Does intensive Exercise Preferentially Mobilize Skin-Homing T Cells and NK Cells?
A small subset of CLA+ lymphocytes are mobilized into blood during acute intensive exercise, but CLA+ cells are not major contributors to exercise lymphocytosis, thus providing preliminary evidence that the skin is not a major origin, or homing destination, of exercise-sensitive lymphocytes.
Although not originally designed for the application to LDLT, the MELD score is useful for predicting medical expenses in LDLT. Similar to those of deceased-donor liver transplantation, the disadvantage of high medical expenses associated with a high MELD score allow consideration of an earlier elective operation in suitable cases.
