NCT ID NCT03576859
First seen Mar 25, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study looked at 38 adults getting a liver transplant to see if a failing liver makes less of a natural substance called pyrophosphate, which prevents calcium buildup in blood vessels. Researchers measured pyrophosphate levels before and after the transplant. The goal was to learn why people with fatty liver disease often have hardened arteries, not to test a new treatment.
