One-carbon metabolism (OCM) is a series of connected pathways involving the methionine-folate cycles, transsulfuration, polyamine synthesis, nucleotide synthesis, free-radical scavenging, and energy metabolism. These pathways functionally depend upon amino acids (methionine, glycine, and serine), vitamins (folate, B, B, and B), and minerals (sulfur, cobalt, and zinc).

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined the outcomes of three types of challenging liver resections in a minimally invasive setting: isolated caudate resection (ICR), en-bloc caudate resection with hepatic lobectomy (ECR), and posterosuperior segment resection (PSR).
  • Out of 500 patients followed, ICR had the shortest operation time, lowest estimated blood loss (EBL), and shortest length of stay (LOS), while ECR had longer durations and complications compared to both ICR and PSR.
  • The findings indicate that robotic resection for difficult liver tumors is safe and effective, suggesting that minimally invasive techniques can be utilized successfully with the right level of expertise.

Introduction: The increase in the number of patients with hemoglobinopathies in Europe in recent decades highlights the need for more detailed epidemiological information in Spain. To fulfil this need, the Spanish Society of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology (SEHOP) sponsored the creation of a national registry of hemoglobinopathies known as REHem-AR (Spanish Registry of Hemoglobinopathies and Rare Anemias). Data from the transfusion-dependent (TDT) and non-transfusion-dependent (NTDT) β-thalassemia cohorts are described and analyzed.
