Using a machine learning model to risk stratify for the presence of significant liver disease in a primary care population (2023)
Journal Article

Background: Current strategies for detecting significant chronic liver disease (CLD) in the community are based on the extrapolation of diagnostic tests used in secondary care settings. Whilst this approach provides clinical utility, it has limitatio...

An integrated gene-to-outcome multimodal database for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (2023)
Journal Article

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the commonest cause of chronic liver disease worldwide and represents an unmet precision medicine challenge. We established a retrospective national cohort of 940 histologically defi...

Development, validation, and prognostic evaluation of a risk score for long-term liver-related outcomes in the general population: a multicohort study (2023)
Journal Article
Serra-Burriel, M., Juanola, A., Serra-Burriel, F., Thiele, M., Graupera, I., Pose, E., …Wildsmith, T. (2023). Development, validation, and prognostic evaluation of a risk score for long-term liver-related outcomes in the general population: a multicohort study. Lancet, 402(10406), https://doi.org/10.1016/s0140-6736%2823%2901174-1

Background: Liver cirrhosis is a major cause of death worldwide. Cirrhosis develops after a long asymptomatic period of fibrosis progression, with the diagnosis frequently occurring late, when major complications or cancer develop. Few reliable tools...

Mortality rates among patients successfully treated for hepatitis C in the era of interferon-free antivirals: population based cohort study (2023)
Journal Article
Hamill, V., Wong, S., Benselin, J., Krajden, M., Hayes, P. C., Mutimer, D., …Innes, H. (2023). Mortality rates among patients successfully treated for hepatitis C in the era of interferon-free antivirals: population based cohort study. BMJ, 382, Article e074001. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj-2022-074001

Objectives To quantify mortality rates for patients successfully treated for hepatitis C in the era of interferon-free, direct acting antivirals and compare these rates with those of the general population. Design Population based cohort study.... Read More about Mortality rates among patients successfully treated for hepatitis C in the era of interferon-free antivirals: population based cohort study.

Circadian Disruption Primes Myofibroblasts for Accelerated Activation as a Mechanism Underpinning Fibrotic Progression in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (2023)
Journal Article
Jokl, E., Llewellyn, J., Simpson, K., Adegboye, O., Pritchett, J., Zeef, L., …Piper Hanley, K. (2023). Circadian Disruption Primes Myofibroblasts for Accelerated Activation as a Mechanism Underpinning Fibrotic Progression in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease. Cells, 12(12), Article 1582. https://doi.org/10.3390/cells12121582

Circadian rhythm governs many aspects of liver physiology and its disruption exacerbates chronic disease. CLOCKΔ19 mice disrupted circadian rhythm and spontaneously developed obesity and metabolic syndrome, a phenotype that parallels the progression...
