Predicting successful outcomes in living-donor liver transplants

A new study on identifying which patients were likely to have poor outcomes following a living-donor liver transplant (LDLT) found that measuring how a certain non-toxic dye was eliminated by the liver shortly after surgery was an accurate indicator of liver function, and therefore a reliable indicator of the outcome of the procedure. The study used a simple non-invasive device to measure the dye...

'Signature' of chromosome instability predicts cancer outcomes

Microscopic examination of tumor specimens cannot always predict a cancer's aggressiveness, leading to increased interest in molecular approaches to diagnosis. Now, researchers in the Children's Hospital Informatics Program (CHIP) at the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology report that a genetic profile indicating chromosomal instability -- an increased tendency to develop chrom...

Enhanced Gene Therapy Outcomes Following Latest Revolution And Refinement

Investigators and patients alike look forward to the day when it will be possible to correct the effects of abnormal genes by supplying the body with normal ones. Gene therapy refers to the treatment of a genetic disorder by inserting // normal genes into abnormal cells. The hope is that the transferred genes will cure the basic defect rather than merely alleviating its damage. Getting...

Testicular Cancer Patients Have Improved Reproductive Outcomes After Treatment

The survival rate of patients with testicular cancer has increased significantly over the past several years. What more, new research has now shown that fatherhood is a reachable possibility for many men who survive the disease.// Testicular cancer is the most common form of cancer among men ages 20 to 40 and is slightly more common on the right side than on the left. The cause for the...
