TL;DR: The data confirms the MICA/HCP5 region as susceptibility locus for HCV-related HCC and identifies rs2244546 in HCP5 as a novel tagging SNP, suggesting that rs 2244546 may better tag a putative true variant than the originally identified SNPs.

TL;DR: Cholesteryl-spermidine (Transfectall) represents a novel cationic compound for efficient transfection of cultured cells in vitro and has the potential to be used for gene transfer in vivo.

TL;DR: Cirrhotic patients with AVB treated with earlyTIPSS had lower death rates and lower rates of clinically significant bleeding within 1 year compared with patients treated without early TIPSS.

TL;DR: Patients with HEV-NA are usually anicteric and have a distinct clinical phenotype, with predominately bilateral asymmetrical involvement of, and more extensive damage to, the brachial plexus.

TL;DR: A temporal sequence of events is proposed in the HCV-infected cell whereby the primary alteration consists of a release of Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum, followed by uptake into mitochondria, which causes successive mitochondrial alterations comprising generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and impairment of the oxidative phosphorylation.
