Whole-body lipolytic rates and the rate of triglyceride-fatty acid cycling (reesterification of fatty acids released during lipolysis) were measured with stable isotopic tracers in the basal state and during beta-adrenergic blockade with propranolol infusion in five cachectic patients with squamous
BACKGROUND
Olive oil-based lipid emulsion (LE) and medium chain triglyceride/long chain triglyceride (MCT/LCT) emulsion are both LEs with low ω-6 polyunsaturated fat acids (PUFAs) content. However, which one of these LEs is associated with a lower infection risk in patients receiving parenteral
In order to clarify the abnormal lipid metabolism after resection of esophageal cancer, we measured serum cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglyceride phospholipid, free fatty acid, lipoprotein and apoprotein in 38 patients with esophageal cancer before and up to 4 weeks after operation. Patients were
Chyluria is leakage of lymphatic fluid into the urine, following trauma to or obstruction of the lymphatic system. We herein report a rare case of chyluria after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. A 69-year-old male complaining of epigastric pain and reflux symptoms was diagnosed with advanced
To assess the impact of enteral nutrition support on response and toxicity of the first-line chemotherapy in those patients with advanced or metastatic esophageal cancer.We collected the clinical data of 118 patients with unresectable advanced or metastatic OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the nutritional status of patients undergoing chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer using subjective global assessment (SGA) and association of prealbumin levels to nutritional status.
METHODS
A prospective study was performed on 154 patients with esophageal cancer who were
The purpose of our study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of fast-track surgery (FTS) in the treatment of esophageal cancer patients combined with metabolic syndrome. Ninety-four esophageal cancer patients with metabolic syndrome were selected in Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University
OBJECTIVE
This study was conducted to elucidate tumor-induced alterations in pace maker enzymes and possible effects of pre-operative nutritional support on those enzymes in gastrointestinal (GI) cancer patients.
METHODS
Three pacemaker enzymes; phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPck) for
Ligation of thoracic duct is the standard procedure currently used to prevent postoperative chylothorax for patients undergoing esophagectomy when thoracic duct is surgically injured or invaded by tumor. However, preservation of lymphovenous circulation is particularly important for a subset of
A variety of clinical calculations, including serum cholesterol, have been used as parameters of prognostic value in surgical populations, but there are few studies aimed at patients with esophageal carcinoma. In a set of patients with established esophageal cancer, cholesterol and triglyceride
Background: Even with the use of contrast-enhanced thin-layer chest computed tomography (CT) and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), the likelihood of cT2N0M0 squamous cell esophageal cancer correlating with the final pathologic outcome is
UNASSIGNED
Obesity and diabetes mellitus are associated with lifestyle-related carcinogenesis. They are also risk factors of esophageal adenocarcinoma, but there are only a few reports on association between obesity/diabetes and development of squamous cell carcinoma in the oral cavity and
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the structural changes at the molecular level and to assess the usefulness of Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy in the diagnosis of esophageal cancer.
METHODS
A pilot study was established of 10 consecutive patients with adenocarcinoma of the esophagus. Tissue
Although increased dietary fat or cholesterol has been reported to be a risk factor for the development of certain cancers, the effect of the serum lipid level on tumor metastasis has not been well documented. Fasting serum levels of total cholesterol (TC) and triglycerides (TG) were examined in 54
The purpose of the current study was to investigate the prognostic role of preoperative serum lipid levels in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and to preliminarily explore the mechanism of serum lipids in this disease. Preoperative lipids, including total cholesterol,
