Synopsis: 
The study aimed to get more knowledge about the relationship between age, dietary habit, behavioural habit, living habit and hepatocellular carcinoma (HHC) and clarify the risk of causing HHC by alcohol consumption.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To describe the epidemiological characteristics of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), to gain more knowledge about the relationship among age, dietary habits, behavioural habits, living habits and HCC, and to clarify the risk of causing HCC by alcohol consumption.

Value of Serum Galectin 3 in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Meta-Analysis

Issue: 
Vol 71, Issue 1: 2024
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2016.532
Pages: 
14-8
Synopsis: 
Serum Galectin 3 is a promising diagnostic indicator for some carcinomas. This study estimated the serum Gal-3 in patients with hepatocelluar carcinoma and showed that the expression of serum Galectin 3 tended to be a bigger biomarker for diagnosis of Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the connection of Galectin 3 with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk.

Methods: Publications were searched using PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Chinese databases (including CNKI and WanFang) up to October 2015.

Use of Percutaneous Sonographically Guided Microwave Ablation Therapy to Treat Inoperable Malignant Liver Tumours

Issue: 
Vol 64, Issue 2: March (2015)
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2014.132
Pages: 
76–80
Synopsis: 
Microwave ablation (MWA) is a technique used to destroy tumours and soft tissues which are considered inoperable. It is also used to treat those patients who are ineligible for surgery. There is considerable efficacy of MWA guided by ultrasound in treating patients with inoperable tumours.

ABSTRACT

Aims:  Microwave ablation (MWA) is a technique which is used to destroy tumours and soft tissues by using microwave energy to create coagulation and localized tissue necrosis. It is used to treat the tumours which are considered to be inoperable and used to treat those patients who are ineligible for surgery due to some factors. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the use of MWA in the treatment of liver cancer.

Autophagy Facilitates the Sorafenib Resistance of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells

Issue: 
Vol 62, Issue 8: Nov (2013)
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2013.040
Synopsis: 
Although the function of autophagy in the sorafenib resistance is still uncertain and more studies are needed to explore the possible resistant mechanism, it offers a new potential strategy for overcoming resistance to sorafenib.
