This observational study aims to learn about the correlation between the improving comorbidities associated with obesity after MGB (Mini-Gastric Bypass) surgery and changes in body composition in morbidly obese patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: To study the correlation between the improving comorbidities associated with obesity after …
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 …
Background Multiple Myeloma remains an incurable hematologic malignancy, and outcomes for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) remain unsatisfactory despite advances in therapy. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Epunamin combined with a DECP-based regimen in a real-world clinical setting. Methods This multicenter, single-arm, real-world observational study will …
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 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 …
In this study, the investigators aim to determine the dose-effect relationship between radiation dose and liver function by performing a hepatobiliary scintigraphy (HEBIS) before and after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for patients with liver metastases. HEBIS is a nuclear imaging technique to quantitatively assess liver function. It better predicts the …
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 …
Acetaminophen (APAP) is the most commonly used NSAIDS in clinic, and it is also a common cause of drug-induced liver injury (DILI). In 2012, the proportion of DILI caused by APAP in the United States was 51%, while in Asia, it was only 7.10%. Previously, a small cohort study in …
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 …
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 …
