This study aims to understand how bariatric surgery affects the body's tissues, like fat, muscle, and liver, and how it improves insulin sensitivity. Researchers will collect tissue and blood samples from 500 adults undergoing surgery or other procedures. The goal is to learn the…

This study follows 300 patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis who receive early liver transplants, before the usual 6-month sobriety period. Researchers will track how many survive one year after transplant and how many return to drinking. The goal is to better understand the r…

This study tests whether MRI and ultrasound can accurately measure liver fat in children aged 10-14, both those with obesity and those at a healthy weight. Researchers will check if the scans are reliable and easy to perform. The goal is to develop a non-invasive tool to diagnose…

This study tests whether special PET scans can accurately measure fat, swelling, and scarring in the liver of people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Researchers will compare scan results with standard liver biopsies from 120 adults. If successful, this could lead …

This study looks at how a single dose of the experimental drug GZR4 injection behaves in people with mild, moderate, or severe liver impairment compared to those with normal liver function. The goal is to understand the drug's safety and how the body processes it. 36 adults with …

This study planned to test a technique called radiofrequency track cautery during liver, kidney, or spleen biopsies in patients at high risk for bleeding. The idea was to use a small heated probe to seal the biopsy track and reduce bleeding. However, the study was withdrawn befor…

This study looks at immune cells from people with autoimmune diseases (like lupus), people with infections, and healthy volunteers. Researchers want to understand how these cells differ and what makes them attack the body in autoimmune conditions. The study involves blood and bon…

This study watches 200 people with lung, gut, or hormone diseases over time using special brain scans (PET). It aims to see how these diseases change brain activity and whether those changes can predict tumor return, spread, or survival. No new treatment is tested—just observatio…

This observational study follows 11 patients with chronic hepatitis B and delta coinfection and liver cirrhosis who are already receiving the antiviral drug Bulevirtide. Researchers want to see if suppressing the virus reduces portal hypertension—a dangerous buildup of pressure i…
