Article Synopsis
- Scientists are studying how mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can help treat severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) by making blood vessels healthier.
- They tested MSCs taken from human umbilical cords that were treated with a chemical called Angiotensin-II to see if they could reduce damage in rats with SAP.
- The results showed that these treated MSCs helped heal the pancreas, improved blood vessel formation, and protected certain cells from dying, showing promise for better treatments for SAP!
Prognostic value of lymph nodes count on survival of patients with distal cholangiocarcinomas.
World J Gastroenterol
March 2018
Aim: To evaluate the prognostic value of the number of retrieved lymph nodes (LNs) and other prognostic factors for patients with distal cholangiocarcinomas, and to determine the optimal retrieved LNs cut-off number.
Methods: The Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database was used to screen for patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma. Patients with different numbers of retrieved LNs were divided into three groups by the X-tile program.
Budd‑Chiari syndrome (BCS) is an uncommon disease characterized by the occlusion or obstruction of hepatic venous outflow. The mechanism of BCS is still unclear and there are no accurate and effective diagnostic or therapeutic tools. In the present study, blood samples from BCS patients and healthy controls were used for RNA‑sequencing.
