Hemodynamic Evaluation of Nonselective \u3b2-Blockers in Patients with Cirrhosis and Refractory Ascites [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND:Nonselective \u3b2-blockers (NSBB) have been associated with increased incidence of paracentesis-induced circulatory dysfunction (PICD) and reduced survival in patients with cirrhosis and refractory ascites.

Non-invasive diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension [PDF]

, 2014
Cirrhosis is the final stage of most of chronic liver diseases, and is almost invariably complicated by portal hypertension, which is the most important cause of morbidity and mortality in these patients. This review will focus on the non-invasive methods

ULK4 and CDKN2A polymorphisms influence the risk of developing monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) is an asymptomatic precursor to multiple myeloma, sharing substantial genetic features with overt malignancy. Given evidence implicating autophagy in myeloma risk, this study examined whether genetic variations in autophagy‐related genes influence MGUS susceptibility.

Laparoscopic Resection of Caudate Lobe Liver Tumors in Clinical Practice

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The caudate lobe (Couinaud segment I), owing to its deep location in the posterosuperior liver, intimate encirclement by the inferior vena cava (IVC), and close adjacency to the hepatic hilum and major hepatic veins, presents a formidable anatomical challenge for resection.

Etiology and Clinical Outcome of Budd-Chiari Syndrome and Portal Vein Thrombosis [PDF]

, 2010
The liver receives approximately one-third of the resting cardiac output. Blood flow to the liver is supplied by both an arterial (hepatic artery) and a venous (portal vein) system and three hepatic veins provide drainage of blood from the liver to the ...

Association Between Multi‐Laboratory Parameters Pre‐ and Post‐Treatment and Pathological Features and Their Values in Clinical Decision in Primary Hepatic Carcinoma

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Primary hepatic cancer (PHC), especially hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is still a significant burden worldwide. The efficacy of diagnosis, treatment response monitoring, and prognostication using laboratory biomarkers is still a challenge. This study analyzed multi‐laboratory parameters pre‐ and post‐treatment and their associations with clinical and
