Predicting bile duct problems after liver transplant
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at people who had their first liver transplant at Sun Yat-sen University First Affiliated Hospital between 2016 and 2021. It aims to create a simple tool to predict the risk of bile duct problems after the transplant.
