1/2 Sad to hear about the passing of Professor Sir Roy Calne, the pioneer of Europe's first successful liver transplant in 1968. His groundbreaking work at Addenbrooke's Hospital changed the history for those with life-threatening liver diseases, offering a second chance at life.

#Hepatitis B can be prevented with a safe and effective vaccine. The vaccine is usually given soon after birth with boosters a few weeks later. It offers nearly 100% protection against the virus. bit.ly/3b8J3Cc

Ever wondered why lean people are more likely to die from MAFLD compared to their non-lean counterparts? 🤔#LiverTwitter #medtwitter New study shows that they have ⬆️ telomere shortening which is linked to increased mortality.
