Oral Health and Wilson's Disease: SOMAWI
Patients with Wilson disease have poorer dental and periodontal health and a have lower oral quality of life than control patients. Patients with a neurological form would also more frequently present limitations in the function of the masticatory apparatus. Systemic treatments for Wilson disease are associated with lesions of the …
Natural History of Wilson Disease
The purpose of the registry/repository is to provide a mechanism to store data and specimens to support the conduct of future research about Wilson disease (WD). The overall aim is to determine the optimal testing for diagnosis and parameters for monitoring treatment of WD that will aid product utilization and …
Skeletal Muscle Parameters of Liver Cirrhosis in Non-invasive Imaging and Outcome
The principal aim of this study is to analyse L3-SMI (skeletal muscle index) in a cohort of patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis and TIPS (transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt), and compare the prognostic power with TPMT (transverse psoas muscle thickness). Furthermore, the role of myosteatosis, determined in CT by L3-SMI, MRI …
Natural Course and Prognosis of Hospitalized Patients With Cirrhosis
The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the natural course and prognosis of hospitalized patients with liver cirrhosis.
Cirrhosis, Effects of TRAnsplantation and Diabetes
This observational study is aimed at assessing insulin secretion and sensitivity by the use of a mathematical modeling from oral glucose tolerance test in subjects with liver cirrhosis undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), before and at various time points after OLT.
Verification of Risk Factors of Thrombohemorrhagic Complications in Recipients After Related Liver Transplantation
The aim of the study is to improve the results of related transplantation of the right liver lobe by verifying the general predictors of the development of hemostatic system disorders and optimizing a comprehensive program for thrombohemorrhagic complications preventing.
Exploratory Analysis of Enhanced Liver Function (ELF) Test to Detect Early Fatty Liver in High Risk Population
In this initial investigator-initiated retrospective study, aim to analyze the enhanced liver fibrosis (ELF) scores in this high-risk population for NAFLD/nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH)-related fibrosis. Study define 'high-risk' to include metabolic syndrome, which can be further defined by an atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) score >7.5, any diagnosis of hyperlipidemia, history of coronary …
Effect of NNRTI or INSTI on Nonalcoholic Steatosis in HIV/AIDS Patients
Identifying patients at risk of NAFLD(Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease), especially severe disease with NASH(nonalcoholic steatohepatitis) and fibrosis, is critical. Prevalence of NAFLD in PLWH(People Living With HIV) evaluated by different imaging techniques including US (ultrasonography), elastography, CT(computed tomography ), and magnetic resonance varies from 13% to 58.6% in all published …
Functional Assessment in Liver Transplantation
In order to ensure the equity of the liver allocation process, it is important to create objective, scientifically validated markers of frailty in patients with end-stage liver disease that accurately predict patient outcomes. Many measures have been developed to assess this clinical state in elderly patients, but none have been …
Selection Protocol for Liver Transplantation in Patients Aged Over 70 Years
Increased life expectancy and aging population has led to a trend of increasing liver transplant (LT) volume in the elderly. Nowadays, advanced age is not considered an absolute contraindication for LT but elderly LT candidates typically have an age-associated burden of comorbid conditions that can pose several clinical challenges during …
