A Closer Look at the Innovative PAGED-B Score
I wish to express my thoughts regarding the recent publication titled “PAGE-B incorporating moderate HBV DNA levels predicts risk of HCC among patients entering into HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B” 1. Chun et al. developed a new hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk prediction score (PAGED-B score) in non-cirrhotic treatment-naïve adult patients who started ant iviral therapy upon entering into hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive chronic hepatitis B from chronic infection which was found to have a high accuracy of predicting the 5-year risk of HCC.

Genes, Vol. 15, Pages 577: Comprehensive Bioinformatic Investigation of TP53 Dysregulation in Diverse Cancer Landscapes
ynski P53 overexpression plays a critical role in cancer pathogenesis by disrupting the intricate regulation of cellular proliferation. Despite its firmly established function as a tumor suppressor, elevated p53 levels can paradoxically contribute to tumorigenesis, influenced by factors such as exposure to carcinogens, genetic mutations, and viral infections. This phenomenon is observed across a spectrum of cancer types, including bladder (BLCA), ovarian (OV), cervical (CESC), cholangiocarcinoma (CHOL), colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBC), esophageal carcinoma (ESCA), head and neck squamou...

Effectiveness and Safety of Radiofrequency Ablation versus Liver Resection in the Treatment of Early-stage Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: During the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, hepatectomy demonstrates superior clinical efficacy compared to radiofrequency ablation, particularly in its ability to control tumor recurrence. However, radiofrequency ablation presents with fewer complications and a higher level of safety. These findings can serve as a valuable foundation for clinicians when selecting the most suitable treatment approaches for liver cancer.PMID:38684504 | DOI:10.62713/aic.3155 (Source: Annali Italiani di Chirurgia)

Hepatocellular carcinoma and musculoskeletal system: A narrative literature review
World J Gastroenterol. 2024 Apr 21;30(15):2109-2117. doi: 10.3748/wjg.v30.i15.2109.ABSTRACTMusculoskeletal alterations in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are less common than liver-related complications. However, they can significantly impact the quality of life and overall prognosis of patients with HCC. The main obstacle in the clinical assessment of HCC-induced musculoskeletal alterations is related to effective and timely diagnosis because these complications are often asymptomatic and unapparent during routine clinical evaluations. This narrative literature review aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the contem...
