The proportions of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) involving portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) varies greatly in different countries or regions, ranging from 13% to 45%. The treatment regimens for PVTT recommended by HCC guidelines in different countries or regions also vary greatly. In recent years, with the progress and development of surgical concepts, radiotherapy techniques, systematic therapies (for example, VEGF inhibitors, tyrosine kinase in-hibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors), patients with HCC involving PVTT have more treatment options and their prognoses have been significantly improved. To achieve the maximum benefit, both clinicians and patients need to think rationally about the indications of treatment modalities, the occurrence of severe adverse events, and the optimal fit for the population. In this review, we provide an update on the treatment modalities available for patients with HCC in-volving PVTT. Trials with large sample size for patients with advanced or unresectable HCC are also reviewed.

Background and Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of high frame rate contrast-en-hanced ultrasound (H-CEUS) of focal liver lesions (FLLs). Methods: From July 2017 to June 2019, conventional con-trast-enhanced ultrasound (C-CEUS)
A new definition of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) was proposed in 2020. The change from nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to MAFLD highlights the metabolic abnormalities that accompany fatty liver. The diagnosis of MA
To the Editor,rnWe read with great interest the article by Yu et al.1 who reported that the metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) criteria are more practical and im-prove the identification of high-risk patients with fatty liver dis
Background and Aims: Liver enzyme abnormalities in coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) are being addressed in the literature. The predictive risk of elevated liver enzymes has not been established for COVID-19 mortality. In this study, we hypothesized that elevat
Background and Aims: For high morbidity and mortality, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) becomes a major health issue worldwide. Nowadays, numerous non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are known to regulate the occurrence and patho-genesis of tumors. Some ncRNAs have al
Background and Aims: Perivascular epithelioid cell neo-plasms (PEComas) are a rare type of mesenchymal neo-plasm and their preoperative diagnosis is challenging. In this study, we summarized the experience from a single medical center to study the examina
The prevalence of metabolic (dysfunction)-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is rapidly increasing and affects up to two billion individuals globally, and this has also resulted in increased risks for cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and liver tra
目标温度管理(target temperature management, TTM)应用于临床已经有20年的历史,是目前唯一被指南推荐用于心脏骤停患者脑保护的干预措施,但是关于最佳目标温度,仍然存在很多争议。2021年6月,TTM-2研究结果公布,该研究是目前关于心脏骤停样本量最大的RCT研究,共入选1 850例院外心脏骤停患者(out of hospital cardiac arrest, OHCA)患者,随机分为低温组(目标温度33 ℃)和常温组(体温>37.8 ℃时积极处理发热),结果发现与常温相比
Background and Aims: The relationship between quanti-tative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging features and gene-expression signatures associated with the recur-rence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is not well studied. Methods: In this study, we
Background and Aims: The prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is extremely poor; therefore, there is an urgent need for novel prognostic molecular biomarkers of HCC. The current investigation utilized circular (circ)RNA-associated competing endogen
