Non-invasive Assessment of Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG) Based on MR Flow Imaging and Computational Fluid Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) is a severe complication of chronic liver disease associated with cirrhosis, which is diagnosed by the measurement of hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). However, HVPG measurement is invasive and therefore difficult to be widely applied in clinical routines.

Metastatic cholangiocarcinoma in a cow presenting as suspect bovine tuberculosis in Ireland

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 12, Issue 4, December 2024.
Abstract Cholangiocarcinoma is a malignant tumour of bile duct epithelial cells, an uncommon primary hepatic neoplasm in cattle. A 9‐year‐old Simmental cow presented with watery diarrhoea, crusty skin lesions, loss of appetite and hepatomegaly. Suspecting severe liver disease, the cow was euthanased due to poor prognosis.

Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling of Blood Clearance of Liver Fluorescent Markers for the Assessment of the Degree of Hepatic Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
During liver transplantation, ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is inevitable and decreases the overall success of the surgery. While guidelines exist, there is no reliable way to quantitatively assess the degree of IRI present in the liver. Our recent study has shown a correlation between the bile-to-plasma ratio of FDA-approved sodium fluorescein (SF)

Semi-Quantitative Analysis and Serological Evidence of Hepatitis A Virus IgG Antibody among children in Rumuewhor, Emuoha, Rivers State, Nigeria [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection has been greatly reduced in most developed countries through the use of vaccine and improved hygienic conditions. However, the magnitude of the problem is underestimated and there are no well-established Hepatitis A virus prevention and control strategies in Nigeria.

Surgical treatment strategies for hepatic alveolar echinococcosis

open access: yesFood and Waterborne Parasitology, 2019
Alveolar echinococcosis is a severe and rare helminthic disease with increasing incidence in endemic regions. Herein, available evidence on curative surgical and potential palliative approaches was reviewed. Such strategies have to be applied in the context of available resources in different health-care systems. Complete resection followed by adjuvant

Contradictory Role of Gadd45β in Liver Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 28, Issue 23, December 2024.
ABSTRACT There are three homologous proteins (α, β and γ) in the growth arrest and DNA damage 45 (Gadd45) family. These proteins act as cellular responders to physiological and environmental stimuli. Gadd45β plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of liver diseases. Liver injury and growth stimulation increase expression of Gadd45β, which promotes

Robust phase-retrieval-based X-ray tomography for morphological assessment of early hepatic echinococcosis infection in rats.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Propagation-based phase-contrast computed micro-tomography (PPCT) dominates the non-destructive, three-dimensional inner-structure measurement in synchrotron-based biomedical research due to its simple experimental setup. To quantitatively visualize tiny

Complete removal of a ruptured pulmonary hydatid cyst during conscious sedation bronchoscopy: A case report and literature review

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 12, Issue 9, September 2024.
We report a case where the complete membranes of a ruptured pulmonary hydatid cyst were removed during conscious sedation bronchoscopy. Abstract The complete removal of a pulmonary hydatid cyst by bronchoscopy occurs rarely in clinical practice. We describe a 22‐year‐old male originally from Lebanon, with suspected hydatid cyst rupture on computed ...
