Simultaneous Pancreas-Kidney and Pancreas Transplantation [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2001
The discovery of insulin in 1922 changed the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) forever. Insulin was the first effective therapy for type 1 DM; however, its success engendered a terrible paradox for patients with this disease.

Expression and DNA methylation of 20S proteasome subunits as prognostic and resistance markers in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Comprehensive analysis of genomic mutations, gene expression, DNA methylation, and pathway analysis of TCGA data was carried out to define cancer types in which proteasome subunits expression is associated with worse survival. Albeit the effect of specific proteasome subunits on cellular function, the main role of the proteasome is better evaluated ...

Predictors of distant metastasis on exploration in patients with potentially resectable pancreatic cancer

BMC Gastroenterology, 2018
Background Patients with potentially resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are frequently found to be unresectable on exploration due to small distant metastasis.

Safe perioperative management of major hepatectomy in a patient with portal hypertension after elimination of hepatitis C: a case report

Surgical Case Reports, 2022
Background The administration of direct-acting antiviral agents in patients with liver cirrhosis and hepatitis C has been shown to improve liver function and long-term prognosis after sustained virological response (SVR) is achieved. However, in patients

Data‐driven discovery of gene expression markers distinguishing pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia subtypes

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study investigates gene expression differences between two major pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) subtypes, B‐cell precursor ALL, and T‐cell ALL, using a data‐driven approach consisting of biostatistics and machine learning methods. Following analysis of a discovery dataset, we find a set of 14 expression markers differentiating the ...

Coagulation parameters for the differential diagnosis of pancreatic cancer in the early stage: a retrospective study

European Journal of Medical Research, 2023
Background In recent years, conventional coagulation (CC) and thromboelastography (TEG) parameters have been reported to be closely related to the progression of pancreatic cancer (PC).

Pancreas Transplantation

Renal Failure, 1995
Vascularized pancreas transplantation has assumed an increasing role in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. Through 1994, over 6000 pancreas transplants had been performed worldwide, with over 80% being combined pancreas-kidney transplants. Overall 1-year patient survival exceeds 90% and graft survival (complete insulin independence) exceeds 70 ...

MicroRNA 196a contributes to the aggressiveness of esophageal adenocarcinoma through the MYC/TERT/NFκB axis

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
mir‐196a promotes Esophagus Adenocarcinoma aggressiveness. On one hand, mir‐196a targets the valosin‐containing protein (VCP) mRNA, causing the accumulation of c‐MYC protein that leads to high amounts of TERT. On the other hand, mir‐196a targets the inhibitor of NFκB (NFKBIA).

The feasibility and potential benefits of administering adjuvant chemotherapy in resected pancreatic cancer patients unable to promptly remove intraperitoneal drainage post-surgery: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Cancer
Objective Pancreatectomy remains associated with a high incidence of complications. In certain cases, patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) face challenges in removing intraperitoneal drainage after surgery, leading to potential delays in
