Prediction models of post-liver transplant mortality are crucial so that donor organs are not allocated to recipients with unreasonably high probabilities of mortality. Machine learning algorithms, particularly deep neural networks (DNNs), can often ...
Machine learning analyses allow for the consideration of numerous variables in order to accommodate complex relationships that would not otherwise be apparent in traditional statistical methods to better classify patient risk. The SPLIT registry data...

OBJECTIVES: Survival after liver transplant depends on pretransplant, peritransplant, and posttransplant factors. Identifying effective factors for patient survival after transplant can help transplant centers make better decisions.

PURPOSE: Fast and accurate graft hepatic steatosis (HS) assessment is of primary importance for lowering liver dysfunction risks after transplantation. Histopathological analysis of biopsied liver is the gold standard for assessing HS, despite being ...
OBJECTIVE: Create an efficient decision-support model to assist medical experts in the process of organ allocation in liver transplantation. The mathematical model proposed here uses different sources of information to predict the probability of orga...

OBJECTIVE: The role of adipokines in liver transplantation (LTx) recipients who have metabolic syndrome (MetS) has seldom been assessed. The aim of this study was to investigate the concentrations of adipokines, inflammatory mediators, and insulin-re...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Addressing many clinical questions, such as estimating survival differences between living donor (LDLT) and deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT), relies on observational studies, as randomized-controlled trials (RCTs) are of...
BACKGROUND: Echinococcosis, caused by Echinococcus parasites, includes alveolar echinococcosis (AE), the most lethal form, primarily affecting the liver with a 90% mortality rate without prompt treatment. While radical surgery combined with antiparas...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Liver biopsy is the gold standard for assessing fibrosis in cirrhotic livers, yet cirrhosis is spatially heterogeneous and continuously remodels. This study evaluates a novel phenotypic digital pathology platform for continuous f...
Machine learning identifies liver fat fraction (FF) measured by H MR spectroscopy, insulinemia, and elastography as robust, non-invasive biomarkers for diagnosing steatohepatitis in liver transplant patients, validated through decision tree analysis....
