Rapid progression of encephalopathy in a patient with hepatitis B infection.

Abstract:

:The mortality rate of fulminant hepatic failure was high until liver transplantation was presented as a potential therapy. We encountered a patient with hyperacute fulminant hepatic failure due to hepatitis B virus infection. Living donor liver transplantation was planned but abandoned because her brain edema progressed too rapidly to complete the donor evaluation. The present case reveals the limitation of living donor liver transplantation as a treatment for hyperacute fulminant hepatic failure.

  • Comparison of mechanisms underlying changes in glucose utilization in fasted rats anesthetized with propofol or sevoflurane: Hyperinsulinemia is exaggerated by propofol with concomitant insulin resistance induced by an acute lipid load.

    abstract::The effects of anesthesia with sevoflurane and with propofol on glucose utilization in rats were investigated. Sevoflurane significantly impairs glucose utilization whereas propofol does not. Both insulin secretion and sensitivity affect glucose utilization. Propofol is hydrophobic, and anesthesia with this agent is a...
