Carcinoembryonic Antigen Messenger RNA in Pelvic Lavage Fluid Predicts Local Recurrence After Curative‐Intent Resection of Rectal Cancer

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Pelvic lavage carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) mRNA was quantified in 178 patients undergoing curative‐intent resection for rectal cancer. Positive pelvic lavage CEA mRNA was significantly associated with local recurrence and provided additional prognostic information beyond circumferential resection margin (CRM) status.

Laparoscopic Surgery Is Associated With Reduced Small Bowel Obstruction Risk After Colorectal Cancer Surgery: A Nationwide Cohort Study of 5458 Patients

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Abbreviated Abstract This nationwide retrospective cohort study of 5458 colorectal cancer surgeries across 32 Japanese institutions examined the effects of laparoscopic surgery, adhesion prevention materials (APMs), and stoma creation on the 5‐year risk of small bowel obstruction (SBO).

Effects of spironolactone on residual renal function and peritoneal function in peritoneal dialysis patients

open access: yes, 2021
There is increasing evidence that long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) is associated with structural changes in the peritoneal membrane. Inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system has been demonstrated to lessen peritoneal injury and to slow the decline in

Integrating Genetic Modifier Genotype With Serum Proteomics in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Clinical Trials Links LTBP4 Genetic Modifier to IL‐23/CD93 Pathways in Muscle

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genetic modifiers of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) that alter disease severity or response to therapy have been reported using natural history or registry data sets of older corticosteroid‐treated patients. We tested associations of genetic modifiers on motor function outcomes in young (4 to < 7 years) steroid naïve clinical trial ...

Refining OVCAR‐3 xenograft models of peritoneal carcinomatosis in nu/nu mice: Comparative intraperitoneal implantation strategies and the role of basement membrane matrix

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A refined murine model of advanced ovarian cancer was established by comparing localized preperitoneal implantation and intraperitoneal injection of OVCAR‐3Luc cells. While localized implantation showed limited tumor persistence, intraperitoneal delivery with BME produced sustained diffuse dissemination confirmed by BLI and histology, providing a ...

3,4-dideoxyglucosone-3-ene in peritoneal dialysis fluids infused into the peritoneal cavity cannot be found in plasma. [Elektronisk resurs]

open access: yes, 2009
OBJECTIVE: Glucose degradation products (GDPs) are important for the outcome of peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment. The most cytotoxic GDP found in conventionally manufactured fluids, 3,4-dideoxyglucosone-3-ene (3,4-DGE), may in addition be recruited ...

Old and new perspectives on peritoneal dialysis in Italy emerging from the Peritoneal Dialysis Study Group Census.

open access: yes, 2012
Background: To understand how peritoneal dialysis (PD) was being used in Italy in 2005 and 2008, a census of all centers was carried out. Methods: In 2005 and 2008, data were collected from, respectively, 222 and 223 centers, with respect to 4432 and ...

Marine‐Derived Type I Collagen From Scyliorhinus canicula: Extraction, Characterization, and Biomedical Applications

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Marine‐derived type I collagen is extracted from Scyliorhinus canicula skin and characterized by physicochemical and morphological analyses. The collagen exhibits excellent biocompatibility, promotes wound healing, reduces inflammatory mediators, and inhibits melanogenesis.
