Fatigue is the most common complication of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and can be debilitating. Numerous interventions have been trialed targeting several proposed mechanisms of PBC-associated fatigue. We sought to summarize and perform a meta-analysis to determine the efficacy BACKGROUND
Fatigue is a major clinical problem in many patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). An effective treatment has not been defined. Recently, a large proportion of patients with these diseases was found to have symptoms of depression. Because
Background: Fatigue affects 50% of primary biliary cholangitis patients and is severe in approximately 20%, significantly affecting quality of life. The pathogenesis of fatigue in primary biliary cholangitis is poorly understood. This
BACKGROUND
In primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) fatigue is a major clinical problem. Abnormal amino acid (AA) patterns have been implicated in the development of fatigue in several non-hepatological conditions but for PBC and PSC no data are available. This
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease. Half of patients experience debilitating fatigue, which is currently untreatable. Previous studies have shown muscle bioenergetic abnormalities in PBC, including increased muscle acidosis with exercise linked to the
Patients with Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) have experienced major therapeutic progress during the last four decades. An effective first line therapy, ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), is available from which all patients, responders as well as 'incomplete' responders, appear to benefit according to
NI-0801 is a fully human monoclonal antibody against chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10), which is involved in the recruitment of inflammatory T cells into the liver. The safety and efficacy of NI-0801 was assessed in patients with primary biliary cholangitis. In this open-label phase 2a
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) occurs as a result of immune-mediated damage to bile ducts, with an associated inflammatory response leading to progressive fibrosis and loss of patency. This loss of patency leads, in turn, to hepatic accumulation of bile acids, resulting in liver damage with
Primary biliary cholangitis is a chronic, cholestatic liver disease that may progress to cirrhosis with complications of end-stage liver disease. Approved treatment options include ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and obeticholic acid (OCA) but novel therapies are being Patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC, formerly primary biliary cirrhosis) and insufficient treatment response or risk factors exhibit a remarkably increased risk for disease progression and associated complications. Furthermore, extrahepatic manifestations may considerably reduce quality
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a rare autoimmune liver disease characterized by chronic cholestasis. Treatment with the accepted primary therapy ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) has been shown to be associated with delayed disease progression probably through reduced impact of cholestatic injury on
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic syndrome of unknown etiology frequently associated with inflammatory bowel disease and characterized by diffuse inflammation and fibrosis of the intra and/or extrahepatic bile ducts. Recent studies seem to favor autoimmunity in the
BACKGROUND
Data concerning the usefulness and type of drugs employed to treat patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis are controversial. Ursodeoxycholic acid has been shown to be a useful agent, however the drug dosage and its effect on the clinical course are still under debate.

BACKGROUND
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is an autoimmune chronic disease of the liver that can progress to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. It affects approximately 1 in 4,000 with a 10:1 female to male ratio. The diagnosis of PBC can be made based on serum antimitochondrial antibodies
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease characterized by inflammation and fibrosis of the bile ducts, resulting in end-stage liver disease and reduced life expectancy. PSC primarily affects young and middle-aged men, often in association with underlying
