sophistication

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
The advantages to measure handgrip strength (HGS) are simple, convenient, noninvasive, cost‐effective, and easy to be widely carried out during daily clinical practice. Mounting evidence demonstrates that muscle strength measured by HGS is a feasible and reliable metric to evaluate nutritional status, as well as relevant cirrhosis‐related complications

Treatment and outcome of gall bladder leiomyoma in an asymptomatic dog

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract The purpose of this report was to describe the diagnostic protocol, treatment and outcome of an 11‐year‐old, entire male, mixed‐breed dog with a gall bladder neoplasia histologically consistent with a leiomyoma. On referral, the patient had no clinical signs related to the gall bladder mass.
