Noncontrast-enhanced MRI superior to US but less cost-effective for HCC screening
Noncontrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (NCEMRI) demonstrates superiority over ultrasonography (US) for the surveillance of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in at-risk populations, although this strategy is more expensive than US, according to a Singapore study.
Vaccines protect liver disease patients against severe COVID-19
Patients with liver disease develop antibodies and T-cell responses following three shots of COVID-19 vaccines, while those who have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 develop mild symptoms only, reports a recent study.
HCC incidence rare in autoimmune hepatitis, tied to obesity, cirrhosis
The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains low in patients with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) even after developing cirrhosis, according to a study. Factors such as obesity, cirrhosis, and AIH/primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) variant syndrome can increase the risk of HCC incidence.
Antivirals underutilized after curative resection of HBV- or HCV-related HCC
Antiviral therapy is associated with substantial improvements in long-term overall survival (OS) but severely underutilized after curative hepatic resection in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)– or hepatitis C virus (HCV)–related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a real-world study involving predominantly Asian patients has shown.
