Tonight, as I left the clinic late, I saw the cleaning staff who quietly refresh every exam room, who organize and prepare each space with care.
We often don’t see them, but their work is vital.
Thank you, truly, for all you do. ❤️

Do cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs) worsen outcomes in alcohol-associated hepatitis (AH)?
We analyzed 936 hospitalized patients with AH across 14 countries (2015–2024).

✅ 46.6% had ≥1 CMRF
❌ CMRFs were NOT independently associated with mortality
⚠️ Independent predictors of death included age, alcohol intake, MELD score, and ACLF grade 2–3 📉
Our @juanpabloarab & Ekaterina Smirnova, Ph.D., won a $25K pilot award to use wearable biosensors PEth biomarkers for objective, real-world monitoring of alcohol use in liver disease patients. bit.ly/42ujiDw#livertwitter
One of many troubling things is that liver disease can go undetected for years. It's often asymptomatic early on. And the U.S. currently doesn't have robust systems for screening high-risk people before things devolve.

It is so hard to find research and career mentorship in the same place (or at all). @juanpabloarab has provided that for so many of us, myself included. We have also formed fantastic friendships with each other along the way. Full of ❤️ and forever grateful.

• Adding NAC to corticosteroids did NOT improve short- or intermediate-term mortality 🙅
• No meaningful reduction in HRS/ARF or major adverse liver outcomes vs steroids alone
Time to rethink routine NAC use in severe AH? #MedX@DDWMeeting
Watching @OmarAdnanA 🏹 his excellent posters today. He is not yet in residency and has multiple posters at DDW, and an oral. Also, he is just a great person, like the rest of @juanpabloarab 's super-talented mentees. This group is seriously inspiring
@ASRG_Liver@VCU_Liver 👏
What an incredible week at #DDW2026 in Chicago! 🎉
✅ 4 Poster Presentations

Alcohol is a carcinogen. Patients with alcohol liver disease (ALD) have higher cancer risk.
A large meta-analysis shows >2x increased risk of de novo malignancies in ALD patients after liver transplantation.
👉 We need systematic, intensified cancer surveillance.
