LIVER TRANSPLANTATION FOR TYPE I GLYCOGEN STORAGE DISEASE [PDF]

, 1983
A 16½-year-old girl with type I glycogen storage disease was treated by orthotopic liver transplantation under cyclosporin/steroid immunosuppression. All metabolic stigmata of the disease were relieved and 1 year postoperatively she follows a normal diet

The incidence of portal vein thrombosis at liver transplantation [PDF]

, 1992
The incidence of portal vein thrombosis was examined in 885 patients who received orthotopic liver transplantations for various end‐stage liver diseases between 1989 and 1990. The thrombosis was classified into four grades.

Type of Preservation Solution, UW or HTK, Has an Impact on the Incidence of Biliary Stricture following Liver Transplantation: A Retrospective Study

Journal of Transplantation, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Organ preservation plays a crucial role in the outcome following solid organ transplantation. The aim of this study was to perform a retrospective outcome analysis following liver transplantation using histidine tryptophan ketoglutarate (HTK) or the University of Wisconsin (UW) solutions for liver graft preservation. We retrospectively reviewed data on

The metabolic and molecular mechanisms of hyperammonaemia‐ and hyperethanolaemia‐induced protein catabolism in skeletal muscle cells

Journal of Cellular Physiology, Volume 233, Issue 12, Page 9663-9673, December 2018., 2018
The findings from this study indicate that a combination of ammonia and ethanol incubation of C2C12 myotubes exacerbated muscle atrophy and dysregulation of anabolic and catabolic signalling pathways associated with either component individually. Our findings provide novel insight into the interactions between hyperammonaemia and hyperethanolaemia in ...

Commiphora molmol Modulates Glutamate‐Nitric Oxide‐cGMP and Nrf2/ARE/HO‐1 Pathways and Attenuates Oxidative Stress and Hematological Alterations in Hyperammonemic Rats

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
Hyperammonemia is a serious complication of liver disease and may lead to encephalopathy and death. This study investigated the effects of Commiphora molmol resin on oxidative stress, inflammation, and hematological alterations in ammonium chloride‐ (NH4Cl‐) induced hyperammonemic rats, with an emphasis on the glutamate‐NO‐cGMP and Nrf2/ARE/HO‐1 ...

Worsening of cerebral hyperemia by the administration of terlipressin in acute liver failure with severe hepatic encephalopathy [PDF]

, 2004
There is increasing evidence that terlipressin is useful in patients with cirrhosis and hepatorenal syndrome, but there are no data of its use in patients with acute liver failure (ALF) in whom hepatorenal syndrome is common.

Establishment of a Novel Simplified Surgical Model of Acute Liver Failure in the Cynomolgus Monkey

BioMed Research International, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Models using large animals that are suitable for studying artificial liver support system (ALSS) are urgently needed. Presently available acute liver failure (ALF) models mainly involve pigs or dogs. Establishment of current surgical ALF models (hepatectomy/devascularization) requires either very good surgical skills or multistep processes—even ...

Association between Portal Vein Thrombosis and Survival in Non‐Liver‐Transplant Patients with Liver Cirrhosis: A Systematic Review of the Literature

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
A systematic review of the literature was performed to analyze the association between portal vein thrombosis (PVT) and survival in non‐liver‐transplant patients with liver cirrhosis. PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for all relevant papers which evaluated the prognostic value of PVT in predicting the survival of liver ...

Gallbladder Cancer in the 21st Century

Journal of Oncology, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is an uncommon disease in the majority of the world despite being the most common and aggressive malignancy of the biliary tree. Early diagnosis is essential for improved prognosis; however, indolent and nonspecific clinical presentations with a paucity of pathognomonic/predictive radiological features often preclude accurate ...

The effect of partial portacaval transposition on the canine liver [PDF]

, 1967
The influence of nonhepatic splanchnic venous blood on dog liver morphology and biochemical content was investigated by performing partial portacaval transposition, anastomosing the supra-adrenal inferior vena cava to either the right or left branch of ...
