Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) Plus Sorafenib Compared to TACE Alone in Transplant Recipients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma: An Institution Experience

Maen Abdelrahim, David Victor, Abdullah Esmail, Sudha Kodali, Edward A. Graviss, Duc T. Nguyen, Linda W. Moore, Ashish Saharia, Robert McMillan, Joy N. Fong, Ahmed Uosef, Mahmoud Elshawwaf, Kirk Heyne, Rafik M. Ghobrial

Summary: This study compared the outcomes of HCC patients treated with TACE plus sorafenib versus TACE monotherapy and found that the combination therapy was generally well-tolerated and associated with improved overall survival. However, further multicenter and prospective randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm these findings.

Antibiotic Prophylaxis for Upper Gastrointestinal Bleed in Liver Cirrhosis; Less May Be More

Yousaf B. Hadi, Raja S. Khan, Dhairya A. Lakhani, Ali Y. Khan, Rida U. Jannat, Adnan Aman Khan, Syeda Fatima Naqvi, George Obeng, Justin T. Kupec, Ashwani K. Singal

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effect of shorter antibiotic duration on patient outcomes in patients with cirrhosis and upper gastrointestinal bleeding. A retrospective study of 980 cirrhosis patients found that a short course of antibiotics (around 3 days) for prophylaxis is safe and sufficient in the absence of active infection.

Gemcitabine Plus Cisplatin Versus Non-Gemcitabine and Cisplatin Regimens as Neoadjuvant Treatment for Cholangiocarcinoma Patients Prior to Liver Transplantation: An Institution Experience

Maen Abdelrahim, Abdullah Esmail, Jiaqiong Xu, Godsfavour Umoru, Hadeel Al-Rawi, Ashish Saharia, Ala Abudayyeh, David Victor, Robert McMillan, Sudha Kodali, Rafik M. Ghobrial

Summary: This study investigates the potential efficacy of Gemcitabine plus Cisplatin as a neo-adjuvant treatment for cholangiocarcinoma patients prior to liver transplantation. The results suggest improved overall survival outcomes with Gemcitabine plus Cisplatin compared to non-Gemcitabine/Cisplatin regimens in these patients.

Summary: This study found that previous RYGB in patients with AC is associated with increased likelihood of concomitant AH, hepatic encephalopathy, and infection, but similar in-hospital mortality.

Healthcare burden and outcomes of hepatorenal syndrome among cirrhosis-related hospitalisations in the US

Ashwani K. Singal, Yong-Fang Kuo, K. Rajender Reddy, Ramon Bataller, Paul Kwo

Summary: The study found that in 2019, there were 27,180 hospitalisations caused by Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS), requiring an estimated $4.2 billion USD in healthcare expenditures. Despite a decrease in in-hospital mortality over time, HRS remains a significant cause of death in patients hospitalized with cirrhosis.

Integrated Multidisciplinary Management of Alcohol-Associated Liver Disease

Malia Holbeck, Hannah Statz DeVries, Ashwani K. Singal

Summary: Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a common liver disease and a reason for liver transplantation (LT). Patients with ALD often have alcohol use disorder (AUD) and psychiatric comorbidities. Early identification of ALD and treatment of AUD can prevent progression to advanced stages of the disease. However, there are barriers to screening and treatment for AUD in ALD patients. This review discusses the multidisciplinary care model for managing the dual pathology of ALD and AUD, with a focus on the roles of hepatologists, psychiatrists, addiction counselors, and social workers.

Waitlist and post-transplant outcomes among candidates listed for liver transplant: Liver alone versus simultaneous liver kidney listings

Ashwani K. Singal, Yong-Fang Kuo

Summary: This study compared the waitlist and post-transplant outcomes of liver transplantation alone (LTA) and simultaneous liver kidney (SLK) listings. It found that SLK patients had lower mortality on the waitlist and higher survival rates after transplantation. Therefore, the kidney function of patients should be taken into consideration when choosing the transplantation method.

Therapeutic targets in alcohol-associated liver disease: progress and challenges

Ayooluwatomiwa Deborah Adekunle, Adeyinka Adejumo, Ashwani K. K. Singal

Summary: Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a complex and rapidly increasing disease without approved therapeutic targets. Challenges in study designs and clinical trials need to be overcome to drive drug development in this field. ALD management should focus on achieving and maintaining alcohol abstinence, while early liver transplantation protocols and noninvasive biomarkers require improvement. Integrated multidisciplinary care models are urgently needed to improve long-term outcomes for ALD patients with alcohol use disorder and liver disease.

Alcohol use disorder in alcohol-associated liver disease: Two sides of the same coin

Ashwani K. Singal, Lorenzo Leggio, Andrea DiMartini

Summary: Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a leading cause for liver transplantation (LT) globally, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic and among young individuals. Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is prevalent in the majority of ALD patients, and early liver transplantation (eLT) has emerged as a potential treatment for selected patients with alcohol-associated hepatitis. However, the challenge lies in addressing AUD treatment, which requires an integrated multidisciplinary care approach.

Summary: Patients with chronic liver disease may experience a significant burden from COVID-19 infection and the pandemic. A survey found that 11.3% of patients reported an impact on their liver disease, with 73% experiencing delays in follow-up care. Furthermore, 81% of patients with a history of COVID-19 and 69% without a history experienced worsening in at least one area.
