Cardiovascular Risk Categories in Patients With Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and the Role of Low‐Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol

Christian Labenz, Jürgen H. Prochaska, Yvonne Huber, Michael Nagel, Beate K. Straub, Philipp Wild, Peter R. Galle, Jörn M. Schattenberg – 30 September 2019 – Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The current analysis expands the knowledge on atherogenic lipid profiles in NAFLD by modeling changes in low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) and total cholesterol (TC) in a prospectively enrolling real‐life study cohort to inform physicians on the cardiovascular (CV) event risk based on these changes.

Natural History of Recurrent Alcohol‐Related Cirrhosis After Liver Transplantation: Fast and Furious

Domitille Erard‐Poinsot, Sébastien Dharancy, Marie‐Noëlle Hilleret, Stéphanie Faure, Géraldine Lamblin, Christine Chambon‐Augoyard, Hélène Donnadieu‐Rigole, Guillaume Lassailly, Olivier Boillot, José Ursic‐Bedoya, Olivier Guillaud, Vincent Leroy, Georges‐Philippe Pageaux, Jérôme Dumortier – 28 September 2019 – Alcohol‐related liver disease (ALD) is one of the main indications for liver transplantation (LT). Severe alcohol relapse can rapidly lead to recurrent alcohol‐related cirrhosis (RAC) for the graft.

Biliary Complications After Liver Transplantation From Uncontrolled Donors After Circulatory Death: Incidence, Management, and Outcome

Carlos Jiménez‐Romero, Alejandro Manrique, María García‐Conde, Anisa Nutu, Jorge Calvo, Óscar Caso, Alberto Marcacuzco, Álvaro García‐Sesma, Edurne Álvaro, Roberto Villar, José María Aguado, María Conde, Iago Justo – 28 September 2019 – The utilization of livers from donation after uncontrolled circulatory death (uDCD) increases the availability of liver grafts, but it is associated with a higher incidence of biliary complications (BCs) and lower graft survival than those organs donated after brain death.
