INTRODUCTION: Several scoring systems predict mortality in alcohol-associated hepatitis (AH), including the Maddrey discriminant function (mDF) and model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score developed United States, Glasgow alcoholic Kingdom, age, bilirubin, international normalized ratio, creatinine Spain. To date, no global studies have examined utility of these scores, nor has MELD-sodium been evaluated outcome prediction AH. In this study, we assessed accuracy different scores to...

To investigate the effectiveness and economy of pelvic computed tomography (CT), bone scan lymphadenectomy as staging modalities in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy. The use prostate specific antigen (PSA) Gleason's score adjuncts to predict extracapsular disease were also evaluated their economic implications examined.Between January 1990 June 1993, 861 men newly diagnosed with cancer, whom 409 underwent surgery. All CT scans PSA analysis. Patients surgery had pre-operative scoring...
We assessed the degree of prostate downsizing using androgen deprivation, and determined its relation to clinical pathological variables.From June 1994 January 2000, 107 patients with cancer received deprivation before interstitial brachytherapy at our hospital. All charts were reviewed for clinical, treatment related variables. Prostate volume was measured transrectal ultrasound. variables analyzed regard downsizing.Mean percent reduction 33% after a 3.7-month average duration deprivation....
✓ Sixty laminectomies were performed in dogs to investigate the prevention of laminectomy membrane and its side effects. These operations distributed six groups 10, one was a control group, others bone defect protected with different materials (Oxicel, Silastic, Dacron, methyl methacrylate, Kiel graft). After survival 2 months, suboccipital myelography performed, immediately after which animals sacrificed operated spinal slice obtained. The radiographic densities tissues each calculated...
Clinical and endoscopic features of cirrhotic patients with nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGIB) have been rarely reported clinical outcomes predictors mortality not evaluated.1) To describe the features; 2) define outcomes; 3) identify in-hospital NVUGIB.One hundred sixty NVUGIB were prospectively studied. features, findings, rate Predictors death identified by means univariate multiple logistic regression analysis.The mean age was 56.5 ± 14.4, male gender prevailed. Alcohol...
Aims. To define the prevalence and clinical characteristics of glucose metabolism disorders (GMD) in patients with compensated liver cirrhosis (LC). Material methods. Fasting plasma (FPG) levels were measured to 130 clinically stable LC. Oral tolerance tests (OGTT) fasting insulin determinations performed normal FPG. Insulin resistance (IR) was calculated HOMA2-IR index. GMD classified according FPG OGTT results chronologic relation between diagnosis diabetes mellitus (DM) LC as follows:...
It has been suggested that DM may reduce survival of patients with liver cirrhosis (LC). Nevertheless only few prospective studies assessing the impact on mortality cirrhotic have published, none in compensated LC.(i) to study and (ii) identify predictors death.Patients LC without were studied. Survival was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier Method. Univariate multivariate analysis performed determine independent mortality.110 included: 60 50 DM. Diabetic had significantly higher frequency cryptogenic...
Abstract Background Persistent organ failure (POF) is the strongest determinant of mortality in acute pancreatitis (AP). There a paucity data regarding impact different POF attributes on and role characteristics systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) risk developing POF. Objective We aimed to assess association dynamic features with SIRS Methods studied 1544 AP subjects prospectively enrolled at 22 international centers (APPRENTICE consortium). First, we estimated onset, duration,...
