Editors can manage the whole submission/review/revise/publish process.

Interested authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts  through Online Submission System or send as an e-mail attachment to the Editorial Office at editorialoffice@scitechnol.com 

Liver Biology

Liver is the glandular organ that stores and metabolizes nutrients, detoxifies, and produces bile salts. Liver is the largest organ of human body. The study of anatomy and functions of the liver is known as Liver Biology.

Liver Physiology

The study of functions and activitiesof the liver is known as Liver Physiology. It also dealswith the way in which the Liver and its parts function

Liver Functions

Functions of the liver include:
Production of Bile,  which helps carry away waste and break down fats in the small intestine during digestion,
Production of proteins for blood plasma and detoxification of blood.

Liver Pathology

The study of Liver diseases is called Liver pathology. Liver diseases can be inherited or caused by a variety of factors that damage the liver, such as viruses and alcohol use. Liver diseases include the following conditions: Cirrhosis, Inflammation or hepatitis.

Hepatology

Hepatology is the branch of medicine that incorporates the study, prevention and diagnosis of liver, gallbladder, biliary tree, and pancreas as well as management of their disorders but is not limited to, the study of acute and chronic hepatitis, viral hepatitis, genetic and metabolic liver diseases and their complications.

Liver Disease Diagnosis

Liver disease can often be difficult to diagnose because its symptoms can be vague and easily confused with other health problems. Blood tests can look for the presence of liver inflammation or screen for antibodies or virus particles that might indicate a specific form of liver Disease. These tests are called Liver Tests.

Translational Hepatology

The fundamental concept underlying the Translational Hepatology is that human disease can serve as a window into broad biological processes, the understanding of which could, in turn, lead to treatments for these and other diseases.

Immunology of Hepatobiliary systems

The hepatobiliary system is essential for digestion and includes: the liver, pancreas, bile ducts and the gallbladder. Many disorders and diseases can affect these organs of hepatobiliary system. Immunology deals with the defence mechanisms including all physical, chemical and biological properties of the organism that help it to combat its susceptibility to foreign organisms, material, etc.

Gastrointestinal Disorders

The medical specialty devoted to the study, diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the digestive system. These disorders may affect the esophagus (swallowing tube), stomach, small intestine, large intestine (colon), rectum, liver, gallbladder, or pancreas.

Transplantation Biology

The science of transferring a graft from one part of the body to another or from one individual to another is known as Transplantation. The graft may consist of an organ, tissue, or cells. If donor and recipient are the same individual, the graft is autologous. If donor and recipient are genetically identical it is syngeneic. If donor and recipient are any other same-species individuals, the graft is allogeneic. If the donor and recipient are of different species, it is called xenogeneic.

Transplantation Complications

Complications of a liver transplant can include rejection, an increased risk of infection, graft failure, biliary conditions and a higher risk of developing certain conditions – including some types of cancer.

Transplantation & Immunosuppressive Management

Immunosuppression involves an act that reduces the activation or efficacy of the immune system. Some portions of the immune system itself have immunosuppressive effects on other parts of the immune system, and immunosuppression may occur as an adverse reaction to treatment of other conditions.

Posttransplantation Care

After liver transplantation care must be taken because the complications don’t arise soon after the transplantation. They may arise after 2 or 3 weeks. Hence patients must be shifted to ICU and must be under observation. This is known as Post Transplantation care.

Digestive Disorders

Digestive disorder is any health problems that occurs in the digestive tract. Some common problems include Heart burn/GERD, Irritable bowel syndrome and Lactose intolerence. Symptoms may include Bloating, diarrhoea, gas, stomach pain and stomach cramps.

Liver Cancers

It is also known as Hepatic Cancer, which starts in the liver. It is a condition that happens when normal cells in the liver become abnormal and grow out of control into cáncer.

Liver Hepatitis

Hepatitis is swelling and inflammation of liver. Hepatitis is most commonly caused by viral infection. Other causes of Hepatitis include autoinmune hepatitis (a disease occuring when the body makes antibodies against the liver tissue) and hapatitis that occurs as a secondary result of medications, drugs, toxins and alcohol.

Liver Cirrhosis

Cirrhosis is a slowly progressing Disease in which healthy liver tissue is replaced with scar tissue, eventually preventing liver from functioning properly. The scar tissue blocks the flow of blood through the liver and slows the processing of nutrients, hormones, drugs and naturally produced toxins.

Liver Failure

Liver failure is a life threatening condition that demands urgent medical care. Most often, liver failure occurs gradually and over many years. Rare condition known as acute liver failure occurs rapidly within 48hrs and difficult to detect initially.

Liver Regeneration

The liver has a remarkable capacity to regenerate after injury and to adjust its size to match its host. Within a week after partial hepatectomy, which, in typical experimental settings entails surgical removal of two-thirds of the liver, hepatic mass is back essentially to what it was prior to surgery.

Liver Disease Complications

These include high blood pressure in the veins that supply the liver, swelling inthe legs and abdomen, enlargement of spleen, bleeding, infections, malnutrition, jaundice, bone diseases, increased risk of liver cáncer and acute-or-chronic cirrosis.

Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process):
Journal of Liver: Disease & Transplantation is participating in the Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process (FEE-Review Process) with an additional prepayment of $99 apart from the regular article processing fee. Fast Editorial Execution and Review Process is a special service for the article that enables it to get a faster response in the pre-review stage from the handling editor as well as a review from the reviewer. An author can get a faster response of pre-review maximum in 3 days since submission, and a review process by the reviewer maximum in 5 days, followed by revision/publication in 2 days. If the article gets notified for revision by the handling editor, then it will take another 5 days for external review by the previous reviewer or alternative reviewer.

Acceptance of manuscripts is driven entirely by handling editorial team considerations and independent peer-review, ensuring the highest standards are maintained no matter the route to regular peer-reviewed publication or a fast editorial review process. The handling editor and the article contributor are responsible for adhering to scientific standards. The article FEE-Review process of $99 will not be refunded even if the article is rejected or withdrawn for publication.

The corresponding author or institution/organization is responsible for making the manuscript FEE-Review Process payment. The additional FEE-Review Process payment covers the fast review processing and quick editorial decisions, and regular article publication covers the preparation in various formats for online publication, securing full-text inclusion in a number of permanent archives like HTML, XML, and PDF, and feeding to different indexing agencies.
