Portal vein embolization with N-butyl-cyanoacrylate improves liver hypertrophy compared to microparticles – A Swedish multicenter cohort study

Heliyon, 2023
Background: An adequate future liver remnant (FLR) is fundamental for major liver resections. To achieve sufficient FLR, portal vein embolization (PVE) may be used. The most effective material for PVE has yet to be determined.

In situ split plus portal vein ligation (ISLT) – a salvage procedure following inefficient portal vein embolization to gain adequate future liver remnant volume prior to extended liver resection

BMC Surgery, 2020
Background Right extended liver resection is frequently required to achieve tumor-free margins. Portal venous embolization (PVE) of the prospective resected hepatic segments for conditioning segments II/III does not always induce adequate hypertrophy in ...

Digital Orientation and Green Practices in Chilean SMEs: Innovation as the Pathway to Competitive Performance

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how digital strategic orientation (DSO) and environmental practices (EP) interact to shape innovation and performance among Chilean SMEs. Using survey data from 271 firms (February–May 2022), we estimate a generalized structured component analysis (GSCA) model that accommodates a nonrecursive relationship between DSO and EP.
