Study of Risk Factors and Image Findings of Isolated Abdominal Incidentally Detected Aortic Dissection

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 429-435, March/April 2025.
We detect the risk factors and image characteristics of incidentally detected IAAD. Independent risk factors of IAAD included fatty liver and smoking. In the ultrasound findings of IAAD, an intimal flap was frequently observed. In the CT scan, displacement of intimal calcifications was frequently observed. For suspected IAAD, the abdominal aorta should

Chronic Liver Disease: Assessing Inflammation and Fibrosis Using Three‐Dimensional MR Elastography With Same‐Day Biopsy in a Prospective Cohort

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Three‐dimensional (3D) MR elastography (MRE) derives viscoelastic parameters that may reflect inflammation, but their frequency dependence and the influence of steatosis on inflammation grading and fibrosis staging remain unclear. Purpose To investigate 3D multifrequency MRE for assessing hepatic inflammation, fibrosis stage across ...

Association between specialized nutrition support and 90‐day mortality relative to standard of care in malnourished adults with decompensated cirrhosis: A retrospective cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Malnutrition is common among patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis and linked to poor prognosis. Guidelines recommend intensified nutrition support e.g. parenteral nutrition, but evidence regarding safety and effectiveness is scarce. We aimed to investigate the impact of nutrition support, specifically parenteral nutrition, on

Preliminary evidence of improved liver biomarkers in adolescents with obesity and suspected metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease treated with semaglutide: A case series

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects 30%–40% of youth with obesity and lacks approved pharmacologic therapies. In this single‐center retrospective case series at a tertiary care safety‐net children's hospital, we evaluated five adolescents (mean age: 17.0 years; 100% Hispanic; 60% male; mean body mass index:

Liver stiffness in patients with Shwachman‐Diamond syndrome

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This case series aims to describe whether transient elastography (TE) as a marker of liver stiffness is associated with clinically important liver disease in children and young adults with Shwachman‐Diamond Syndrome (SDS). Methods All patients ≤25 years of age with genetically confirmed SDS seen in the Pediatric Gastroenterology ...
