Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents the major form of primary liver cancer. Alternative splicing events (ASEs) are critical to generating mRNA splice variants that can dictate cell fate during HCC development. We report different ASEs in a 3D in vitro HCC spheroid model. This short study serves as a template to design functional studies to target different splicing events in different subtypes of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a key therapeutic tool for biliary access, but cannulation failure occurs in 5%–10% of cases. We report a 92-year-old woman with obstructive jaundice and complete distal common bile duct obstruction, in whom standard ERCP failed. A percutaneous-endoscopic rendezvous (PE-RV) approach successfully established biliary drainage via a transhepatic guidewire and stent placement. However, the patient developed pneumoperitoneum, tension pneumothorax, and subcutaneous emphysema following abrupt catheter removal. These manifestations are collectively referred to as “air leak syndrome,” which encompasses the abnormal presence of air in the peritoneal cavity, pleural space, and subcutaneous tissue. Imaging showed no pneumoretroperitoneum, suggesting gas migration through an immature percutaneous tract. Urgent drainage and antibiotics led to gradual recovery. This case highlights PE-RV as a valuable salvage technique but underscores the risk of rare gas-related complications when percutaneous tract closure is premature. To minimize the risk of such complications, procedural protocols may need to incorporate delayed catheter removal or tract embolization to ensure safe outcomes. Careful catheter management, delayed removal, and interdisciplinary coordination are essential for safe outcomes.

Background/Aims
Sorafenib, lenvatinib, and atezolizumab combined with bevacizumab (Atezo/Bev) are approved first-line treatments for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC). However, direct comparisons among these therapies remain limited. This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of Atezo/Bev versus tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) as first-line therapies for uHCC.
Methods
Two independent authors conducted a literature search using electronic databases (Google Scholar, Medline, and PubMed) and manual reference list reviews up to June 2024. We included studies reporting on overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS) or safety data comparing Atezo/Bev versus TKI (sorafenib or lenvatinib) in patients with uHCC, irrespective of study design. Data extraction and statistical analysis were performed using RevMan 5.4.
Results
We included a total of 12 studies (Ten retrospective cohort studies, one prospective study, one randomized controlled trial) involving 9952 patients (3560 received Atezo/Bev combination therapy and 6392 received TKI). Atezo/Bev significantly improved OS and PFS compared to lenvatinib (HR: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.71–0.89, P = 0.0001 for OS; HR: 0.76, 95% CI: 0.64–0.90, P = 0.002 for PFS). Atezo/Bev also improved OS in viral patients (HR: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.60–0.86, P = 0.0004), while lenvatinib improved OS (HR: 1.36, 95% CI: 1.13–1.65, P = 0.001) and PFS (HR: 1.46, 95% CI: 1.04–2.05, P = 0.03) in nonviral patients. Atezo/Bev had fewer grade ≥3 adverse events than lenvatinib (OR: 0.43, 95% CI: 0.36–0.51, P = 0.03). Atezo/Bev also demonstrated superior OS and PFS compared to sorafenib (HR: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.57–0.81, P < 0.00001 for OS; HR: 0.67, 95% CI: 0.57–0.77, P < 0.00001 for PFS).
Conclusions
Atezo/Bev demonstrates better survival outcomes and safety profile compared to TKI. However, for patients with HCC of nonviral etiology, lenvatinib may be a more suitable alternative.
背景/目的索拉非尼、lenvatinib和atezolizumab联合贝伐单抗(Atezo/Bev)是被批准用于不可切除肝细胞癌(uHCC)的一线治疗药物。然而,这些疗法之间的直接比较仍然有限。本研究旨在比较Atezo/Bev与酪氨酸激酶抑制剂(TKIs)作为uHCC一线治疗的疗效和安全性。方法2名独立作者使用电子数据库(谷歌Scholar、Medline和PubMed)和人工参考文献列表进行文献检索,检索截止到2024年6月。我们纳入了报告了Atezo/Bev与TKI(索拉非尼或lenvatinib)在uHCC患者中的总生存期(OS)、无进展生存期(PFS)或安全性数据的研究,而不考虑研究设计。使用RevMan 5.4软件进行数据提取和统计分析。结果共纳入12项研究(10项回顾性队列研究,1项前瞻性研究,1项随机对照试验),涉及9952例患者(3560例接受Atezo/Bev联合治疗,6392例接受TKI治疗)。与lenvatinib相比,Atezo/Bev显著改善了OS和PFS (HR: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.71-0.89, P = 0.0001);HR: 0.76, 95% CI: 0.64-0.90, PFS P = 0.002)。Atezo/Bev还改善了病毒患者的OS (HR: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.60-0.86, P = 0.0004),而lenvatinib改善了非病毒患者的OS (HR: 1.36, 95% CI: 1.13-1.65, P = 0.001)和PFS (HR: 1.46, 95% CI: 1.04-2.05, P = 0.03)。Atezo/Bev的≥3级不良事件少于lenvatinib (OR: 0.43, 95% CI: 0.36-0.51, P = 0.03)。与索拉非尼相比,Atezo/Bev也显示出更好的OS和PFS (HR: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.57-0.81, P <;0.00001操作系统;HR: 0.67, 95% CI: 0.57-0.77, P <;0.00001为PFS)。结论与TKI相比,satezo /Bev具有更好的生存结局和安全性。然而,对于非病毒性HCC患者,lenvatinib可能是一个更合适的选择。

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a significant clinical problem. Current detection methods are often delayed. Real-time analysis of electronic medical records (EMRs) using a large language model (LLM) could enable earlier surveillance.
Objective
To evaluate the technical feasibility of an LLM-powered system for real-time DILI identification assessment by extracting medication information from unstructured clinical notes.
Methods
We developed a system using a large language model (LLM) to extract medication lists from clinical text. Prompts were iteratively refined for optimal performance. We integrated DILI risk data from DILIrank and LiverTox, utilizing LLM and algorithmic matching to link extracted medications to database entries. We utilized the RxNORM database and manual mistyped medication, as well as the NHANES database for a structured medication list, to verify accurate results.
Results
Using 30 entries each from NHANES, RxNORM, and real-world cases, the LLM-based medication extraction achieved a precision of 0.96, recall of 0.97, and an F1-score of 0.97%. For NHANES data, no errors were found. Applying to real-world cases and mistyped dataset, the LLM-based extraction fared acceptably, with F1-scores of 0.94 and 0.97, respectively. The majority of error are due to trade name and combined medication names.
Conclusion
This study demonstrates the potential of LLMs for accurate medication extraction from clinical notes, a crucial step towards real-time DILI risk assessment. However, the system requires further development and clinical validation before implementation. Future work will focus on matching methods, clinical validation, EMR integration, and development of an agentic AI to triage future DILI risk.
药物性肝损伤(DILI)是一个重要的临床问题。目前的检测方法往往是滞后的。使用大型语言模型(LLM)对电子医疗记录(emr)进行实时分析可以实现早期监测。目的探讨基于llm的从非结构化临床记录中提取药物信息的DILI实时识别评估系统的技术可行性。方法采用大语言模型(large language model, LLM)开发了一个从临床文献中提取药物清单的系统。提示被迭代地改进以获得最佳性能。我们整合了DILIrank和LiverTox的DILI风险数据,利用LLM和算法匹配将提取的药物与数据库条目联系起来。我们使用RxNORM数据库和手动输入错误的药物,以及NHANES数据库的结构化药物列表来验证准确的结果。结果采用NHANES、RxNORM和真实案例各30个条目,基于llm的药物提取精度为0.96,召回率为0.97,f1得分为0.97%。对于NHANES数据,没有发现错误。应用于真实案例和输入错误的数据集,基于llm的提取效果可以接受,f1得分分别为0.94和0.97。大多数错误是由于商品名称和组合药物名称。结论本研究证明了LLMs从临床记录中准确提取药物的潜力,这是实时评估DILI风险的关键一步。然而,该系统在实施前需要进一步开发和临床验证。未来的工作将集中在匹配方法、临床验证、电子病历整合和开发代理人工智能来分类未来DILI风险。
