Biochemical and Molecular Insights Into Monocrotaline‐Induced Hepatotoxicity: An Experimental Mouse Study

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monocrotaline (MCT), a plant‐derived pyrrolizidine alkaloid, is well known for its hepatotoxic effects. However, full elucidation of the mechanisms underlying MCT‐induced hepatotoxicity, as well as the development of reliable biomarkers for early detection and monitoring, requires an integrated evaluation of biochemical, molecular, and ...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography for the Assessment of Congestive Liver Disease in Patients With Structural Heart Disease

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Shear wave elastography demonstrated moderate diagnostic accuracy for detecting congestive liver disease in patients with structural heart disease. Increased liver stiffness was associated with echocardiographic markers of venous congestion, supporting the concept that elastography may serve as a noninvasive marker of cardiohepatic interaction ...

Postprandial Changes in Thoracic Aortic Flow Detected by 4D Flow MRI May Influence Study Results

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While there is a growing body of data using 4D flow MRI to distinguish between normal and abnormal blood flow values in the thoracic aorta, the extent of physiological variation or lack thereof is potentially undervalued. Physiological processes such as postprandial changes to hemodynamics might influence data, normal values, follow‐

Probiotics and intestinal permeability in adults with metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis: A secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is associated with altered intestinal permeability, allowing microbial products to translocate to the liver via the enterohepatic circulation and contributes to disease progression. The aim of our study was to evaluate the association between probiotic supplementation and serum

Early discharge after paediatric liver biopsy: A prospective observational study

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the safety of early discharge after percutaneous liver biopsy (PLB) in children using prospective bleeding risk stratification. Methods In this prospective observational cohort study, paediatric patients scheduled for PLB were stratified into low‐ and high‐risk groups based on bleeding history and laboratory values.
