Effect and Mechanism of ALPPS Operation on Liver Regeneration
Hepatobiliary malignancies-principally hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA)-are highly aggressive and often diagnosed at advanced stages. Curative-intent liver resection remains the standard for resectable disease; however, postoperative outcomes depend on an adequate functional future liver remnant (FLR). Associating Liver Partition and Portal Vein Ligation for Staged Hepatectomy (ALPPS) induces rapid …
Estimation of Steatosis on Liver Transplants by Intraoperative Spectrometry
The goal is to have a small spectrometer (pocket size) , reliable and rapid tool that can be used during liver harvesting, which enables macrosteatosis to be evaluated reproducibly and selectively, at any time. This tool must be minimally invasive, inexpensive and without significantly impacting the general organization of multi-organ …
Lung Disease and Its Affect on the Work of White Blood Cells in the Lungs
The purpose of this study is to look at how Alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency and Cystic Fibrosis (CF) affect white blood cells in the lungs, called macrophages, and their ability to work.
An Exosome-Based Liquid Biopsy for the Differential Diagnosis of Primary Liver Cancer
It is sometimes difficult to precisely understand whether a primary liver cancer is a hepatocellular carcinoma or a cholangiocarcinoma. The researchers will develop and validate a liquid biopsy, based on exosomal content analysis and powered by machine learning, to help clinicians differentiate these two cancers before surgery.
Endoscopic Management of Non-anastomotic Biliary Strictures Following Liver Transplantation.
The study will evaluate the results of endoscopic treatment of NON-anastomotic biliary strictures following liver transplantation
Throid Dysfunction in Liver Failure and Its Eddects Upon Outcome
Liver plays an important role in the metabolism of thyroid hormones, as it is the most important organ in the peripheral conversion of tetraiodothyronine (T4) to triiodothyronine (T3) by Type 1 deiodinase.
Renal Biopsies in Post-liver Transplantation Patients With Renal Impairment
Investigators will conduct this single-center, prospective cohort study to explore the prevalence and risk factors of renal function progression in post-liver transplantation patients with renal impairment after renal biospy and to understand the the pathology of kidney disease in post-liver transplantation patients with renal impairment.
The Effect of Semaglutide on Cardiovascular Markers and Liver Function
Fifty patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) will be enrolled in the study. 25 patients will treated with semaglutide and 25 patients with dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (D-PP4) inhibitors. At baseline, at four and at 12 months will evaluate the endothelial, cardiovascular and liver function.
Exploration of a Novel Prognostic Prediction Model for Liver Cirrhosis
The liver, a key organ for metabolism and synthesis, is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism, as well as energy production. Hepatic injury and functional decline can lead to metabolic abnormalities in these three major nutrients, as well as in vitamins and trace elements. Malnutrition, one of the most …
Effect of Malnutrition on Liver and Spleen Stiffness in Children
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the effect of malnutrition on liver and spleen stiffness in children using shear wave elastography. Two groups of participants will be enrolled: children diagnosed with malnutrition and age-matched healthy controls. Organ stiffness measurements will be compared between the two groups to assess the …
