This phase III clinical trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of autologous Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSC) injected hepatic artery.
Cirrhosis is characterized by loss of muscle as well as fat mass, which increases morbidity and mortality before, during, and after liver transplantation. A common mechanism for the reduced muscle and fat mass in cirrhosis is an increased expression of the TGF (transforming growth factor)beta superfamily member, myostatin, in the …
The proposed of this randomized, double blinded, placebo-controlled study is to assess the effect of SAMe compared to placebo in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis Child Class A and B. The primary objective of the study is to test relationship between SAMe (S-adenosylmethionine) supplement on liver function. The hypothesis is that …
Fasting blood glucose is maintained by hepatic production of glucose from glycogenolysis or gluconeogenesis. In cirrhosis, glycogen storage capacity is reduced, with a consequent increase in gluconeogenesis to maintain blood glucose levels. Hypoglycaemia is particularly common during periods of prolonged nocturnal fasting. Cirrhosis can therefore be considered an 'accelerated fasting' …
Patients of cirrhosis aged 18 to 75 years who have no esophageal varices will be enrolled. After baseline evaluation, the participants will be randomized to receive either Placebo or Carvedilol 12.5 mg BD. After randomization they will be followed up for one year.
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a psychiatric disorder belonging to the eating disorders (EDs). It is internationally recognized as a priority for improving health care. Among the markers of severity of undernutrition is hepatic cytolysis. Around 30-50% of patients with AN present with hepatic cytolysis, of variable intensity, and usually associated …
Patients with cirrhosis are frequently hospitalized due to an acute decompensation of their liver disease including bleeding, jaundice, encephalopathy, and volume overload. Volume overload is associated with increased mortality from acute hypoxic respiratory failure, hemorrhage from esophageal varices, and spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. Clinical practice guidelines describe sodium restriction and diuretics …
Gastric cancer is the third leading cause of morbidity and mortality among malignant tumors in China, and less than 30% of patients can be cured by surgery. Liver metastasis, retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis and peritoneal metastasis are the most common metastatic sites of gastric cancer, which are also the important …
The aim of the study is to investigate if iv iron formulation improve recovery after surgery with blood loss. Post-operative anaemia is a common debilitating condition after major surgery due to a combination of preoperative iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) and per-operative blood loss. Median blood loss following hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) and …
iNeo-Vac-R01, a personalized neoantigen-based mRNA therapeutic technology for tumors, is a customized neoantigen mRNA injectable formulation developed by collecting patients' tumor tissues and peripheral blood, screening appropriate neoantigens via high-throughput sequencing, and encapsulating these neoantigens into mRNA liposomes. It can precisely induce the proliferation of patient-specific T cells to eliminate …
