Filter by:The investigators will treat 50 patients with cirrhosis due to hepatitis C genotype 1, with sofosbuvir 400 mg daily, ledipasvir 90 mg daily and weight-based ribavirin (1000 mg/d if <75 kg, 1200 mg/d if >75 kg, divided in two daily doses) for 12 weeks and calculate the sustained viral response rate at 12 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to measure diagnostic performance of ultrasound shear wave elastography to detect advanced hepatic fibrosis.
The investigators specific aim is to evaluate the changes in breath ammonia in comparison to blood ammonia and other physiologic markers after a moderate oral protein challenge in healthy subjects and subjects with liver cirrhosis.
Background and Aims: Liver transplantation is the only curative treatment modality for decompensated cirrhosis and is limited by donor organ availability and financial resources; thus many patients die while awaiting liver transplant. Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (GCSF) therapy can mobilize bone marrow stem cells for tissue regeneration, and has been shown to benefit patients with liver disease. The investigators evaluated the efficacy of GCSF therapy in decompensated cirrhosis in an open labelled randomized control trial. Patients and Methods: Consecutive patients with decompensated cirrhosis of mixed etiologies were randomized to receive either a 5-day course of GCSF (5 μg/kg/d) plus standard medical therapy for 6 months (Group-A); or standard medical therapy alone for 6 months (Group-B). At the end of 6 months their survival were compared.
Randomized, open-label safety, tolerability study with exploratory endpoints and pathophysiological evaluation of the FMT Two groups of outpatients with cirrhosis will be randomized using random sequence generator into no-treatment and FMT groups.
Since the availability of interferon free direct acting antivirals (DAA) the centers authorized to prescribed these drugs in Austria submitted their data to a central data base (AURIC) using treatment regimes without interferon and ribavirin in patients with advanced liver disease (F3/4)
The investigators will treat 100 patients with cirrhosis due to hepatitis C with sofosbuvir 400 mg daily, daclatasvir 60 mg daily and weight-based ribavirin (1000 mg/d if <75 kg, 1200 mg/d if >75 kg, divided in two daily doses) for 12 weeks and calculate the sustained viral response rate at 12 weeks.
Investigators aim to compare the efficacy of 8 mm Fluency covered stent and bare stent in transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) for the treatment of cirrhotic portal hypertension.
To use the PatientBuddy App to reduce 30-day avoidable readmissions in cirrhotic patients using a patient and caregiver perspective.
Retrospective/Prospective, open-label study using sofosbuvir based DAA therapy to treat HIV/HCV coinfected pre or post liver transplant participants
