Hyponatremia in Liver Cirrhosis

The Korean Journal of Gastroenterology, 2018
Hyponatremia is a commonly observed complication that is related to hypoalbuminemia and portal hypertension in patients with advanced liver cirrhosis. Hyponatremia in patients with liver cirrhosis is mostly dilutional hyponatremia and is defined when the serum sodium concentration is below 130 meq/L. The risk of complications increases significantly in

Cancer-Associated Thrombosis in Cirrhotic Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma. [PDF]

, 2018
It is common knowledge that cancer patients are more prone to develop venous thromboembolic complications (VTE). It is therefore not surprising that patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) present with a significant risk of VTE, with the portal vein

Cell Membrane Vesicle Camouflaged Artificial Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Artificial cells camouflaged with a cell membrane vesicle coating are able to assemble into synthetic aggregates that exhibit rudimentary communication capabilities. Additionally, when these artificial cells are equipped with antioxidant capabilities, they are able to protect the intracellular homeostasis in HepG2 cells present in semi‐synthetic ...

Polymer Nanogels with Albumin Reporting Interface Created Using RAFT Precipitation Polymerization for Disease Diagnosis and Food Testing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Herein, polymer nanogels with a reporting interface for albumin are synthesized through reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) precipitation polymerization of di(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate and N,N’‐methylenebis(acrylamide) using a poly(2‐methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine) macro‐RAFT agent, followed by dansyl ...

Enhancement Pattern Mapping for Detection of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Patients with Cirrhosis [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Background and Aims: Limited methods exist to accurately characterize risk of malignant progression of liver lesions in patients undergoing surveillance for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Enhancement pattern mapping (EPM) measures voxel-based root mean square deviation (RMSD) and improves the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) of liver lesions on standard ...

Maximum likelihood and pseudo score approaches for parametric time-to-event analysis with informative entry times [PDF]

Annals of Applied Statistics 2014, Vol. 8, No. 2, 726-746, 2014
We develop a maximum likelihood estimating approach for time-to-event Weibull regression models with outcome-dependent sampling, where sampling of subjects is dependent on the residual fraction of the time left to developing the event of interest. Additionally, we propose a two-stage approach which proceeds by iteratively estimating, through a pseudo ...
