Journal ArticleDOI

Disease progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a prospective study with paired liver biopsies at 3 years

TL;DR: Investigating disease progression in patients with different degrees of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) activity found weight reduction is associated with non-progressive disease and fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Entecavir treatment reduces hepatic events and deaths in chronic hepatitis B patients with liver cirrhosis.

TL;DR: Entecavir therapy reduces the risks of hepatic events, HCC, liver‐related and all‐cause mortality of CHB patients with liver cirrhosis in 5 years, particularly among those who had maintained viral suppression.
Journal ArticleDOI

A longitudinal study on the natural history of serum hepatitis B surface antigen changes in chronic hepatitis B.

TL;DR: HBsAg remained stable in HBeAg‐positive patients and tended to reduce slowly in H beAg‐negative patients, suggesting reduction of HBsAg for >1 log IU/mL could reflect improved immune control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-invasive diagnosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis by combined serum biomarkers.

TL;DR: CK-18 is the most accurate biomarker for NAFLD and NASH and a two-step approach using CK-18 and FGF21 further improves the accuracy in diagnosing NASH.
Journal ArticleDOI

High serum interleukin-6 level predicts future hepatocellular carcinoma development in patients with chronic hepatitis B.

TL;DR: High serum IL‐6 level predates the development of HCC in chronic hepatitis B patients, and has moderate accuracy in predicting future cancer, which may assist clinicians in selecting high‐risk patients for HCC surveillance program.
