Twenty-seven clinical and laboratory data the subsequent course of 93 consecutive adult patients who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation for various chronic advanced diseases were analyzed retrospectively to assess risk factors early major bacterial infection death after procedure. Forty-one (44%) had during hospitalization transplantation. The mortality rate was 70.7% in with 7.7% without (p < 0.001).

Novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan and rapidly spread, affecting >10 million cases worldwide. Caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) primarily manifesting as an failure with interstitial alveolar pneumonia, it can also affect multiple organs. Kidney involvement was underestimated early reports its role remains controversial. The aim of this study to analyse the kidney damage COVID-19 outcome.

Hepatitis C recurrence after liver transplantation (LT) is universal, and frequently leads to cirrhosis death. The aim of our study was assess the efficacy safety 48-weeks full-dose peg-interferon-alpha-2a (n = 4) or alpha-2b 51) plus ribavirin (>11 mg/kg/day) in a multicentric cohort 55 patients > =12 months LT. All subjects had histologically proven HCV recurrence, excluding severe cholestatic recurrence. Mean age 54.3 +/- 9.7, 77% male, 90.9% genotype 1, 32.7% cirrhotics. but 5 received...

Surgical site infections are common bacterial in orthotopic liver transplantation. The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence, timing, location, and risk factors, specifically antibiotic prophylaxis, for surgical infections.

Treatment with direct-acting antivirals (DAA) eradicates hepatitis C virus (HCV) from most chronic carriers. Information on regression of liver fibrosis and the influence HIV is scarce in cured patients.All consecutive HCV-infected individuals treated DAA at our institution were examined.

Mortality and re-admission rates for decompensated acute heart failure (AHF) is increasing overall risk stratification might be challenging. We sought to evaluate the prognostic role of systemic venous ultrasonography in patients hospitalized AHF. prospectively recruited 74 AHF with a NT-proBNP level above 500 pg/mL. Then, multi-organ ultrasound assessments (lung, inferior vena cava (IVC), pulsed-wave Doppler (PW-Doppler) hepatic, portal, intra-renal femoral veins) were performed at...

Background. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection causes morbidity in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients, either by direct injury or association with chronic allograft rejection other opportunistic infections. Ganciclovir is the treatment of choice, but this agent requires intravenous administration, which affects its feasibility for long‐term use. Valganciclovir, has an oral bioavailability 60%, proven to be useful prophylaxis CMV high‐risk SOT recipients and treating retinitis persons...
