Jan Petrasek, Denisa Erhartova, Beth Levine – 12 September 2019 – Excessive accumulation of lipids in the liver is crucial in the pathogenesis of alcoholic steatohepatitis and may be partly mediated by impaired degradation of lipid droplets by autophagy. The E3 ubiquitin ligase SMAD‐specific E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1 (SMURF1) regulates selective autophagy by ubiquitinating proteins on cargo destined for autophagic delivery to the lysosome for degradation. Here, we evaluated the role of SMURF1 in the regulation of hepatic lipid degradation in alcoholic steatohepatitis.

Sorensen, Estella M. Alonso, for Studies of Pediatric Liver Transplantation (SPLIT) – 11 September 2019 – The goal of this work was to examine the change in health‐related quality of life (HRQOL) and cognitive functioning from early childhood to adolescence in pediatric liver transplantation (LT) recipients.

Farmer, Ronald W. Busuttil, Jerzy W. Kupiec‐Weglinski, Fady M. Kaldas – 11 September 2019 – Intestinal microbiota is thought to play an important role in hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) after liver transplantation (LT). Rifaximin, a nonabsorbable antibiotic used to treat encephalopathy, exhibits antibacterial activity within the gut.

Jan P. Lerut, Quirino Lai, Jean Ville de Goyet – 11 September 2019 – Extended splanchnic venous thrombosis represents a challenge for the liver transplantation (LT) surgeon. In the absence of large venous tributaries, the cavoportal hemitransposition (CPHTr) and the combined liver‐intestinal or multivisceral transplantation are the only technical solutions. Because of the reported high morbidity and mortality rates due to infrequent use and a lack of standardization, the former technique has been almost abandoned by the transplant community.
