Elevation of Immunoglobulin Free Light Chain and BAFF Levels Associated With Immune Activation Predicts Survival Rates in Chronic Liver Disease

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Elevated serum free light chain (FLC) and B‐cell activating factor (BAFF) levels have been reported to be associated with B‐cell activation and to serve as biomarkers reflecting disease severity in various diseases. However, limited investigation has been conducted in the context of chronic liver disease (CLD), and the aim of this study ...

Prognostic Significance of Bile Duct Loss in Early‐Stage Primary Biliary Cholangitis: A Long‐Term Observational Study

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Bile duct loss on liver biopsy predicts future liver‐related events in early‐stage primary biliary cholangitis, even in patients with preserved liver function. This finding highlights the prognostic value of histological bile duct assessment at diagnosis and may guide early risk stratification and management decisions.

Clinical Characteristics and Long‐Term Prognosis of Primary Biliary Cholangitis in Japan: Results of the 2nd‐Generation Nationwide Survey

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
We have established the 2nd‐generation nationwide survey of PBC in Japan. Our analyses of the survey result not only highlight the demographical trend in Japanese PBC patients over time; they also validate the previously described risk factors for the patients' prognoses.

Serum Growth Differentiation Factor 15 Can Be a Novel Biomarker to Predict the Prognosis of Patients With Hepatitis C Virus Cirrhosis After Virus Elimination

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Although direct‐acting antivirals (DAAs) achieve high sustained virologic response (SVR) rates, the long‐term outcomes of patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV)‐related cirrhosis remain variable. Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15), a stress‐induced cytokine, has emerged as a potential biomarker for liver disease ...
