Comparison of conservative treatment versus transcatheter arterial embolisation for the treatment of spontaneously ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose: To elucidate the prognostic factors in the spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to determine whether transcatheter arterial embolisation (TAE) is associated with better prognosis compared to conservative treatment.

Prothrombin Activation Cycle.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1958
SummaryThe prothrombin activation cycle consists of a sequence described by the following: Prothrombin (sensitive to calcium + Ac-globulin + lung thromboplastin) → Prothrombin derivative I (not sensitive to calcium + Ac-globulin + lung thromboplastin) → Prothrombin derivative II (sensitive to calcium + Ac-globulin + lung thromboplastin) → Thrombin ...

Nationwide Real‐World Modeling of Surgical Outcomes in Elderly Patients: Incorporating Geriatric‐Specific Risk Factors Into Prediction of Mortality and Morbidity

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
A reliable and effective risk prediction model for mortality and morbidity in elderly patients undergoing gastroenterological surgeries was developed and validated. Geriatric‐specific risk factors, including the newly added variables in the NCD registry, along with age, were identified as significant contributors to the model. ABSTRACT Aim As the aging

Risk Factors for Small‐for‐Size Syndrome Grade B/C After Simultaneous Splenectomy in Adult Living‐Donor Liver Transplantation

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In a single‐center cohort of 577 adult LDLT recipients who underwent simultaneous splenectomy, clinically significant SFSS grade B/C (ILTS‐iLDLT‐LTSI 2023) occurred in 18.2% and was associated with inferior graft survival. Multivariate analysis identified MELD ≥ 30, NLR ≥ 4.5, and donor age ≥ 50 years as independent risk factors, which risk rising ...

A viable mouse model of factor X deficiency provides evidence for maternal transfer of factor X. [PDF]

, 2008
BackgroundActivated factor X (FXa) is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease that plays a pivotal role in blood coagulation by converting prothrombin to thrombin. There are no reports of humans with complete deficiency of FX, and knockout of murine F10 is

Cytosolic Phosphoenoylpyruvate Carboxykinase Deficiency: Clinical, Biochemical, and Genetic Features of Five Non‐Finnish Patients

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cytosolic phosphoenoylpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK‐C) is an essential, rate‐limiting enzyme in the gluconeogenesis pathway. PEPCK‐C deficiency presents with hypoglycaemia, hyperlactataemia and hepatopathy, and was first reported in association with bi‐allelic PCK1 variants in 2014.

Challenges of modeling pristane‐induced lupus in non‐human primates

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in cynomolgus monkeys was modeled by two intraperitoneal injections of pristane at a dose of 3.5 mL/kg, administered at weeks 1 and 23. Serum samples from all monkeys that received pristane tested positive for antinuclear antibodies.

Prothrombin conversion accelerates with increasing age in women but not in men: findings from the Moli-sani Cohort Study

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis
Background: The thrombin dynamics method has been used as an add-on analysis method for the thrombin generation test over the past years to study the balance between pro- and anticoagulant pathways.

Prognostic Value of Lupus Anticoagulant and Anti–β2 Glycoprotein I Antibody in Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective International criteria for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) include lupus anticoagulant (LA), anticardiolipin (aCL) IgG and IgM, and anti–β2‐glycoprotein I (β2GPI) IgG and IgM. However, evidence supporting their prognostic value or treatment efficacy in improving live birth rates is limited.
