Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound to Evaluate Response to Chemoembolization in Patients With Liver Tumors
This phase II trial evaluates the diagnostic performance of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) for assessing treatment response in patients undergoing transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for liver tumors. TACE is a hepatic artery embolization technique involving the injection of a blocking agent and a chemotherapy agent to treat liver cancers. Currently, contrast enhanced …
TheraSphere Japan Pre-Market Study
To investigate the safety and effectiveness of BSJ019T in Japanese patients with primary or secondary liver who are not candidate for standard treatment.
Early TIPS in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis and Ascites
The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) implantation with standard treatment (diuretic medications, and if necessary, paracenteses) in patients with liver cirrhosis and development of ascites as the first decompensating event. By creating a shunt between the liver …
NAC- NAFLD And Cushing
Cushing's Syndrome is a rare disease resulting from prolonged exposure to high levels of circulating cortisol. Clinical manifestations are variable but many patients present a metabolic syndrome (abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, hypertension). With regard to the liver, experimental data have shown that excess cortisol leads in an increase in …
The Liver Care Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of screening for liver disease with liver stiffness measurement on abstinence or light consumption after 6 months in individuals who are receiving treatment for alcohol use disorder and without a history of liver disease. The investigators will conduct a …
Hepatocellular Carcinoma Liver Organoids
The goal of this interventional study is to create hepatocellular carcinoma organoids from liver bioptic samples of individuals with hepatocellular carcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: the feasibility of hepatocellular carcinoma organoids integrated with host gut microbiota and peripheral blood mononuclear cells the molecular pattern of the …
The Metabolic Impact of Intermittent Carbohydrate Restriction in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes
The primary aim of this randomized cross-over intervention study is to investigate the effect of four weeks of intermittent carbohydrate restriction (alternating between two days of normal dietary intake and two days of carbohydrate restriction to 70-90 grams) on 24-hour average sensor glucose in individuals with type 2 diabetes compared …
Change of Adipose Tissues and Triglyceride After Bariatric Surgery or Life-style Intervention
The study is aimed To quantify the change of adipose tissues, triglyceride in liver and pancreas and cholesterol after lifestyle intervention or bariatric surgery. To test the hypothesis that Brown fat is an independent biomarker for the development of Non Alcoholic Fat Liver Disease (NAFLD) To study the association among …
Effect of HFNC on Incidence of Hypoxia During Sedated Gastrointestinal Endoscopy in Critical Patients
High flow nasal cannula oxygenation (HFNC) offers high flow and concentration oxygen delivery, providing excellent non-respiratory oxygenation. As a relatively new oxygen delivery method, it has gained widespread use. We have demonstrated that high flow nasal cannula oxygenation reduce the incidence of hypoxia during sedated gastrointestinal endoscopy in patients with …
To Study Effect of Injection Pentoxifylline on Liver Growth After Major Liver Surgery
Posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) remains a significant life-threatening problem after major hepatectomies. Pentoxifylline is shown to have potent vasodilating properties for peripheral blood vessels, along with the hepatic vasculature. In a Double-blinded, randomized, controlled trial (RCT) at a single tertiary care center (2006-2009) by Petrowsky, Henrik et al (Annals of …
