Article Synopsis
- * The only certain treatment for ALF is liver transplantation (LT); however, some patients, especially those with acetaminophen-related liver failure, might recover with medical support instead of needing LT.
- * Extracorporeal liver support (ECLS) is a growing area of interest in treating ALF, aiming to help the liver by removing toxins and promoting regeneration, with two main types: artificial ECLS (like dialysis methods) and bioartificial ECLS (which uses live hepat

Division of Pediatrics and Neonatal Critical Care, "A. Béclère" Medical Center, Paris; Saclay University Hospital, APHP-Paris, Paris, France.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates trends in infant mortality rates linked to extreme neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (EHB) in six European countries from 1990 to 2019, revealing a significant decline in such mortality rates over the years.
- Results showed a decrease in EHB-related infant mortality from 21.4 to 4.2 per million live births, with Germany showing the best improvement and Portugal the most significant decline rate.
- The findings underscore the need for national surveillance and tailored guidelines to prevent bilirubin-induced neurological damage, highlighting substantial differences in mortality trends among the countries studied.

Objective: Vascular hyporeactivity increases with the incidence of obstructive jaundice (OJ). Evidence suggests that OJ activates the farnesoid X receptor (FXR) as well as the large-conductance Ca-activated K (BK or MaxiK) channel. This study was designed to explore the role of the FXR in vascular hyporesponsiveness induced by cholestasis.
