As the bioavailability of flavonoids is influenced by intestinal metabolism, we have investigated microbial deconjugation and degradation several flavonols flavonol glycosides using pig cecum in vitro model system developed our group. For this microbiota was directly isolated from cecal lumen freshly slaughtered pigs. The characterization fluorescence situ hybridization (FISH) with 16S rRNA-based oligonucleotide probes confirmed suitability for studying metabolism human microbiota. We...
Malignant ascites is common in metastatic pancreatic cancer (mPC) and its management still remains a clinical challenge. Early identification of patients at risk for development may support guide treatment decisions.Data treated mPC the Medical University Vienna between 2010 2019 were collected by retrospective chart review. Ascites was defined as clinically relevant accumulation intraperitoneal fluid diagnosed ultrasound or computer tomography scan abdomen. We investigated association...
Identification of factors associated with survival after ascites diagnosis in metastatic pancreatic cancer (mPC) patients may guide treatment decisions and help to maintain quality life this highly symptomatic patient collective.
While colorectal and gastroesophageal cancer represent the two gastrointestinal (GI) tumor entities with highest incidence of brain metastatic (BM) disease, data on clinical course BM patients from hepatopancreatobiliary malignancies are rare. Patients cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP NEN). Treated for between 1991 2017 at an academic care center were included. Brain...
Background: Parenteral nutrition is controversial in patients with advanced cancer. Nevertheless, this treatment common practice near the end of life. Aim: We aimed to identify factors which were associated outcome on parenteral at an academic tertiary palliative care unit. Design: In retrospective cohort study assigned two groups according treatment. Inferential statistics used assess whether dynamics laboratory variables over 2 weeks survival. Setting/Participants: Patients admitted...
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is frequently administered in palliative care patients suffering from cachexia. The evidence regarding the use of PN terminally ill scarce. Routine laboratory parameters might help to decide whether start or forgo PN, which could decrease overtreatment at end life. Kidney failure was associated with survival. However, a relation between kidney function and parenteral has not been observed thus far. aim this retrospective cohort study analyze under as well these overall
