BACKGROUND: Predicting long-term outcomes in liver transplantation remain a challenging endeavor. This research aims to harness the power of deep learning to develop an advanced prognostic model for assessing long-term outcomes, with a specific focus...
Post-Liver transplantation (LT) survival rates stagnate, with biliary complications (BC) as a major cause of death. We analyzed longitudinal data with a median 19-month follow-up. BC was diagnosed with ultrasounds and MRCP. Missing data was imputed u...
Major advances in managing critically ill patients with liver disease have improved their prognosis and access to intensive care facilities. Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is now a well-defined disease and these patients can be fast-tracked fo...
BACKGROUND: Patients undergoing liver transplantation (LT) are at risk of perioperative neurocognitive dysfunction (PND), which significantly affects the patients' prognosis.
BACKGROUND: Several scores have been developed to stratify the risk of graft loss in controlled donation after circulatory death (cDCD). However, their performance is unsatisfactory in the Spanish population, where most cDCD livers are recovered usin...
BACKGROUND: Children with autoimmune liver disease (AILD) may develop fibrosis-related complications necessitating a liver transplant. We hypothesize that tissue-based analysis of liver fibrosis by second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy with art...
This review provides a summary of the diagnostic approach to pediatric liver transplantation (LT) pathology. It emphasizes the pathologic features of T-cell-mediated rejection, the most common finding on liver allograft biopsies, and discusses other ...

BACKGROUND: The long-term survival of liver transplant (LT) recipients is essential for optimizing organ allocation and estimating mortality outcomes. While models like the Model-for-End-Stage-Liver-Disease (MELD) predict 90-day mortality on the wait...
Pure laparoscopic donor hepatectomy (PLDH) has become a standard practice for living donor liver transplantation in expert centers. Accurate understanding of biliary structures is crucial during PLDH to minimize the risk of complications. This study ...
AIMS: The aim of our study was to formulate and validate a prediction model using machine learning algorithms to forecast the risk of pressure injuries (PIs) in children undergoing living donor liver transplantation (LDLT).
