The present invention can be processed using a computer with one or more medical images of the liver, liver surface and quantifying the nodules, comprising the calculating the liver surface nodules score, about how to determine at least one hepatic fibrosis or hepatic cirrhosis in a subject.BACK...
The relationship between baseline fibrosis stage and the composite outcome of ESLD, HCC, or liver-related death was similar to that observed for all-cause mortality (Figure 1B; log-rank test, P < .001; P for trend <.001). Patients with cirrhosis had the highest incidence rate of liver ...
Liver fibrogenesis is intimately associated with activation of HSCs, and the fibrolytic process is accompanied by the reduction of the activated HSCs. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the feasibility of this method to assess the severity of liver fibrosis and the reversal after the fibrotic ...
fibrosis(P0.05).HVAT,VAT,VVT correlated negatively with the development of fibrosis(P0.01).The correlation coefficient of VVT was highest(r=-0.88).Conclusion HVAT,VAT,VVT are closely associated with the stage of liver fibrosis,especially VAT,VVT can evaluate the stage of liver fibrosis ...
1 There is an association between liver fibrosis and incident heart failure (HF).2 The mechanisms for this association, currently unclear, may be of particular importance for people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and/or hepatitis C, both of which are chronic infections with ...
Liver fibrosis contributes to significant morbidity and mortality in Western nations, primarily attributed to chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Hypoxia and immune status have been reported to be significantly correlated with the progression of liver fibrosis. The current research aimed to investi...
Liver fibrosis is common, particularly in individuals who are infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV-infected individuals have excess congestive heart failure (CHF) risk compared with uninfected people. It remains unknown whether liver fibrosis stage influences the CHF risk or if HIV ...
We evaluated the extent of hepatic fibrosis in chronic liver disease of dogs using a modification of Ishak's staging criteria for human chronic liver disease, and examined the association of stage of fibrosis with immunophenotypic markers of transdifferentiation of hepatic sinusoidal endothelial cells an...
Therefore, markers of kidney fibrosis can also be used as universal markers in the diagnostics of CKD and ESRD. Renal failure is also accompanied by endocrine disorders and epigenetic changes in various cells, which can serve as ESRD biomarkers as well. In this review, we summarize information ...
0.909 (95% CI 0.847-0.970, p < 0.001), was higher than that for the other fibrotic scores (APRI, NAFLD fibrosis score, FIB-4 index, BARD score, NIKEI) in the construct group.This simple scoring system accurately predicts fibrotic stage and discriminates patients with advanced fibrosis of ...
