The majority of men felt that surviving the debilitating treatment(s) was both an accomplishment and worthwhile trade-off. Neither the rate of unemployment (7%) nor divorce (10%) was remarkable.

AbstractPersistent infection with hepatitis viruses is a major medical burden that unfortunately is often ignored in the general public. This results in a massive under-diagnosis of these infections.

Abstract:
162 Background: Although commonly performed, the benefit of routine surveillance testing (SvT) following curative resection of GEAC is undefined. We aimed to determine frequency of successful salvage therapy (SST) in patients (pts) with relapsed GEAC who were surveyed post curative therapy. Methods: Between 2011 and 2016, 210 consecutive pts with locally advanced GEAC underwent curative surgery and subsequent surveillance at Princess Margaret Cancer Center. SST was defined as any potentially curative therapy for recurrence which resulted in post-recurrence survival (PRS) two years without furt

4106 Background: Immunotherapy has shown remarkable progress in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in recent years. We aim to investigate the clinical factors associated with treatment response to HCC immunotherapy in Asian population. Methods: We identifiedHCC patients receiving immunotherapy (nivolumab, pembrolizumab, atezolizumab, durvalumab, tremelimumab, ipilimumab; including monotherapies or combinations) from January 2008 to June 2024 from a population-based cohort in Hong Kong. Primary outcomes were all-cause mortality and hospitalization stratified by etiology of HCC [Viral-HCC,

Abstract:
Abstract Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited blood condition resulting from abnormal hemoglobin production. It is one of the most common genetic diseases in the world. The clinical manifestations are variable and range from recurrent acute and debilitating painful crises to life-threatening pulmonary, cardiovascular, renal, and neurologic complications. The only curative treatment of SCD at this time is bone marrow transplantation (also called hematopoietic stem cell transplantation) using healthy blood stem cells from an unaffected brother or sister or from an unrelated donor if one can

Abstract:
Background: The increasing incidence of duodenal neoplasm has underlined different methods of resection depending on the clinical presentation, endoscopic features and histopathology. In this comprehensive review, we systematically describe the current knowledge concerning the diagnosis and management of duodenal adenomas (DAs) and discuss data considering all possible therapeutic approaches. Summary: Among a variety of duodenal lesions, including neuroendocrine tumors and gastrointestinal stromal tumors, DAs present precancerous lesions of the duodenal papilla or non-ampullary region necessit
