Radiofrequency ablation versus microwave ablation for colorectal liver metastases: long-term results of a retrospective cohort surgical experience
Ali Gunduz Sarioglu, Chase J. Wehrle, Ege Akgun, Arturan Ibrahimli, James F. Bena, Eren Berber
Microwave ablation outperformed radiofrequency ablation in control of colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM), showing improved local tumor control over a very long-term follow-up of a cohort receiving surgical ablation.
A novel nomogram for predicting the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma patients following immune checkpoint inhibitors treatment beyond progression: a single center study based on Chinese population
Chao Chen, Xiaoyuan Chu, Hong Liu, Mingzhen Zhou, Zhan Shi, Anfeng Si, Ying Zhao, Xiufeng Liu, Jie Shen, Baorui Liu
This study introduces a nomogram for predicting the prognosis of Chinese patients with advanced liver cancer treated with ICIs beyond progression. Validated by ROC and DCA, it accurately categorizes patients into risk groups, offering a valuable tool for personalized treatment strategies, though it requires further multicenter validation.
Long- and short-term outcomes for resectable gallbladder carcinoma patients treated with curative-intent laparoscopic versus open resection: a multicenter propensity score-matched comparative study
Zhi-Peng Liu, Xing-Xing Su, Long-Fei Chen, Xue-Lei Li, Yi-Shi Yang, Zhi-Long You, Xiao-Lin Zhao, Fan Huang, Chao Yu, Zhao-Ping Wu, Wei Chen, Jin-Xue Zhou, Wei Guo, Da-Long Yin, Ping Yue, Rui Ding, Yi Zhu, Wei Chen, Yan Jiang, Jie Bai, Jing-Jing Wang, Yan-Qi Zhang, Dong Zhang, Hai-Su Dai, Wan Yee Lau, Zhi-Yu Chen; The Biliary Surgery Branch of Elite Group of Chinese Digestive Surgery (EGCDS)
Some short-term and intraoperative outcomes of GBC patients after LR were better, but the long-term outcomes between LR and OR were not significantly different. The use of AC after curative-intent resection of GBC helped achieve better long-term survival outcomes.
Comparative associations of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease with risk of incident chronic kidney disease: a cohort study
Ji Hye Heo, Mi Yeon Lee, Seong Hwan Kim, Ming-Hua Zheng, Christopher D. Byrne, Giovanni Targher, Ki-Chul Sung
The recently proposed MASLD definition is more effective in identifying individuals at high risk of developing CKD or abnormal albuminuria compared to the traditional NAFLD definition.
Clinical significance of surgical resection for hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein invasion: a nationwide cohort study
Hye-Sung Jo, Pyoung-Jae Park, Young-Dong Yu, Yoo Jin Choi, Se Hyeon Yu, Dong-Sik Kim; Korean Liver Cancer Association
Although current guidelines recommend only systemic treatment for HCC with PVI patients, this study demonstrates surgical resection could be worth considering to achieve favorable overall and cancer-specific survival in patients who have preserved liver function and performance status.

The Dallas Donation after Circulatory Death Transplantation Summit: expanding donation after circulatory death procedures through process improvement, broader utilization, and innovation
Michele Finotti, Anji Wall, Anthony D’Alessandro, Gary Schwartz, Chris Sonnenday, David Goldberg, Ashish Shah, Peter Friend, Jeff P. Orlowski, Greg McKenna, Steve Newton, Brad Adams, William C. Chapman, Amit Mathur, Marwan Abouljoud, Tim Pruett, Amelia Hessheimer, James F. Trotter, Sumeet K. Asrani, Giuliano Testa
DCD significantly contributes to the organ pool, increasing grafts for transplantation. However, its full potential remains far from being reached. Identifying and overcoming obstacles is crucial for expanding DCD utilization, ensuring its positive impact on organ transplantation continues to grow in the near future.
