Correlation of Sarcopenia with Etiologies of Liver Cirrhosis and Its Association with Child-Pugh and MELD Scores

National Board of Examinations Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Sarcopenia, defined by the progressive decline in muscle mass and strength, is a common yet often overlooked complication in individuals with liver cirrhosis. The extent of muscle loss varies based on the underlying cause of cirrhosis and may

The effectiveness of the MAP(ASH) score in predicting clinical outcomes in patients with acute variceal bleeding

Medicine Science
Acute variceal bleeding is one of the most fatal complications of cirrhosis. Accurate risk stratification is crucial to guide management and predict prognosis. Most existing scoring systems have limitations due to subjective variables and difficulties in

Risk Factors for Small‐for‐Size Syndrome Grade B/C After Simultaneous Splenectomy in Adult Living‐Donor Liver Transplantation

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In a single‐center cohort of 577 adult LDLT recipients who underwent simultaneous splenectomy, clinically significant SFSS grade B/C (ILTS‐iLDLT‐LTSI 2023) occurred in 18.2% and was associated with inferior graft survival. Multivariate analysis identified MELD ≥ 30, NLR ≥ 4.5, and donor age ≥ 50 years as independent risk factors, which risk rising ...

Multifactor Risk Stratification for Post‐Transplant Alcohol Relapse Using Abstinence, Psychosocial, and Socioeconomic Factors

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Alcohol relapse after liver transplantation is difficult to predict using abstinence duration alone. We developed a multifactor model integrating abstinence duration, psychosocial risk (SIPAT), and socioeconomic context (AUC 0.70). This approach may support individualized risk assessment and tailored follow‐up intensity; external validation is needed ...

“Intrapericardial Approach” for Venous Outflow Reconstruction in Living‐Donor Liver Transplantation for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome: Surgical Techniques and LongTerm Outcomes

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Unlike deceased‐donor liver transplantation, living‐donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome (BCS) presents distinctive challenges in hepatic venous (HV)‐outflow reconstruction because diseased HV–inferior vena cava (IVC) cannot be entirely replaced with healthy donor vessels.
