Abstract Background This multicentre cohort study sought to define a robust pathological indicator of clinically meaningful response neoadjuvant chemotherapy in oesophageal adenocarcinoma. Methods A questionnaire was distributed 11 UK upper gastrointestinal cancer centres determine the use assessment chemotherapy. Records consecutive patients undergoing oesophagogastric resection at seven between January 2000 and December 2013 were reviewed. Pathological assessed using Mandard Tumour...
Macrophages are critical components of the innate immune response in liver. Chronic hepatitis C is associated with infiltration and infected liver shows a significant increase total macrophage numbers; however, their role viral life cycle poorly understood. Activation blood-derived intrahepatic macrophages panel Toll-like receptor agonists induce soluble mediators that promote virus (HCV) entry into polarized hepatoma cells. We identified tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) as major cytokine...
The correlation between ovarian venous insufficiency and lower limb remains poorly understood. Clinically, incompetent veins in association with extremity varicose are suspected when leg found atypical distributions. Such distributions include upper lateral or posterior thigh, on the buttocks, crossing inguinal ligament, also vulval perineal regions. aim of this study was to determine prevalence those clinically suspicious veins, assess effectiveness embolization/ligation treating...
As the demographics of population changes, increasing challenges are being faced in providing reliable access for dialysis. This article reports on outcomes from largest series to date using early cannulation graft Flixene a single centre.Between May 2012 and March 2018, 141 grafts were placed dialysis access. The arteriovenous reviewed retrospectively electronically held records imaging.In 75 patients, placement was performed an emergency basis 66 patients planned elective list. 12-month...
Liver transplantation has become a victim of its own success in that there are no longer enough suitable livers for while at the same time indications increase. Efforts to expand number recipients who benefit from this life-saving procedure being made, particular through use split grafts and live donors. However, such associated with increased morbidity mortality related their reduced size.
Abstract Aim To design and facilitate an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol for the Wessex Kidney Centre (WKC) live donors renal transplants. This audit focussed on post-operative analgesia guidelines average length of hospital stay post ERAS implementation. Method An was created living donors. The incorporated pre, peri to optimise patient care. based a survey sent all transplant units in UK regarding their own pathways donors(13/23 responded). then trialled throughout 2020...
