Article Synopsis
- - Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can lead to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and this study explores the methylation status of tumor suppressor genes RASSF1 and CDKN2AIP in patients with HBV-induced liver cirrhosis.
- - The study involved 47 patients divided into two groups: those with both HCC and liver cirrhosis (22 patients), and those with only liver cirrhosis (25 patients).
- - Results indicated that methylation levels of the CDKN2AIP gene were significantly lower in patients with HCC, suggesting that cfDNA methylation of these genes could be valuable for diagnosing HCC in HBV cirrhosis patients
Background And Aims: Gastric bypass surgery effectively treats obesity; however, its association with belching, which occurs in other bariatric surgeries, remains unclear. Hence, we aimed to evaluate belching occurrence after gastric bypass surgery.
Methods: We enrolled 12 healthy volunteers and 17 patients (12 and 5 underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and mini-gastric bypass surgeries 24 (18-54) months prior, respectively).
