    Abstract Introduction: Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS)-acute kidney injury (HRS-AKI) is a specific type of kidney injury seen in patients with cirrhosis and ascites and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. It is characterized by rapid deterioration of renal function due to reduced renal blood flow secondary to portal hypertensive splanchnic and systemic vasodilation. Early diagnosis and treatment of HRS-AKI are associated with greater likelihood of improvement in renal function, lower need for dialysis, and better post-transplant outcomes.
    Areas covered: This review discusses the diagnostic criteria for HRS-AKI, which has undergone several key changes over the last decade, with an aim to secure an early diagnosis and aid swift treatment initiation. Additionally, this review outlines the current treatment paradigms for HRS-AKI.
    Expert opinion: In the last 20 years, there have been several advances in understanding the pathophysiology and natural course of HRS-AKI. These have led to critical changes in its definition and diagnostic algorithm. However, prognosis of HRS-AKI remains dismal with no significant improvement in HRS-AKI reversal or HRS-related mortality over this time. We discuss several gaps in the current understanding and management of HRS-AKI that will benefit from further research.

    Abstract Biliary tract complications are an important cause of morbidity and mortality after liver transplantation (LT) occurring in 5 % to 25 % of patients. The most common biliary complication in LT recipients are strictures representing approximately half of these biliary adverse events. Bile duct strictures can be divided into anastomotic biliary strictures (ABS) and non-anastomotic biliary strictures (NABS) depending on their location in the biliary tree, being ABS the most encountered type. Several risk factors identified in previous studies can predispose to the development of ABS and NABS, especially those related to surgical techniques and donor characteristics. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is the recommended noninvasive imaging test for detecting post-LT biliary strictures given its high sensitivity and specificity. Once the diagnosis of a biliary stricture after LT has been made, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is the preferred initial therapy with good short and long-term results. Biliary sphincterotomy plus balloon dilation (BD) with placement of multiple plastic stents (MPS) has been the classic endoscopic approach for treating ABS, although fully-covered metallic stents (FCSEMS) have emerged as an alternative thanks to shorter total duration of stenting and fewer endoscopic procedures compared to MPS. In this review, we provide a practical update on the management of biliary strictures after LT focusing our attention on the available evidence in the endoscopic therapy.

    Abstract The diversification of the three major marine faunas during the Phanerozoic was intimately coupled to the evolution of the biogeochemical cycles of carbon and nutrients via nutrient runoff from land and the diversification of phosphorus-rich phytoplankton. Nutrient input to the oceans has previously been demonstrated to have occurred in response to orogeny and fueling marine diversification. Although volcanism has typically been associated with extinction, the eruption of continental Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) is also a very significant, but previously overlooked, source of phosphorus involved in the diversification of the marine biosphere. We demonstrate that phosphorus input to the oceans peaked repeatedly following the eruption and weathering of LIPs, stimulating the diversification of nutrient-rich calcareous and siliceous phytoplankton at the base of marine food webs that in turn helped fuel diversification at higher levels. These developments were likely furthered by the evolution of terrestrial floras. Results for the Meso-Cenozoic hold implications for the Paleozoic Era. Early-to-middle Paleozoic diversity was, in contrast to the Meso-Cenozoic, limited by nutrient-poor phytoplankton resulting from less frequent tectonism and poorly-developed terrestrial floras. Nutrient runoff and primary productivity during the Permo-Carboniferous likely increased, based on widespread orogeny, the spread of deeper-rooting forests, the fossil record of phytoplankton, and biogeochemical indices. Our results suggest that marine biodiversity on geologic time scales is unbounded (unlimited), provided sufficient habitat, nutrients, and nutrient-rich phytoplankton are also available in optimal amounts and on optimal timescales.
