Epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, surveillance, and management of hepatocellular carcinoma associated with vascular liver disease

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 355-360, May 2021., 2021
Abstract Vascular liver disease (VLD) presents special challenges in the diagnosis, surveillance, and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HCC arising in the setting of vascular liver disease is often thought to be due to elevated hepatic arterial blood flow, rather than progressive fibrosis from chronic inflammation as with other chronic liver

Rationale and methods of a randomized trial evaluating the effect of neprilysin inhibition on left ventricular remodelling

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 129-138, February 2021., 2021
Abstract Aims In patients at high risk of heart failure following myocardial infarction (MI) as a result of residual left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD), the angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor sacubitril/valsartan may result in a greater attenuation of adverse left ventricular (LV) remodelling than renin angiotensin aldosterone system ...

Malignant Priapism as a Result of Metastatic Thyroid Cancer: A Hard Reality

Case Reports in Urology, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Metastasis to the penis is an extremely rare entity. Malignant priapism is defined as a persistent, nonsexual erection that is refractory to pharmacologic treatment, corporal aspiration, and surgical shunts. Furthermore, it is typically a hallmark of an advanced cancer that has metastasized, most commonly from regional organs like the prostate or ...

Development of Ectopic Livers by Hepatocyte Transplantation Into Swine Lymph Nodes

Liver Transplantation, Volume 26, Issue 12, Page 1629-1643, December 2020., 2020
Orthotopic liver transplantation continues to be the only effective therapy for patients with end‐stage liver disease. Unfortunately, many of these patients are not considered transplant candidates, lacking effective therapeutic options that would address both the irreversible progression of their hepatic failure and the control of their portal ...

Techniques for Management of Portal Vein Thrombosis during Liver Transplantation

Case Reports in Transplantation, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) poses a unique challenge in liver transplant. The management of PVT differs according to the extent of thrombosis. Anastomosis of a donor portal vein to a varix is a viable option when an adequate size varix is identified on preoperative imaging or intraoperatively.

The effect of different types of hepatic injury on the estrogen and androgen receptor activity of liver [PDF]

, 1989
Mammalian liver contains receptors for both estrogens and androgens. Hepatic regeneration after partial hepatectomy in male rats is associated with a loss of certain male-specific hepatic characteristics.

Effect of cyclosporine on hepatic energy status and on fructose metabolism after portacaval shunt in dog as monitored by phosphorus‐31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in vivo [PDF]

, 1991
The effect of cyclosporin A on the hepatic energy status and intracellular pH of the liver and its response to a fructose challenge has been investigated using in vivo phosphorus‐31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in dogs.
