Researchers are assessing the prevalence of Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) in the population and assembling a well-characterized cohort of adults with NAFLD and NASH to validate models of NAFLD diagnosis and determine long-term outcomes.
NAFLD, closely linked to overweight and insulin resistance, has reached 25% prevalence worldwide. Advanced liver fibrosis(ALF) must be accurately diagnosed in NAFLD because it defines a subgroup of patients with impaired prognosis, and these patients need a specific management to prevent the occurrence of liver-related complication. Relatively few NAFLD patients …
This will be a prospective cohort study of patients with liver disease. Subjects will undergo geriatric assessments of frailty, functional status, and disability using functional status measures at baseline and at every clinic visit in the pre-transplant setting. Subjects will also answer questions regarding quality of life, personality, and/or cognitive …
Chronic liver disease (CLD) is a major cause of global mortality and morbidity . CLD patients are at an increased risk of developing liver fibrosis (formation of scar tissue), cirrhosis and liver failure and are at significant risk to develop primary liver cancer. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) represents a …
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) affects an estimated 292 million people, and causes approximately 800,000 people deaths per year from liver-related complications including cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, remaining a major global public health issue.Meanwhile, with the improvement of living standards and changes in lifestyle and dietary habits, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease …
The aim of this study is to determine the clinical spectrum and natural progression of Wilson's Disease in a prospective multicenter natural history study, to assess the clinical, genetic, epigenetic features and biomarkers of patients with Wilson's Disease to optimize clinical management.
Longitudinal, observational, non-interventional, standard of care Registry. Data will be collected from the routinely scheduled WD clinic visits at approximately 6-12 month intervals. At enrolment, in addition to data from the clinic visit, retrospective data will be collected from the diagnostic evaluation and any relevant past medical history and a …
This registry concerns adults and children with Wilson's disease. The collection of a large amount of data will allow a better understanding of the epidemiology of this rare disease, in particular the age of onset according to the hepatic or hepato-neurological forms, but also the geographical distribution of patients consulting …
The investigators aimed to identify factors associated with symptoms and features of Wilson disease from a large cohort during long-term follow-up
The non-invasive evaluation of liver steatosis and fibrosis with FibroScan is a routinely procedure in clinical practice for people with obesity. However, there are still considerable uncertainties regarding the potential influence of confounding factors and the optimal application of cut-off values for obesity. The goal of this observational study is …
