Great #GIJC tonight with our moderators @HowardTLeeMD @MKriss_MD and expert @DrEmamaullee about the importance of LDLT and need to address disparities to expand access! #livertwitter Thank you for having me.

@GiJournal @amjtransplant @8pm @HowardTLeeMD @DrEmamaullee #GIJC Q6 (and final!): LDLT is still not as prevalent in the US compared to other countries. There are only 20 states with LDLT activity in 2019. What are the barriers and how can we address? Should we focus on developing high-volume LDLT centers in each state/region?

Key ? Of the night IMO. How do we work to do urgent LDLTs in sick pts? Ignoring covid of course. I think with right donor we can/should be more proactive. #gijc @GiJournal

@GiJournal @amjtransplant @8pm @HowardTLeeMD @DrEmamaullee #GIJC Q4: Meta-regression analysis in this study showed that lower MELD at transplant was associated with improved 1-yr pt survival. Should we consider LDLT in patients with high MELD (e.g., >25)? aasldpubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/he…
