Filter this list of studies by location, status and more.

1. A Study of Predictors of Renal Insufficiency Following Orthotopic Liver Transplantation

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to see if certain pre-transplant markers are able to predict how the kidney will respond after a liver transplant.

2. Pulmonary Vascular Complications of Liver Disease-2

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine if certain genes, hormones, or other factors predict the risk of developing lung vessel disease in patients with liver disease and whether they determine outcome.

3. Pharmacogenomics (PGx) Results and Clinical Data of Established Patients with Liver Disease to Assess Current and Future Therapeutic Relevance of PGx Testing

   Rochester, Minn.

   The goal of this study is to examine the current and (potential) future therapeutic relevance of PGx testing in established patients with liver disease seen in the Division of Gastroenterology/Hepatology, in order to improve patient clinical care at Mayo Clinic with more effective and efficient prescribing of medications.

4. A Registry of Liver Tissue for Research

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of the Hepatic Tissue Research Registry is to establish a local program to procure resected liver tissue and to gather critical patient and research information that will be utilized to develop a comprehensive biomedical database. This Registry data will be made accessible to scientists at Mayo, researchers outside of Mayo who have collaborations with Mayo researchers and to further biomedical and clinical research in liver biology, toxicology, cell transplantation, liver support therapy, and pathology.
