Abstract-Vorschau
Aim: Liver stiffness (LS) is the novel gold standard to assess fibrosis stage in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis (1). However, we could recently demonstrated that alcoholic steatohepatitis needs to be considered (transaminase levels) prior to fibrosis assessment since it increases LS independently of fibrosis stage. We here validate our novel algorithm (2) in a larger study population of heavy trinkers undergoing…
