Cybele Lara R. Abad, Brian D. Lahr, Raymund R. Razonable – 8 February 2017 – The epidemiology of infections after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is limited. We aimed to study the epidemiology and risk factors of infections after LDLT. The medical records of 223 adult patients who underwent LDLT from January 1, 2000 to August 31, 2015 were reviewed for all infections occurring up to 1 year. We estimated the cumulative incidence of infection using the Kaplan‐Meier product limit method. Risk factors were analyzed with time‐dependent Cox regression modeling.

Patients outside clinical trials seldom benefit from evidence‐based monitoring. The objective of this study was to estimate the cost‐effectiveness of complying with HCC screening guidelines.

Seitz, Pierre Rufat, Angela Sutton, Heike Bantel, Thomas Longerich – 7 February 2017 – Noninvasive assessment of disease activity in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is still unsettled, but essential for the evaluation of disease progression.

Agopian, Ronald W. Busuttil, David S.K. Lu – 7 February 2017 – In a long‐term (10‐year) study of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) as bridging therapy in patients listed for orthotopic liver transplantation (LT), we evaluated the impact of RFA on waiting list dropout rate, post‐LT tumor recurrence, and long‐term intention‐to‐treat, disease‐specific survival (DSS).
