Total and segmental liver volume variations حسب Abdalla, Eddie

"…This reproducible, noninvasive procedure is necessary because significant interpatient variation is believed to exist in the relative contributions of the hepatic segments to TLV.11 CT volumetry accurately predicts TLV on the basis of body surface area or body weight,12 which may achieve the true goal of preoperative CT volumetry of the liver, that is to estimate the individual patient's hepatic metabolic demands after resection or transplantation.7 Complications associated with technical aspects of liver surgery are decreasing, and focus has concurrently shifted to analysis of postoperative complications after major hepatic resection and liver transplantation on the basis of liver remnant volume and graft volume.3., 4., 6., 7., 8. and 13. …"

Interleukin-35 and Thymoquinone nanoparticle-based intervention for liver protection against paracetamol-induced liver injury in rats حسب Maisa Siddiq Abduh (16381125)

"…<p>Paracetamol (PAR) is a commonly used antipyretic and analgesic agent, but its excessive usage can induce liver damage and major health consequences. Interleukin-35 (IL-35) is utilized to treat immunological disorders, intestinal illness, arthritis, allergic disease, hepatitis, and cancer. …"

Resection of liver metastases from breast cancer حسب Abbott, Daniel

"…On multivariate analysis, estrogen receptor–negative primary breast disease (P = .009; hazard ratio, 3.3; 95% confidence interval, 1.4–8.2) and preoperative progressive disease (P = .003; hazard ratio, 3.8; 95% confidence interval, 1.6–9.2) were associated with decreased overall survival. Conclusion Resection of breast cancer liver metastases in patients with estrogen receptor–positive disease that is responding to chemotherapy is associated with improved survival. …"

Adaptation Effectiveness and Free-Riding Incentives in International Environmental Agreements حسب Benchekroun, Hassan

"…While an international agreement over the reduction of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions proves to be elusive, there is a large and growing support for investment in developing more effective technologies to adapt to climate change. We show that an increase in effectiveness of adaptation will diminish the incentive of individual countries to free-ride on a global agreement over emissions. …"

Surgical Strategies for Synchronous Colorectal Liver Metastases in 156 Consecutive Patients حسب Bouquet, Antoine

"…Surgical resection of all tumor sites is the only treatment that enables prolonged survival, but the synchronous presentation of CLM has been associated with poor outcomes.1 Preoperative chemotherapy is widely used in these patients to provide early treatment of metastatic disease, to improve patient selection for surgical resection,2 and 3 and to decrease the recurrence rate after surgery.4 The traditional surgical strategy for patients with resectable synchronous CLM includes resection of the primary tumor followed by chemotherapy and then liver resection. …"

Effectiveness of Positron Emission Tomography for Predicting Chemotherapy Response in Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases حسب Glazer, Evan

"…For example, a few years ago an extrahepatic metastasis effectively eliminated surgical resection, but a combination of chemotherapeutic options and surgical techniques has expanded the indications for resection and increased the population of patients who may benefit.1,2 Neoadjuvant chemotherapy has increased the resectability rate by 11% to 37%.1 Unfortunately, greater than 80% of patients undergoing hepatic resection will have recurrences, mostly within the first 2 years.2 Nonetheless, the only hope for cure is resection, and prior surgical dogma based on the number of lesions, size of the tumor-free resection margin, and presence of resectable extrahepatic disease must be questioned.3- 5 The current standard approach to surgical planning is contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for specific tumor characteristics or contraindications to CT.6 Several series showed that focal extrahepatic disease, an isolated pulmonary lesion, can be safely resected, with 5-year survival rates of 29% to 58%.7,8 In 1 series,7 17 of 30 patients required 3 or more resections. …"
