Leucoencephalopathy after Portacaval Anastomosis in a Patient with Hepatic Cirrhosis.
Pathological changes in the central nervous system, similar to those described in Wilson's disease, have been found in patients dying in hepatic coma and when cerebral symptoms develop after shunt operations for portal hypertension (Gibson, 1963). In the following case a severe leucoencephalopathy of unusual type was demonstrated in a patient with cirrhosis of the liver who died 18 months after...
متن کاملAmifostine improves hemodynamic parameters in doxorubicin-pretreated rabbits.
Amifostine reduces nephrotoxicity and myelotoxicity of alkylating agents. Little is known about its role in preventing cardiotoxicity. We studied if amifostine could affect the hemodynamic parameters in doxorubicin-pretreated rabbits. The animals were divided into six groups consisting of 6 rabbits each. Group 1--doxorubicin iv 2 mg/kg of body weight 4 times every 14 days (cumulative dose 8 mg/...
متن کاملPartial Portacaval Shunt: Narrow Diameter H-Graft
Background. Partial diversion of the portal system aims to redeuce portal pressure sufficiently to prevent variceal hemorrhage but still maintain adwquate hepatic portal flow. Methods. Partial portacaval shunts were performed in 25 patients with cirrhosis with portal hypertension and esophageal varices, either as a primary procedure (n 16) or for failure of endoscopic sclerotherapy (n= 9), with...
متن کاملClamping Improves TRW and Mean Field Approximations
We examine the effect of clamping variables for approximate inference in undirected graphical models with pairwise relationships and discrete variables. For any number of variable labels, we demonstrate that clamping and summing approximate sub-partition functions can lead only to a decrease in the partition function estimate for TRW, and an increase for the naive mean field method, in each cas...
متن کاملAltered expression of genes regulating skeletal muscle mass in the portacaval anastomosis rat.
We examined the temporal relationship between portacaval anastomosis (PCA), weight gain, changes in skeletal muscle mass and molecular markers of protein synthesis, protein breakdown, and satellite cell proliferation and differentiation. Male Sprague-Dawley rats with end to side PCA (n=24) were compared with sham-operated pair-fed rats (n=24). Whole body weight, lean body mass, and forelimb gri...
