Selena Y. Lin, Yih‐Ping Su, Evan R. Trauger, Benjamin P. Song, Emilie G.C. Thompson, Malcolm C. Hoffman, Ting‐Tsung Chang, Yih‐Jyh Lin, Yu‐Lan Kao, Yixiao Cui, Hie‐Won Hann, Grace Park, Fwu‐Shan Shieh, Wei Song, Ying‐Hsiu Su – 24 August 2021 – Integrated hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA, found in more than 85% of HBV‐associated hepatocellular carcinomas (HBV‐HCCs), can play a significant role in HBV‐related liver disease progression. HBV‐host junction sequences (HBV‐JSs), created through integration events, have been used to determine HBV‐HCC clonality.

Falk, Solaiman Raha, Immo Prinz, Christian Koenecke, Michael P. Manns, Heiner Wedemeyer, Matthias Hardtke‐Wolenski, Elmar Jaeckel – 24 August 2021 – Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is induced by steatosis and metabolic inflammation. While involvement of the innate immune response has been shown, the role of the adaptive immune response in NASH remains controversial.

Short‐Term Safety of Repeated Acetaminophen Use in Patients With Compensated Cirrhosis

Mitchell R. McGill, Laura P. James, Sandra S. McCullough, Jeffery H. Moran, Samuel E. Mathews, Eric C. Peterson, Davis P. Fleming, Morgan E. Tripod, Joel H. Vazquez, Stefanie Kennon‐McGill, Horace J. Spencer, Jonathan A. Dranoff – 24 August 2021 – Current guidelines recommend restricting acetaminophen (APAP) use in patients with cirrhosis, but evidence to support that recommendation is lacking.

Therapeutic Underuse and Delay in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Prevalence, Associated Factors, and Clinical Impact

Rajalakshmi Govalan, Michael Luu, Marie Lauzon, Kambiz Kosari, Joseph C. Ahn, Nicole E Rich, Nicholas Nissen, Lewis R. Roberts, Amit G. Singal, Ju Dong Yang – 24 August 2021 – Prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) could be affected by lack of or delayed therapy. We aimed to characterize the prevalence, correlates, and clinical impact of therapeutic underuse and delay in patients with HCC. Patients with HCC diagnosed between 2010 and 2017 were analyzed from the United States National Cancer Database.
