Background: Covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) is a stable, episomal form of HBV DNA. cccDNA is a true marker for the intrahepatic events in controlled CHB infection. Quantifying cccDNA is critical for monitoring disease progression, and efficacy of anti-viral therapies.

Background & Aims: Papillary neoplasms of the biliary tree, including intraductal papillary neoplasms (IPN) and intracholecystic papillary neoplasms (ICPN), are recognized as precancerous lesions. However, the genetic characteristics underlying sequential carcinogenesis remain unclear.
Methods: Whole-exome sequencing was performed on 166 neoplasms (33 intrahepatic IPNs, 44 extrahepatic IPNs, and 89 ICPNs), and 41 associated carcinomas.

Objective: This study aimed to compare morbidity of living donors and recipients after pure laparoscopic donor right hepatectomy (PLDRH) and open donor right hepatectomy (ODRH).
Background: Donor and recipient morbidity have not been sufficiently reported in large-scale comparisons of PLDRH and ODRH.
Methods: This retrospective study reviewed 3348 donors who underwent PLDRH (n=329) and ODRH (n=3019) and their corresponding recipients (n=3348) between January 2014 and August 2023.

This study investigates the role of SPINK1 in liver cancer and its regulatory relationship with FOXM1. Using differential gene analysis in the GEO database, SPINK1 was identified as overexpressed in liver cancer tissues and associated with poor prognosis, confirmed via PCR. Functional assays demonstrated that SPINK1 knockdown reduced proliferation, migration, and invasion in liver cancer cells, while promoting apoptosis.

Background: Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary (HPB) surgery is a complex specialty and Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications have the potential to improve pre- intra- and postoperative outcomes of HPB surgery. While ethics guidelines have been developed for the use of AI in clinical surgery, the ethical implications and reliability of AI in HPB surgery remain specifically unexplored.
Methods: An online survey was developed by the Innovation Committee of the E-AHPBA to investigate the current perspectives on the ethical principles and trustworthiness of AI in HPB Surgery among E-AHPBA membership.
