Family Planning in Liver Transplant: Patient and Provider Knowledge and Practices
Julia Ritchie, Dominika Seidman, Yanin Srisengfa, Emily R. Perito, Monika Sarkar – 24 June 2020 – Fertility is often impaired in adolescents and women with cirrhosis, but it is rapidly restored after liver transplantation (LT). Early and unplanned pregnancies confer increased risks to maternal, fetal, and graft health, underscoring the need for reproductive counseling. However, data on reproductive practices or counseling in the LT setting are limited.

Comparison of Clinical Outcomes of Induction Regimens in Patients Undergoing Liver Transplantation for Acute Liver Failure
Chimaobi M. Anugwom, Justin R. Parekh, Christine Hwang, Malcolm MacConmara, William M. Lee, Thomas M. Leventhal – 24 June 2020 – Spontaneous survival rates in acute liver failure (ALF) are vastly improved by liver transplantation (LT). However, the value of induction agents beyond steroids continues to be debated. To understand the potential benefit of different induction regimens in the ALF population, we compared overall survival of recipients undergoing LT in the United States for ALF.

Vinay Sundaram, Nadim Mahmud, Giovanni Perricone, Dev Katarey, Robert J. Wong, Constantine J. Karvellas, Brett E. Fortune, Robert S. Rahimi, Harapriya Maddur, Janice H. Jou, Michael Kriss, Lance L. Stein, Moses Lee, Rajiv Jalan, the Multi‐Organ Dysfunction, Evaluation for Liver Transplantation (MODEL) Consortium – 23 June 2020 – Recent data have demonstrated >80% 1‐year survival probability after liver transplantation (LT) for patients with severe acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF). However, longterm outcomes and complications are still unknown for this population.
