Endoscopic Ultrasound Shear Wave Elastography in Patients With Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
The goal of this observation study is to assess whether endoscopic ultrasound shear wave elastography (EUS-SWE) may be a useful tool for liver fibrosis screening in patients with elevated body mass index and non alcoholic fatty liver disease as compared to other non-invasive screening modalities, which have traditionally had less …
MRI Biomarkers in as Predictor of Clinical Endpoints in Pediatric Autoimmune Liver Disease
Autoimmune liver diseases (AILD), which include Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) and Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH) are a common etiological factor for chronic liver disease among adolescents. This is a longitudinal study to identify surrogate endpoints with an accurate predictive value for the progression of hepatobiliary damage in subjects with pediatric onset …
Fontan Associated Liver Disease and the Evaluation of Biomarkers for Disease Severity Assessment
Background In Fontan Associated Liver Disease (FALD), congestion of blood in the liver causes cirrhosis. This condition can cause death. Researchers want to understand what triggers this process and find new treatments for it. Objective To understand how long-term congestion of blood in the liver causes liver scarring that eventually …
Increased Risk of Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Low Birth Weight Individuals
The investigators recently demonstrated a increase in liver fat in early middle-aged LBW compared to normal birth weight (NBW) men, and 20% of the LBW - but none of the normal birth weight (NBW) - men had previously unknown non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Here the investigators will further examine …
Direct Portal Pressure Measurement Via Endoscopic Ultrasound in Advanced Chronic Liver Disease (EVADIPP)
A minimally invasive procedure to directly assess portal pressure gradient under endoscopic ultrasound guidance (EUS-PPG) has become available and initial data have proved the technique to be safe. Aims of our proposal are: (i) to assess performance of EUS-PPG as compared to HVPG in evaluating hemodynamic response to non selective …
Role of Regulatory B Cells in the Pathogenesis of Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease
To evaluate the role of regulatory B cells in the pathogenesis of metabolic associated fatty liver disease patients.
Evaluation of Chronic Liver Disease Condition and Transplant Prognosis Assisted by Eye Biological Parameters
This study investigates the correlation between ocular biological characteristics and overall conditions before and after liver transplantation by collecting ocular biological characteristics. Explore whether it is possible to construct a clinical prediction model for liver transplantation by incorporating ocular biometric features, in order to optimize disease management before and after …
Multifrequency MRE for Assessing Chronic Hepatic Disease
To construct a novel, non-invasive, accurate, and convenient method to achieve the degree of liver damage is an important general problem in the management of patients with chronic liver disease. The investigators would like to develop non invasive advanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) techniques (MR elastography, MRI-PDFF) to assess the …
Semaglutide Effectiveness in Patients With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Fatty Liver Disease in the Real World Practice
This real-world clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of semaglutide (target dose is 2.4 mg/week) over 154 weeks (3 years) prescribed to the patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and liver fibrosis (stages 0-4) as a part of routine clinical practice. MAFLD is a common liver condition linked to …
An Observational Study of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Patients With Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are currently of unknown etiology and incurable. In recent years, the incidence of IBD has increased dramatically in China, and it will become a common disease of digestive system in China. Mesenteric adipose tissue hyperplasia indicates disease activity in IBD …
