Somaya Albhaisi, Kilyoung Kim, Jonathan Baker, Nachiappan Chidambaram, Mahesh V. Patel, Michael Charlton, Arun J. Sanyal – 2 August 2020 – Hypogonadism affects hepatic lipid metabolism and is expected to promote nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The aims of this study were to determine (1) the prevalence of NAFLD in hypogonadal males and (2) the impact of correction of hypogonadism by LPCN 1144 (Lipocine, Inc., Salt Lake City, UT), an oral testosterone prodrug, on NAFLD in this population.

Vinod K. Rustgi, You Li, Tina John, Carolyn Catalano, Mohamed I. Elsaid – 2 August 2020 – Chronic Liver Disease (CLD) is associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the health care burden of CKD in the CLD spectrum is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the health care use and cost burdens associated with CKD in patients with CLD in the United States by using real‐world claims data. We analyzed data from the Truven Health MarketScan Commercial Claims database from 2010 to 2015.

Angela L. Chu, Joel D. Schilling, Kevin R. King, Ariel E. Feldstein – 1 August 2020 – Single cell transcriptomics has emerged as a powerful lens through which to study the molecular diversity of complex tissues such as the liver, during health and disease, both in animal models and in humans. The earliest gene expression methods measured bulk tissue RNA, but the results were often confusing because they derived from the combined transcriptomes of many different cell types in unknown proportions.

Henry Shiau, Danielle Guffey, Kathleen M. Loomes, Christa Seidman, Emily Ragozzino, Jean P. Molleston, Deborah Schady, Daniel H. Leung – 1 August 2020 – Alagille syndrome (ALGS) and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) are inherited cholestatic disorders with risk of developing end‐stage liver disease requiring liver transplantation (LT). We investigated aspartate aminotransferase‐to‐platelet ratio index (APRI), Fibrosis‐4 score (FIB‐4), and conjugated bilirubin as biomarkers to assess fibrosis severity and risk for LT among children with ALGS and PFIC.
