Telemedicine in Liver Disease and Beyond: Can the COVID‐19 Crisis Lead to Action?

Marina Serper, Allen W. Cubell, Mary Elisabeth Deleener, Tara K. Casher, Dale J. Rosenberg, Dale Whitebloom, Roy M. Rosin – 10 April 2020 – Evidence strongly supports that access to specialty gastroenterology or hepatology care in cirrhosis is associated with higher adherence to guideline‐recommended care and improves clinical outcomes.

Using Artificial Intelligence for Predicting Survival of Individual Grafts in Liver Transplantation: A Systematic Review

Laura R. Wingfield, Carlo Ceresa, Simon Thorogood, Jacques Fleuriot, Simon Knight – 9 April 2020 – The demand for liver transplantation far outstrips the supply of deceased donor organs, and so, listing and allocation decisions aim to maximize utility. Most existing methods for predicting transplant outcomes use basic methods, such as regression modeling, but newer artificial intelligence (AI) techniques have the potential to improve predictive accuracy.

Ritonavir and Lopinavir Suppress RCE1 and CAAX Rab Proteins Sensitizing the Liver to Organelle Stress and Injury

Atousa Khalatbari, Pratibha Mishra, Hui Han, Yuxin He, Michelle MacVeigh‐Aloni, Cheng Ji – 8 April 2020 – Organelle stress and Liver injuries often occur in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients under anti‐HIV therapies, yet few molecular off‐targets of anti‐HIV drugs have been identified in the liver. Here, we found through total RNA sequencing that the transcription of a host protease Ras converting CAAX endopeptidase 1 (RCE1) was altered in HepG2 cells treated with anti‐HIV protease inhibitors, ritonavir and lopinavir.
