Does cardiac Output Assessed by the Fourth-Generation Arterial Waveform Analysis System be Unreliable in Liver Transplant Recipients?
Our study demonstrates that the CO measurements in liver transplant recipients by the latest FloTrac system and the PAC do not meet the recognized interchangeability criterion. Although the result showed improvement in linear regression analysis, it failed to display a qualified trending ability.
CEACAM1 expression was common in HCC, and CEACAM1 cytoplastic expression was closely associated with tumor progression, angiogenesis, and poorer RFS, indicating that cytoplastic CEACAM1 might be a predictor of relapsing phenotype and a possible novel target of antiangiogenic therapy for patients with HCC.
