C-reactive protein (CRP) was recently identified as a prognostic factor for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after surgical resection. We investigated the relationship between serum levels of high sensitivity CRP (H-CRP) and prognosis HCC patients.We conducted cohort study 90 enrolled from 1997 to 1998. All were treated followed mean period 3.2 years. Clinical variables compared positive H-CRP (serum >/=3.0 mg/L, n=47) those negative <3.0 n=43). also determined in patients.The...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Exacerbation of liver damage during transhepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (THAIC) is a critical complication in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We previously reported that HBe antigen positivity was the associating factor for exacerbation damage. In present study, we investigated effect lamivudine administration such patients. PATIENTS METHODS: Seventeen HBV-related who received THAIC were reviewed. Eight these...
Surveillance of cirrhotic patients enables early detection hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and possibly prolongs survival. The aim this study was to explore whether early-stage HCC can be detected earlier at a specialized department liver disease than in other institutions.The subjects were 574 with HCC. Patients subdivided into 3 groups according the manner detection: group A, 91 during periodic examination Kurume University School Medicine; B, 301 institutions; C, incidentally or because...
Abstract Background Real‐world outcomes of nivolumab treatment for gastric cancer and associated prognostic factors remain unclear; the present study aimed to evaluate both items. Methods A total 278 consecutive patients treated with during 2017‐2019 were enrolled in this multi‐institutional retrospective cohort study. The impact laboratory findings, immune‐related adverse events (irAEs), clinicopathological on long‐term survival was evaluated using Cox proportional hazards model. Results...
To assess the value of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for determining histologic type benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Unenhanced T1- and T2-weighted images gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted were obtained in transverse plane at 1.5 T 33 patients with BPH. Hyperphasia was classified as stromal or nonstromal. Nonstromal diagnosed if (a) nodules inner gland had heterogeneous high signal intensity on peripheral enhancement images, (b) a surgical capsule present, (c) volume to total ratio...
Abstract BACKGROUND Des‐γ‐carboxy prothrombin (DCP) has been reported to be an important prognostic factor in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Recently, a monoclonal antibody, 19B7, which recognizes the Gla domain of DCP, identified. The 19B7 antibody epitope different from that recognized by MU‐3, is another against DCP. In this study, authors investigated measurement DCP using antibodies MU‐3 and respectively, as for HCC who had solitary, small tumors or Child Stage A HCC....
This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of (18)F-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography (PET) and PET plus computed (CT) fusion images for detection extrahepatic metastases hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) combined cholangiocarcinoma (combined HCC/CC).Twenty-one patients with HCC HCC/CC were enrolled in from December 2004 February 2005. In all patients, CT chest pelvis region performed. The sensitivity was compared PET, CT, bone scintigraphy.In 14 a total 58 diagnosed. rate...
We describe a case with focally spared area in fatty liver caused by arterioportal shunt. Furthermore, we discuss the cause of related to localized dilution or reduction portal blood flow.
The cellular uptake of Adriamycin (ADR) by solid tumors consisting Ehrlich ascites tumor cells (EATC) was investigated. intracellular levels ADR in the EATC were measured flow cytometry. heated at various temperatures for 30 min after vivo administration to mice into which inoculared. amount excised from treated with 40°C hyperthermia increased 80% over that determined those body temperature. However, quantity received 43°C similar These results indicate combined therapy using and has both...
A case of lymphoid hyperplasia arising in the large intestine a 54‐year‐old woman is described. Barium enema X‐ray and colonoscopic examination revealed multiple small polyps right side colon. Pathological findings from forceps biopsy similar features to mucosa‐associated tissue (MALT) lymphoma. hemicolectomy with mesenteric lymph node dissection was carried out. Histological sectioning demonstrated hypertrophic follicles well‐formed germinal centers. Occasionally, lymphocytes infiltrated...
GOALS, BACKGROUND: The elderly population has been increasing during the last half a century and it would be important to know how aging influences occurrence biologic behavior of cancers.We investigated clinicopathologic characteristics colorectal cancer in 1354 patients who underwent resection compared results between extremely (over 80 years old) middle-aged/elderly (40 less than old). Furthermore, we also examined expression tumor suppressor genes Cox-2 using frozen samples obtained from...
