  • Primary Liver Cancer: Epidemiological And
    PRIMARY LIVER CANCER: EPIDEMIOLOGICAL AND BIOMARKER DISCOVERY STUDIES Nimzing Gwamzhi Ladep Imperial College London Department of Medicine December 2013 Thesis submitted for Doctor of Philosophy 1 THESIS ABSTRACT With previous reports indicating changes in mortality, risk factors and management of primary liver cancer (PLC), evaluation of current trends in the incidence and mortality rates was indicated. Late diagnosis has been implicated to be a major contributor to the high fatality rates of PLC. This work aimed at: studying trends of PLC by subcategories globally in general, and in England and Wales, in particular; investigating liver-related morbidities of HIV infected patients in an African setting; and discovering urinary biomarkers of hepatocellular carcinoma. The World Health Organisation (WHO) and Small Area Health Statistics Unit (SAHSU) databases were interrogated respectively, in order to achieve the first aim. The second aim was achieved through utilisation of databases of an African-based HIV treatment programme- AIDS Prevention Initiative in Nigeria (APIN), located in Jos, Nigeria. The European Union-funded Prevention of Liver Fibrosis and Cancer in Africa (PROLIFICA) case-control study in three West African countries was the platform through which urinary metabolic profiling was accomplished. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and parallel ultra-performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) were used for biomarker discovery studies. Mortality rates of intrahepatic bile duct carcinoma (IHBD) increased in all countries that were studied. Misclassification of hilar cholangiocarcinoma accounted for only a small increase in the rate of IHBD in England and Wales. With over 90% screening rate for viral hepatitides, the rates of hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV) and 2 HBV/HCV in HIV-infected patients in the APIN programme were 17.8%, 11.3% and 2.5% respectively.

  • Secondary Hemochromatosis As a Result of Acute Transfusion-Induced Iron Overload in a Burn Patient Michael Amatto1 and Hernish Acharya2*
    Amatto and Acharya Burns & Trauma (2016) 4:10 DOI 10.1186/s41038-016-0034-z CASE REPORT Open Access Secondary hemochromatosis as a result of acute transfusion-induced iron overload in a burn patient Michael Amatto1 and Hernish Acharya2* Abstract Background: Red blood cell transfusions are critical in burn management. The subsequent iron overload that can occur from this treatment can lead to secondary hemochromatosis with multi-organ damage. Case Presentation: While well recognized in patients receiving chronic transfusions, we present a case outlining the acute development of hemochromatosis secondary to multiple transfusions in a burn patient. Conclusions: Simple screening laboratory measures and treatment options exist which may significantly reduce morbidity; thus, we believe awareness of secondary hemochromatosis in those treating burn patients is critical.

S66 Essential trace elements in human health: a physician's view. – Tomsk : Publishing House of Tomsk State University, 2018. – 224 p. ISBN 978-5-94621-683-8 Disturbances in trace element homeostasis may result in the development of pathologic states and diseases. The most characteristic patterns of a modern human being are deficiency of essential and excess of toxic trace elements. Such a deficiency frequently occurs due to insufficient trace element content in diets or increased requirements of an organism. All these changes of trace element homeostasis form an individual trace element portrait of a person. Consequently, impaired balance of every trace element should be analyzed in the view of other patterns of trace element portrait. Only personalized approach to diagnosis can meet these requirements and result in successful treatment. Effective management and timely diagnosis of trace element deficiency and toxicity may occur only in the case of adequate assessment of trace element status of every individual based on recent data on trace element metabolism. Therefore, the most recent basic data on participation of essential trace elements in physiological processes, metabolism, routes and volumes of entering to the body, relation to various diseases, medical applications with a special focus on iron (Fe), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), iodine (I), cobalt (Co), chromium, and molybdenum (Mo) are reviewed.
