[PMID: 39007995 DOI: 10.1007/s13304-024-01934-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
Oncological hepatic surgery carries the possibility to perform vascular reconstructions for advanced tumours with vessel invasion since surgery often represents the only potentially curative approach for these tumours. An extended review was conducted in an attempt to understand and clarify the latest trends in hepatectomies with vascular resections. We searched bibliographic databases including PubMed, Scopus, references from bibliographies and Cochrane Library. Information and outcomes from worldwide clinical trials were collected from qualified institutions performing hepatectomies with vascular resection and reconstruction. Careful patient selection and thorough preoperative imaging remain crucial for correct and safe surgical planning. A literature analysis shows that vascular resections carry different indications in different diseases. Despite significant advances made in imaging techniques and technical skills, reports of hepatectomies with vascular resections are still associated with high postoperative morbidity and mortality. The trend of complex liver resection with vascular resection is constantly on the increase, but more profound knowledge as well as further trials are required. Recent technological developments in multiple fields could surely provide novel approaches and enhance a new era of digital imaging and intelligent hepatic surgery.

[PMID: 38582841 PMCID: PMC10998336 DOI: 10.1186/s12935-024-03241-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to determine the role and regulatory mechanism of miR-380 in cholangiocarcinoma. METHODS The TargetScan database and a dual-luciferase reporter assay system were used to determine if LIS1 was a target gene of miR-380. The Cell Counting Kit 8 assay, flow cytometry, and Transwell assay were used to detect the effects of miR-380 and LIS1 on the proliferation, S-phase ratio, and invasiveness of HCCC-9810/HuCCT1/QBC939 cells. Western blotting was used to determine the effect of miR-380 on MMP-2/p-AKT. Immunohistochemistry detected the regulatory effect of miR-380 on the expression of MMP-2/p-AKT/LIS1. RESULTS Expression of miR-380 in cholangiocarcinoma was decreased but expression of LIS1 was increased. LIS1 was confirmed to be a target gene of miR-380. Transfection with miR-380 mimics inhibited the proliferation, S-phase arrest, and invasion of HCCC-9810/HuCCT1/QBC939 cells, and LIS1 reversed these inhibitory effects. miR-380 inhibitor promoted proliferation, S-phase ratio, and invasiveness of HCCC-9810/HuCCT1/QBC939 cells. si-LIS1 salvaged the promotive effect of miR-380 inhibitor. Overexpression of miR-380 inhibited expression of MMP-2/p-AKT/LIS1, but miR-380 inhibitor promoted their expression. CONCLUSION An imbalance of miR-380 expression is closely related to cholangiocarcinoma, and overexpression of miR-380 inhibits the expression of MMP-2/p-AKT by directly targeting LIS1.

Nomogram based on preoperative clinical and MRI features to estimate the microvascular invasion status and the prognosis of solitary intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma. Abdom Radiol (NY) 2024; 49:425-436. [PMID: 37889266 DOI: 10.1007/s00261-023-04079-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2023] [Revised: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a nomogram based on preoperative clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features for the microvascular invasion (MVI) status in solitary intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma (sIMCC) and to evaluate whether it could predict recurrence-free survival (RFS). METHODS We included 115 cases who experienced MRI examinations for sIMCC with R0 resection. The preoperative clinical and MRI features were extracted. Independent predictors related to MVI+ were evaluated by stepwise multivariate logistic regression, and a nomogram was constructed. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the predictive ability. All patients were classified into high- and low-risk groups of MVI. Then, the correlations of the nomogram with RFS in patents with sIMCC were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS The occurrence rate of MVI+ was 38.3% (44/115). The preoperative independent predictors of MVI+ were carbohydrate antigen 19-9 > 37 U/ml, tumor size > 5 cm, and an ill-defined tumor boundary. Integrating these predictors, the nomogram exerted a favorable diagnostic performance with areas under the ROC curve of 0.767 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.654-0.881) in the development cohort, and 0.760 (95% CI 0.591-0.929) in the validation cohort. In the RFS analysis, significant differences were observed between the high- and low-risk MVI groups (6-month RFS rates: 64.5% vs. 78.8% and 46.7% vs. 82.4% in the development and validation cohorts, respectively) (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS A nomogram based on clinical and MRI features is a potential biomarker of MVI and may be a potent method to classify the risk of recurrence in patients with sIMCC.

Nutr Cancer 2022:1-13. [PMID: 35920450 DOI: 10.1080/01635581.2022.2104876] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Revised: 05/15/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Recent studies have explored the prognostic role of the C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR) in patients with bile duct cancer (BTC), but the results have been inconsistent. This study aimed to provide insight into the prognostic significance of the CAR in BTC prior to treatment using a meta-analysis. Summarized hazard ratios (HRs) or odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for prognosis and clinicopathological features using fixed or random effects models. Fourteen studies with a total of 1,543 subjects were included in this meta-analysis. Elevated CAR was significantly associated with poor overall survival (HR = 2.17, 95% CI = 1.81-2.60, P < 0.001) and decreased disease-free survival or recurrence-free survival (HR = 2.53, 95% CI = 1.98-3.25, P < 0.001) in BTC. In addition, high CAR was significantly associated with the presence of lymph node metastasis (OR = 1.54, 95% CI = 1.12- 2.13, P = 0.008), bile duct invasion (OR = 2.64, 95% CI = 1.54-4.54, P < 0.001), and tumor stages III-IV (OR = 3.11, 95% CI = 1.05-9.20, P = 0.040). However, there was no significant association between CAR and sex, microvascular invasion, or resection. An elevated CAR was significantly related to worse long-term and short-term survival and advanced clinicopathological features of BTC. CAR could serve as a valuable, noninvasive prognostic marker in patients with BTC.

Clin Res Cardiol 2021; 111:284-293. [PMID: 34216251 DOI: 10.1007/s00392-021-01899-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Accepted: 06/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of hypertension control on the risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in patients newly diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AF) is unknown. This study aimed to investigate the impact of hypertension control on incident ESRD among AF patients. METHODS From the National Health Information database of Korea, we identified ESRD-free patients who were newly diagnosed with AF during 2010 and 2016. The patients were divided into four groups (NN, NH, HN, and HH) according to combinations of dichotomous blood pressure status [normotensive (N) or hypertensive (H)] of two consecutive check-ups. The primary outcome was incident ESRD. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis evaluated ESRD risks across the groups. The association between ESRD risks and changes in blood pressures was also evaluated. RESULTS During the mean follow-up duration of 3.2 ± 1.9 years, 130,259 ESRD-free patients with AF (mean age 63.1 ± 12.1 years, male 61.2%) were evaluated. Compared to NN, other patient groups showed higher ESRD risks [hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) = 1.43 (1.08-1.89), 1.39 (1.08-1.79), and 2.03 (1.55-2.65) for NH, HN, and HH, respectively]. There was a significant trend of decreasing risks of ESRD in patients with greater reductions in systolic blood pressure after AF diagnosis (p for-trend < 0.001). The association between hypertension control and the ESRD risk was more accentuated in patients with chronic kidney disease. CONCLUSION Uncontrolled hypertension was associated with an increased risk of incident ESRD in patients with newly diagnosed AF. This study emphasizes the importance of blood pressure control once patients are diagnosed with AF to prevent ESRD.
