To investigate the predictive factors for complete response (CR) and recurrence after CR in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated transarterial chemoembolization (TACE).Among 691 newly diagnosed HCC patients, 287 were TACE as a first therapy. We analyzed CR, overall survival (OS).Eighty-one (28.2%) achieved TACE, was detected 35 (43.2%). In multivariate analyses, tumor size (≤5 cm) single nodularity hazard ratios (HRs) of 0.35 (p=0.002) 0.41 (p<0.001), respectively. Elevated...
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is performed for single hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that are not eligible surgery or ablation therapy. We investigated the clinical outcomes of patients with a HCC ≤ 5 cm treated TACE.This study analyzed 175 consecutive who underwent TACE as an initial treatment cm. Predictive factors complete response (CR), recurrence after CR, and overall survival (OS) were evaluated.Total 119 (68%) achieved CR TACE. Tumor size < 3 hepatitis B virus infection...
Multidisciplinary discussions (MDDs) have emphasized improve medical services and outcomes. We used a multidisciplinary approach to explore whether patient emotional satisfaction confidence affected treatment outcomes in rheumatic disease (RD)-related interstitial lung (ILD). From December 2015 April 2017, we evaluated 23 patients with RD ILD 21 idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Patients were managed MDDs. IPF received standardized care by the same pulmonologist. All completed brief...
Belching disorder (BD) is clinically distinct from gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) with belching. Supragastric belching (SGB) closely associated episodes. This study investigates belch characteristics in association reflux, compared between patients BD and those who had GERD belching.Impedance pH monitoring data 10 exhibited were retrospectively analyzed. Belches considered "isolated" or "reflux-related" acidic/non-acidic. Belch GERD.Symptomatic belches more frequent than (median,...
Background/Aims When determining the subsequent management after endoscopic resection of early colon cancer (ECC), various factors including margin status should be considered. This study assessed and outcomes ECCs according to status. Methods We examined data 223 treated by mucosal (EMR) from 215 patients during 2004 2014, all were followed-up at least for 2 years. Results According histological analyses, statuses lesions EMR as follows: 138 cases (61.9%) negative, 65 (29.1%) positive...
