Introduction Obesity has been associated with liver fibrosis yet guidelines do not emphasise it as an independent risk factor in which to have a high index of suspicion of advanced disease. We aimed to elucidate the effect of a raised body mass inde...

Validation of a model for identification of patients with compensated cirrhosis at high risk of decompensation (2019)
Journal Article
Guha, I., Harris, R., Berhane, S., Dillon, A., Coffey, L., James, M., …Johnson, P. (2019). Validation of a model for identification of patients with compensated cirrhosis at high risk of decompensation. Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 17(11), 2330-2338.e1. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cgh.2019.01.042

Background & Aims: It is important to rapidly identify patients with advanced liver disease. Routine tests to assess liver function and fibrosis provide data that can be used to determine patients’ prognoses. We tested the validated the ability of co...
