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 …
Out of fear of bleeding, liver cirrhosis patients are often treated prophylactically with blood and coagulation products before minor interventions. The COUCH study will examine whether these patients benefit from a restrictive administration of coagulation products.
The purpose is to investigate the effect of faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) on complications, progression, and mortality of patients with liver cirrhosis. Further, the investigators want to examine the impact of FMT on the gut microbiota, gut barrier function, systemic inflammation, and immune function.
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.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of direct oral anticoagulant drugs (DOAC), specifically apixaban and edoxaban, in patients with Child A or B liver cirrhosis (LC). The primary objective of this study is to verify the ability of apixaban and edoxaban to decrease in …
This study is a Phase IIIb extension trial following the "A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter, Entecavir-based, Phase III Clinical Trial of Hydronidone Capsule in the Treatment of Liver Fibrosis Associated with Chronic Hepatitis B". The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and the safety of hydronidone …
The study will compare two forms of advice regarding physical activity for patients hospitalized with cirrhosis that are preparing for leaving the hospital. One arm consists of current standard of care: simple oral advice on exercise. One arm instead gives patients a structured but simple paper template on physical activity.
Assess whether a pre-interventional thrombelastography guided algorithm for assessing and correction of coagulation status in cirrhotic patients is safe and effective
Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) affects 30% of the Asian adult population and is emerging as one of the important leading causes of liver cancer and cirrhosis. Although a number of biomarkersmany have been developed for the assessment of liver fat and fibrosis, most existing studies were cross-sectional in …
Clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) is defined as HVPG \>10 mmHg. Patients with CSPH are at risk of developing esophageal varices and clinical decompensation (variceal bleeding, ascites, jaundice, encephalopathy), which mark the transition from compensated stage to a stage of the disease (decompensated) associated with higher mortality (1). HVPG is …
