Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk persists after hepatitis C virus (HCV) eradication with direct‐acting antivirals (DAAs), particularly in patients with cirrhosis. Identifying those who are likely to develop HCC is a critical unmet medical need. Our aim is to develop a score that offers individualized patient HCC risk prediction.. ..In the derivation cohort, the median follow‐up… Continue reading GES: A validated simple score to predict the risk of #HCC in patients with #HCV‐GT4‐associated advanced liver fibrosis after oral antivirals

Texture analysis of MR images to identify the differentiated degree in hepatocellular carcinoma: a retrospective study
To explore the clinical value of texture analysis of MR images (multiphase Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI and T2 weighted imaging (T2WI) to identify the differentiated degree of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).. ..The grey-level co-occurrence matrix -based texture features were most frequently extracted and the nonlinear discriminant analysis was excellent with the misclassification rate ranging from 3.33 to 14.93%.… Continue reading Texture analysis of MR images to identify the differentiated degree in hepatocellular carcinoma: a retrospective study
High incidence of #hepatocellular carcinoma and #cirrhotic complications in patients with psychiatric illness: a territory-wide cohort study
Because of high-risk behaviours, sedentary lifestyle and side effects of medications, psychiatric patients are at risk of viral hepatitis, alcohol-related liver disease and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. We aimed to study the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cirrhotic complications in psychiatric patients.. ..We included 105,763 psychiatric patients without prior liver-related events in the final… Continue reading High incidence of #hepatocellular carcinoma and #cirrhotic complications in patients with psychiatric illness: a territory-wide cohort study
