Association Between Artificial Liver Support System and Prognosis in Hepatitis B Virus-Related Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure.
Infect Drug Resist
January 2025
Center of Infectious Diseases, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, 610041, People's Republic of China.
Objective: The artificial liver support system (ALSS) has been recruited as an available method for patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), but its impact on the outcome of ACLF remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the association between ALSS treatment and short-term prognosis of hepatitis B-related ACLF (HBV-ACLF).
Methods: This was a retrospective observational cohort study, and data were obtained from the Center of Infectious Diseases, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, between Mar 2015 and December 2021.

Gastroenterology Res
December 2024
Hepatitis B Foundation, Doylestown, PA, USA.
Background: Alcohol dependence remains a significant global health issue, exacerbated by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Phosphatidylethanol (PEth), a direct biomarker of recent alcohol consumption, offers improved specificity, sensitivity, and a longer detection window of 2 - 4 weeks compared to traditional biomarkers. This study evaluates the association between PEth testing and hospital outcomes in hospitalized patients by comparing outcomes among patients with positive PEth and negative PEth test results.
