The Impact of Liquid Biopsy in Advanced Ovarian Cancer Care.

Introduction: Ovarian cancer is the third most common gynaecological cancer and has a very high mortality rate. The cornerstone of treatment is complete debulking surgery plus chemotherapy. Even with treatment, 80% of patients have a recurrence.

Emergency Liver Retransplantation With Marginal Donors.

Background: The goal of the present study is to determine if using marginal donors negatively impacts the outcomes of emergency liver retransplantation.

Methods: A retrospective case-control study was performed, including all emergency liver retransplantations done in our center between 1990 and 2021. Recipients from the control group received the second grafts from "ideal donors", and patients from the case group received them from marginal donors.

Robust Molecular Anodes for Electrocatalytic Water Oxidation Based on Electropolymerized Molecular Cu Complexes.

A multistep synthesis of a new tetra-amidate macrocyclic ligand functionalized with alkyl-thiophene moieties, 15,15-bis(6-(thiophen-3-yl)hexyl)-8,13-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[b,h][1,4,7,10]tetraazacyclotridecine-6,7,14,16(15H,17H)-tetraone, H L, is reported. The reaction of the deprotonated ligand, L , and Cu(II) generates the complex [LCu] , that can be further oxidized to Cu(III) with iodine to generate [LCu] . The H L ligand and their Cu complexes have been thoroughly characterized by analytic and spectroscopic techniques (including X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy, XAS).

Liver Resuscitation With Hypothermic Oxygenated Perfusion After Donation in Asystolic Type Iii With Regional Perfusion in Normothermia: A Case Report About First Experience in Spain.

Background: Extended criteria donor livers are increasingly being accepted for transplant in an attempt to bridge the gap between the number of patients on the waiting list and the number of available donor livers. Our objective was to describe our first case of hepatic resuscitation by means of an ex situ perfusion machine in hypothermia with oxygen insufflation of a liver graft extracted from a donor in type 3 asystole after regional perfusion in normothermia.

Methods: A 53-year-old woman with disabling polycystic liver disease was included on the liver transplant waiting list.
