Factors Associated With Liver Fibrosis in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and the Predictive Value of CHI3L1

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
In a retrospective cohort of 236 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) was common and significant fibrosis (liver stiffness measurement [LSM] ≥8 kPa) was frequently observed. Serum chitinase‐3‐like protein 1 (CHI3L1) correlated with LSM (r = 0.48) and remained an independent predictor of ...

The Dynamic Evolution of Lipid Profiles Following Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Cirrhosis is frequently accompanied by varying degrees of lipid profile abnormalities. This study confirms that these profiles are differentially affected by disease etiology and progressively worsen—with significant reductions in TC, HDL‐C, and LDL‐C—as liver disease severity increases. TIPS improves lipid profiles, particularly by increasing HDL‐C in

The Price of a Whipple: Predicting Hospital Charges Using Preoperative Patient Characteristics

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Preoperative lab abnormalities are significant predictors of hospital charges following Whipple's pancreaticoduodenectomy. In a retrospective review of 375 cases, patients with ≥ 3 preoperative laboratory‐based predictors incurred substantially higher charges, underscoring the value of preoperative optimization in reducing financial burden.
