NAFLD and autoimmune hepatitis: Do not judge a book by its cover
(2020)Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease (almost 25% of the general population). Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a relatively rare liver disease of unknown aetiology characterized by ... -
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis or autoimmune hepatitis? Sometimes a closer look under the surface is needed
(2020)Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is nowadays the most common liver disease worldwide. Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a relatively rare disease of the liver characterised by female predominance, circulating ... -
Novel immunoassays for detection of CUZD1 autoantibodies in serum of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases
(2017)Pancreatic autoantibodies (PABs) are detected in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Their prevalence is higher in Crohn's disease (CrD) than in ulcerative colitis (UC). Glycoprotein 2 (GP2) and, more recently, ... -
