Abstract Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary hepatic malignancy of adults. One of the established treatment procedures performed worldwide for HCC is transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). By using conventional angiography in TACE, we can detect and identify the vascular anatomy of the liver through obtaining 2D images. Recently C-arm cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is introduced for obtaining cross-sectional and three-dimensional (3D) images for better visualization of small tumors and their feeding arteries. Results The number of detected focal lesions by angiography was 51 compared to 87 focal lesion detected by CBCT; of those, 45 and 77 were active lesions by both procedures respectively. For lesions, less than 1 cm CBCT detected 23 lesions while angiography detected only one lesion. Angiography detected 87 feeding arterial branch while cone beam CT-HA detected 130 branches to the same number of target lesion. Feeder tractability and confidence were better by CBCT. Conclusion CBCT is superior to angiography in tumor detectability, detection of lesions less than 1 cm, feeder detection, and feeder traction; however, conventional angiography and DSA are irreplaceable. Thus, combination of CBCT with angiography during TACE produces better results and less complication.

Abstract This paper focuses on the popularity and awareness of keywords in Google Trends data related to entrepreneurship of women in a global and cross-regional setting by using market basket analysis. Google Trends is one of the digital data platforms that provides a time series index of the volume of queries users enter into Google in a given geographic area. It is the most popular tool for gathering any information, and it has been used in several topics. Market basket analysis indicates items that appear/used together and the frequency of these appearances. Such technique is appropriate in finding hidden associations between items, which is also crucial in assessing individuals’ thoughts on a specific topic. This study contributes to the literature in terms of being the first study to use market basket analysis on Google trends data in the context of women’s entrepreneurship finding hidden associations between items, which is crucial in assessing individuals’ thoughts on a specific topic. The results of the analysis are interpreted through the lens of genderresponsive strategies, equality, efficiency and social justice in different country and region contexts.
