Soluble CD163 as a Biomarker of Liver Fibrosis and Inflammation in Liver Transplant Recipients
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Post liver transplantation (LT) inflammation and fibrosis are clinical challenges that may affect long‐term outcomes. We aimed to investigate sCD163 as a biomarker of liver fibrosis in LT recipients and compare it with the Fibrosis 4 (FIB‐4) score and FibroScan.

In children with biliary atresia (BA), breath‐holding during liver and spleen stiffness (LS and SS) measurement is often difficult, raising concerns about measurement reliability in the awake state. We investigated whether performing LS and SS measurements under general anesthesia—when brief ventilation pauses are possible—could improve diagnostic ...
