Background
The aim of this retrospective review was to evaluate the long-term survival benefits of thermal ablation versus wedge or segmental resection in solitary HCC lesions using tumor size and clinical factors.Methods
Survival analysis was performed on 43,601 patients from 2004 to 2015 in the National Cancer Database with solitary HCC lesions ≤5 cm with further stratification by tumor size, fibrosis score, and type of resection.Results
In patients with moderate fibrosis or less, survival benefit was seen with one-segment resection over ablation in tumors 1.1–3 cm (HR 0.54, p = 0.03) while tumors of 3.1–5 cm received survival benefit from wedge (HR 0.44, p = 0.04), one (HR 0.28, p = 0.001) and two-segment (HR 0.20, p = 0.001) resections over ablation. In patients with severe fibrosis to cirrhosis, wedge resection demonstrated survival benefit over ablation in patients with tumors 1.1–3 cm (HR 0.48, p = 0.01) with no survival benefit of any resection type in patients with tumors of 3.1–5 cm.Conclusion
These findings suggest that the decision to utilize thermal ablation versus resection to extend survival in solitary HCC lesions should include tumor size, fibrosis score, and type of resection. 相似文献4.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is increasing in prevalence and has no guideline-recommended therapy, related in part to a lack of mechanism. Traditionally, HFpEF was thought to be secondary to afterload overload due to systemic hypertension; however, accumulating evidence suggests that HFpEF continues to worsen despite adequate control of blood pressure. Emerging data support the suggestion that myocardial ischemia secondary to coronary microvascular dysfunction could be the new paradigm pathophysiology. Several prospective, observational cohort studies indicate that the outcomes of patients with microvascular dysfunction, after an interval of several years, are dominated by HFpEF hospitalizations. Further, the most prevalent clinical phenotype (eg older women with multiple comorbidities) of patients with HFpEF resembles those with coronary microvascular dysfunction, albeit older. In this review, we provide in-depth insight about this emerging HFpEF paradigm, discuss potential therapeutic implications of this pathophysiology, and summarize some important knowledge gaps. 相似文献

In a 20-year-old woman, a complicated full-term delivery was followed by a 14-month history of galactorrhea, amenorrhea, and symptoms of hypocortisolism. Evaluation revealed the presence of an empty sella, hyperprolactinemia, and an isolated pituitary deficiency of ACTH, resulting in secondary adrenal insufficiency. The defect in ACTH secretion was apparently due to intrinsic pituitary rather than hypothalamic disease, because administration of lysine vasopressin did not stimulate ACTH release. An empty sella with hyperprolactinemia has been described before. However, to the authors' knowledge, isolated ACTH deficiency as a complication of postpartum hypopituitarism (atypical Sheehan's syndrome) in association with an empty sella and hyperprolactinemia has not previously been reported. 相似文献
