Description
Rebeca Bailén and a large team test whether liver stiffness predicts complications after stem cell transplant, in this 2026 Europe PMC paper. Pre-existing liver damage worsens transplant outcomes, but classic risk scores ignore modern stiffness measurement by Fibroscan. Their patients received post-transplant cyclophosphamide to prevent graft-versus-host disease.
Just over one hundred patients were scanned before transplant and again two weeks after, then followed for about a year. Survival and complication rates were charted, and stiffness cutoffs were derived for liver toxicity, vein-blocking disease and graft-versus-host liver involvement. The study weighs stiffness as a practical addition to transplant risk assessment.
