David Wyles, Paul Pockros, Giuseppe Morelli, Ziad Younes, Evguenia Svarovskaia, Jenny C. Yang, Phillip S. Pang, Yanni Zhu, John G. McHutchison, Steven Flamm, Eric Lawitz – 2 April 2015 – Patients who fail to achieve sustained virological response (SVR) after treatment with sofosbuvir (SOF) plus ribavirin (RBV) with or without pegylated interferon (Peg‐IFN) do not have established retreatment options.

Jonathan G. Stine, Neeral L. Shah, Curtis K. Argo, Shawn J. Pelletier, Stephen H. Caldwell, Patrick G. Northup – 2 April 2015 – Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is a common complication of cirrhosis sometimes implicated in hepatic decompensation. There are no consistent epidemiologic data to suggest an increased risk of thrombotic complications in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH); however, research suggests an increased risk of thrombosis.

Joao Seda Neto, Flávia H. Feier, Ana Luiza Bierrenbach, Cristiana M. Toscano, Eduardo A. Fonseca, Renata Pugliese, Helry L. Candido, Marcel R. Benavides, Gilda Porta, Paulo Chapchap – 2 April 2015 – Biliary atresia (BA) is the main diagnosis leading to liver transplantation (LT) in children. When diagnosed early in life, a Kasai portoenterostomy (Kasai‐PE) can prevent or postpone LT. Instances of previous operations can result in difficulties during the LT. We hypothesized that a previous Kasai‐PE could affect LT outcomes.

Christopher Lee, Lauren Ihde, Andrew Kim, Idoia Santos, Lea Matsuoka, Yong Cen, Melissa Wallman, Edward Grant – 2 April 2015 – No guidelines exist for the management of pulmonary nodules in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are being evaluated for liver transplantation. The 172 patients with HCC who were listed for liver transplant at our institution received both pretransplant chest computed tomography (CT) and follow‐up CT.

Karlsen – 1 April 2015 – There is a need to determine biomarkers reflecting disease activity and prognosis in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC).

Juling Ji, Tobias Eggert, Anuradha Budhu, Marshonna Forgues, Atsushi Takai, Hien Dang, Qinghai Ye, Ju‐Seog Lee, Ji Hoon Kim, Tim F. Greten, Xin Wei Wang – 1 April 2015 – Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients suffer from a poor survival rate and a high incidence of postoperative recurrence. The hepatic microenvironment plays a significant role in the initiation, progression, and recurrence of HCC; however, the causal mechanisms of these phenomena are unclear.
