The IN.PACT Global Study is the largest prospective, multicenter, independently adjudicated trial to evaluate a paclitaxel drug-coated balloon in patients with lifestyle-limiting claudication and/or ischemic rest pain due atherosclerotic disease of femoropopliteal artery and includes complex lesions beyond what are typically included randomized controlled trials. Randomized trials have demonstrated safety efficacy balloons for treatment Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus Document II A B...
To report the 36-month outcomes from prospective, multicenter, single-arm IN.PACT Global Study (
We evaluated 158 legs from 79 consecutive patients who had undergone both ankle-brachial index (ABI) measurements and angiography for claudication symptoms between January 2007 December 2008. The diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the individual was established by angiography. Ankle-brachial considered abnormal if it <0.9. sensitivity specificity ABI 61% 87%, respectively. To assess factors affecting validity PAD, multivariate logistic regression analysis conducted. odds...
Biliary complication (BC) is still regarded as the Achilles’ heel of a living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). This study aims to evaluate longterm outcomes duct‐to‐duct (DD) biliary reconstruction using 7‐0 suture and identify risk factors BCs after LDLTs. Data 140 LDLTs between 2006 2015 were analyzed. All reconstructions performed DD anastomoses suture: 102 for right lobe, 20 left 18 posterior sector grafts. BC was defined bile leakage (BL) or stricture (BS), median follow‐up time LDLT...

Abstract Background and Aim Circulating microRNA (miR)‐122 has recently been investigated as a potential biomarker of various hepatic diseases, such chronic hepatitis hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We the association between plasma miR‐122 levels treatment outcomes following transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in HCC patients. Methods included 177 patients treated with TACE study; refractoriness liver transplantation‐free survival were evaluated during follow up. Pretreatment assessed...
Lee JH, Won Oh C-K. Impact of the ratio graft kidney volume to recipient body surface area on function after live donor transplantation. Clin Transplant 2011: 25: E647–E655. © 2011 John Wiley & Sons A/S. Abstract: Functioning nephron mass is a determinant transplant recipients. The and its weight have been reported be surrogates mass. To investigate impact ratios (BSA) within six months post-transplantation, we measured volume, using computed tomography with 3-dimensional reconstruction...
Dieulafoy's lesion is an uncommon cause of gastrointestinal bleeding. Hemorrhage occurs through mucosal erosion from abnormally dilated submucosal artery. Although usually located in the stomach, it may occur anywhere tract. We report here on a case jejunal presenting as mass and short segment stricture CT enteroclysis.
The rendezvous approach is a salvage technique after failure of endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC). In certain circumstances, percutaneous-endoscopic (PE-RV) preferred, and ultrasound-guided (EUS-RV) difficult to perform. We aimed evaluate PE-RV outcomes, describe the techniques, identify potential indications for over EUS-RV.Retrospective analysis was conducted prospectively designed ERC database between January 2005 December 2016 at tertiary referral center including cases where...
Background:We investigated an association between the levels of plasma microRNA (miRNA)-21, -26a, and -29a-3p treatment outcomes following transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods: A total 198 TACE-treated HCC were followed up for TACE refractoriness liver transplantation (LT)-free survival.Pretreatment miRNA-21, measured using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.Results: During mean follow-up 22.3 (range, 0.7-79) months, 118...
