Fenofibrate Mitigates Hypertriglyceridemia in Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis Patients Treated With Cilofexor/Firsocostat
Patients with advanced fibrosis due to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are at high risk of morbidity and mortality. We previously found that a combination of the farnesoid X receptor agonist cilofexor (CILO) and the acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) inhibitor firsocostat (FIR) improved liver histology and biomarkers in NASH with advanced fibrosis but was associated with hypertriglyceridemia. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of icosapent ethyl (Vascepa ®) and fenofibrate to mitigate triglyceride elevations in NASH patients treated with CILO and FIR.

QuickStroop, a Shortened Version of EncephalApp, Detects Covert Hepatic Encephalopathy with Similar Accuracy within One Minute
Covert Hepatic Encephalopathy (CHE) is associated with poor outcomes but is often not diagnosed due to the time requirement. Psychometric hepatic encephalopathy (PHES) is the gold standard against which EncephalApp Stroop has been validated. However, EncephalApp (5 runs each in “Off” and “On” state) can take up to 10 minutes. Aim: Define the smallest number of EncephalApp runs needed for comparable accuracy to as the total EncephalApp using CHE on PHES as gold standard. (Source: Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology)
