Glucose changes in cirrhosis patients around liver transplant
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how the body processes sugar (glucose) in people with cirrhosis who are waiting for a liver transplant. It aims to track changes in blood sugar control before and after transplant, which may help improve care for patients with liver disease.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study follows people who are getting a liver transplant (including repeat transplants) to monitor changes in their body using test results. It may help doctors understand how patients are doing after transplant and improve care over time.
This study looks at people with type 2 diabetes who are either waiting for a liver transplant or have already had one. Researchers want to understand how diabetes treatment affects outcomes before and after transplant.
This study looks at how blood sugar levels during surgery affect the risk of infections after a liver transplant. It aims to see if better blood sugar control can reduce complications.
This study tests whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help manage blood sugar levels in patients who have just received a liver transplant and have high blood sugar in the hospital.
This study looks at blood sugar problems in people who received a stem cell transplant from a donor. It aims to understand how common these problems are and what might affect them.
This study is for people with end-stage cirrhosis who are on the liver transplant waitlist at this hospital. It aims to understand how getting a liver transplant may affect people with and without diabetes-related issues.
