Filter by:There will be 124 patients diagnosed as hepatitis B associated acute on chronic liver failure with mild to moderate hepatic encephalopathy will be enrolled in this study according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and will be randomly divided into two groups as 1:1.First group is called Rifaximin group, on the basis of comprehensive treatment of liver failure, Rifaximin (Alfa Sigma S.p.A) is added, three times a day, 400 mg each time, for a total of 4 weeks, and observed until 12 weeks after withdrawal. The other group is called standard treatment group (control group), which will receive routine comprehensive treatment for liver failure. The reversal of mild to moderate hepatic encephalopathy in the two groups of patients will be observed within 4 weeks, then follow up to 12 weeks.
Liver failure is the most severe form of liver damage caused by viral, alcoholic, drug-related and ischemia-reperfusion factors, often combined with extrahepatic organ damage, resulting in a high mortality rate. This study intends to construct a real-world case registry database of inpatients with liver failure based on an electronic clinical data collection system through a multicenter collaborative network to study the clinical characteristics, epidemiology of bacterial and fungal infections, the impact of sarcopenia on clinical prognosis, and optimization of treatment strategies such as antiviral and artificial liver in Chinese inpatients with liver failure. The cohort and experience generated from this study will be used as a support for a series of future studies to focus on clinical issues such as infection, end-stage liver disease combined with organ failure, and early warning of critically ill patients.
This multi-centric study analyses the effect of intravenous branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) on overt HE in patients with ACLF. The investigators aim to study the efficacy of combining intravenous BCAA with lactulose versus lactulose alone, ammonia measures, endotoxin, metabolomics, and cerebral edema in the medical management of overt HE in patients with ACLF. The study will also access the impact on overall survival and improvement in the grade of HE.
This study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phaseâ…¡ clinical trial . The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety of F573 for injection in patients with liver injury (drug-induced liver injury (DILI), chronic hepatitis B (CHB), etc.).
Hypothesis Relaxed ROTEM cutoff guided blood product transfusion will result in less blood products use without increasing bleeding complications for invasive procedures in cirrhosis or acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients AIM:- To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Relaxed threshold (as compared to conventional thresholds) for blood product transfusion for invasive procedures in cirrhosis or acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients Objective - Primary objective: To compare the reduction in amount of total component transfused (ml/kg) in Relaxed Rotational Thromboelastometry based versus Conventional Rotational Thromboelastometry based transfusion strategy in cirrhosis or acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients. Secondary objectives: To compare the amount of FFP (ml/kg) transfused in Relaxed Rotational Thromboelastometry cut off based versus Standard Rotational Thromboelastometry cut off based transfusion strategy in cirrhosis or acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients. To compare the amount of Platelet (ml/kg) transfused in Relaxed Rotational Thromboelastometry based versus Conventional Rotational Thromboelastometry based transfusion strategy in cirrhosis or acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients. To compare the amount of cryoprecipitate (ml/kg) transfused in Relaxed Rotational Thromboelastometry based versus Conventional Rotational Thromboelastometry based transfusion strategy in cirrhosis or acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients. To compare the bleeding rate in Relaxed Rotational Thromboelastometry cut off based versus Conventional Rotational Thromboelastometry cut off based transfusion strategy in cirrhosis or acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients. To compare the rate of transfusion reactions in Relaxed Rotational Thromboelastometry based versus Conventional Rotational Thromboelastometry based transfusion strategy in cirrhosis or acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients. To compare the cost incurred in Relaxed Rotational Thromboelastometry based versus Conventional Rotational Thromboelastometry based transfusion strategy in cirrhosis or acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients.
- Various neurotransmitters may share in the pathogenesis of hepatic and renal itching. - Skin microbiota may share in the pathogenesis of pruritus.
It has been identified that impaired liver function, as occurs in patients with liver cirrhosis, prevents proper conjugation of glucuronic acid with bilirubin; as a result, unconjugated bilirubin accumulates in the blood, and conjugated bilirubin is markedly altered to form diglucuronides or monoglucuronides. However, in the development and progress of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) there is not enough information about these processes and the possible concentration levels that they can take. Also Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a reversible complication, but with a high mortality rate in patients with acute or chronic liver failure, as well as a consequence of the formation of portosystemic shunts.
This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of artificial liver support system treatment for immune checkpoint inhibitors related liver failure in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
There is very little data related to the natural history of disease from covert HE (MHE and grade 1 HE) to overt HE (grades II, III and IV) in ACLF, with implications on long-term neurological recovery after an episode of overt HE. The evolution and pathogenesis of HE is well described in ALF and cirrhosis, but the dynamic changes in HE in ACLF in response to therapy such as ammonia reduction measures, antibiotics to target sepsis and inflammation, measures to alter dysbiosis such as probiotics or fecal microbiota transplant, and measures to target immune dysfunction such as steroids in alcohol-associated hepatitis. The central role of ammonia in the pathogenesis of HE in ACLF has been challenged by recent data. The approach to HE in ACLF has now refocused on systemic and neuro-inflammation, gut dysbiosis, immune dysregulation, and multi-omics approach. Most importantly, the modulation of the metabolome in response to therapy and interventions, and the use of sedatives, paralytic agents, antibiotics etc. in ACLF with HE in a real-world setting has not been reported.
Patients with Acute on Chronic Liver Failure (ACLF) have high short-term mortality. The use of a severity score could define the patient's prognosis. This study mainly prospectively analyze the clinical data of patients with chronic liver disease related acute liver failure admitted to the department of infectious diseases, Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, to analyze the prognosis of patients with chronic liver disease related acute on-chronic liver failure in Central South China. No additional interventions other than routine treatment will be added.
