Michel Rayar, Giovanni B. Levi Sandri, Caterina Cusumano, Clara Locher, Pauline Houssel‐Debry, Christophe Camus, Nicolas Lombard, Veronique Desfourneaux, Mohamed Lakehal, Bernard Meunier, Laurent Sulpice, Karim Boudjema – 5 October 2016 – During orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), clamping of the portal vein induces splanchnic venous congestion and accumulation of noxious compounds. These adverse effects could increase ischemia/reperfusion injury and subsequently the risk of graft dysfunction, especially for grafts harvested from extended criteria donors (ECDs).

Alina M. Allen, W. Ray Kim, James P. Moriarty, Nilay D. Shah, Joseph J. Larson, Patrick S. Kamath – 3 October 2016 – Acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) is associated with multisystem organ failure and poor prognosis in hospitalized patients with cirrhosis. We aimed to determine time trends in the epidemiology, economic burden, and mortality of ACLF in the United States. The National Inpatient Sample database was queried between 2001 and 2011. ACLF was defined as two or more extrahepatic organ failures in patients with cirrhosis.
