Thomas Horvatits, Andreas Drolz, Michael Trauner, Valentin Fuhrmann – 19 June 2019 – The frequency of acquired liver injury and failure in critical illness has been significantly increasing over recent decades.

Andersen – 18 June 2019 – Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) mortality rates are increasing as a result of rising incidence and limited curative treatment(s) for patients with advanced disease. NOTCH pathway reactivation has been reported in biliary malignancies to conflicting degrees, hindering prioritization of key therapeutic targets within the network and identification of candidate responder patients for NOTCH‐directed therapies.
