A preliminary experience of plasma exchange in liver failure
INTRODUCTION: Plasma exchange (PLEX) is one of the experimental modalities of treatment for liver failure. We report our experience of PLEX in patients with acute-(ALF) or acute-on-chronic (ACLF) liver failure.

Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure in Cirrhosis [PDF]
Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a syndrome that develops in patients with acutely decompensated chronic liver disease. It is characterised by high 28-day mortality, the presence of one or more organ failures (OFs) and a variable but severe grade of systemic inflammation.

Neutrophilia is more predictive than increased white blood cell counts for short-term mortality after liver transplantation in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure [PDF]
Background Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a life-threatening disease that requires urgent liver transplantation (LT). Accurate identification of high-risk patients is essential for predicting post-LT survival.

Introduction and aim: Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) manifests as a spectrum of clinical presentations that carries morbidity and mortality. Patients with chronic liver disease (CLD), particularly hospitalized, are at high risk for developing DILI.

Background: The mortality rate in patients with acute liver failure (ALF) and acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) is still very high. Currently, liver support systems are an alternative therapy in bridging liver transplantation.

Acute-On-Chronic Liver Failure [PDF]
The Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) has been the single best predictor of outcome of the progression of cirrhosis. Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) has been proposed as an alternative path in the natural history of cirrhosis. ACLF occurs in patients with chronic liver disease and is characterized by a precipitating event, resulting in ...
