NCT04664621
A pilot study to determine if a simple blood test can predict patients at risk for significant episodes of confusion and disorientation that can occur in patients who receive an artificial shunt through the liver to control complications of liver disease.
NCT03599492
The effect of portal hypertension on gastrointestinal motility, and how reversal or improvement in portal hypertension may alter gastrointestinal motility, remains unclear and further research is needed. Additionally, patients with cirrhosis have altered gut microflora, particularly rich in lactobacilli, including enterococci and bifidobacteria. Transjugular Intraheptic Portosystemic Shunting (TIPS) is a procedure performed by interventional radiologists, in which a connection is made between the portal and venous circulations, allowing high pressure portal blood to more easily enter the systemic circulation and bypass the liver; thus effectively decreased portal pressure.
NCT04375670
Background: The COVID19 and liver relationships are very rare. The preliminary Chinese data indicate that 2-11% of patients treated for COVID19 had an underlying chronic liver disease. However, there is no clinical data on morbi-mortality in this context. Objectives: Primary Objective: Evaluate the mortality related to Covid-19 in patients with a chronic liver disease Secondary objectives: * Evaluate the mortality (liver-related and no liver-related) due to the Covid-19 according to the cirrhotic status, an history of hepatocellular carcinoma, an immunosuppressive treatment and its type, the etiology-ies of liver disease at the diagnosis of Covid-19 (viral hepatitis -B and/or C-, liver disease related to alcohol consumption, metabolic syndrome, hemochromatosis, immune liver disease, other or unknown), and comorbidities * Evaluate the liver morbidity related to Covid-19, including * incidence of liver biochemical abnormalities in patients with normal liver enzymes values or of a 2-fold increase of usual values for AST, ALT, GGT, Alcalines Phosphatasis * incidence of liver complications (acute hepatitis, liver insufficiency, decompensation of cirrhosis, encephalopathy, renal insufficiency) Patients: All patients with a liver disease (chronic or acute) with a positive diagnosis of Covid-19 assessed either by positive PCR or specific thoracic abnormalities at TDM Methodology: Observational ambispective study consisting exclusively of a collection of data from patients with liver diseases and managed for COVID 19 The data is collected and transcribed on a secure electronic eCRF hosted at the Assitance Publique des Hôpitaux de Paris and accessible online from the AFEF website Duration and organisation of the research: After information of the patients and making available a non-opposition form, the main demographic and clinical data related to the liver disease and to the COVID19 already collected in the patient's medical record will be collected in a dedicated e-CRF. Effective of the study: All consecutive patients included in the study whose data are collected e-CRF until 31/12/2020.
