MARS therapy, the bridging to liver retransplantation-Three cases from the Hungarian liver transplant program [PDF]

, 2014
Besides orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) there is no long-term and effective replacement therapy for severe liver failure. Artificial extracorporeal liver supply devices are able to reduce blood toxin levels, but do not replace any synthetic ...

Development and validation of a dynamic survival prediction model for patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure

JHEP Reports, 2021
Background & Aims: Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is usually associated with a precipitating event and results in the failure of other organ systems and high short-term mortality. Current prediction models fail to adequately estimate prognosis

Determination of HMGB1 in hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure patients with acute kidney injury: Early prediction and prognostic implications

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication in patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF) and is associated with high rates of mortality. We aimed to estimate serum high mobility group protein 1

Death and Liver Transplantation within Two Years of Onset of Drug-Induced Liver Injury [PDF]

, 2017
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is an important cause of death and indication for liver transplantation (fatality). The role of DILI in these fatalities ispoorly characterized particularly when fatalities occur > 26 weeks after DILI onset.

Liver transplantation for alcoholic cirrhosis: Long term follow-up and impact of disease recurrence [PDF]

, 2001
Background. Alcoholic liver disease has emerged as a leading indication for hepatic transplantation, although it is a controversial use of resources. We aimed to examine all aspects of liver transplantation associated with alcohol abuse.

Liver Transplantation for Acute on Chronic Liver Failure [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hepatology, 2017
Acute-on chronic liver failure (ACLF) is defined as acute insult on previous liver disease that causes sudden worsening of liver functions.ACLF is characterized by high incidence of organ failure and prognosis is remarkably worse than patients with cirrhosis. Incidence of organ failures is very high despite best medical care and timely liver transplant
