    EASL Studio Podcast: Does it really matter whether we call it ACLF or acute decompensation?

    This episode questions whether assigning the label “ACLF” to a deteriorating patient truly alters clinical decisions, or if focusing on the specifics of organ failure and reversibility is more useful. Experts debate the real-world utility of prognostic scores, the clarity (or confusion) created by multiple definitions, and whether the ACLF concept drives urgency, facilitates transplant access, or improves outcomes. A thought-provoking look at where terminology meets bedside care. Moderator: Tom Marjot  Speakers: Paolo Angeli and Julia Wendon This EASL Studio is supported by GENFIT.

    EASL Studio Podcast: The Clinical Blind Spot: Are We Neglecting Alcohol?

    This EASL Studio explores the discrepancy between the huge burden of patients hospitalised with, and dying from, alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) or MetALD, versus the same disease’s near non-existence from population data. The panel will discuss whether current classification systems (heavily favoring metabolic causes) misrepresent the true burden of ALD and MetALD, and what clinicians can do to better map the role of alcohol in liver patients. Moderator: Maja Thiele Speakers: Brian Lee, Mzamo Mbelle, Elisa Pose All EASL Studio Podcasts are available on EASL Campus. Click here to see all EASL Video Podcasts on Apple Podcasts.
