Availability of living donor optimizes timing of liver transplant in high-risk waitlisted cirrhosis patients Open
Liver transplant (LT) candidates have become older and frailer, with growing Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and comorbid disease burden in recent years, predisposing them for poor waitlist outcomes. We aimed to evaluate the impact of…

Divergent trajectories of lean <i>vs </i>obese non-alcoholic steatohepatitis patients from listing to post-transplant: A retrospective cohort study Open
Although lean NASH is considered to be more benign than obese NASH, our study suggests a paradoxical correlation of lean NASH with waitlist outcomes, and graft and patient survival post-LT.

Sex Disparity in Liver Transplant and Access to Living Donation Open
These study findings suggest that women can overcome the complex problem of allocation inequity with access to livers from living donors. Women with access only to DDLT were much more unwell than men independent of liver disease at the tim…
