Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is still regarded as a major complication. The incidence of POPF varies greatly in different reports, depending on the definition applied at each surgical center. Our aim was to agree upon an objective and internationally accepted definition to allow comparison of different surgical experiences.An international panel of pancreatic surgeons, working in well-known,...
Acute lung injury and inflammation can occur after hepatic ischemia/reperfusion or cryoablation. The etiology of this response is uncertain although it involves NF-κB–mediated cytokine release from the liver.Inflammation-specific complementary DNA microarrays were utilized to evaluate cytokine upregulation in mouse lung at 4 hours after partial-volume hepatic cryoablation with a recirculating liquid...
Mortality after acute respiratory distress syndrome is higher in males than in females. Gender differences in pulmonary vascular reactivity and local inflammatory response may explain this disparity. We hypothesized that endothelium-dependent pulmonary vasorelaxation is impaired in males and that this effect is related to differences in local inflammatory cytokine expression from the pulmonary vasculature...
