Products or Devices to be Studied:
Branched Chain Amino Acid anhydrous blend (1250mg valine, 2500mg leucine, 1250mg isoleucine) Pre-assigned IND number: 140871 Holder of the IND (Richard Marshall, MD)
Purpose of the Study:
Aim: To evaluate the effect of branched-chain amino acid (BCAA)
Methods Study design A prospective, multicenter, international observational study will be conducted. The study is designed to determine the effect of hospitalisation due to acute illness on the changes in muscle mass and muscle function. The secondary endpoint of the study is to identify health
Globally, the mortality after any infection in cirrhosis patients is very high. The cumulative mortality in patients with infections was 43.5% (11,987 patients) where as the mortality rate without infection was 13.6% (2317 patients). Over the years, variceal bleeding causing death in cirrhosis has
These patients are also at a higher risk of the complications of hyponatremia such as brain injury, the main result of acute symptomatic hyponatremia and associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Severe hyponatremia (i.e., a serum sodium concentration <125 mmol/L) ), if unrecognized in
A group of 60 patients with HBV induced cirrhosis will be recruited for study, which involved a 4 times IMT with gastroduodenoscopy and the time interval is generally 2 weeks. Participants can keep taking their present treatment. All participants will be assessed at baseline, after 3 months, 6
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is still one of the most frequent malignancies in Europe. In United States the estimated new cases in 2010 were 21000 (12730 male and 8270 female) with 10570 estimated deaths (6350 male and 4220 female)[7,8]. In Italy the estimated new cases in 2013 were 13200 (7900 males
BACKGROUND Interest in vitamin D has seen an unprecedented revival sparked by the finding that vitamin D has pleiotropic effects. The nuclear vitamin D receptor (VDR) is widely present in different cell types and organs and regulates more than 200 genes.
The link between vitamin D and critical
Early Goal Directed Therapy using a Physiological Holistic View. A multicenter study in Latin America: The ANDROMEDA-SHOCK Study

Study design and participants The study was conducted in three counties (Yucheng, Xintai and Dongchangfu) of Shandong province, China, which had the highest reported HCV case numbers in the province. Potential patients with chronic HCV infection were recruited by checking the medical records of the
Cirrhosis and congestive heart failure (CHF) are major clinical disease states characterized by renal sodium and water retention with edema formation. Abnormalities of circulatory and volume homeostasis in these diseases elicit neuro-hormonal responses influencing renal function and leading to
The Gut Barrier and Pathological Bacterial Translocation: The "Achilles Heel" of Hepatology
The intestinal wall is a complex barrier that exists between humans and their environment. Inside the intestinal lumen, the commensal flora exposes the epithelium to nearly 100 trillion bacteria.1 This
Previous work has demonstrated the pathophysiological role of arginine-vasopressin (AVP) in ischemic stroke. The mechanism of action of AVP is by 3 receptor subtypes: V1a, V1b and V2 expressed in brain, pituitary gland, myocardium, vasculature and kidneys. The role of the vasopressin receptors V1a
