Hepatitis B Virus RNA Predicts Hepatocellular Carcinoma Despite Viral Suppression
Serum HBV RNA levels at viral suppression predict HCC development in nucleos(t)ide analogue‐treated patients with chronic hepatitis B, outperforming Hepatitis B core‐related antigen alone. ABSTRACT Background Despite achieving undetectable hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA levels with nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) therapy, patients with chronic hepatitis B ...

A PBUB is a rare but often fatal complication of endoscopic variceal band ligation. The relevant risk factors contributing to PBUB are unknown and consequently there are no effective preemptive strategies. This study highlights kidney disease as a predictor of PBUB together with the well‐established higher risk for urgent band ligation.
