  2. Fatty liver disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty_liver_disease

    In this stage, liver cells are filled with multiple fat droplets that do not displace the centrally located nucleus. In the late stages, the size of the vacuoles increases, pushing the nucleus to the periphery of the cell, giving a characteristic signet ring appearance (macrovesicular fatty change). These vesicles are well-delineated and ...

  3. Steatohepatitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steatohepatitis

    Steatohepatitis is a type of fatty liver disease, characterized by inflammation of the liver with concurrent fat accumulation in liver. Mere deposition of fat in the liver is termed steatosis, and together these constitute fatty liver changes.

  4. Steatosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steatosis

    Steatosis, also called fatty change, is abnormal retention of fat within a cell or organ. [1] Steatosis most often affects the liver – the primary organ of lipid metabolism – where the condition is commonly referred to as fatty liver disease. Steatosis can also occur in other organs, including the kidneys, heart, and muscle. [2]

    G (1–4): the grade of the cancer cells (i.e. they are "low grade" if they appear similar to normal cells, and "high grade" if they appear poorly differentiated) S (0–3): elevation of serum tumor markers; R (0–2): the completeness of the operation (resection-boundaries free of cancer cells or not) Pn (0–1): invasion into adjunct nerves

  6. Proliferative index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proliferative_index

    Cells in the mitotic phase are identified by the typical appearance of their chromosomes in the cell during the mitotic phase of the cell cycle. [4] Usually the number of mitotic figures is expressed as the total number in a defined number of high power fields, such as 10 mitoses in 10 high power fields.

  7. Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_dysfunction...

    Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), previously known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), [a] is a type of chronic liver disease.This condition is diagnosed when there is excessive fat build-up in the liver (hepatic steatosis), and at least one metabolic risk factor.

  8. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumor-infiltrating_lymphocytes

    The cells are activated and grown prior to transfusion into the recipient (tumor bearer). In Adoptive T cell transfer therapy, TILs are expanded ex vivo from surgically resected tumors that have been cut into small fragments or from single cell suspensions isolated from the tumor fragments. Multiple individual cultures are established, grown ...

  9. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_lymphocytic_leukemia

    Treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemias can often be postponed until after the end of the pregnancy. If treatment is necessary, then giving chemotherapy during the second or third trimesters is less likely to result in pregnancy loss or birth defects than treatment during the first trimester. [100]
