Graphical abstract summarizing the study design, main results and key findings Abstract Background and Aims Fatty liver disease (FLD) has been associated with excess mortality. Screening for hepatic steatosis (HS) in patients with metabolic dysfunction is therefore recommended by several guidelines, despite a paucity of evidence on the clinical ...

TGF-β1 Induces the Dual Regulation of Hepatic Progenitor Cells with Both Anti- and Proliver Fibrosis
Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) plays a central role in hepatic progenitor cells- (HPCs-) mediated liver repair and fibrosis. However, different effects of TGF-β1 on progenitor cells have not been described.

Alcohol consumption and liver cirrhosis mortality: New evidence from a panel data analysis for sixteen European countries [PDF]
Empirical evidence gives strong support to a close association between liver cirrhosis mortality and the intake of alcohol and most often a log-linear relationship is assumed in the econometric modeling.

HCC patients with low preoperative TIBC levels experienced significantly more frequent post‐hepatectomy complications. Furthermore, these patients were significantly correlated with worse survival. Preoperative serum TIBC levels may be a novel surrogate marker of postoperative complications and long‐term survival after hepatectomy.

Emergency cholecystectomy was evaluated in patients with acute cholecystitis classified as non‐recommended for surgery by the Tokyo Guidelines 2018. Major postoperative complications, rather than mortality, better reflected operative risk. Physiological instability, particularly ASA‐PS ≥ 3 and shock status, identified high‐risk patients, suggesting ...

Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.

Ectopic Varices in Liver Cirrhosis
Large portosystemic venous collaterals pathways can be found in any part of the gastrointestinal tract, but when these veins are not in the gastroesophageal region they are denominated ectopic varices (EcV).
