The results of morphological investigations of the palms tissues in the patients, suffering Dupuytren's contracture (DC) and in whom chronic hepatitis was diagnosed, are adduced. The patients were divided on three groups, depending on the hepatic fibrosis grade present. Determination of morphological changes in various stages in patients, suffering hepatic fibrosis stage one and lasting up to 5 years, witnesses the possibility of the DC recurrence and its severity enhancement. The authors stress the necessity of morphological investigations conduction with the objective to determine the hepatic fibrosis grade while surgical intervention planning.

Correlation of sarcopenia with progression of liver fibrosis in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease: a study from two cohorts in China and the United States.
Nutr J
January 2025
Department of Urology, Changzhou Third People's Hospital, Changzhou, 213001, China.
Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the association between sarcopenia and liver fibrosis in patients aged 18-59 years with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and to assess the potential of sarcopenia as a risk factor for the progression of liver fibrosis.
Methods: The study included 821 patients with MASLD in the US cohort and 3,405 patients with MASLD in the Chinese cohort. Liver controlled attenuation parameters (CAP) and liver stiffness measurements (LSM) were assessed by vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) to evaluate the extent of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis.
Cutoff points for handgrip strength in patients with liver cirrhosis: a multicenter study.
Eur J Clin Nutr
January 2025
Food Science Graduate Program, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Belo Horizonte, Brazil.
Objectives: This study aimed to define handgrip strength (HGS) cutoff points to predict 1-year mortality in adult patients with liver cirrhosis.
Methods: This is an analysis of cohort databases from four reference centers in Brazil. Inpatients or outpatients with cirrhosis and aged ≥18 years were included.
Feasibility of indocyanine green fluorescence imaging to predict biliary complications in living donor liver transplantation: A pilot study.

Department of Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul National University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.
Backgrounds/aims: Liver transplantation (LT) is now a critical, life-saving treatment for patients with liver cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Despite its significant benefits, biliary complications (BCs) continue to be a major cause of postoperative morbidity. This study evaluates the fluorescence intensity (FI) of the common bile duct (CBD) utilizing near-infrared indocyanine green (ICG) imaging, and examines its association with the incidence of BCs within three months post-LT.

This study investigates levels of cuproptosis markers in Wilson disease (WD) and their role in the occurrence and development of WD. We retrospectively collected clinical data from 76 patients with Leipzig score ≥ 4 hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine from January 2023 to September 2023. The participants were given copper chelators (sodium dimercaptosulphonate (20 mg·kg-1), 4 courses of treatment, 32 days).

Liver cirrhosis is a chronic disease caused by long-term inflammation and fibrosis of the liver. Early identification and intervention in liver cirrhosis have become an important goal for researchers to explore the influence of some metabolic factors on the risk of liver cirrhosis in terms of genetic susceptibility. Data from genome-wide association studies (GWASs) of fourteen metabolic factors and liver cirrhosis were obtained from publicly available databases.
