Are neuroendocrine pancreatic tumors risk factors for pancreatic fistula after pancreatic surgery?
We demonstrated that after excluding factors like different definitions of PF, or different peri- or postoperative management, patients with NPT have a significantly higher risk of postoperative PF than patients with other pancreatic diseases.
Mercury increases the vasoconstrictor response to phenylephrine by reducing NO bioavailability and increasing the involvement of ROS and constrictor prostanoids. Apocynin protects the vessel from the deleterious effects caused by NADPH oxidase, but not from those caused by prostanoids, thus demonstrating a two-way action.
