Objectives

  • Explore novel epidemiological insights into liver disease and liver cancer, including the impact of lifestyle factors, substance use, and social determinants on liver-related mortality.
  • Examine clinical associations between liver conditions (e.g., PBC, PSC, cirrhosis) and broader health outcomes such as pregnancy complications and hospitalization risks.
  • Discuss real-world data applications in understanding inpatient management and symptom burden in advanced liver disease, highlighting opportunities for improving care delivery and patient outcomes.
