De Novo Autoimmune Hepatitis after COVID-19 Infection in an Unvaccinated Patient.

Liver test abnormalities have been described during severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV)-2 infection causing coronavirus disease 2019. Most of them consist of elevation of the aminotransferases that resolve once the infection subsides. There are several reports of autoimmune hepatitis developing after vaccination against COVID-19 and one case of autoimmune hepatitis following COVID-19 infection.

Evolution of a Transplant Surgery Advanced Practice Provider Practice Model in the Care of High-Acuity Liver Transplant Recipients: A Single-Center Experience.

Background: The role of advanced practice providers (APPs) in an academic transplant surgical acute care setting remains to be defined. We sought to evaluate the impact of a transplant surgeon-APP (TSAPP) practice model on patient access and outcomes in the care of critically ill patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) in an academic transplant center.

Methods: A retrospective analysis evaluated the effect of practice model evolution over an 11-year period on hospital access of patients with ESLD to an academic liver transplantation center and survival outcomes.
