- Bile duct confluence: anatomic variations and its classification(2014) CHAIB, Eleazar; KANAS, Alexandre Fligelman; GALVAO, Flavio Henrique Ferreira; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto CarneiroAccurate knowledge of the anatomy of the bile ducts is critical for successfully hepato-biliary surgery. We describe the anatomical variations of the confluence of the bile ducts, their branches patterns, frequency and classification. From 1996 to 2011, we have collected data of the bile duct confluence. 2,032 and 1,014 anatomical variations of right and left bile ducts, respectively, were reviewed and classified according to the branching pattern. The frequencies of each type of the right hepatic duct (RHD) were as follows: Type A1-1,247 (61.3 %); Type A2-296 (14.5 %); Type A3-272 (13.3 %); Type A4-124 (6.1 %); Type A5-21 (1 %) and others-72 (3.5 %) and, for the left hepatic duct (LHD) was as follows: Type B1-773 (76.2 %); Type B2-153 (15 %); Type B3-38 (3.7 %); Type B4-9 (0.8 %); Type B5-29 (2.8 %) and others-12 (1.1 %). Atypical branching patterns of both the right and left hepatic ducts were found in 14 and 8 %, respectively. The two most common variations of the RHD were right anterior and posterior hepatic ducts join together to form the RHD and trifurcation where the RHD is absent and right anterior and posterior hepatic ducts join directly to the confluence with the LHD to form the common hepatic duct. The two most common variations in the LHD were segment IV drainage to the left and right hepatic ducts.
- Review of experimental models for inducing hepatic cirrhosis by bile duct ligation and carbon tetrachloride injection(2012) MARQUES, Thamirys Guimaraes; CHAIB, Eleazar; FONSECA, Juliana Hamati da; LOURENCO, Ana Cecilia Rodrigues; SILVA, Felipe Duarte; RIBEIRO JR., Marcelo Augusto Fontenelle; GALVAO, Flavio Henrique Ferreira; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto CarneiroPURPOSE: To present a review about a comparative study of bile duct ligation versus carbon tetrachloride Injection for inducing experimental liver cirrhosis. METHODS: This research was made through Medline/PubMed and SciELO web sites looking for papers on the content ""induction of liver cirrhosis in rats"". We have found 107 articles but only 30 were selected from 2004 to 2011. RESULTS: The most common methods used for inducing liver cirrhosis in the rat were administration of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and bile duct ligation (BDL). CCl4 has induced cirrhosis from 36 hours to 18 weeks after injection and BDL from seven days to four weeks after surgery. CONCLUSION: For a safer inducing cirrhosis method BDL is better than CCl4 because of the absence of toxicity for researches and shorter time for achieving it.
- Parameters involved and viability of immunosuppression on islet allotransplantation procedure in rodents(2014) IUAMOTO, Leandro R.; MEYER, Alberto; CHAIB, Eleazar; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz ACINTRODUCTION: Autoimmunity and rejection after transplantation must still be overcome in the technical development of islet transplantation for the treatment of type 1 diabetes. It is therefore necessary to inhibit rejection of islet grafts while maintaining the graft's ability to secrete insulin. Although the use of immunosuppressants reduces the acute rejection rate in transplant patients, long-term side effects must be prevented. OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present study is to organize and analyze the parameters of immunosuppression involved in experimental attempts of allotransplantation in rodents. METHODOLOGY: This review was performed using the Pubmed database to search for published articles containing the keywords ""rodent islet transplantation"". The inclusion criteria involved allotransplantation with rodents' islets and the reference lists of the publications retrieved that were eligible. The exclusion criteria involved isotransplantation, autotransplantation, and xenotransplantation such as transplantation in other species. RESULTS: Twenty studies related to allotransplantation were selected for this systematic review based on immunosuppression. CONCLUSION: New immunosuppressive drugs increased the survival rates of allotransplantation in rodents by reducing the side effects. The advances in immunosuppression raise the possibility of overcoming autoimmunity and rejection after allotransplantation.
- Human islet xenotransplantation in rodents: A literature review of experimental model trends(2017) IUAMOTO, Leandro Ryuchi; FRANCO, Andre Silva; SUGUITA, Fabio Yuji; ESSU, Felipe Futema; OLIVEIRA, Lucas Torres; KATO, Juliana Mika; TORSANI, Matheus Belloni; MEYER, Alberto; ANDRAUS, Wellington; CHAIB, Eleazar; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto CarneiroAmong the innovations for the treatment of type 1 diabetes, islet transplantation is a less invasive method of treatment, although it is still in development. One of the greatest barriers to this technique is the low number of pancreas donors and the low number of pancreases that are available for transplantation. Rodent models have been chosen in most studies of islet rejection and type 1 diabetes prevention to evaluate the quality and function of isolated human islets and to identify alternative solutions to the problem of islet scarcity. The purpose of this study is to conduct a review of islet xenotransplantation experiments from humans to rodents, to organize and analyze the parameters of these experiments, to describe trends in experimental modeling and to assess the viability of this procedure. In this study, we reviewed recently published research regarding islet xenotransplantation from humans to rodents, and we summarized the findings and organized the relevant data. The included studies were recent reports that involved xenotransplantation using human islets in a rodent model. We excluded the studies that related to isotransplantation, autotransplantation and allotransplantation. A total of 34 studies that related to xenotransplantation were selected for review based on their relevance and current data. Advances in the use of different graft sites may overcome autoimmunity and rejection after transplantation, which may solve the problem of the scarcity of islet donors in patients with type 1 diabetes.
- A seleção de pacientes utilizando-se o critério meld melhora a sobrevida a curto prazo dos pacientes submetidos ao transplante de fígado?(2013) CHAIB, Eleazar; FIGUEIRA, Estela Regina Ramos; BRUNHEROTO, André; GATTI, Arthur Paredes; FERNANDES, Daniela Valentini; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto CarneiroINTRODUCTION: The Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score introduced in 2002 has come to improve selection of patients dying in the liver transplantation waiting list. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the short-term survival in liver transplantation around the world when MELD score was applied as selection criteria. METHODS - A review has been done at the online database PubMed/ Medline/Scielo. The expressions applied for the search were ""liver transplantation and/or MELD and/or survival analysis"" from 2002 to 2009. Among the 124 analyzed articles, 94 were excluded due to irrelevance of the subject and lack of information. Were considered L1, L2A and MELD>20 the sickest patient; L2B, L3 and MELD< 20 the healthiest. Was compiled the data of transplanted patients, their one-year survival rate related to MELD score and compare it with pre-MELD era. RESULTS: MELD score has been applied, mainly in America and Europe patients, range from 8.4 to 30. One-year survival ranged from 66.5 to 92%. Analysis of patient survival rate significance between the pre-MELD and post-MELD era showed: Group I (L1 and L2A) x Group III (MELD>20), significant (p<0,0001); Group II (L2B and L3) x Group IV(MELD<20), not significant. Also, comparative one-year survival by country in the MELD era was search. CONCLUSION: The MELD score have significantly improved short-term survival for the sickest patient on the waiting list for liver transplantation; additionally, it does not have any significant impact in survival for the healthiest patient.
- Review of experimental attempts of islet allotransplantation in rodents: Parameters involved and viability of the procedure(2014) IUAMOTO, Leandro Ryuchi; MEYER, Alberto; CHAIB, Eleazar; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto CarneiroThe purpose of the present study was to organize the parameters involved in experimental allotransplantation in rodents to elaborate the most suitable model to supply the scarcity of islet donors. We used the PubMed database to systematically search for published articles containing the keywords ""rodent islet transplantation"" to review. We included studies that involved allotransplantation experiments with rodents' islets, and we reviewed the reference lists from the eligible publications that were retrieved. We excluded articles related to isotransplantation, autotransplantation and xenotransplantation, i.e., transplantation in other species. A total of 25 studies related to allotransplantation were selected for systematic review based on their relevance and updated data. Allotransplantation in rodents is promising and continues to develop. Survival rates of allografts have increased with the discovery of new immunosuppressive drugs and the use of different graft sites. These successes suggest that islet transplantation is a promising method to overcome the scarcity of islet donors and advance the treatment options for type 1 diabetes.
