The clinical burden of liver cirrhosis in the past years, including the pandemic
On the final day of this year's EASL Congress in Milan Italy (Saturday, 8 June 2024), we met with A-TANGO early-career scientist (ECS) Julian Pohl, a medical doctor at the Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, at his poster (Poster-ID: SAT-452) to hear about how the clinical burden of cirrhosis and acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) has evolved and changed over the past years. The COVID-19 pandemic had particular effects on the hospitalisation rate of cirrhotic patients and the severity and mortality of the disease. Watch the full video on YouTube for more insights.
