Endocuff-Assisted Colonoscopy Demonstrates High Ileal Intubation and Adenoma Detection Rates in Trainees

1. Abstract 1.1. Introduction: The Endocuff (EC) significantly improves the Adenoma Detection Rate (ADR). Whereas cecal intubation and cost-effectiveness using the EC have been studied repeatedly, evidence regarding the Ileum Intubation Rate (IIR) remains scarce. This study investigates the IRR and ADR in EC-assisted colonoscopy compared with standard colonoscopy in patients undergoing screening and/or surveillance …

Primary Murine Hepatocyte Isolation and Culture with GMP and Research-Grade Enzyme Blends

1. Abstract Hepatocyte transplantation for acute liver failure and metabolic liver disorders represent a potential alternative to traditional orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Additionally, cultured primary hepatocytes are an important tool for in vitro pharmacological studies. Advances in clinical hepatocyte transplantation and drug studies depend on the development of standardized isolation and culturing protocols as well …

Multiple Hepatic and Osseous Focal Lesions without Splenomegaly and/or Lymph Nodes Enlargement

1. Abstract 1.1. Background: Hepatic involvement is a common extranodal manifestation of common and some rare hematologic malignancies. Although the imaging features of more common hepatic diseases such as hepatocellular carcinoma, metastases, and infection may overlap with those of hepatic hematologic malignancies, combining the imaging features with clinical manifestations and laboratory findings can facilitate correct …

Peptic Ulcer Associated with Polycythemia Rubra Vera: A Case Report

1. Abstract Polycythemia Vera (PV) is a blood disorders known as myeloproliferative disease. Gastric and duodenal ulcer is a frequent disease among population but rarely is a complication of myeloproliferative disorders. Its main etiologies are inbalance of gastric acid secretion and mucosa protection. The complication of PV by an ulcer is a possible but not …

Cancer from an Unknown Primary Source

1. Abstract The diagnosis of Cancer of Unknown Primary is difficult even in the present era of modern medicine. The incidence is closed to 2-5% of all epithelial cancers. There is no concrete explanation behind the development of these cancers, however, recent studies suggested the role of chromosomal abnormalities and neoangiogenesis in the development. Overall, …
