Active clinical trials for "Liver Cirrhosis"

Pilot study examining changes in liver stiffness measured by ultrasound before and after TIPS creation

Patients meet Baveno VI criteria (with a liver stiffness <20kPa and with a platelet count >150,000 are considered to have very low risk of having varices requiring treatment, but whether these patients can be followed up by repetition of this criteria lacks sufficient evidence. This study aimed to assess the value of Baveno VI criteria for following up and monitoring of varices needing treatment in patients with compensated cirrhosis.

This is a retrospective observational study in liver transplantation recipients with or without allograft liver fibrosis. Based on the GM-seq and Tcr-Seq data, a novel diagnostic model including DNA-methylation and TCR-Seq biomarkers will be established.

In this protocol, the investigators will determine compliance, acceptability, and patient satisfaction regarding the use of remote monitors and summarize changes in activity over time among patients with decompensated cirrhosis. This is a feasibility pilot study that will recruit 20 patients. The investigators plan to determine the feasibility of wearable devices to remotely monitor daily activity (e.g., physical activity, sedentary time, sleep), cognitive function, blood pressure, and weight in patients with decompensated cirrhosis, by assessing patient compliance. A patient is considered compliant if they wear the wristwatch at least 10 hours per day and use the Apps, body weight scale, and blood pressure monitor for at least 4 of 7 days

SIRIUS is the "serious" response to the prevalence of liver cirrhosis in Slovakia. We plan to screen adult Slovaks without acute or life-threatening comorbidity and without known liver disease (except from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease) for liver fibrosis by transient elastography (in community) or FIB-4 score (in outpatient clinics).

The aim of the study was to determine the independent predictors of variceal bleeding and control of bleeding in cirrhosis as no scientific assessment have been perfomed until now

To study the etiologies of patients diagnosed as non-B, non-C liver cirrhosis (NBNC-LC). To describe the different patient's outcomes.

A prospective series comparing care incorporating home monitoring and liver care coordination to conventional care for patients with cirrhosis.

This study aims to define the prevalence and potential pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying relative adrenal insufficiency (RAI) in outpatients with decompensated cirrhosis. Patients will be followed prospectively for up to two years to determine incidence of RAI, whether RAI represents a permanent or dynamic physiologic state in cirrhosis, and to determine whether RAI in this setting is associated with important clinical outcomes.

To explore whether normal alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is associated with liver injury in a cohort of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infected patients in grey zone
