Safety and Adequacy of Trans-jugular Liver Biopsy in Patients With Liver Disease: SAFE-TJLB Study
Liver biopsy is considered the gold standard for the evaluation of acute and chronic liver disorders. Liver biopsy provides information regarding diagnosis, disease progression, and response to therapy in patients with chronic liver diseases. Trans-jugular liver biopsy (TJLB) consists of obtaining liver tissue through a rigid cannula introduced into one …
Effectiveness of Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease/Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
Endoscopic weight loss procedures, also termed endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG), has been proposed as a non-surgical procedure for managing obesity and offers a standard weight loss approach. Realizing there is a knowledge gap in applying ESG to morbidly obese patients with NAFLD, the investigators propose studying the efficacy of weight …
Hyperpolarized Pyruvate (13C) Magnetic Resonance Imaging In Patients With Fatty Liver Disease
The recent development of dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) technology for hyperpolarized (HP) 13C imaging offers a promising new avenue for non-invasively accessing fundamental metabolic changes associated with the progression of fatty liver disease in vivo. The purpose of this pilot study is to optimize sequence parameters for hyperpolarized 13C …
Investigating HepQuant DuO Test as a Biomarker in Alcohol-related Liver Disease
This is a study to measure liver recovery in patients with recent alcohol-associated liver injury by assessing liver function and physiology using HepQuant DuO. The HepQuant DuO Test is a blood-based test that involves a drink of a natural compound, cholate, and 2 blood samples at 20 and 60 minutes. …
Prevalence of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients
Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) refers to a spectrum of disease characterized by the presence of more than 5% of steatosis in hepatocytes of individuals who consume little or no alcohol. It ranges from simple steatosis without evidence of inflammation, to the association of steatosis and inflammation with cellular necrosis, …
Secondary and Tertiary Digital Prevention of Non-alcoholic and Dysmetabolic Liver Disease
The prevalence of Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and its severe form, Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), is high and they are increasingly becoming major causes of cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and the need for liver transplantation. Due to the lack of noticeable symptoms during the early stages, the detection …
the Role of plin5 in the Development of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.
To further clarify the role of sequence polymorphism in patatin-like phospholipid domain containing protein 3 in the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
Thyroid Dysfunction and Its Association With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Fatty Liver Disease
This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction and its association with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease.
Risk and Protective Factors for Relapse to Alcohol Use in Patients With Liver Disease Undergoing Liver Transplantation
This is an observational, monocentric study, consisting of both a retrospective and a prospective component. The aim of the study is to identify risk and protective factors for alcohol relapse in patients with alcohol-related liver disease (ARLD) who have undergone orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT).
Characterization of Hepatopathy in Turner Syndrome: Analysis of Determinants
The present study is therefore aimed at investigating the prevalence of hepatic alterations (laboratory and imaging) in adult patients with TS and generating hypothesissto the possible etiopathogenetic factors most involved, as well as evaluating the correlation between biochemical and structural abnormalities. Thus, the study could provide relevant etiopathogenetic and prognostic …
