Hepatic flares promote rapid decline of serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in patients with HBsAg seroclearance: A long‐term follow‐up study

Hepatology Research, 2016
Serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) seroclearance is one of the ultimate goals of management of chronic hepatitis B. We investigated the kinetics of serum HBsAg before HBsAg seroclearance in patients with chronic hepatitis B.

Meta‐Analysis: High anti‐HBs Titers are Associated with Significantly Reduced Risk of Hepatitis B Virus Reactivation During Rituximab Treatment

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis demonstrates a significantly lower risk for HBV reactivation on rituximab if anti‐HBs is > 100 iU/L (3.5%, CI: 1.8%–6.9%) vs. anti‐HBs between 10 and 100 iU/L (13.8%, CI: 8.8%–20.8%) and anti‐HBs negative (27.3%, CI: 20.0%–36.0%). Thus, if anti‐HBs titer is > 10 iU/L, monitoring could be considered.

Impact of Evolving Evidence on Pharmacological Therapy for Alcohol‐Associated Hepatitis in Alberta: A Population‐Based Study of Practice Trends and MELD‐Stratified Effectiveness of Corticosteroids

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In this population‐based study in Alberta, Canada, evidence from RCTs led to a rapid reversal in pentoxifylline use, prior to formal guideline updates. Real‐world data support a modest short‐term benefit of CS and illustrate the potential of target trial emulation to assess treatment effectiveness in specific groups of patients. ABSTRACT Background and

Population‐based cohort validation and replication reveals limited generalizability of cluster‐based MASLD subtypes

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims MASLD, defined as a steatotic liver disease in the presence of one or more cardiometabolic risk factors and the absence of harmful alcohol intake, exhibits substantial heterogeneity complicating risk stratification. A prior clustering model proposed liver‐specific and cardiometabolic subtypes, yet its generalizability and prognostic ...

Fifteen years of clinical liver transplantation [PDF]

, 1979
Liver transplantation in humans was first attempted more than 15 yr ago. The 1-yr survival has slowly improved until it has now reached about 50%. In our experience, 46 patients have lived for at least 1 yr, with the longest survival being 9 yr. The high
