Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is becoming a common cause of liver cirrhosis requiring liver transplantation (LT). Cardiovascular complications related to metabolic syndrome and NASH recurrence in the transplanted liver may affect the outcome of LT in these patients. We compared the outcomes of
We read with interest the article by Bhagat et al. 1 regarding outcomes of liver transplantation (LT) in patient with cirrhosis due to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) versus patients with cirrhosis due to alcoholic liver disease. This retrospective study showed no statistical differences in post
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is an important component of hepatic decompensation, which reduces survival in patients with cirrhosis. The Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score has been used to predict survival of patients with cirrhosis. The aims of this study were to determine whether HE is
