Gene Therapy00:59

Gene Therapy

27.6K
Gene therapy is a technique where a gene is inserted into a person’s cells to prevent or treat a serious disease. The added gene may be a healthy version of the gene that is mutated in the patient, or it could be a different gene that inactivates or compensates for the patient’s disease-causing gene. For example, in patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) due to a mutation in the gene for the enzyme adenosine deaminase, a functioning version of the gene can be...

Group Therapy01:26

Group Therapy

417
Group therapy is a sociocultural approach to psychological treatment, where individuals with shared psychological challenges come together under the guidance of a mental health professional. This therapeutic modality offers unique opportunities for individuals to connect, share, and grow within the context of a supportive group. By fostering mutual understanding and collaboration, group therapy can address a range of psychological concerns effectively, often complementing or surpassing the...

Psychodynamic Therapy01:29

Psychodynamic Therapy

549
Psychodynamic therapies emphasize the exploration of unconscious processes and early childhood experiences as fundamental contributors to psychological difficulties. These therapies, deeply rooted in Freud's psychoanalytic theory, aim to uncover and resolve unconscious conflicts, granting individuals insights that promote emotional and behavioral healing. Contemporary psychodynamic approaches have evolved, integrating a broader range of influences and methodologies while still valuing the...

Humanistic Therapy01:24

Humanistic Therapy

348
Humanistic therapies emphasize personal growth, self-understanding, and the fulfillment of human potential. Rooted in the belief that individuals inherently strive toward self-actualization, these approaches encourage clients to explore their feelings and experiences in a supportive, nonjudgmental environment. Humanistic therapies differ from psychodynamic approaches by focusing on conscious experiences, present circumstances, and the potential for self-improvement rather than past conflicts...

Modeling in Therapy01:26

Modeling in Therapy

427
Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.
Participant Modeling
Participant modeling involves therapists demonstrating calm and effective behaviors in...

Area of Science:

  • Hepatology
  • Immunology
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic liver disease requiring long-term management.
  • First-line therapy for AIH often involves corticosteroids, but a subset of patients do not achieve or maintain remission.
  • Identifying effective second- and third-line treatment strategies is crucial for improving outcomes in non-responsive AIH cases.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current and emerging treatment options for autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) in patients who have not responded to first-line therapy.
  • To provide guidance on recommended approaches for clinicians managing refractory AIH.
  • To discuss novel therapeutic agents currently under investigation.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of published studies on second- and third-line treatments for AIH.
  • Analysis of clinical trial data for emerging therapies.
  • Synthesis of evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of various treatment modalities.

Main Results:

  • Budesonide may be less effective than prednisone.
  • Mycophenolate mofetil is most beneficial for azathioprine intolerance.
  • Infliximab shows the most evidence among biologic agents for AIH.
  • Several novel therapies (IL-2, Tregs, BAFF inhibitors, immunoproteasome inhibitors) are in early clinical trials.
  • Limited evidence exists for many reported second- and third-line agents.

Conclusions:

  • Treatment selection for refractory AIH depends on individual patient factors, including tolerance to prior therapies.
  • Emerging therapies show promise but require further investigation, particularly in underrepresented populations like Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.
  • Future research necessitates multicenter collaboration and molecularly-guided therapeutic exploration.
