| 1 | MELD vs Child-Pugh and creatinine-modified Child-Pugh score for Dredicting survival in patients with decompensated cirrhosis显示文摘AIM: Model of End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) score has recently gained wide acceptance over the old Child-Pugh score in predicting survival in patients with decompensated cirrhosis, although it is more sophisticated. We compared the predictive values of MELD, Child-Pugh and creatinine modified Child-Pugh scores in decompensated cirrhosis. METHODS: A cohort of 102 patients with decompensated cirrhosis followed-up for a median of 6 mo was studied.Two types of modified Child-Pugh scores estimated by adding 0-4 points to the original score using creatinine levels as a sixth categorical variable were evaluated.RESULTS: The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves did not differ significantly among the four scores, but none had excellent diagnostic accuracy (areas:0.71-0.79). Child-Pugh score appeared to be the worst, while the accuracy of MELD was almost identical with that of modified Child-Pugh in predicting short-term and slightly better in predicting medium-term survival. In Cox regression analysis, all four scores were significantly associated with survival, while MELD and creatinine-modified Child-Pugh scores had better predictive values (c-statistics: 0.73 and 0.69-0.70) than Child-Pugh score (c-statistics: 0.65). Adjustment for gamma-glutamate transpeptidase levels increased the predictive values of all systems (c-statistics: 0.77-0.81). Analysis of the expected and observed survival curves in patients subgroups according to their prognosis showed that all models fit the data reasonably well with MELD probably discriminating better the subgroups with worse prognosis. CONCLUSION: MELD compared to the old Child-Pugh and particularly to creatinine-modified Child-Pugh scores does not appear to offer a clear advantage in predicting survival in patients with decompensated cirrhosis in daily clinical practice. | George V.

| 2 | Clinical impact of microbiome in patients with decompensated cirrhosis显示文摘Cirrhosis is an increasing cause of morbidity and mortality. Recent studies are trying to clarify the role of microbiome in clinical exacerbation of patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Nowadays, it is accepted that patients with cirrhosis have altered salivary and enteric microbiome, characterized by the presence of dysbiosis. This altered microbiome along with small bowel bacterial overgrowth, through translocation across the gut, is associated with the development of decompensating complications. Studies have analyzed the correlation of certain bacterial families with the development of hepatic encephalopathy in cirrhotics. In general, stool and saliva dysbiosis with reduction of autochthonous bacteria in patients with cirrhosis incites changes in bacterial defenses and higher risk for bacterial infections, such as spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, and sepsis. Gut microbiome has even been associated with oncogenic pathways and under circumstances might promote the development of hepatocarcinogenesis. Lately, the existence of the oral-gutliver axis has been related with the development of decompensating events. This link between the liver and the oral cavity could be via the gut through impaired intestinal permeability that allows direct translocation of bacteria from the oral cavity to the systemic circulation. Overall, the contribution of the microbiome to pathogenesis becomes more pronounced with progressive disease and therefore may represent an important therapeutic target in the management of cirrhosis. | Theodora Oikonomou George V Papatheodoridis Michael Samarkos Ioannis Goulis Evangelos Cholongitas | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,34: | 16 |

| 4 | Hepatocellular carcinoma in chronic hepatitis B patients under antiviral therapy显示文摘Patients with chronic hepatitis B are at increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),while the inhibition of viral replication can represent a reasonable target for HCC prevention.Interferon-αtherapy results in decreased HCC risk,which is more evident in patients with high baseline HCC risk.The majority of chronic hepatitis B patients are treated with a nucleos(t)ide analogue(NA)for several reasons including the nonsustained response after interferon-α.The effect of the first licensed and low genetic barrier NA,lamivudine,on HCC incidence,has been repeatedly evaluated.Lamivudine,compared to no treatment,reduces the HCC incidence,which may increase again in cases with lamivudine resistance.Emerging data with the currently first-line NAs,entecavir and tenofovir,suggest that they also reduce the HCC incidence.The treatment benefit in reduction of the HCC incidence is always greater in patients with high baseline HCC risk,particularly cirrhotics,and without virological remission under entecavir/tenofovir.However,the HCC risk is not eliminated even in the vast majority of patients who remain in virological remission under entecavir/tenofovir.Therefore,patients at increased baseline HCC risk should continue to undergo HCC surveillance even if they have achieved complete long-term inhibition of viral replication and improvements in liver histology. | John Vlachogiannakos George Papatheodoridis | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,47: | 9 |
| 5 | Role of Helicobacter pylorieradication in aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug users显示文摘Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) infection and the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) including aspirin at any dosage and formulation represent well-established risk factors for the development of uncomplicated and complicated peptic ulcer disease accounting for the majority of such cases. Although the interaction between H pylori and NSAID/aspirin use in the same individuals was questioned in some epidemiological studies, it has now become widely accepted that they are at least independent risk factors for peptic ulcer disease. According to data from randomized intervention trials, naive NSAID users certainly benefit from testing for H pylori infection and, if positive,H pylori eradication therapy prior to the initiation of NSAID. A similar strategy is also suggested for naive aspirin users, although the efficacy of such an approach has not been evaluated yet. Strong data also support that chronic aspirin users with a recent ulcer complication should be tested for H pyloriinfection and, if positive, receive H pylori eradication therapy after ulcer healing, while they appear to benefit from additional long-term therapy with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI).A similar approach is often recommended to chronic aspirin users at a high risk of ulcer complication. H pylori eradication alone does not efficiently protect chronic NSAID users with a recent ulcer complication or those at a high-risk, who certainly should be treated with long-term PPI therapy, but H pylori eradication may be additionally offered even in this setting. In contrast, testing for H pylorior PPI therapy is not recommended for chronic NSAID/aspirin users with no ulcer complications or those at a low risk of complications. | George V.

| 6 | Current treatment indications and strategies in chronic hepatitis B virus infection显示文摘The optimal approach to the management of several marginal cases with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is controversial. Serum HBV DNA and ami-notransferase levels, and the degree of necroinflammation and fibrosis determine the therapeutic decisions. All patients with elevated aminotransferase (> twice the upper limit of normal) and serum HBV DNA above 20 000 IU/mL should be treated. Liver biopsy is important for therapeutic decisions in cases with mild aminotransferase elevations and serum HBV DNA below 20 000 IU/mL. Chronic HBV patients who do not receive treatment should be followed for life. There are seven agents licensed for chronic hepatitis B: standard and pegylated interferon-alpha, lamivudine, adefovir, entecavir, telbivudine and tenofovir. One-year courses with pegylated interferon-alpha induce sustained off-therapy remission in 30%-32% of patients with HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B and in a smaller proportion of patients with HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B. Oral antivirals achieve initial on-therapy responses in the majority of patients, but are intended as long-term therapies. Viral suppression has favourable effects on patients' outcome and modifies the natural course of the disease. Viral resistance, however, is the major drawback of long-term oral antiviral therapy. Lamivudine monotherapy is associated with the highest and ente-cavir monotherapy with the lowest resistance rate so far. There has been no resistance to tenofovir, but afteronly 18 mo of treatment to date. The optimal first-line anti-HBV therapy with the best long-term cost/benefit ratio remains unclear. If oral antiviral agents are used, compliance should always be ascertained and HBV DNA levels should be regularly tested. | George V Papatheodoridis Spilios Manolakopoulos Athanasios J Archimandritis | 2008 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,45: | 7 |
| 7 | Current progress in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C显示文摘Over the last decade,the standard of care for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C has been the combination of pegylated-interferon-alfa(PEG-IFN) and ribavirin(RBV) which results in sustained virological response(SVR) rates of 75%-85% in patients with genotypes 2 or 3 but only of 40%-50% in patients with genotype 1.Currently,there are rapid and continuous developments of numerous new agents against hepatitis C virus(HCV),which are the focus of this review.Boceprevir and telaprevir,two first-generation NS3/4A HCV protease inhibitors,have been recently licensed in several countries around the world to be used in combination with PEGIFN and RBV for the treatment of genotype 1 patients.Boceprevir or telaprevir based triple regimens,compared with the PEG-IFN/RBV combination,improve the SVR rates by 25%-31% in treatment-na ve genotype 1 patients,by 40%-64% in prior relapsers,by 33%-45% in prior partial responders and by 24%-28% in prior null responders.At the same time,the application of response-guided treatment algorithms according to the on-treatment virological response results in shortening of the total therapy duration to only 24 wk in 45%-55% of treatment-na ve patients.There are,however,several challenges with the use of the new triple combinations in genotype 1 patients,such as the need for immediate results of HCV RNA testing using sensitive quantitative assays,new and more frequent adverse events(anemia and dysgeusia for boceprevir;pruritus,rash and anemia for telaprevir),new drug interactions and increasing difficulties in compliance.Moreover,the SVR rates are still poor in very difficult to treat subgroups of genotype 1 patients,such as null responders with cirrhosis,while there is no benefit for patients who cannot tolerate PEGIFN/RBV or who are infected with non-1 HCV genotype.Many newer anti-HCV agents of different classes and numerous combinations are currently under evaluation with encouraging results.Preliminary data suggest that the treatment of chronic HCV patients with well tolerated combinations of oral agents without PEG-IFN is feasible and may lead to a universal HCV cure over the next 5-10 years. | Alexandra Alexopoulou George V Papatheodoridis | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,42: | 6 |

| 9 | Review of the pharmacological management of hepatitis B viral infection before and after liver transplantation显示文摘The progress in treatment against hepatitis B virus(HBV)with the development of effective and well tolerated nucleotide analogues(NAs)has improved the outcome of patients with HBV decompensated cirrhosis and has prevented post-transplant HBV recurrence.This review summarizes updated issues related to the management of patients with HBV infection before and after liver transplantation(LT).A literature search using the PubMed/Medline databases and consensus documents was performed.Pre-transplant therapy has been initially based on lamivudine,but entecavir and tenofovir represent the currently recommended first-line NAs for the treatment of patients with HBV decompensated cirrhosis.After LT,the combination of HBV immunoglobulin(HBIG)and NA is considered as the standard of care for prophylaxis against HBV recurrence.The combination of HBIG and lamivudine is related to higher rates of HBV recurrence,compared to the HBIG and entecavir or tenofovir combination.In HBIG-free prophylactic regimens,entecavir and tenofovir should be the first-line options.The choice of treatment for HBV recurrence depends on prior prophylactic therapy,but entecavir and tenofovir seem to be the most attractive options.Finally,liver grafts from hepatitis B core antibody(anti-HBc)positive donors can be safely used in hepatitis B surface antigen negative,preferentially anti-HBc/anti-hepatitis B surface antibody positive recipients. | Evangelos Cholongitas George V Papatheodoridis | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,48: | 5 |
| 10 | Is there any progress in the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease?显示文摘Despite the fact that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) and its severe clinical form,non-alcoholic steatohepatitis,are becoming increasingly prevalent in the industrialised countries,there are no licensed pharmacological treatments for them.Weight loss and life modifications,antioxidant therapies and insulin-sensitising agents are the current treatment strategies and have all been tested with inconclusive results.Low sample numbers,inadequate treatment duration and invalid surrogate markers for treatment response might all account for these results.As NAFLD is a systemic rather than a liver disease,future trials should address the patient as a whole and also address cardiovascular risk factors. | Emmanuel A Tsochatzis George V Papatheodoridis | 2011 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Pharmacology and Therapeutics2011,2,1: | 4 |

| 12 | Interferon-free regimens in patients with hepatitis C infection and renal dysfunction or kidney transplantation显示文摘Treatment of patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD) and chronic hepatitis C(CHC) differs from that used in the general CHC population mostly when glomerular filtration rate(GFR) is below 30 m L/min, as sofosbuvir, the backbone of several current regimens, is officially contraindicated. Given that ribavirin free regimens are preferable in CKD, elbasvir/grazoprevir is offered in CHC patients with genotype 1 or 4 and ombitasvir/paritaprevir and dasabuvir in genotype 1b for 12 wk. Although regimens containing peginterferon with or without ribavirin are officially recommended for patients with CKD and genotype 2, 3, 5, 6, such regimens are rarely used because of their low efficacy and the poor safety and tolerance profile. In this setting, especially in the presence of advanced liver disease, sofosbuvirbased regimens are often used, despite sofosbuvir contraindication. It seems to have good overall safety with only 6% or 3.4% of CKD patients to discontinue therapy or develop serious adverse events without drug discontinuation. In addition, sustained virological response(SVR) rates with sofosbuvir based regimens in CKD patients appear to be comparable with SVR rates in patients with normal renal function. Treatment recommendations for kidney transplant recipients are the same with those for patients with CHC, taking into consideration potential drug-drug interactions and baseline GFR before treatment initiation. This review summarizes recent data on the current managementof CHC in CKD patients highlighting their strengths and weaknesses and determining their usefulness in clinical practice. | Evangelos Cholongitas Chrysoula Pipili George V Papatheodoridis | 2017 | World Journal of Hepatology2017,9,4: | 3 |
