Preoperative FIB‐4 Index as a Potential Factor Associated With Severe Postoperative Complications and Endogenous Organ Failure After Hepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that a preoperative FIB‐4 index ≥ 5.0 independently predicts severe complications and endogenous organ failure (EOF) following hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. By capturing structural liver fragility and systemic vulnerability, the FIB‐4 index enhances surgical risk stratification beyond traditional functional markers ...

A Multivalent mRNA Therapeutic Vaccine Exhibits Breakthroughs in Immune Tolerance and Virological Suppression of HBV by Stably Presenting the Pre-S Antigen on the Cell Membrane

Pharmaceutics
Background/Objectives: In chronic hepatitis B infection (CHB), the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) continuously exhausts the hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb), which leads to the formation of immune tolerance.

A new group of hepadnaviruses naturally infecting Orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus) [PDF]

, 1999
A high prevalence (42.6%) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection was suspected in 195 formerly captive orangutans due to a large number of serum samples which cross-reacted with human HBV antigens.

Mac‐2 Binding Protein Glycosylation Isomer (M2BPGi)–Based Risk Stratification Refined by Tumor Metabolic Activity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
M2BPGi reflects background liver fibrosis and hepatic functional impairment. PET SUVmax reflects tumor metabolic aggressiveness. Their combination identifies a dual‐high subgroup with the poorest recurrence‐free and overall survival. ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the prognostic significance of preoperative Mac‐2 binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi)

Occult hepatitis B virus infection and its demographic and clinical determinants among blood donors in Saudi Arabia: A retrospective cross-sectional study

Journal of International Medical Research
Objective Occult hepatitis B virus infection, characterized by the presence of hepatitis B virus DNA in the absence of detectable hepatitis B surface antigen, poses a significant risk to blood donation safety. This study aimed to determine the prevalence
