Kombucha, a fermented beverage made from Camellia sinensis tea (black, oolong, or green) with sugar and a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY), has gained global attention for its potential health benefits. Factors like the type and amount of sugar substrate, fermentation time, and temperature significantly influence its organic …
Liver transplantation is an effective method for treating end-stage liver disease and metabolic diseases in children. With the advancement of surgical techniques and the improvement of perioperative management, the survival rates of patients and grafts after liver transplantation have significantly improved. However, the complication of biliary stenosis after transplantation is …
The extent of hepatic resection for gallbladder cancer can be done from a wedge resection to 4b/5 bisegmentectomy. This study aims to compare the recurrence rates and survival rates between wedge resection group and bisegmentectomy group. Patients with T2 or T3 gallbladder cancer on preoperative CT exam or patients who …
Growth Hormone (GH) is essential for maintaining fat, muscle, bone, and energy balance. Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD) affects about 0.3% of adults. GHD, common post-pituitary tumor surgery or radiotherapy, disrupts lipid metabolism, increasing triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol while decreasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. This is especially severe in GH …
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignant tumor worldwide and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Despite recent progress in CRC research, approximately 15% to 30% of patients have metastatic lesions at the time of initial diagnosis, and another 20% to 50% of patients with primary localized …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if spirulina can help protect the liver and promote recovery after partial hepatectomy (surgery to remove part of the liver). It will also learn about the safety of spirulina in patients undergoing liver surgery. The main questions it aims to answer …
This phase II trial tests how well the combination of celecoxib with durvalaumab and tremellimumab works in treating patients with hepatocellular cancer (liver cancer) that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has spread from …
This study seeks to better understand the liver's immune response to receiving chemotherapy agent melphalan through Percutaneous Hepatic Perfusion (PHP) for patients with Uveal Melanoma that has metastasized to the liver.
This study evaluates respiratory recovery as a multidimensional construct using clinically relevant and measurable parameters, including LUS, diaphragmatic excursion, oxygen requirement, and PPCs. The investigators hypothesize that bilateral ESP block improves postoperative respiratory function compared with EOIP block following open hepatic surgery. The investigators further hypothesize that this improvement is …
The rationale for this study is to evaluate whether a standardized, preoperative, short-term Low Calorie Diet (LCD) reduces intraoperative bleeding and postoperative morbidity in liver surgery. Participants with a BMI of 30 or higher, scheduled for liver surgery, if accepting participation, will be randomized to a 7 day LCD or …
