Does cyst growth rate predict malignancy in patients with branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms?
In combination with cyst size and the presence of mural nodules, cyst growth rate could be used to predict malignancy in patients with Br-IPMN.
Administration of N2733 increased oxygen delivery index and prevented the LPS-induced hypotension and metabolic and gastric mucosal acidosis in an anesthetized canine endotoxic shock model, suggesting its beneficial effect on local blood flow against tissue hypoxia. These findings suggest that blockade of NF-kappaB activation prevents hypodynamic shock and gastric hypoperfusin in endotoxic shock.
