Excessive alcohol consumption is a major public health problem, particularly in France. It is the leading cause of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Among subjects with heavy alcohol consumption, the majority of patients develop fatty liver overload (steatosis), but only 10 to 35% develop acute alcoholic hepatitis (AAH) and 8 to …
Hepatitis D is by far the most severe form of chronic viral hepatitis, frequently leading to liver failure, hepatocellular carcinoma and death. Hepatitis D is caused by coinfection Hepatitis D is caused by co-infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis D virus (HDV). This multicenter cohort should enable a …
The purpose of this study is to identify factors that predict the development of decompensation, acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) and death in patients with liver cirrhosis. Clinical data will be retrieved from existing hospital records. This information may help doctors to identify patients with cirrhosis who are at risk of …
The first 12 months after liver transplantation (LT) are decisive in posttransplant outcome, as almost half of deaths and two thirds of graft loss requiring retransplant occur in the first year after LT. Since delaying retransplantation in those patients that experience an unfavorable posttransplant course directly impacts their outcome, timely …
Discarded perfusate samples will be collected from donors after circulatory death (DCD) or donors after brain death (DBD) organs during the machine perfusion period prior to transplantation by the study team. FMN will be measured as is standard of care for all machine perfusion liver transplant cases at Cleveland Clinic. …
Coagulation system in cirrhotics patients is a fragile state , which is rebalanced hemostasis. Standard tests (INR/aPTT) stop measuring at first stage of coagulation ,when the clot first form. VETs measure the whole process such as ROTEM, TEG and comparing these two tests to assess for transfusion of blood products …

This prospective, analytic observational study will investigate alcohol recidivism in patients with alcoholic liver disease. All adult subjects presenting with alcoholic liver disease are considered for inclusion. Subjects able to give consent are included.
Hepatic steatosis may cause inflammation and fibrosis within the liver potentially leading to end-stage liver disease cirrhosis, liver failure and death. The condition is associated with several other chronic liver diseases like autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, hereditary hemochromatosis and alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency and may also develop secondary …
This proposal addresses a critical gap in our understanding of the impact of household food insecurity (FI) on pediatric metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) severity. There is evidence that children in families that do not have the ability to provide consistently healthy and high-quality foods, such as fruits and …
