Disordered Bile Acid Metabolism in Alcohol‐Related Hepatitis

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Serum conjugated primary bile acids accumulate in alcohol‐related hepatitis due to downregulation of hepatocyte bile acid transporters. Hepatocyte growth factor is elevated in alcohol‐related hepatitis and downregulates BSEP expression. This detrimentally affects the hepatoprotective adaptive reduction in NTCP/increase in BSEP seen in cholestasis ...

Clinical Outcomes and Non-Invasive Testing in Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis With Cirrhosis: A Systematic Review. [PDF]

open access: yesLiver Int
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH) with cirrhosis lacks definitive treatments and poses an increasing healthcare burden globally. We undertook a systematic literature review (SLR) to better understand the disease burden in cirrhosis due to MASH.

Sarcopenia Is Associated With Mortality and Progression of Cirrhosis in Decompensated but Not Compensated Disease—A Multicentre Study

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In a retrospective cohort of 1,624 adults with cirrhosis, sarcopenia was independently associated with unplanned hospitalization, death, and cirrhosis progression (or death) in patients with decompensated disease. In compensated cirrhosis, sarcopenia was associated only with a higher risk of unplanned hospitalization.

Correlation of Bile Acid Dynamics to Bulevirtide Response and Disease Severity in Patients With Hepatitis D

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Bulevirtide increases bile acid levels in most patients; however, changes in bile acids do not predict virological response or adverse events, nor do they reflect treatment adherence. After discontinuation of bulevirtide, bile acid levels rapidly decline.

Competition and Post-Transplant Outcomes in Cadaveric Liver Transplantation under the MELD Scoring System [PDF]

open access: yes
Previous researchers have modelled the decision to accept a donor organ for transplantation as a Markov decision problem, the solution to which is often a control-limit optimal policy: accept any organ whose match quality exceeds some health-dependent ...

Macau as Method: Recombinant Urbanism in Post‐Socialist China

open access: yesAsia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In ‘Asia as Method’, Chen Kuan‐Hsing argues for the value of an indigenous inter‐Asian approach to analysing the effects of European imperialism on the countries and citizens of Asia. This article mobilises both Chen's inter‐Asian referencing strategy and the city‐state of Macau to explore Macau's role in China's engagements with global ...

“Yet the Problem Remains”: Why Genetic Determinism Still Haunts Biomedical Research

open access: yesBioethics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT After the horrors of the Holocaust and its connections to eugenics were revealed to the world, many post‐war population geneticists sought to establish rhetorical distance from the Nazi's state‐led campaigns, without abandoning their belief that actively shaping the population's genetics would produce a prosperous society.

Noninvasive Tests for Predicting Decompensation in Compensated Advanced Chronic Liver Disease: A Comprehensive Review. [PDF]

open access: yesLiver Int
ABSTRACT Strong non‐invasive tests (NITs) are needed to predict decompensation in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD) and improve personalized patient care. We conducted a comprehensive review of the studies evaluating the effectiveness of NITs in predicting decompensation or liver‐related death in patients with cACLD.

Ecologization Is Not a Metaphor: Museums in the Web of Life

open access: yesCurator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article documents and critiques emerging accounts of museum “ecologization”. Drawing on political ecology, materialist theory, and contemporary museum practice, we challenge dominant frameworks of ecological modernization and advocate for a more critical understanding of museums in the web of life.
