Abstract

Background: The correct approach for early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is debatable, since multiple options are currently available. Percutaneous ablation (PA) is associated in some series to reduced morbidity compared to liver resection (LR); therefore, minimally invasive surgery may play a significant role in this setting. Methods: All consecutive patients treated by robotic liver resection (RLR) or PA between January 2014 and October 2019 for a newly diagnosed single HCC, less than 3 cm in size (very early/early stages according to the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC)) on chronic liver disease or liver cirrhosis, were enrolled in this retrospective study. The aim of this study was to compare short-and long-term outcomes to define the best approach in this specific cohort. Results: 60 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria: 24 RLR and 36 PA. The two populations were homogeneous in terms of baseline characteristics. There were no statistically significant differences regarding the incidence of postoperative morbidity (RLR 38% vs. PA 19%, p = 0.15). The cumulative incidence of recurrence (CIR) was significantly higher in patients who underwent PA, with the one, two, and three years of CIR being 42%, 69%, and 73% in the PA group and 17%, 27%, and 27% in the RLR group, respectively. Conclusions: RLR provides a significantly higher potential of cure and tumor-related free survival in cases of newly diagnosed single HCCs smaller than 3 cm. Therefore, it can be considered as a first-line approach for the treatment of patients with those characteristics in high-volume centers with extensive experience in the field of hepatobiliary surgery and minimally invasive approaches.

Abstract

Background & Aims: Portosystemic encephalopathy (PSE) is a major complication of trans-jugular intrahepatic porto-systemic shunt (TIPS) placement. Most devices are self-expandable polytetrafluoroethylene-covered stent grafts (PTFE-SGs) that are dilated to their nominal diameter (8 or 10 mm). We investigated whether PTFE-SGs dilated to a smaller caliber (under-dilated TIPS) reduce PSE yet maintain clinical and hemodynamic efficacy. We also studied whether under-dilated TIPS self-expand to nominal diameter over time. Methods: We performed a prospective, non-randomized study of 42 unselected patients with cirrhosis who received under-dilated TIPS (7 and 6 mm) and 53 patients who received PTFE-SGs of 8 mm or more (controls) at referral centers in Italy. After completion of this study, dilation to 6 mm became the standard and 47 patients were included in a validation study. All patients were followed for 6 months; Doppler ultrasonography was performed 2 weeks and 3 months after TIPS placement and every 6 months thereafter. Stability of PTFE-SG diameter was evaluated by computed tomography analysis of 226 patients with cirrhosis whose stent grafts increased to 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 mm. The primary outcomes were incidence of at least 1 episode of PSE grade 2 or higher during follow up, incidence of recurrent variceal hemorrhage or ascites, incidence of shunt dysfunction requiring TIPS recanalization, and reduction in porto-caval pressure gradient. Results: PSE developed in a significantly lower proportion of patients with under-dilated TIPS (27%) than controls (54%) during the first year after the procedure (P =.015), but the proportions of patients with recurrent variceal hemorrhage or ascites did not differ significantly between groups. No TIPS occlusions were observed. These results were confirmed in the validation cohort. In an analysis of self-expansion of stent grafts, during a mean follow-up period of 252 days after placement, none of the PTFE-SGs self-expanded to t

Abstract

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has been demonstrated to be feasible in older adult patients (age ≥70 years), yet the selection criteria remain suboptimal. Sarcopenia, highly prevalent in elderly population, may be significantly associated with post-TIPS outcome. This study aimed at evaluating the impact of baseline sarcopenia on post-TIPS survival in older adults with cirrhosis. A retrospective analysis of the prospective Italian TIPS-Registry was conducted to identify patients ≥70 years who received TIPS from June 2015 to March 2023. The availability of baseline abdominal CT scan was a mandatory inclusion criterion. Skeletal muscle index (SMI) was evaluated at the L3-L4 level. Sarcopenia was defined as SMI <50 cm2/m2 for men and <39 cm2/m2 for women. Probability of liver-related death was evaluated by competing risks analysis. A prediction model for liver-related mortality was created. One-hundred and fifteen patients were included: median age 74 years (IQR 3.1), 62% male, median dry-BMI 25.7 (IQR 4.7), 60% prevalence of sarcopenia. The main etiologies were viral (40%), alcohol-associated cirrhosis (23%), and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (20%). Refractory ascites (57%) was the main indications for TIPS. During a mean follow up of 20 months (IQR 20), 40 (34.8%) patients died for liver-related causes and 16 (13.9%) for extrahepatic causes. Liver-related mortality was significantly higher in patients with sarcopenia than in those without (6-months: 25.0% vs. 2.2%; 1-year: 43.0% vs. 4.8%, respectively; p value <0.001). A predictive model including INR, creatinine, and sarcopenia was developed to estimate liver-related mortality. The model achieved good predictive performances with AUCs of 0.826, 0.788, and 0.712 at 6-month, 1-year, and 2-years, respectively. Due to its significant impact on survival, the evaluation of sarcopenia may improve the selection of older adults candidate to TIPS. The new predictive model for post-TIPS liver-related mortality deserves external validation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

18. Predicting post-TIPS hepatic encephalopathy risk in patients with cirrhosis and refractory ascites: a proof-of-concept study using a 4D MRI perfusional model.

Abstract

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is a well-established treatment for refractory ascites (RA) in patients with cirrhosis. However, a major drawback is the development of post-procedural hepatic encephalopathy (HE), which results from the diversion of blood from the portal vein. According to the first-pass effect, this diversion reduces the liver's capacity to metabolize substances from the gut, leading to an accumulation of toxic compounds in the brain. Given that liver perfusion relies on arterial compensation (hepatic arterial buffer), it is plausible that effective compensation, which also depends on cardiac function, may reduce the risk of encephalopathy by detoxifying the blood during the second-pass metabolism. To evaluate by Dynamic Contrast Enhanced-Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) the changes in liver perfusion induced by TIPS in patients with RA and their relationship with the risk of HE. Twenty-nine consecutive patients underwent DCE-MRI, cardiac and hepatic hemodynamic evaluation before and after TIPS. MRI images were processed by a homemade software using the Dual Input Dual Compartment (DIDC) model, focusing on perfusion parameters. The DIDC model showed that total hepatic perfusion decreased by 24% after TIPS (248 ml/min/100ml vs 189 ml/min/100ml, p 0.095). As expected, a significant reduction in portal perfusion (decreased by 67%; 128.6 ml/min/100ml vs 42.4 ml/min/100ml, p 0.004) and an increase in hepatic arterial fraction post-TIPS (48% vs 77%, p 0.001) was observed. Post-TIPS residual total hepatic perfusion inversely correlated with one-year HE risk: patients with perfusion ≤ 130 ml/min/100ml had a HE risk of 67.6% vs 36.4% for those > 130 ml/min/100ml (HR: 2.1, p 0.039). Perfusion MRI is able to elucidate the impact of TIPS on liver perfusion, quantifying the extent of hepatic perfusion and its correlation with the development of post-TIPS HE. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

In the present work, the correlated sampling technique in Monte Carlo calculations related to diamond dosimetry and graphite calorimetry will be described. The egs_chamber and DOSRZnrc user-codes included in the EGSnrc package are used. Egs_chamber is already provided with routines enabling the use of correlated sampling while an in-house implementation of this technique was made in the original version of DOSRZnrc. Both codes have been used for calculating perturbation factors needed for absorbed dose measurements in radiotherapy dosimetry. Correlated sampling turned out to be a reliable method, allowing to determine, in reasonable times, accurate correction factors, even in unfavourable conditions as when absorbed dose is scored in very small volumes.

Abstract

A multicentre prospective survey on the use of artificial nutrition (AN) and its complications has been carried out on 1657 hospitalised patients including 7.8% in surgical departments, 7.1% in medical departments and 59.9% in intensive care units. Gastrointestinal diseases and cancer were the most frequent pathologies among patients requiring AN. Parenteral nutrition (PN) alone was employed in 1103 (66.5%) patients. In 267 (16.1%) PN was associated with enteral nutrition (EN). 287 (17.3%) patients were fed by the enteral route alone. The average daily energy intake was 35 kcal/kg for central PN, 26 kcal/kg for peripheral PN and 33 kcal/kg for EN. The mean daily nitrogen intake was 0.19 g/kg for central PN, 0.17 g/kg for peripheral PN and 0.20 g/kg for EN. In 10% of patients PN was electrolyte free and in only 50% all the main electrolytes were added. Trace elements were added in 48% of formulations, mainly as multiple combination. Insulin was added in 61% of PN patients, while albumin was given with PN in 20% of patients. Adverse reactions were observed in 10.9% of PN patients and in 11.5% of EN patients. The most frequent complications occurring in parenterally fed patients were infections of the central venous catheter and metabolic alterations (severe electrolyte abnormalities, liver or renal dysfunction, hypo or persistent hyperglycemia). In enterally fed patients the frequent complications were abdominal distension, cramps and diarrhoea. Adverse reactions were responsible for discontinuation of AN in 2.2% of parenterally supported patients and in 5.7% of enterally fed patients.

Abstract

The present paper reports the results of an investigation carried out by the PAS-FIBI-DOSIBIO laboratory (ENEA, Casaccia, Roma) about the thermal features of the ovens used for annealing treatments of TL dosemeters. A total number of 45 commercial ovens and muffle furnaces were studied. belonging to 24 Italian Health Physics laboratories. The investigation has shown that the majority of the ovens do not possess a degree of accuracy, stability, uniformity and reproducibility suitable for their use in the field of thermoluminescence dosimetry. Practical suggestions are also given in order to reduce the effects of some of the negative characteristics found in most ovens.

45. Mesophilous woods with Fagus sylvaticaL. of northern Latium (Tyrrhenian Central Italy): synecology and syntaxonomy

Author

SCOPPOLA, A. and CAPORALI, C.

Abstract

ABSTRACTThe results of a synecological and syntaxonomic study of mesophilous forest coenoses, mixed or with a prevalence of Beech, in northern Latium (Roman Tuscia), are reported. The main parameters determining the distribution pattern and floristic composition of these coenoses were altitude, exposure, acclivity, asperity and ecotope. The presence of Aquifolio-Fagetum (Doronico-Fagion)at la Tolfa and in the Sabatini Mts. is confirmed, together with the autonomy of Teucrio siculi-Quercion cerridisand Lathyro-Quercion cerridisin the Cimini-Vicani and Sabatini Mts. and on the sandstone substrates of Mt. Rufeno, respectively. Variants of Polysticho-Fagetum aceretosum pseudoplatani (Galio odorati-Fagenion)with Polystichum setiferumand with Veronica hederifoliawere recognized in certain parts of the Cimini and Vicani Mts. The presence of Carpinion betuli, especially with Carpino-Coryletum avellanaeand the new subassociation phyllitiaetosum scolopendriiof the latter, is recognized in gullies and ravines eroded in tufo of the Vulsino and Cimino complexes.

Twenty-four patients receiving combination chemotherapy including cisplatin at a dosage of 50 mg/m2 were entered on this antiemetic randomized open cross-over study. High-dose dexamethasone (DXM) (regimen A) was compared with the combination of DXM and high doses of metoclopramide (MCP) (regimen B). Five patients (20%) treated with regimen A and 13 (54%) treated with regimen B suffered neither nausea nor vomiting (P less than 0.05). Regimen B was found to be significantly more effective than regimen A for all the parameters of evaluation considered. No severe side-effects were observed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
