Preventing and Treating Delayed Gastric Emptying (DGE) after Pancreatic Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.
Ann Surg
January 2025
Amsterdam UMC, location University of Amsterdam, Department of Surgery, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Objective: To identify strategies to prevent and treat delayed gastric emptying (DGE) after pancreatic surgery.
Background: Among all complications of pancreatic surgery, DGE has the largest impact on prolonged hospital stay. Several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have addressed DGE after pancreatic surgery, either as primary or as secondary outcome.
The Clinical Course of Portopulmonary Hypertension and Outcomes With Endothelin Receptor Antagonist Treatment: Observational Study of Data From the US Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network.

Actelion Pharmaceuticals Ltd, Janssen Pharmaceutical Company of Johnson and Johnson, Global Epidemiology, Allschwil, Switzerland.
Background: Portopulmonary hypertension (PoPH) occurs in patients with advanced liver disease and can be a contraindication to liver transplant (LT). Improvement of hemodynamic parameters with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) therapies (including endothelin receptor antagonists [ERAs]) may help some patients to become eligible for LT.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective secondary data analysis to describe the clinical course and management of PoPH in patients on a US registry LT waitlist and outcomes in patients receiving an ERA.
Elevated Plasma CXCL8 Concentrations in Significant Fibrosis but Not in Subclinical Rejection After Adult Liver Transplantation.
Transplant Direct
March 2024
Department of Gastroenterology, Hepatology, Infectious Diseases and Endocrinology, Hannover Medical School, Hannover, Germany.
Background: The noninvasive detection of subclinical graft injury including subclinical T cell-mediated rejection (subTCMR) is one of the unresolved challenges after liver transplantation. Recently, serum C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8) was proposed as a highly accurate marker of subTCMR in pediatric liver transplant recipients. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy of the quantification of this chemokine for predicting subTCMR in adult liver transplant recipients, as well as its capacity to classify patients who could benefit from immunosuppression reduction.

Second-line treatment patterns and outcomes in advanced HCC after progression on atezolizumab/bevacizumab.
JHEP Rep
February 2025
Division of Hematology/Oncology, Department of Medicine, Tisch Cancer Institute, Mount Sinai Hospital, New York, NY, USA.
Background & Aims: Atezolizumab/bevacizumab (A/B) is now a standard first-line treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but the optimal second-line regimen is not known. We evaluated real-world treatment patterns and outcomes to investigate factors associated with post-progression survival (PPS).
Methods: In this multicenter, international, retrospective study, we examined clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with advanced HCC who progressed on first-line A/B.
