LivQ-box® Parameters in the Diagnosis of Liver Inflammation
To evaluate the correlation between LivQ-box® parameters carried by iLivTouch and liver inflammation in patients with NAFLD, as well as the diagnostic value of liver inflammation of different severity levels.
Changes in the Lipidomic, Immunological and miRNA Profile in Patients Undergoing a Dietary Program or Bariatric Surgery
Obesity is a chronic disease characterized phenotypically by an increase in body weight (BMI\>30 kg/m2) and by a series of associated pathologies, such as hypertension, diabetes, hepatic steatosis. The association of these pathologies compromises the patient's survival and quality of life. The multifactorial origin of obesity makes its etiopathology difficult …
PredIcting SterOid DepeNdEnt LivEr InjuRy with Polyreactive Immunoglobulin G
The investigators identified polyreactive immunoglobulin G (pIgG) in adults (published in Hepatology: https://doi.org/10.1002/hep.32134) and children (in preparation). Quantification of these pIgG using a "home-made" ELISA facilitates the diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) as compared to non-AIH liver diseases and healthy controls. Positivity for pIgG was independent from ANA/SMA positivity and …
Microbiome and Sarcopenia in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis
Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) occurs in 65-90% of patients with liver cirrhosis. Severity of malnutrition correlates with progression of liver disease and leads to sarcopenia in 30-70% of cirrhotic patients. Malnutrition and sarcopenia are associated with an increased risk of complications and mortality. In cirrhosis the gut microbiome is altered leading …
Endoscopic Ultrasound Shear Wave Elastography Study
This study shall be a prospective, multicenter, single arm, consecutive, interventional study conducted in a post-market setting using commercially available devices. Consecutive, eligible patients with clinical suspicion of MASLD or MASH reporting for an endoscopic ultrasound and liver biopsy for evaluation of fibrosis will be enrolled. EUS Shear Wave Elastography …
Quantitative Ultrasound(DeepUSFF) vs MRI-PDFF for Liver Fat Assessment in MASLD
This multicenter prospective study aims to evaluate the correlation between quantitative ultrasound fat fraction (USFF) and MRI-PDFF (Proton Density Fat Fraction) for liver fat quantification in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). The study will compare the diagnostic accuracy of quantitative ultrasound imaging against MRI-PDFF as the reference …
A Study of SIPLIZUMAB in AILD and LT Patients
There is a significant unmet need for safe and effective therapeutic approaches to prevent immune-mediated graft injury and its complications in liver transplant (LT) recipients with autoimmune liver disease (AILD) including autoimmune hepatitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis. Siplizumab is an anti-cluster of differentiation 2 (CD2) monoclonal antibody that has demonstrated …
Deep Phenotyping of Peripheral Blood Cells and Circulating Factors in Metabolic Diseases
The goal of this cross-sectional observational study is to to perform a thorough characterization of the quantitative and qualitative differences in peripheral blood cells, and circulating factors (proteins, metabolites, lipids, extracellular vesicles) in different stages of several metabolic diseases (diabetes, obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) that share common pathophysiological mechanisms …
Effect of Amino Acids on Hepatic Fat Content in Adolescents (AMINOS Study)
Participants 13-18 years of age with extra fat stored in the liver will be randomly assigned to a protein supplement or placebo "fake supplement" for 2 months to see if the participants who get the protein supplement have less fat in the liver compared to participants who were in the …
Vienna Hypothermic Oxygenated Machine Perfusion Study
In this observational cohort study data on all patients undergoing liver transplantation after hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion at Medical University of Vienna will be prospectively recorded. Investigation of short- and long-term outcome in this cohort will be conducted.
