This study seeks to learn more about the vitamin D receptor and its relationship to colon cancer. The Vitamin D receptor is found in colon cancer cells. When Vitamin D binds to the receptor in the cancer cells, it may stop cancer cells from growing abnormally and may cause cancer …
To achieve adequate tumor treatment coverage with sufficient minimal ablation margins, several steps are required: firstly, it is critical to define tumor boundaries and extent on intra-procedural CT image; secondly, accurate planning, targeting, and confirmation of ablation probe placement within the tumor; thirdly, the use of an intra-procedural imaging assessment …
Liver transplantation is a life-saving procedure for patients with end-stage liver disease, and postoperative pain management is critical for optimizing donor recovery and overall outcomes. Poorly controlled pain following donor hepatectomy may reduce quality of life, delay mobilization, and contribute to the development of chronic pain syndromes. Regional anesthesia techniques, …
The primary objective of the study is to determine the accuracy of CEUS in characterizing (as benign or malignant) focal liver lesions for which CT, MRI and/or PET have not been conclusive.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if mesenchymal stem cells in blood purification works to treat liver failure in adults. It will also learn about the safety and effectiveness of mesenchymal stem cells in blood purification. The main questions it aims to answer are:1.Does mesenchymal stem cells …
observational study through which we aim to collect information on metabolic compensation, the degree of satisfaction with hypoglycemic therapy, the onset of complications of diabetes or liver disease, evaluation of survival, in patients on the list for at least three months or already undergoing liver transplantation for at least three …
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide, and is associated with obesity and the metabolic syndrome. Physical activity and lifestyle interventions are among the most recommended treatments for individuals with MASLD. In this RCT, we will evaluate the effect of combined exercise training "strength …
Liver transplantation (LT) is a high-risk surgery for hemodynamic instability and haemorrhagic shock with a high-risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). Indeed, the incidence of post-transplant AKI exceeds 50% in some series with 15% of patients requiring renal replacement therapy. Acute kidney injury after LT is a predisposing factor for …
This international multi-centre phase 3 randomized control trial investigates whether giving a very high dose of radiation in a single treatment session (ultra-high dose: experimental) using advanced technology called MR-Linac is more effective than a high dose (control) for treating liver tumors that have spread from other parts of the …
Liver tumours, 40% of which are benign, account for 1% to 4% of all solid tumours in children. The benign tumours are mainly haemangiomas, liver hamartomas, and liver cell adenomas. The malignant tumours are mainly hepatoblastoma, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), malignant liver mesothelioma, and rhabdomyosarcoma. The differential diagnosis of liver masses …
