Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Mauricio García-Saenz-de-Sicilia's research focuses on the medical management of advanced liver disease and liver transplantation. His work investigates strategies for risk stratification in liver transplant candidates, including the use of computed tomography coronary calcium scores for coronary artery disease assessment and cystatin C for evaluating kidney dysfunction and survival. García-Saenz-de-Sicilia also studies endoscopic management techniques for gastric neoplasms and the role of alpha-fetoprotein in liver allocation for transplantation. His recent publications address emerging areas such as endohepatology and the application of drug-coated balloons in cardiovascular interventions within the context of solid organ transplantation. He has authored 42 publications, with a total of 475 citations, and holds an h-index of 12.
