To halt further progression of liver disease, medical treatment was given aimed at different mechanisms possibly causing cholestasis in erythropoietic protoporphyria. Within eighty days, liver biochemistry completely normalized and liver histology markedly improved. Bone marrow transplantation was performed to ...
removing neutrophils can alleviate LPS-induced systemic inflammation and liver damage in ALD.89However, in a clinical study and death risk assessment of 121 patients, the 90-day mortality rate was independently related to the degree of fibrosis...
type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia. People living in Asia are generally not as obese as those living in Europe or the U.S., yet NAFLD is becoming increasingly common in this area. These findings have led to the discovery of non-obese NAFLD, which surprisingly has a higher mortality rate than...
Researchers from the Karolinska Institute determined that patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) have a higher overall mortality rate compared with the general population. Details of this study are available in the February issue ofHepatology, a journal published by Wiley-Blackwell on b...
but its long-term effectiveness and safety have not been well-studied. Moreover, treatment of patients with vitamin E who do not have NASH is associated with higher mortality andprostate cancer. Vitamin E can be used for treating NASH, but it should be used selectively (not in all patients...
Although NAFLD initially has a low mortality rate, it gradually increases with changes in the living environment and genetic factors (Le et al., 2022; Long et al., 2022; Patikorn et al., 2021). Recent studies have found that the 10-year survival rate of patients with NASH is about 60...
Using fibrosis stage 0 as a reference population, fibrosis stage-specific mortality rate ratios (MRRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for all-cause and liver-related mortality were estimated. The study is reported according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-...
The mortality rate from cardiovascular disease, cancer, respiratory disease, and liver disease also increased in proportion to the fatty liver index. By type of cancer, the index also influenced the death rates of esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, colon cancer, mucosal lung cancer, breast cancer,...
Although the mortality rate for fetuses with FGR has improved, this condition complicates fetal development and future adult diseases, resulting in significant problems. Therefore, the prevention of such issues by intervening during the fetal period is of great importance. In this study, our results...
For example, a case control study comparing 20 patients with severely steatotic grafts (median of 90% liver steatosis) with 40 matched patients without fatty grafts showed comparable 60-day post-transplant mortality (5% vs. 5%) and 3-year patient survival rates (83% vs. 84%) [19]. ...
