Article Abstract
Purpose: We compared the clinical outcomes of modified procedures for associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) based on a risk-reduced strategy with those of classic ALPPS procedures in treating large liver carcinoma.
Materials And Methods: Short-term outcomes, increases in future liver remnant (FLR) and functional FLR (FFLR), and overall survival (OS) were compared between 45 consecutive patients treated with modified ALPPS procedures and 34 patients treated with classic ALPPS procedures.
Results: Clinical outcomes after the 1st-stage operation markedly improved with the modified procedures. Although the proportions of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma were higher in the modified group, the mortality and incidence of severe complications did not increase. FLR and FFLR hypertrophy at 1 week after the 1st-stage operation were similar in both groups; however, kinetic growth rates in the modified group were lower. OS rates were similar.
Conclusion: Modified ALPPS procedures could be safely applied to provide long-term survival for patients with liver cirrhosis without sufficient FLR.

An aptasensor-based fluorescent signal amplification strategy for highly sensitive detection of mycotoxins.
Anal Methods
September 2025
Key Laboratory of Biorheological Science and Technology of Ministry of Education, College of Bioengineering, Chongqing University, Chongqing 400044, P. R. China.
Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is one of the most toxic mycotoxins that pose great health threats to humans. Herein, an aptasensor-based fluorescent signal amplification strategy is developed for the detection of AFB1. Initially, the AFB1 aptamers labelled with carboxyfluorescein (FAM) are adsorbed onto graphene oxide (GO), triggering energy transfer.

Department of Medicine, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria, Australia. (V.Y., B.C.V.C., L.C., L.O., M.W.P.).
Background: To assess the efficacy and safety of tenecteplase in patients presenting within 24 hours of symptom onset with a large vessel occlusion and target mismatch on perfusion computed tomography.
Methods: ETERNAL-LVO was a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded end point, phase 3, superiority trial where adult participants with a large vessel occlusion, presenting within 24 hours of onset with salvageable tissue on computed tomography perfusion, were randomized to tenecteplase 0.25 mg/kg or standard care across 11 primary and comprehensive stroke centers in Australia.
PCISOS Risk Profiles Stratify Heterogeneous Outcomes in Minor Posterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke: A Post Hoc Analysis of the CHANCE-2 Trial.
Stroke
September 2025
Department of Neurology, China National Clinical Research Center for Neurological Diseases, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University.
Background: Risk stratification in posterior circulation ischemic stroke (PCIS) is challenging. Although the Posterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke Outcome Score (PCISOS) was developed to address this, its utility in minor PCIS and in identifying homogeneous populations for clinical trials or treatment-responsive subgroups remains uncertain.
Methods: CHANCE-2 (Clopidogrel in High-Risk Patients With Acute Non-disabling Cerebrovascular Events-II) was a multicenter, randomized trial that enrolled patients with minor stroke or high-risk transient ischemic attack who carried CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles.
Diagnostic accuracy of IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase for the diagnosis of coeliac disease.

Introduction: A no-biopsy approach has been suggested for diagnosing coeliac disease (CD) in adult patients. This approach is already well established in diagnosing children with CD. This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase (IgA anti-tTG) in predicting duodenal mucosal lesions diagnostic of CD in adult patients.

This work aims to construct a functional titanium surface with spontaneous electrical stimulation for immune osteogenesis and antibacteria. A silver-calcium micro-galvanic cell was engineered on the titanium implant surface to spontaneously generate microcurrents for osteoimmunomodulation and bacteria killing, which provides a promising strategy for the design of a multifunctional electroactive titanium implant. Titanium-based implants are usually bioinert, which often leads to inflammation-induced loosening.
