Assessing Major Adverse Liver Outcomes With Baclofen Compared to Acamprosate in Compensated Alcohol‐Associated Cirrhosis

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 63, Issue 12, Page 1673-1684, June 2026.
We conducted a nationwide, multicenter cohort study using a target trial emulation framework to compare baclofen and acamprosate in patients with compensated alcohol‐associated cirrhosis. After matching, baclofen initiation was associated with a higher 1‐year risk of major adverse liver outcomes, driven primarily by hepatic encephalopathy, particularly

Proteomic Profiling of Plasma to Uncover Novel Intervention Targets and Prognostic Biomarkers for Chronic Liver Diseases

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 5029-5042, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims The burden of chronic liver disease (CLD) is increasing. This study aims to identify protein markers for CLD and its progression, and develop a protein‐based risk prediction model. Materials and Methods We used proteome‐wide Mendelian randomization (MR), Bayesian colocalization and summary‐data‐based MR with proteomic data from deCODE ...

Prognostic Value of an Early Response to Tolvaptan and Its Clinical Implications in Patients With Cirrhosis and Hepatic Edema: A Nationwide Multicenter Cohort Study

open access: yesHepatology Research, Volume 56, Issue 6, Page 925-932, June 2026.
In a nationwide multicenter cohort, an early response to tolvaptan (≥ 1.5‐kg weight loss within 7 days) was independently associated with improved long‐term survival in patients with cirrhosis and hepatic edema. Early initiation before renal impairment or hyponatremia may optimize treatment response and prognosis. ABSTRACT Aim Hepatic edema indicates a
