Plasma Adsorption Perfusion (BR‐350) Versus Open Albumin Dialysis (OPAL) for Hyperbilirubinemia in Hepatic Failure in Cirrhotic Patients

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
The therapy with PAP using BR‐350 resulted in a significant decrease of bilirubin concentrations. The median relative reduction of bilirubin was comparable between PAP and OPAL (47% vs. 40%, p = 0.29). The crossover comparison between the single session of PAP using BR‐350 and OPAL revealed similar relative reduction rates of bilirubin.

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.
