Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major global burden, ranking as the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality. HCC due to chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) or C virus (HCV) infection has decreased due to universal vaccination for HBV and effective antiviral therapy for both HBV and HCV, but HCC related to metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is increasing.

Background And Aim: Data are limited regarding etiology-specific trends for delisting and re-compensation for liver disease improvement among liver transplant (LT) listed candidates in the US.
Methods And Results: A retrospective cohort (2002-2022) using UNOS database examined etiology-specific trends for delisting and re-compensation due to liver disease improvement among candidates listed for LT. Of 120,451 listings in adults, 34,444 (2002-08), 38,296 (2009-2015), 47,711 (2016-2022) were analyzed.

Background: To investigate the trends in alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD), liver cancer from alcohol, and alcohol use disorder (AUD) burden among older adults in the United States (US).
Methods: We gathered the ALD, liver cancer from alcohol, and AUD prevalence, mortality, and age-standardized rates (ASRs) from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) Study 2021 between 2010 and 2021. We estimated the annual percent change (APC) with confidence intervals (CIs) for the burden of ALD, liver cancer from alcohol, and AUD in older adults (>70 years) in the United States.
