Prospective comparison of transient elastography and liver biopsy for the assessment of fibrosis in chronic hepatitis C infection

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2015
HCV is a worldwide problem and the need to assess the degree of fibrosis is the corner stone in its treatment. Liver biopsy has been used for years to assess the degree of fibrosis and activity but recently many non-invasive methods have emerged to ...

Carcinomatous cirrhosis as radiographically occult liver metastases of breast cancer: A systematic literature review

open access: yesCancer Treatment and Research Communications, 2021
In the present study, we aimed to clarify features of carcinomatous cirrhosis from breast cancer presenting as refractory transudate ascites and acute liver failure. In our systematic literature review, we identified 26 studies and 31 cases including our

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Validity of biopsy-based drug effects in a diet-induced obese mouse model of biopsy-confirmed NASH

open access: yesBMC Gastroenterology, 2019
Background Compounds in clinical development for nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) improve liver histopathology in diet-induced obese mouse models of biopsy-confirmed NASH. Since the biopsy section used for histopathological evaluation represents only

Relationship Between Serum Iron Profile and Liver Density in Non-Enhanced CT-Scan

open access: yesActa Medica Iranica, 2020
It is known that liver biopsy is the gold standard of diagnosing liver iron deposition. By considering liver biopsy complication and cost, introducing a method to restrict unnecessary biopsy or even an alternative for liver biopsy can be useful.

Advances in Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS)-Guided Liver Biopsy

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Recent years have seen the emergence of endoscopic-ultrasound-guided liver biopsy (EUS-LB) as an effective alternative to traditional (percutaneous or transjugular) liver biopsy techniques.

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.

Patient Determinants for Histologic Diagnosis of NAFLD in the Real World: A TARGET‐NASH Study

open access: yesHepatology Communications, 2021
Much of the current data on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are derived from biopsy‐based studies that may introduce ascertainment and selection bias. Selection of patients for liver biopsy has implications for clinical practice and the reported
