Is the detection of intraoperative bacterial translocation in the mesenteric lymph nodes useful in predicting patients at high risk for postoperative infectious complications after esophagectomy?
BT frequently occurs during esophagectomies, and postoperative bacteremia is likely to be gut-derived. Patients with positive bacteria in the MLN-2 sample should be carefully managed because these patients are more susceptible to postoperative infectious complications.
C/EBPbeta contributes to the induction of hepatocyte replication in response to HGF in rodents, which is likely due to post-translational modifications.
