Examine the association of chronic liver diseases (including hepatitis B, hepatitis C, alcoholic liver disease, fatty liver, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma) with other systemic diseases by retrospectively analyzing the data from the Hospital Database of Buddhist Tzu Chi Medical Foundation.
The purpose of establishing a biorepository is to provide high quality specimens (serum, plasma, buffy coat and liver tissue) for future researchers who are studying the effects that fatty liver and viral diseases have on the liver.
In this study, we aim to identify gut microbiomes specific to patients with chronic refractory liver disease and to conduct a gut-liver axis study on the pathogenesis and disease progression.
This is an observational study that will explore the hypothesis that by combining data from patients with liver disease with novel blood biomarkers, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis and faecal microbiome analysis. The Investigators will improve diagnosis of liver fibrosis compared to the current available diagnostic tools.
The Autoimmune Liver disease Network for Kids (A-LiNK) is a multi-institutional group with the mission to deliver the best care to kids with pediatric autoimmune liver disease (AILD). This study will establish a shared clinical registry and a learning health network for the participating sites focusing on collecting and transmitting …

Liver is an important organ in maintaining energy homeostasis. Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), formerly known as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is the most common chronic liver disease locally and globally. MASLD and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are closely related with alarmingly high prevalence of MASLD in …
The purpose of this study is to create a resource that will advance research that is focused on discovery of novel therapies, risk stratification, and aggressive interventions for those at highest risk for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). To achieve this, we will generate a biobank of liver tissue collected …
