Filter by:The investigated cohort will examine liver and spleen fibrosis in patients with Gaucher Disease(GD) by using Shear Wave Elastography- SWE to evaluation fibrosis of the tissue and to check the correlation of fibrosis with the biomarkers of disease severity.
In this research study, the investigators will conduct a prospective cross-sectional study of pediatric and adult Fontan patients that will correlate a variety of quantitative MRI biomarkers with histopathologic data.
A post-treatment follow-up observational study for liver disease subjects with or without liver cirrhosis after receiving emricasan or placebo. Subjects must have been enrolled in a prior IDN-6556 study to be eligible.
Pilot study examining changes in liver stiffness measured by ultrasound before and after TIPS creation
The goal of this study is to learn more about liver fibrosis and methods to detect it. We will evaluate and compare multiple MRI based measures of liver fibrosis in subjects with and without liver disease.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SIM (formerly referred to as GS-6624) in adults with compensated cirrhosis due to Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH). It will consist of 2 phases: - Randomized Double-Blind Phase - Open-Label Phase (optional)
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether SIM (formerly referred to as GS-6624) is effective at preventing the histologic progression of liver fibrosis and the clinical progression to cirrhosis in participants with NASH. It will consist of 2 phases: - Randomized Double-Blind Phase - Open-Label Phase (optional)
This study will examine whether 12 month treatment with entecavir(Baraclude®) has an effect on changes of liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and of hyaluronan measurement in patients with chronic hepatitis B infection.
The prevalence of chronic hepatopathies is high in jail. However, the medical care of these hepatopathies is few developed. This study is an observational, an epidemiologic (screening and prevalence of fibrosing hepatopathies) and an evaluating study for a better taking care of these hepatopathies in jail. The aims of the study will be to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the FibroMeter score in the screening of the hepatic fibrosis in persons with multiple risk factors for liver fibrosis (alcoholism, intravenous drug users, tattoo, and virological status) with FibroScan® as gold standard; to evaluate the feasibility of these different screening tools for chronic hepatopathies in jail and to evaluate the prevalence of the fibrosing hepatopathies with clinically significant fibrosis and theirs risk factors, alcohol and hepatitis B and hepatitis C viruses in population from Angers jail.
Cirrhotic patients undergoing hepatic resection have a mortality rate near 10%, and 30 to 70% of them develop severe complications. These failures are mainly due to hepatic insufficiency. Studies have already shown benefits of oral nutritional supplements in ORL, digestive, and cardiac surgery. We aimed to ascertain whether this nutritional, immune-enhancing supplementation, administered 7 days before and 3 days after surgery, could improve liver function and postoperative host defences in patients with liver cancer resection.
