1. Introduction Cirrhosis is a fibrosing disease that constitutes the terminal stage of chronic liver pathologies. It is a major public health problem. Indeed, the incidence in the world varies from 1.3 to 5.9. In France, the annual incidence is 150 to 200 cases per million inhabitants [1]. http://dx.doi.org/10.47829/JJGH.2021.61702

1. Abstract 1.1. Introduction: Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) is a major cause of chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. There are three possible routes of transmission of HBV from infected mothers to infants: transplacental transmission of HBV in uteri, natal transmission during delivery or postnatal transmission during care of infant or through breast milk.

1. Abstract 1.1. Aims: Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors, representing 1-3% of all gastrointestinal cancer. Surgical resection is the only curative treatment. Minimally invasive approaches such as laparoscopic and robotic-assisted resections for gastric GISTs have proved to be oncologically and surgically safe. We report here a case series of robot-assisted …

1. Abstract 1.1. Background: A capsule is a solid dosage form that delivers a defined dose of an active ingredient. Most capsules are made for oral application by mouth with subsequent swallowing. Capsule materials for the shell are not only of importance for the release of active ingredients, but should also be without any impact …

1. Abstract 1.1. Background: The current COVID-19 pandemic has put all health units in crisis. The easy transmissibility facilitated the fast spread to all countries, and Guatemala was not the exception. By May 2020 almost 229 thousand cases were reported, with 3.2% of case fatality. Among the principal mortality risks factors there are: advance age, …

1. Abstract 1.1. Introduction: A few studies have investigated the occurrence of anti-ribosomal P antibody (Anti-P) in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), based on the partial overlap of clinical and pathological features ofAIH and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), for which anti-P is a diagnostic biomarker. In face of the controversial results obtained, this study aimed to evaluate …
