Albumin Restores Endothelial Cell Mitochondrial Morphology in Patients With Decompensated Cirrhosis

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background & Aims Endothelial cell (EC) activation is a critical driver of disease progression in cirrhosis, contributing to acute decompensation (AD) and acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF). Although human albumin administration improves EC function in cirrhotic patients with hypoalbuminemia, its direct effects on ECs remain unclear.

A Case of Worsened Refractory Ascites due to Prednisolone Administration for Stricture Prevention after Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Extensive Early Esophageal Cancer: Case Report and Literature Review

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used for early esophageal cancer, even in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC). Corticosteroids, administered orally or by local injection, are often used to prevent post‐ESD esophageal stricture. However, their safety in patients with decompensated LC and refractory ascites remains unclear. A man
