SIRveNIB: Selective Internal Radiation Therapy Versus Sorafenib in Asia-Pacific Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TL;DR: In patients with locally advanced HCC, OS did not differ significantly between RE and sorafenib, and the improved toxicity profile of RE may inform treatment choice in selected patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pre-existing liver disease is associated with poor outcome in patients with SARS CoV2 infection; The APCOLIS Study (APASL COVID-19 Liver Injury Spectrum Study).

TL;DR: SARS-Cov-2 infection causes significant liver injury in CLD patients, decompensating one fifth of cirrhosis, and worsening the clinical status of the already decompensated, which makes the patients with diabetes and obesity more vulnerable and should be closely monitored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin resistance and response to therapy in patients infected with chronic hepatitis C virus genotypes 2 and 3

TL;DR: Even in treatment-responsive genotypes 2 and 3, high HOMA-IR is associated with a reduced response, suggesting improving insulin sensitivity may be a useful adjunct to anti-viral therapy in patients with genotype 2 or 3 infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fibrosis in genotype 3 chronic hepatitis C and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease : Role of insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis

TL;DR: In conclusion, insulin resistance is an independent predictor of advanced fibrosis in both NAFLD and CHC‐3, but the extent of steatosis contributes to advanced disease only inNAFLD.
