taurine and Liver Failure

taurine has been researched along with Liver Failure in 5 studies

Liver Failure: Severe inability of the LIVER to perform its normal metabolic functions, as evidenced by severe JAUNDICE and abnormal serum levels of AMMONIA; BILIRUBIN; ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE; ASPARTATE AMINOTRANSFERASE; LACTATE DEHYDROGENASES; and albumin/globulin ratio.

Trial Outcomes

All Cause Mortality During the Study.

To describe proportion of infants who died secondary to any cause, related or unrelated to Fish Oil Emulsion. (NCT00738101)
Timeframe: From initiation to end of study (End of Study : Discontinuation of Fish Oil Emulsion, Death, Transplant, or Discharge from the hospital, whichever is achieved first, up to 5 years).

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
Fish Oil Emulsion Arm30

All-cause Mortality up to Hospital Discharge

To describe number and percentage of infants who died secondary to any cause, related or unrelated to Fish Oil Emulsion. (NCT00738101)
Timeframe: Anytime from initiation of study to discharge from the hospital.

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
Fish Oil Emulsion Arm40

Growth Z-scores for Weight

The Z-score indicated the number of standard deviations away from the mean. A weight Z-score of 0 is equal to the mean. A weight Z-score of ≤ -2 indicates an underweight status, while a weight Z-score of ≥ 2 indicates overweight or obese status. (NCT00738101)
Timeframe: From initiation to end of study (End of Study : Discontinuation of Fish Oil Emulsion, Death, Transplant, or Discharge from the hospital, whichever is achieved first, up to 5 years).

Interventionz-score (Mean)
Fish Oil Emulsion Arm-1.48

Liver or Multi-visceral Transplant

To describe the number and percentage of infants who required liver or multi-visceral transplant. (NCT00738101)
Timeframe: From initiation to end of study (End of Study : Discontinuation of Fish Oil Emulsion, Death, Transplant, or Discharge from the hospital, whichever is achieved first, up to 5 years).

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)

Time to Resolution of Parenteral Nutrition Associated Cholestasis Prior to End of Study

Time in days from the initiation of fish oil emulsions (initiation of study) until resolution of cholestasis as defined by serum conjugated bilirubin≤ 2 mg/dL prior to EOS (end of study). (NCT00738101)
Timeframe: From initiation to end of study (End of Study : Discontinuation of Fish Oil Emulsion, Death, Transplant, or Discharge from the hospital, whichever is achieved first, up to 5 years).
