Alberto Calleri, Margherita Saracco, Fabrizia Pittaluga, Rossana Cavallo, Renato Romagnoli, Silvia Martini – 25 September 2021 – Chronic liver disease increased the risk of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19). Trials to assess efficacy/safety of COVID‐19 vaccines in liver disease are underway. We evaluated the humoral immune response and safety of anti–COVID‐19 vaccination among patients waiting liver transplantation (LT). We enrolled all pre‐LT adults who completed anti‐COVID‐19 vaccination between January 2021‐August 2021 as study group.

Peter J. Altshuler, Hien Dang, Adam M. Frank, Ashesh P. Shah, Jaime Glorioso, Tingting Zhan, Arturo Rios Diaz, Osama Shaheen, Carlo B. Ramirez, Warren R. Maley, Adam S. Bodzin – 25 September 2021 – The increasing prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) affects both recipient and donor populations in liver transplantation. Presently, it is unclear whether transplantation of macrosteatotic allografts is affected by the metabolic milieu of liver transplant recipients.

Srisengfa, Somaya Albhaisi, Bradley Reuter, Chathur Acharya, Jawaid Shaw, Leroy R. Thacker, Jasmohan S. Bajaj – 25 September 2021 – Acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a condition in cirrhosis associated with organ failure (OF) and high short‐term mortality.

Manns, Markus Cornberg, Heiner Wedemeyer, Benjamin Maasoumy, HIDIT‐II Study Group – 23 September 2021 – Standard treatment of hepatitis delta virus (HDV) infection remains pegylated‐interferon alfa (peg‐IFNα) in most centers, which is not only associated with rather low efficacy but several adverse events.

Christine E. Haugen, Mary G. Bowring, Kyle R. Jackson, Jacqueline Garonzik‐Wang, Allan B. Massie, Teresa Po‐Yu Chiang, Benjamin Philosophe, Dorry L. Segev, Karim J. Halazun – 23 September 2021 – Despite a documented survival benefit, older liver donor (OLD, age ≥70) graft offers are frequently declined, with utilization worsening over the last decade. To understand how offer acceptance varies by center, we studied 1113 eventually transplanted OLD grafts from 2009 to 2017 using Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) data and random‐intercept multilevel logistic regression.

Sarjukumar Panchal, Marina Serper, Therese Bittermann, Sumeet K. Asrani, David S. Goldberg, Nadim Mahmud – 23 September 2021 – Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is adjusted for Black race in commonly used formulas. This has potential implications for access to simultaneous liver‐kidney transplantation (SLKT) as qualifying criteria rely on eGFR.
