Analysis of hepatocellular carcinoma associated with hepatitis B virus
J Cell Mol Med. 2023 Jul 30. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.17867. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe hepatitis B virus (HBV) is considered one of the main driving forces in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Human HBV is a partially double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) virus consisting of approximately 3.2 kbp. HBV predominantly infects hepatocytes via the receptor sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) and coreceptor hepatic proteoglycan. The replication of HBV in hepatocytes leads to apoptosis while simultaneously leading to cirrhosis and cancer. Although the integration of dsDNA into the hepatocyte genome seems...

End-Stage Renal Disease: Medical Management
Am Fam Physician. 2021 Nov 1;104(5):493-499.ABSTRACTEnd-stage renal disease (ESRD) is diagnosed when kidney function is no longer adequate for long-term survival without kidney transplantation or dialysis. Primary care clinicians should refer people at risk of ESRD to nephrology to optimize disease management. Kidney transplantation typically yields the best patient outcomes, although most patients are treated with dialysis. The decision to initiate dialysis is best made through shared decision-making. Because most patients with ESRD elect to receive hemodialysis, the preservation of peripheral veins is important for those...
