Novel metabolites to improve glomerular filtration rate estimation
Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2023 Introduction: The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is crucial for chronic kidney disease (CKD) diagnosis and therapy. Various studies have sought to recognize ideal endogenous markers to improve the estimated GFR (eGFR) for clinical practice.

Current status of liver transplantation for non‐B non‐C liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma
Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 42-52, January 2023., 2023 Recently, the cases of LT for non‐B non‐C cirrhosis and HCC have been increasing in Japan as well as worldwide. Perioperative management of non‐B non‐C liver disease is problematic due to various risk factors, including alcohol consumption and metabolic syndrome‐related risks, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus.
