Livers from morbidly obese donors have been of particular concern at many transplant centers. However, it has been shown that fatty livers (<30% macrosteatosis) from obese patients fare as well as or better (equivalent patient andgraft survivalrates) than nonsteatotic livers from similar donors....
Development of FLD did not have a negative impact on LT outcome; the 5-year survival rate was 92.6%. Conclusions:Recipient factors were more important than donor factors for FLD onset after LT.doi:10.1016/j.aohep.2022.100670Kentaro.Horiuchi...
A Cox proportional hazard model was used to compare recurrence free survival and patient survival curves adjusted for covariates. The Hazard (event rate) ratio (HR) and its 95% confidence bounds under this model is reported. Linearity between the log hazard rate and age, the only continuous cov...
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide [1]. Its initiation and progression are complex and influenced by various factors that are still under investigation. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the most prevalen...
Abstinence can resolve alcoholic fatty liver disease and can improve the survival rate of cirrhotic or decompensated liver failure patients. Thus, motivating the patients to abstain from alcohol and follow the proper treatment regime are major steps. However, preventing relapse in ...

Association of fatty liver and small dense LDL (sdLDL) concentration is now well documented [75,76]. As the triglyceride-rich VLDL is entering plasma at an accelerated rate, small, dense LDL, the most atherogenic subclass of LDL, develop after triglycerides are gradually removed from LDL. Two...
The mean liver-related death rate among the general population during the study period was 0.1% of all deaths. There was a significantly worse survival for patients in the AFLD group compared to the NAFLD group after adjusting for gender, calendar year of diagnosis and age at diagnosis (HR ...
the 5-year overall survival rate of CRC patients with unresectable liver metastasis remains only 2.2% [2]. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide, with an overall global prevalence of 30%, and its incidence is projected to increase by 56% over ...
However, it is encouraging that long-term survival after treatment with curative intent at early stages of the disease may now reach 50% to 70% over 5 years [101]. Further improvement in these figures is critically linked to effective surveillance and early recognition. For now, cirrhosis ...
