Sarcopenia and gender disparities in liver transplant waiting lists: evaluating predictive scores and delisting risks.

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b></p><p>The model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) and model for end-stage liver disease-sodium (MELD-Na) scores are the most widely used for prioritizing patients on the liver transplant (LT) waiting list. However, the quality and accuracy of these scores are questionable....

Management of Children Awaiting Liver Transplantation: Sarcopenia, Cholestasis and Beyond.

Sarcopenia has been increasingly recognized as a risk factor for worse outcomes in liver transplantation; however, the data remain limited on pediatric-specific outcomes. These gaps in knowledge are in part due to the lack of a standardized definition, challenges inherent...

Type II fibre atrophy and nuclear disruption in decompensated cirrhosis.

Loss of skeletal muscle mass is a common complication in cirrhosis that is associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Since the specific pathophysiology of cirrhosis-related muscle loss is unclear, we performed histological evaluation of muscle tissue from patients with cirrhosis...

A fluorescent aptasensor for deoxynivalenol detection based on Nb.BbvCI-assisted targeted-responsive three-way junctions integrated DNA walking machine.

Deoxynivalenol (DON) contamination in cereals is a widespread issue with global implications, necessitating the development of efficient detection methods. Here, a fluorescent aptasensor integrating target-responsive DNA three-way junction (TWJ) and DNA walking machine was developed to detect DON. The DON-specific...

Skeletal Muscle P MR Spectroscopy Surpasses CT in Predicting Patient Survival After Liver Transplantation.

Skeletal muscle alterations are associated with higher mortality and morbidity in patients with liver cirrhosis. Assessing these changes seems to be a promising method for identifying patients at a high risk of poor outcomes following liver transplantation (LT). This is...
