    Evaluation of the Hepatocellular Carcinoma Predictive Scores PAGE-B and mPAGE-B among Brazilian Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection
    (2022) SILVA, Ana Caroline Ferreira da; CUNHA-SILVA, Marlone; SEVA-PEREIRA, Tiago; MAZO, Daniel F.
    Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is intrinsically oncogenic and related to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Predictive scores of HCC have been developed but have been poorly studied in admixed populations. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the performance of PAGE-B and mPAGE-B scores for HCC prediction in HBV Brazilian patients and factors related to HCC occurrence. This is a retrospective study that evaluated patients followed at a tertiary university center. A total of 224 patients were included, with a median follow-up period of 9 years. The mean age at HBV diagnosis was 38.71 +/- 14.19 years, predominantly males (66.1%). The cumulative incidence of HCC at 3, 5, and 7 years was 0.993%, 2.70%, and 5.25%, respectively, being related in the univariate logistic regression analysis to male sex (p = 0.0461), older age (p = 0.0001), cirrhosis at HBV diagnosis (p < 0.0001), and higher values of PAGE-B and mPAGE-B scores (p = 0.0002 and p < 0.0001, respectively). Older age, male sex, and cirrhosis at HBV diagnosis were independently associated with HCC occurrence. The AUROCs of PAGE-B and mPAGE-B were 0.7906 and 0.7904, respectively, with no differences between them (p = 0.9767). In conclusion, both PAGE-B and mPAGE-B showed a correct prediction of HCC above 70% in this cohort.

    COST EFFECTIVENESS OF USING TERLIPRESSIN TO TREAT HEPATORENAL SYNDROME
    (2022) FERREIRA, Luciana Marcondes; TERRABUIO, Débora Raquel; FERREIRA, Caroline Marcondes; MAZO, Daniel Ferraz de Campos; HADDAD, Luciana Bertocco de Paiva
    ABSTRACT Background Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is the most severe form of acute kidney injury in patients with advanced cirrhosis, and it is associated with high mortality. It is usually diagnosed according to criteria defined by the International Ascites Club. Currently, the most frequently indicated pharmacological therapy for the treatment of HRS is a combination of splanchnic vasoconstrictors (terlipressin or norepinephrine) in combination with albumin. With the progressive increase in healthcare spending, it is important to conduct a cost-effectiveness analysis of pharmacological treatment in patients who are diagnosed with HRS. Objective: To perform a cost-effectiveness assessment for the use of terlipressin in combination with albumin to treat HRS in patients with cirrhosis. Methods: Economic evaluation of cost-effectiveness based on secondary data from studies showed the efficacy of terlipressin therapy compared with norepinephrine combined with albumin or albumin alone. The cost-effectiveness analysis was calculated using an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER), and a sensitivity analysis was developed by varying the values of therapies and probabilities. The Brazilian real was the currency used in the analysis, and the results were converted to US dollars. Results: After selection, eligibility, and evaluation of the quality of publications, the results demonstrated that administration of terlipressin or norepinephrine in combination with albumin in patients diagnosed with HRS type 1 was efficacious. The cost of treatment with terlipressin in combination with albumin was USD $1,644.06, administration of albumin alone was USD $912.02, and norepinephrine plus albumin was USD $2,310.78. Considering that the combination therapies demonstrated effectiveness, the incremental cost of terlipressin and norepinephrine in combination with albumin was USD $666.73, and an effectiveness of 0.570 was found for terlipressin in combination with albumin and 0.200 for norepinephrine in combination with albumin. The incremental effectiveness was 0.370, and the ICER was USD $1,801.97. Thus, the parameters of increasing cost per therapy and ICER indicated that the combined therapy of terlipressin plus albumin was cost effective compared to albumin alone or norepinephrine plus albumin in a public single-payer healthcare system. Conclusion: A cost-effectiveness analysis showed that terlipressin in combination with albumin when administered concomitantly to patients who were diagnosed with type 1 HRS is cost-effective compared to norepinephrine in combination with albumin administered in a controlled environment.

    Vanishing bile duct syndrome related to DILI and Hodgkin lymphoma overlap: A rare and severe case
    (2020) GRECA, Raquel D.; CUNHA-SILVA, Marlone; COSTA, Larissa B. E.; COSTA, Julia G. F.; MAZO, Daniel F. C.; SEVA-PEREIRA, Tiago; NASCIMENTO, Marlla M. C.; PEREIRA, Isadora E.; OLIVEIRA, Flavia C.; FARIA, Guilherme A. S.; NETO, Fernando L. P.; ALMEIDA, Jazon R. S.
    Vanishing bile duct syndrome is a rare acquired condition, characterized by progressive loss of intrahepatic bile ducts leading to ductopenia and cholestasis. It can be associated with infections, ischemia, drug adverse reactions, neoplasms, autoimmune disease, and allograft rejection. Prognosis is variable and depends on the etiology of bile duct injury. We report the case of a 25-year-old female with cholestatic hepatitis and concomitant intakes of hepatotoxic substances, such as garcinia, field horsetail, and ketoprofen. On suspicion of a drug-induced liver injury, the drugs were promptly withdrawn and ursodeoxycholic acid was started with initial clinical and laboratory improvement, and the patient was discharged from the hospital. One month later, she had a new increase in bilirubin levels and canalicular enzymes, requiring a liver biopsy that showed significant loss of intrahepatic bile ducts, which was compatible with vanishing bile duct syndrome. This was confirmed by using cytokeratin 19 on immunohistochemistry. There was subsequent lymph node enlargement in several chains, and relevant weight loss. Histological analysis of a cervical lymph node revealed nodular sclerosis-subtype classic Hodgkin lymphoma. In this setting, vanishing bile duct syndrome was related to Hodgkin lymphoma and a drug-induced liver injury overlap, leading to progressive cholestasis with a worse prognosis. The patient's response to chemotherapy was poor, requiring biological therapy with brentuximab vedotin. It is crucial for physicians to create a broad differential diagnosis in suspected vanishing bile duct syndrome patients, especially to rule out malignancies.

    S-nitroso-N-acetylcysteine attenuates liver fibrosis in experimental nonalcoholic steatohepatitis
    (2013) MAZO, Daniel F. C.; OLIVEIRA, Marcelo G. de; PEREIRA, Isabel V. A.; COGLIATI, Bruno; STEFANO, Jose T.; SOUZA, Gabriela F. P. de; RABELO, Fabiola; LIMA, Fabiana R.; ALVES, Venancio A. Ferreira; CARRILHO, Flair J.; OLIVEIRA, Claudia P. M. S. de
    S-Nitroso-N-acetylcysteine (SNAC) is a water soluble primary S-nitrosothiol capable of transferring and releasing nitric oxide and inducing several biochemical activities, including modulation of hepatic stellate cell activation. In this study, we evaluated the antifibrotic activity of SNAC in an animal model of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) induced in Sprague-Dawley rats fed with a choline-deficient, high trans fat diet and exposed to diethylnitrosamine for 8 weeks. The rats were divided into three groups: SNAC, which received oral SNAC solution daily; NASH, which received the vehicle; and control, which received standard diet and vehicle. Genes related to fibrosis (matrix metalloproteinases [MMP]-13, -9, and -2), transforming growth factor beta-1 [TGF beta-1], collagen-1 alpha, and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase [TIMP-1 and -2] and oxidative stress (heat-shock proteins [HSP]-60 and -90) were evaluated. SNAC led to a 34.4% reduction in the collagen occupied area associated with upregulation of MMP-13 and -9 and downregulation of HSP-60, TIMP-2, TGF beta-1, and collagen-1 alpha. These results indicate that oral SNAC administration may represent a potential antifibrotic treatment for NASH.

    Hand-foot syndrome due to hepatitis C therapy
    (2018) CUNHA-SILVA, Marlone; MAZO, Daniel; ARRELARO, Raquel; VAZ, Nayana; RABELLO, Marcello; LOPES, Tirzah; CORREA, Barbara; TORINO, Ana Beatriz; CINTRA, Maria; LORENA, Sonia; SEVA-PEREIRA, Tiago; ALMEIDA, Jazon
    INTRODUCTION. Direct-acting antivirals are new drugs for chronic hepatitis C treatment. They are usually safe and well tolerated, but can sometimes cause serious adverse effects and there is no consensus on how to treat or prevent them. We described a case of hand-foot syndrome due to hepatitis C virus interferon-free therapy. METHODS. We report the case of a 49-year-old man with compensated liver cirrhosis due to chronic hepatitis C genotype 1, treatment-naive, who started viral treatment with sofosbuvir, simeprevir and ribavirin for 12 weeks. RESULTS. At the sixth week of treatment he had anemia, requiring a lower dose of ribavirin. At the tenth week, he had erythematous, pruritic, scaly and flaky lesions on hands and feet, which showed a partial response to oral antihistamines and topical corticosteroids. It was not necessary to discontinue antiviral treatment, but in the first week after the end of treatment, there was worsening of injuries, including signs of secondary infection, that required hospitalization, antibiotics and oral corticosteroid, with progressive improvement. Biopsy of the lesions was consistent with pharmacodermia. The patient had sustained a virological response, despite the side effect. He had a history of pharmacodermia one year ago attributed to the use of topiramate, responsive to oral corticosteroid. CONCLUSION. Interferon-free therapies can rarely lead to severe adverse reactions, such as skin lesions. Patients receiving ribavirin combinations and those who had a history of pharmacodermia or skin disease may be more susceptible. There is no consensus on how to prevent skin reactions in these patients.

    Impaired anti-HBV vaccine response in non-cirrhotic chronic HCV is not overcome by double dose regimen: randomized control trial
    (2023) MEDEIROS, Roseane P.; TERRAULT, Norah A.; MAZO, Daniel F.; OLIVEIRA, Claudia P.; DODGE, Jennifer; ZITELLI, Patricia M.; LOPES, Marta H.; CARRILHO, Flair J.; PESSOA, Mario G.
    Introduction and Objectives: Some studies suggest chronic HCV infection diminishes responses to the antiHBV vaccine. We evaluated the efficacy of double versus standard dose HBV vaccination among HCV patients without cirrhosis.Patients and Methods: 141 adults with untreated chronic HCV were randomized to HBV vaccination with double dose (40 mu g) or standard dose (20 mu g) at 0,1 and 6 months; 70 healthy HCV-negative patients given standard dose served as controls. Vaccine response was defined by anti-HBs >= 10 mIU/mL.Results: 128 patients (60 double, 68 standard doses) completed the study. Patients were of median age 52 years, 61% female, 60% fibrosis <2 of 4, and 76% genotype 1 with median 6-log 10 IU/mL HCV RNA. Overall seroprotection rate was 76.7% (95% CI: 65-87) in the 40 mu g versus 73.5% (95% CI: 63-84) in the 20 mu g dose HCV-positive groups (p =0.68) and 91.2% (95%CI:84-99) in HCV-negative controls (p =0.011 and 0.003, respectively). In multivariate logistic regression, vaccine dose (double vs. standard dose) was not associated with vaccine response (OR=0.63, p =0.33). Of 32 HCV-infected patients who were non-responders to 3- doses, 25 received the fourth dose of vaccine. The fourth dose seroconversion rate for the 40 mu g and 20 mu g groups were 45.5% and 21.4%, respectively.Conclusions: In HCV-infected patients without cirrhosis, impaired responses to HBV vaccination cannot be overcome by the use of double dose HBV vaccination, but adding a fourth dose of vaccine for non-responders may be an effective strategy. Other adjuvant measures are needed to enhance seroconversion rates in these patients. Trial register: U 1111-1264-2343 (www.ensaiosclinicos.gov.br)(c) 2022 Fundacion Clinica Medica Sur, A.C.

    Hypolactasia is associated with insulin resistance in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis
    (2016) MAZO, Daniel Ferraz de Campos; MATTAR, Rejane; STEFANO, Jose Tadeu; SILVA-ETTO, Joyce Matie Kinoshita da; DINIZ, Marcio Augusto; DUARTE, Sebastiao Mauro Bezerra; RABELO, Fabiola; LIMA, Rodrigo Vieira Costa; CAMPOS, Priscila Brizolla de; CARRILHO, Flair Jose; OLIVEIRA, Claudia P.
    AIM To assess lactase gene (LCT)-13910C>T polymorphisms in Brazilian non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) patients in comparison with healthy controls. METHODS This was a transverse observational clinical study with NAFLD patients who were followed at the Hepatology Outpatient Unit of the Hospital das Clinicas, Sao Paulo, Brazil. The polymorphism of lactase non-persistence/ lactase persistence (LCT-13910C>T) was examined by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique in 102 liver biopsy-proven NAFLD patients (steatosis in 9 and NASH in 93) and compared to those of 501 unrelated healthy volunteers. Anthropometric, clinical, biochemical and liver histology data were analyzed. Continuous variables were compared using the t or Mann-Whitney tests, and categorical data were compared with the Fisher's exact test. Univariate logistic regression and multivariate logistic regression adjusted for gender and age were performed. RESULTS No differences in the LCT-13910 genotype frequencies were noted between the NAFLD patients (66.67% of the patients with steatosis were CC, 33.33% were CT, and none were TT; 55.91% of the patients with NASH were CC, 39.78% were CT, and 4.3% were TT; P = 0.941) and the healthy controls (59.12% were CC, 35.67% were CT, and 5.21% were TT) or between the steatosis and NASH patients. That is, the distribution of the lactase non-persistence/lactase persistence polymorphism (LCT-13910C>T) in the patients with NAFLD was equal to that in the general population. In the NASH patients, the univariate analysis revealed that the lactase nonpersistence (low lactase activity or hypolactasia) phenotype was associated with higher insulin levels (23.47 +/- 15.94 mu U/mL vs 15.8 +/- 8.33 mu U/mL, P = 0.027) and a higher frequency of insulin resistance (91.84% vs 72.22%, P = 0.02) compared with the lactase persistence phenotype. There were no associations between the LCT genotypes and diabetes (P = 0.651), dyslipidaemia (P = 0.328), hypertension (P = 0.507) or liver histology in these patients. Moreover, in the NASH patients, hypolactasia was an independent risk factor for insulin resistance even after adjusting for gender and age [OR = 5.0 (95%CI: 1.35-20; P = 0.017)]. CONCLUSION The LCT-13910 genotype distribution in Brazilian NAFLD patients was the same as that of the general population, but hypolactasia increased the risk of insulin resistance in the NASH patients.

    Current aspects of renal dysfunction after liver transplantation
    (2022) PACHECO, Mariana P.; CARNEIRO-D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto; MAZO, Daniel F.
    The development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) after liver transplantation (LT) exerts a severe effect on the survival of patients. The widespread adoption of the model for end-stage liver disease score strongly impacted CKD incidence after the procedure, as several patients are transplanted with previously deteriorated renal function. Due to its multifactorial nature, encompassing pre-transplantation conditions, perioperative events, and nephrotoxic immunosuppressor therapies, the accurate identification of patients under risk of renal disease, and the implementation of preventive approaches, are extremely important. Methods for the evaluation of renal function in this setting range from formulas that estimate the glomerular filtration rate, to non-invasive markers, although no option has yet proved efficient in early detection of kidney injury. Considering the nephrotoxicity of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) as a factor of utmost importance after LT, early nephroprotective strategies are highly recommended. They are based mainly on delaying the application of CNI during the immediate postoperative-period, reducing their dosage, and associating them with other less nephrotoxic drugs, such as mycophenolate mofetil and everolimus. This review provides a critical assessment of the causes of renal dysfunction after LT, the methods of its evaluation, and the interventions aimed at preserving renal function early and belatedly after LT.

    Sorafenib prevents liver fibrosis in a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) rodent model
    (2015) STEFANO, J. T.; PEREIRA, I. V. A.; TORRES, M. M.; BIDA, P. M.; COELHO, A. M. M.; XERFAN, M. P.; COGLIATI, B.; BARBEIRO, D. F.; MAZO, D. F. C.; KUBRUSLY, M. S.; D'ALBUQUERQUE, L. A. C.; SOUZA, H. P.; CARRILHO, F. J.; OLIVEIRA, C. P.
    Liver fibrosis occurring as an outcome of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) can precede the development of cirrhosis. We investigated the effects of sorafenib in preventing liver fibrosis in a rodent model of NASH. Adult Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a choline-deficient high-fat diet and exposed to diethylnitrosamine for 6 weeks. The NASH group (n=10) received vehicle and the sorafenib group (n=10) received 2.5 mg.kg(-1).day(-1) by gavage. A control group (n=4) received only standard diet and vehicle. Following treatment, animals were sacrificed and liver tissue was collected for histologic examination, mRNA isolation, and analysis of mitochondrial function. Genes related to fibrosis (MMP9, TIMP1, TIMP2), oxidative stress (HSP60, HSP90, GST), and mitochondrial biogenesis (PGC1 alpha) were evaluated by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Liver mitochondrial oxidation activity was measured by a polarographic method, and cytokines by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Sorafenib treatment restored mitochondrial function and reduced collagen deposition by nearly 63% compared to the NASH group. Sorafenib upregulated PGC1 alpha and MMP9 and reduced TIMP1 and TIMP2 mRNA and IL-6 and IL-10 protein expression. There were no differences in HSP60, HSP90 and GST expression. Sorafenib modulated PGC1 alpha expression, improved mitochondrial respiration and prevented collagen deposition. It may, therefore, be useful in the treatment of liver fibrosis in NASH.

    Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Long-Term Type 2 Diabetes: Role of rs738409 PNPLA3 and rs499765 FGF21 Polymorphisms and Serum Biomarkers
    (2022) MANA, Mauy Frujuello; PARISI, Maria Candida R.; CORREA-GIANNELLA, Maria Lucia; NETO, Arnaldo Moura; YAMANAKA, Ademar; CUNHA-SILVA, Marlone; CAVALEIRO, Ana Mercedes; SANTOS, Cristina Rodrigues dos; PAVAN, Celia Regina; SEVA-PEREIRA, Tiago; DERTKIGIL, Sergio S. J.; MAZO, Daniel F.
    Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) signaling and genetic factors are involved in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) pathogenesis. However, these factors have rarely been studied in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) patients from admixed populations such as in those of Brazil. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate rs738409 patanin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein (PNPLA3) and rs499765 FGF21 polymorphisms in T2D, and their association with NAFLD, liver fibrosis, and serum biomarkers (FGF21 and cytokeratin 18 levels). A total of 158 patients were included, and the frequency of NAFLD was 88.6%, which was independently associated with elevated body mass index. Significant liver fibrosis (>= F2) was detected by transient elastography (TE) in 26.8% of NAFLD patients, and was independently associated with obesity, low density lipoprotein, and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT). PNPLA3 GG genotype and GGT were independently associated with cirrhosis. PNPLA3 GG genotype patients had higher GGT and AST levels; PNPLA3 GG carriers had higher TE values than CG patients, and FGF21 CG genotype patients showed lower gamma-GT values than CC patients. No differences were found in serum values of FGF21 and CK18 in relation to the presence of NAFLD or liver fibrosis. The proportion of NAFLD patients with liver fibrosis was relevant in the present admixed T2D population, and was associated with PNPLA3 polymorphisms.
