Recompensation of Cirrhosis: A New Treatment‐Related Disease State

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This perspective article conceptualizes recompensation of cirrhosis as a distinct treatment‐related disease state rather than mere transient clinical improvement after etiology‐directed therapy, and further proposes a four‐state classification including compensated cirrhosis, stable recompensation, unstable recompensation, and persistent decompensation

Prognostic significance of prior alcohol use disorder in patients with presumed metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease: A large multi‐center cohort study

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Alcohol use disorder (AUD) follows a chronic, relapsing course but is often overlooked when alcohol consumption is minimal at the time of evaluation. We aimed to assess the prognostic impact of a prior AUD diagnosis on liver‐related outcomes in patients with presumed metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (

Validation of the Baveno Endoscopy Avoidance Criteria in Japanese Patients With Chronic Liver Disease: A Real‐World Cohort Study

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Many patients with chronic liver disease can safely avoid unnecessary screening endoscopy using the Baveno VII criteria. We developed a simple three‐factor score to identify patients at high risk of serious esophageal varices. Using both approaches together may improve the efficiency and safety of endoscopic screening.

Noninvasive diagnosis of esophageal varices: is it feasible?

, 2006
The possibility of identifying cirrhotic patients with esophageal varices by noninvasive means is attractive, because it would allow for the restriction of the performance of screening endoscopy to patients at high risk of having varices. Over the years,

On‐Treatment Reassessment of Type IV Collagen 7S and M2BPGi‐Qt Improves Long‐Term Hepatocellular Carcinoma Risk Stratification in Chronic Hepatitis B

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
One‐year reassessment of type IV collagen 7S, supported by quantitative M2BPGi‐Qt assessment, helped refine long‐term hepatocellular carcinoma risk stratification in patients with chronic hepatitis B receiving nucleos(t)ide analogue therapy. On‐treatment 4COL7S emerged as a novel marker of residual fibrosis‐related HCC risk.
