Relationship between controlled attenuated parameter and magnetic resonance imaging–proton density fat fraction for evaluating hepatic steatosis in patients with NAFLD

Ziming An, Qiaohong Liu, Wenli Zeng, Yan Wang, Qian Zhang, Huafu Pei, Xin Xin, Shuohui Yang, Fang Lu, Yu Zhao, Yiyang Hu, Qin Feng – 4 April 2022 – We used cross‐sectional and longitudinal studies to comprehensively compare hepatic steatosis measurements obtained with magnetic resonance imaging–proton density fat fraction (MRI‐PDFF) and controlled attenuated parameter (CAP) in hepatic steatosis in adults with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). A total of 185 participants with NAFLD and 12 non‐NAFLD controls were recruited.

Identification of hepatic steatosis in living liver donors by machine learning models

Jihye Lim, Seungbong Han, Danbi Lee, Ju Hyun Shim, Kang Mo Kim, Young‐Suk Lim, Han Chu Lee, Dong Hwan Jung, Sung‐Gyu Lee, Ki‐Hun Kim, Jonggi Choi – 3 April 2022 – Selecting an optimal donor for living donor liver transplantation is crucial for the safety of both the donor and recipient, and hepatic steatosis is an important consideration. We aimed to build a prediction model with noninvasive variables to evaluate macrovesicular steatosis in potential donors by using various prediction models.
