Tissue Models for Liver Disease
The human immune response to bacterial and viral local and systemic infection are fairly well understood, but we lack details on the earliest phases. Better knowledge of these events would be important for the prevention and treatment of severe bacterial or viral disease. From models of infection, we have data …
Major Hepatectomy and Vascular Clamping
A major hepatectomy consists of the resection of 3 or more liver segments. Its indications are mainly secondary malignant lesions, then primary malignant lesions, benign lesions and septic resections. Around a hundred major hepatectomies are carried out every year in Strasbourg. This surgery is burdened by 4.5% mortality at day …
Development of a Cognitive Tool for Rapid and Reliable Screening of Minimal Hepatic Encephalopathy: Pilot Study
The aim of this project is to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of a cognitive test toward the presence of minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE). MHE is a neurological complication due to hepatic dysfunction and/or the presence of porto-systemic shunts defined by the presence of neurocognitive impairments (NI). Other factors of …
Design and Implementation of the Pediatric Liver Transplantation Biobank
The purpose of the pediatric liver transplant biobank is to systematically collect clinical specimens from pediatric end-stage liver disease. It is expected to contribute to the research and development of paediatric end-stage liver disease in the future.
Early Liver Disease Breath Detection
The Early Liver Disease Breath Detection Study is a cross-sectional study where subjects with advanced liver fibrosis will ingest a mixture of food-grade compounds (known as Exogenous Volatile Organic Compound or EVOCs) in the form of an emulsion and then provide multiple breath samples. These EVOCs can be measured on …
Liver Disease, Myocardial Fibrosis and Collaterals in the Adult Fontan Patient a Metabolomics and Proteomics Approach
Out objective is to identify the mechanisms that promote hepatic and myocardial fibrosis, and collateral vessel formation in patients with complex congenital heart disease and Fontan circulation.
Natural History of Advanced Chronic Liver Diseases
This is a retrospective-prospective registry cohort study. Patients with advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD) will be prospectively invited to this study. The study follow-up duration will be 10 years. The primary outcome is incident hepatic events and liver-related mortality. Participants will undergo annual transient elastography examination.
Perioperative Energy Expenditure in Major Liver Resection
Rationale: Complication rates after major liver resections remain as high as 43%. Many initiatives have been taken to reduce postoperative morbidity. As such, prehabilitation programmes are increasingly used for patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. Improvement of aerobic fitness has been proven to reduce complication rates, especially in high-risk patients (those …
Vienna Vascular Liver Disease Study
The aim of this Register Trial is to systematically study the epidemiology, risk factors, liver function as well prognosis of patients with vascular liver diseases. Furthermore, important clinical parameters will be assessed in order to evaluate patients' coagulation status and in order to develop new biomarkers derived from blood, urine, …
Polycystic Liver Disease Registry (UK)
Multicentre, observational registry studying the natural course of polycystic liver disease.
