The gut microbiota is critical to health and functions with a level of complexity comparable to that of an organ system. Dysbiosis, or alterations of this gut microbiota ecology, have been implicated in a number of disease states. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), defined as infusion of feces from healthy donors …
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Holmium-166 (Ho-166) transarterial radioembolization (TARE) for treating patients with locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a common type of liver cancer. HCC is often linked to conditions like liver cirrhosis and viral hepatitis, with a poor prognosis for advanced stages. TARE …
Background Handgrip strength , a core indicator of muscle function, has been confirmed to be significantly associated with the clinical prognosis of patients with liver cirrhosis. However, no studies have explored its correlation with portal venous hemodynamics. Objective The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of Handgrip …
The purpose of this study is to measure how much LY3537031 gets into the bloodstream and how long it takes the body to eliminate it in participants with mild, moderate and severe impaired liver function and in healthy participants with normal liver function. The safety and tolerability of LY3537031 will …
Liver transplantation is a procedure associated with an exceptionally high risk of blood loss. Liver failure, which is the most common indication for transplantation, not only leads to coagulation disorders but also to the development of portal hypertension. As a result, collateral circulation forms within the abdominal venous system, significantly …
To evaluate the diagnostic value of the combined model of subharmonic-assisted pressure estimation (SHAPE), liver stiffness (LSM), and platelet count (PLT) for high-risk esophageal and gastric varices (HRV)
In this study the investigators will quantitate hepatic mitochondrial fluxes in T2D patients with NAFL and NASH before and after 16-weeks treatment with the insulin sensitizer pioglitazone
The patients with non-resectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) have always being considered a particular subgroup of CRLM in which the therapeutic approach, is focused on strategies that allow a potential surgery like neoadjuvant systemic treatments. But, the underlying biology that causes this particular profile of spread in a proportion of …
Patients with unresectable liver metastases (LM) from colorectal cancer (CRC)have a poor prognosis. In patients with resectable disease, surgery offers a distinct survival benefit. This study will offer live donor liver transplantation (LDLT) to select patients with unresectable metastases that are 1) limited to the liver and 2) stable (non-progressing) …
Liver resection is the treatment of choice in patients with malignant liver lesions. Unfortunately, the surgery is not always an option, as in same patients the future remnant liver (FRL) is too small to supply all the functions. Therefore, some additional methods have been proposed to increase the size of …
