Baseline Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Is Independently Associated With 90-Day Transplant-Free Mortality in Patients With Cirrhosis

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021
Background: Patients with cirrhosis have an increased risk of short-term mortality, however, few studies quantify the association between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and 90-day transplant-free mortality in cirrhotic patients.Methods: We ...

Circulating microRNAs Reveal Time Course of Organ Injury in a Porcine Model of Acetaminophen-Induced Acute Liver Failure [PDF]

, 2015
Acute liver failure is a rare but catastrophic condition which can progress rapidly to multi-organ failure. Studies investigating the onset of individual organ injury such as the liver, kidneys and brain during the evolution of acute liver failure, are ...

Psoas Muscle Index Can Be Used to Predict Long-Term Mortality in Young Male Patients With Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
ObjectiveThe use of psoas muscle index (PMI) in acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) has not been reported, and the aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of PMI for the prognosis of patients with ACLF.MethodsIn this study, male ACLF ...

The hepatoadrenal syndrome: A common yet unrecognized clinical condition [PDF]

, 2005
Objective: Adrenal failure is common in critically ill patients, particularly those with sepsis. As liver failure and sepsis are both associated with increased circulating levels of endotoxin and proinflammatory mediators and reduced levels of apoprotein-

Acute Liver Failure [PDF]

Clinical Medicine, 2015
Acute liver failure is a rare but potentially fatal disease. Adult definition of fulminant hepatic failure, which includes the development of hepatic necrosis and encephalopathy within 8 weeks of onset of liver disease does not apply to acute liver failure in children particularly if secondary to autoimmune or metabolic liver disease.

Intestinal transplantation in children under FK 506 immunosuppression [PDF]

, 1993
Intestinal transplantation, solitary (n = 3) or in combination with the liver (n = 7), was performed in 10 pediatric patients with intestinal failure. The liver was only replaced if there was liver failure and portal hypertension.

Acute Liver Failure [PDF]

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1993
Acute liver failure (ALF) (sometimes referred to as fulminant hepatic failure) is a clinical syndrome from a variety of causes resulting from rapid loss in hepatocyte function, typically associated with coagulopathy and encephalopathy in a patient without preexisting liver disease or cirrhosis. Cerebral edema is a cardinal feature and may produce uncal
