1. Aim- To compare the efficacy of albumin when compared to placebo in the development or progression of AKI in patients with cirrhosis and spontaneous bacterial peritonitis who are at low risk for AKI development (i.e Serum Bilirubin <4 mg/dL and serum creatinine < 1 mg/dl at presentation)

This is a Phase 2, , randomized (1:1:1), placebo-controlled, 2-weeks, proof-of-concept study to evaluate the safety and tolerability as well as the mechanistic effect of oral administration of potent inhibitor of neutrophil elastase(Inhaled All trans retinoic acid and inhaled isotretinoin in
- In the last part of the previous century the increasing knowledge about the cardiovascular abnormalities that occur in advanced cirrhosis led researchers to design prospective randomized clinical trials assessing the effect of exogenous human albumin (HA) based on its well-established capacity to
BACKGROUND: Strong evidence suggests that human albumin solutions should not be used for fluid resuscitation except among patients undergoing therapeutic plasmapheresis and select patients with complications of liver cirrhosis (i.e. spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, or large volume ascitic fluid
This is a single-centre, pilot randomized trial study that includes 42 patients with gastric varices that will be classified according to the Sarin and Kumar classification into GOV II or IGV I with recently bleeding GV & high-risk GV (defined by Baveno VI consensus for primary
Globally, the mortality after any infection in cirrhosis patients is very high. The cumulative mortality in patients with infections was 43.5% (11,987 patients) where as the mortality rate without infection was 13.6% (2317 patients). Over the years, variceal bleeding causing death in cirrhosis has
Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is acknowledged as a highly effective treatment for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). Usually single fecal infusion achieves satisfactory cure rates of recurrent CDI). However, several retrospective studies show that severe clinical picture of
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer is still one of the most frequent malignancies in Europe. In United States the estimated new cases in 2010 were 21000 (12730 male and 8270 female) with 10570 estimated deaths (6350 male and 4220 female)[7,8]. In Italy the estimated new cases in 2013 were 13200 (7900 males
Albumin infusion has been shown to improve outcome in spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, to reverse hepatorenal syndrome combined with vasoconstrictors, and to prevent post-paracentesis circulatory dysfunction. These beneficial effects are associated with hemodynamic improvement reflected by
Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), defined as an infection of ascites in the absence of a contiguous source of infection.
Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a common and potentially fatal bacterial infection in patients with cirrhosis and ascites, occurring in 10 to 30% of patients,

Participants enrolled in this study will have pertinent clinical information entered into a database. Participants will then have spent peritoneal dialysate collected at least every 6 months and analyzed for markers of fibrosis. Patients undergoing a special type of peritoneal dialysis start call
