Long-term risk of chronic liver disease in patients with celiac disease: a nationwide population-based, sibling-controlled cohort study
CeD is associated with a persistently increased risk of any incident CLD, although the absolute risk is low. Physicians should be vigilant to early signs of liver dysfunction in patients with CeD.

There is urgent need for clinical trials for #HBV in #Africa.

Studies must deliver:
1. Quick start-up
2. Site potential, access to participants
3. High quality research leading to impact

The key may be in the selection. There are so many variables (types of surgery, types of decompensation) that it is impossible to address from a prospective study at this point in time. It may be worthwhile to have a registry to help glean what is futile versus what is possible.

Key recommendations in portal vein thrombosis in patients with cirrhosis:

✅Identify recent thrombosis and extent
✅Anticoagulate if recent & >50% obstruction
❌ No anticoagulants if chronic cavernomas
✅DOACs safe if compensated
🤏 TIPS sometimes

I once lost a debate in spectacular fashion to @brettefortune.bsky.social. Popular vote landslide AND electoral college

He was for early TIPS after variceal bleeding. I was against

My points were:

#liversky
⚠️ A recent study in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension shows that preoperative placement of TIPS is associated with increased postoperative mortality 🤨

Albumin is the closest thing to a "universal remedy" in cirrhosis

We use it to treat different complications, with good evidence but also with debatable or negative evidence

Decompensated cirrhosis has often been considered the irreversible, terminal stage of liver disease, but this is not actually always the case

Have you heard of the concept of cirrhosis "recompensation"?

Observations:
1. Bluesky still needs more value for learners and research discussions. It is growing but needs to be sustained
2. Match day reminds: America and American medicine still attracts the worlds best and brightest
