BACKGROUND: Hepatic fibrosis (HF) represents a pivotal stage in the progression and potential reversal of cirrhosis, underscoring the importance of early identification and therapeutic intervention to modulate disease trajectory.
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Liver transplant (LT) recipients may succumb to graft-related pathologies, contributing to graft fibrosis (GF). Current methods to diagnose GF are limited, ranging from procedural-related complications to low accuracy. With recent...
BACKGROUND: The global prevalence of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and its associated risk of adverse outcomes, particularly in patients with advanced liver fibrosis, underscores the importance of early and accurate diagnosis.
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection represents a significant global public health issue, often leading to hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related liver cirrhosis (HBV-LC) with poor prognoses. Early identification of HBV-LC risk is essential for timely interv...
The gut microbiota plays a vital role in human health, and significant effort has been made to predict human phenotypes, especially diseases, with the microbiota as a promising indicator or predictor with machine learning (ML) methods. However, the a...
We sought to develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model for predicting multidimensional frailty based on clinical and laboratory data. Moreover, an explainable ML model utilizing SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) was constructed. This stud...
Purpose To evaluate the performance of an automated deep learning method in detecting ascites and subsequently quantifying its volume in patients with liver cirrhosis and patients with ovarian cancer. Materials and Methods This retrospective study in...

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility of developing a grading diagnostic model for schistosomiasis-induced liver fibrosis based on B-mode ultrasonographic images and clinical laboratory indicators.
BACKGROUND: The prognosis for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the presence of cirrhosis is unfavourable, primarily attributable to the high incidence of recurrence.
