Dr. Huiguo Ding: AMMON-OHE Model for Risk Stratification of Outpatient Cirrhosis Patients for Overt Hepatic Encephalopathy

The occurrence of overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) in cirrhosis patients leads to a decrease in their health-related quality of life, along with a significant increase in the risk of hospitalization and death. At the 58th Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL 2023) and the EASL Congress 2023, Dr. María Pilar Ballester and her team from the Clinical Hospital of the University of Valencia in Spain introduced a new model for assessing the risk of OHE in outpatient cirrhosis patients - the AMMON-OHE model, which can effectively predict the risk of the first episode of OHE. Dr Huiguo Ding's team from Capital Medical University Affiliated Beijing You'an Hospital, invited by Hepatology Digest, reviewed this research for readers to learn and reference.

Dr. Jing Zhang: Team’s 7 Achievements in the Fields of Fatty Liver, Cirrhosis, and Hepatitis C, Research Insights, and Future Directions

From November 10th to 14th, 2023, the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) Annual Meeting 2023 was held in Boston, USA. Professor Jing Zhang and her team from Beijing Youan Hospital, Capital Medical University, have long focused on scientific research in chronic liver diseases. Seven research findings from the team were included in the conference and presented in poster form, covering non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) [1-3], cirrhosis [4-5], and hepatitis C [6-7]. "Hepatology Digest" had the privilege of inviting Professor Jing Zhang for an interview at the conference to introduce the research findings, share insights into clinical research, and discuss topics of interest and future research directions. The interview video and some research content are shared below.
