Safety and Risk Factors of Pure Laparoscopic Living Donor Right Hepatectomy: Comparison to Open Technique in Propensity Score-matched Analysis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Although islet xenotransplantation is a promising therapy for type 1 diabetes, its clinical application has been hampered by cellular rejection and the requirement for high levels of immunosuppression. The aim of this study was to determine the role of Foxp3 regulatory T (Treg) cells in costimulation blockad...
