Disparities Among Liver Transplant Patients
The purpose of this study is to inform healthcare interventions to reduce the disparities in liver transplant listing and in transplantation.
Health Literacy and Self-efficacy Expectations in Patients With Alcohol-related Liver Cirrhosis
The goal of this observational study is to quantify the health literacy and self-efficacy in people with alcohol-related liver cirrhosis.
Quantitative Ultrasound Techniques for Diagnosis of Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is the most common liver disease in Western countries, due in large part to its association with type 2 diabetes and obesity. The more advanced form of this disease is known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). If left untreated, NASH can evolve to cirrhosis, the late stage …
Use of Blood Biomarkers for the Early Diagnosis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)
The objective of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical utility of the combined assay of 3 biomarkers: α-FP, α-FP-L3 and DCP (simultaneously measured by µTASWakoTM i30 automated in vitro diagnostic system) in high-risk subjects to develop this neoplasm. In particular, it aims to: Evaluate the clinical utility of …
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 …
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 …
