Transarterial radioembolization (TARE) is one of the therapeutic options for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to investigate the predictors and prognostic values of achieving curative treatments after TARE. Overall, 143 patients with intrahepatic HCC treated with TARE between 2011 and 2017 were recruited from two Korean tertiary institutes. Twenty-seven patients received curative treatments after TARE. Younger age than 65 years and AFP of ≤200 ng/mL independently predicted the increased probability of achieving curative treatment after TARE, and the curative treatment after TARE provided a survival benefit in patients with intrahepatic HCC.

Background And Aim: Zhilong Huoxue Tongyu Capsule (ZL capsule) has been demonstrated to be an effective and widely-used traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula for the treatment of various diseases, especially for atherosclerosis (AS) related cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Reversal of endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) plays a crucial role in the cure of AS. But the curative impact of ZL capsule on EndMT remains obscure during the development of AS.

Purpose: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is currently one of the most curative treatments for early esophageal cancer. We conducted a retrospective case analysis to identify the characteristics of early esophageal cancer that indicate esophageal stenosis prevention measures. Our aim was to provide a reference for clinical decision-making.

Aims: Supplementing Lactobacillus alongside antibiotic treatment was a curative strategy to modulate gut microbiota and alleviate antibiotic-associated dysbiosis. But the lactobacilli that are used as probiotics are sensitive or have a low level of resistance to antibiotics, so they usually cannot achieve their beneficial effect, since they are killed by the applied antibiotics. This work aimed to develop the highly resistant Lactiplantibacillus plantarum subsp.

Surgical resection and lymphadenectomy are the mainstay of curative treatment for oesophagogastric cancer. In this study we evaluate the results of intravascular methylene blue injection into oesophagectomy and gastrectomy specimens as a tool to increase lymph node detection. A prospective and descriptive study was run on 24 patients (11 oesophagus, 13 stomach cases).
