Years in waiting. But so sad UK can’t be involved due to the own licence and MHRA. We could have recruited in days

I haven’t read all of it, but you could argue if they all had a Fib-4 +\- another NIT then most with low plts will have cirrhosis and pin point who needs surveillance anyway (rather than mass screening)

V excited to join this amazing team as the EASLnews YI representative

Now I'm no AI expert, but that's kind of the point! AI is here to stay & we all need to embrace it. This Taskforce aims to make AI accessible to the wider hepatology community. Lots of exciting things to come

Very hard Tom Marjot. Many of my clinical NHS colleagues have 100s of publications, are investigators on several trials, bring in multi-million pound grants and thrive off using research to improve patient care. However, our neighbouring universities do little to recognise this

Non-invasive tests are proving to be as good as, if not better than, liver biopsy in predicting patient prognosis for steatotic liver disease. doi: 10.1001/jama.2024.1447

Recent Phase 2 trial results show that daily low-dose significantly reduced liver fat in patients over 6 months, compared to placebo. A promising step forward, though further study in a larger sample size is necessary to confirm these
