Gastroesophageal varices (GVs) present in 50% of patients with liver cirrhosis.
GVs bleed at a rate of 5–15%, and the 6-week mortality after hemorrhage is 20%.
GVs are treated with a tissue adhesive, cyanoacrylate, where repeated sessions
are performed 2–4 weeks until obliteration, and eradication is achieved with 2–4
injections using 1–2 ml/ session. Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) was found

Cardiovascular changes in dipper and nondipper hypertension in perimenopausal women: time-dependent effects of antihypertensivesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 24 - Trang 37-42 - 2014
Wael Ragheb Refaie, Ehsan Refaie, Nagy Abd El Hady, Salah Tantawy, Ahmad Elewa
The lack of a decrease in nocturnal blood pressure to up to 10% of the daytime
measure is termed as nondipper (ND) hypertension. It is a cardiovascular (CV)
risk factor with increased CV morbidity and accelerated target organ damage
especially in women. The beneficial effect of restoring the ND state by
administering antihypertensives (chronotherapy) at bedtime rather than on
awakening is still de... hiện toàn bộ
Serum Golgi protein-73 in combination with α-fetoprotein for diagnosing hepatocellular carcinoma in Egyptian patientsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 29 - Trang 40-46 - 2017

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third cause of cancer-related mortality.
α-fetoprotein (AFP) is not a highly sensitive marker for predicting HCC despite
its high specificity. Serum Golgi protein-73 (sGP73) seems to be promising new
marker. This study aimed at evaluating the role of sGP73 alone and in
combination with AFP for diagnosing HCC. This study was conducted on 90 Egyptian
patients wh... hiện toàn bộ

Different novel biomarkers involved in diagnosing hypothyroidismSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 35 - Trang 1-9 - 2023
Hansi Sharma, Jagdish Kakadiya
Hypothyroidism is a clinical condition caused by the deficiency of thyroid
hormones that are T4 and T3 due to an increase in serum TSH level. The upper and
lower limit of T4 and TSH helps to identify the disease. The metabolic pathways
are important to know for diagnostic tests. By conducting different biochemical
tests, a proper diagnosis can be performed when hypothyroidism is suspected

25-Hydroxy-vitamin D3 level is a predictor to insulin resistance in patients with hepatitis C virus-induced liver cirrhosisSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 25 Số 2 - Trang 63-69 - 2013
Zakaria, Abir, Ramadan, Nagwa, El-Sayed, Naglaa, Zahra, Amr
There is an established relationship between liver disease and hepatogenous
diabetes mellitus, and a growing evidence for the role of vitamin D deficiency
in the pathogenesis of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, data on the
impact of vitamin D serum level on insulin resistance among liver cirrhosis
patients are lacking. The primary objective of the current study was to
investigate the ... hiện toàn bộ
