Abstract

Background: Acute liver failure (ALF) can be a primary presentation of Wilson disease (WD). Mortality rates are high in WD with ALF (WDALF). Predictions of mortality in WDALF vary by model and are sometimes contradictory, perhaps because few patients are studied or WD diagnoses are questionable.

Yu-Ting Zhang 1, Jing Liu 1, Xiao-Ben Pan 1, Yi-Dan Gao 1, Yin-Fei Hu 2, Li Lin 3, Hua-Jun Cheng 4, Gong-Ying Chen 1

Abstract

Background: How to treat infantile hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a controversial issue. The nucleoside analogue lamivudine (LAM) has been approved to treat children (2 to 17 years old) with chronic hepatitis B. Here, we aimed to investigate the benefit of LAM treatment in infantile hepatitis B.

Madelon L Geurtsen 1 2, Rama J Wahab 1 2, Janine F Felix 1 2, Romy Gaillard 1 2, Vincent W V Jaddoe 1 2

Abstract

Background and aims: Gestational diabetes seems to be associated with offspring non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. We hypothesized that maternal glucose concentrations across the full range may have persistent effects on offspring liver fat accumulation.
