Core Tip |
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is in-creasing in prevalence and is expected to be the leading indication for liver transplantation in the foreseeable future. There is a growing body of evidence supporting the clinical importance of a thrombophilic state in patients with NASH. In NASH patients, the most severe hypercoagulable environment is found in patients with NASH cirrhosis. High-risk NASH patients (concomitant age > 60 years, obesity, diabetes and hypertension) have inferior post transplantation outcomes, however, how this group’s risk of clotting compares to other etio-logies of liver disease is unknown. In a retrospective nationwide United States based cohort, we provide further evidence of coagulation derangement in NASH and identify a new high-risk subtype in the high-risk NASH population. Whether or not this high-risk group may benefit from preventative anticoagulation remains unknown. |
