Diagnostic Impact of Liver Biopsy Among Antinuclear Antibody Positive Individuals With Mild Liver Enzyme Elevation

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In ANA‐positive patients with suspected autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), liver biopsy rarely altered therapeutic management when alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was below 101 U/L and cirrhosis was absent. These findings suggest that biopsy may be safely deferred in this low‐risk group.

A Nationwide Assessment of Anticholestatic Therapy Uptake in Patients With Primary Biliary Cholangitis: Opportunities for Optimisation

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Among a nationwide population with primary biliary cholangitis, almost all people were prescribed ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). However, UDCA was insufficiently dosed in a one third of them. The results indicate that first‐line treatment can be optimized, particularly in those with a biochemical response and higher body weight.

Baseline Alkaline Phosphatase Impacts Response Rates in Primary Biliary Cholangitis: Exploring Response to Elafibranor in ELATIVE. [PDF]

Liver Int
ABSTRACT Background & Aims Baseline alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels can influence the likelihood of achieving dichotomous biochemical response criteria in primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). This concept was explored using Week 52 data from the phase III ELATIVE trial (NCT04526665), which assessed elafibranor, a peroxisome proliferator‐activated ...

Impact of Treatment Response to Anticoagulant Therapy on Liver‐Related Events in Patients With Cirrhosis and Portal Vein Thrombosis

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
In patients with cirrhosis and a first portal vein thrombosis treated with intravenous anticoagulant therapy, the 3‐year cumulative rates of liver‐related events were 56.7% and 75.5% in the effective and ineffective groups, respectively. A good radiological response was associated with fewer liver‐related hospitalizations.

Loss of Posterior Occlusal Support Is Associated With Incident Steatotic Liver Disease in a Nationwide Longitudinal Analysis of the JMDC Claims Database

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Steatotic liver disease (SLD), including metabolic dysfunction–associated SLD (MASLD) and metabolic dysfunction–associated alcohol‐related liver disease (MetALD), is a growing global health burden. Although impaired mastication is linked to metabolic disorders, its role in SLD remains unclear.

Diagnostic Impact of Two‐Dimensional Shear Wave Elastography for Liver Fibrosis: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Two‐dimensional shear wave elastography demonstrated strong correlation with magnetic resonance elastography and high diagnostic accuracy for liver fibrosis across stages in 744 patients with chronic liver disease, supporting its role as a reliable non‐invasive tool for fibrosis assessment.

Annual magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography surveillance outcomes in individuals with primary sclerosing cholangitis

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Annual surveillance for cholangiocarcinoma using magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) has been recommended in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) to improve the associated dismal outcomes. However, data are limited. Aims To compare the outcomes of surveillance versus non‐surveillance in patients with PSC.

Incidence of P200 pemphigoid: A nationwide study

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
The anti‐LAMB4 cell‐based immunoassay is a new serological technique that is far superior to dermal immunoblotting for detecting autoantibodies directed against the P200 protein. This method allows a re‐evaluation of the incidence of P200 pemphigoid, which appears to be considerably more frequent than epidermolysis bullosa acquisita.
