Impact of Recanalization on Liver Hypertrophy after Portal Vein Embolization and the Role of Re‐Embolization

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study of 249 patients undergoing hepatectomy after right portal vein embolization (PVE) demonstrated that major recanalization–defined as recanalization more than one segment within the embolized liver–was associated with impaired regeneration of the future liver remnant (FLR).

Expression of MMP-2 in residual VX2 liver tumor after transcatheter arterial embolization combined with portal venous embolization in an animal model

Journal of Interventional Medicine, 2020
Objective: This study aimed to analyze the effects of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) combined with portal venous embolization (PVE) on the expression of MMP-2 in residual VX2 liver tumor tissues, liver function and non-embolic lobe ...

Differences in Right Hepatic Duct Length Among Left‐Sided Hepatectomies: Conventional Hepatectomy Versus Extended Hepatectomy Versus Trisectionectomy

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Left‐sided hepatectomy for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma includes conventional left hepatectomy (C‐LH; H1234‐B), extended left hepatectomy (E‐LH; H12345′8′‐B‐MHV), and left trisectionectomy (LT; H123458‐B). The anatomical characteristics of the resected length of the right hepatic duct (RHD) in E‐LH remain unclear.

Progress Toward Efficient Wide‐Gap Cu(In,Ga)(S,Se)2 Thin‐Film Solar Cells

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
Wide‐gap Cu (In,Ga)(S,Se)2 thin‐film solar cells are studied in view of their performance, limitations, and opportunities for further optimization. Different sources of open circuit voltage limitations were discussed and weighted. Interface recombination appears the main recombination channel, which however can be influenced heavy alkali treatment ...

A Self‐Supervised Machine Learning Approach for the Estimation of Open‐Circuit Voltage Degradation in Photovoltaic Systems

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
This study introduces a self‐supervised machine learning approach integrating physics‐based principles to estimate open‐circuit voltage (voc$$ {v}_{oc} $$) degradation in photovoltaic systems using SCADA data. By combining clustering and regression algorithms, our method detects performance deviations without labelled datasets.

Study protocol of the HYPER-LIV01 trial: a multicenter phase II, prospective and randomized study comparing simultaneous portal and hepatic vein embolization to portal vein embolization for hypertrophy of the future liver remnant before major hepatectomy for colo-rectal liver metastases

BMC Cancer, 2020
Background In patients undergoing major liver resection, portal vein embolization (PVE) has been widely used to induce hypertrophy of the non-embolized liver in order to prevent post-hepatectomy liver failure.

Integrated genomic and transcriptomic approaches reveal oxidative stress adaptation mechanisms in a mesotrione‐resistant Amaranthus tuberculatus biotype

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Integrated GWAS and transcriptomics in a Canadian waterhemp biotype reveal mesotrione resistance is polygenic and metabolically driven. Significant SNPs and 187 herbicide‐responsive genes point to enhanced redox homeostasis, glutathione‐linked detoxification, lipid/secondary metabolism, and oxidative stress responses. Resistance arises from coordinated,
