Specializations
Hepatology & Metabolic Liver Disease
The investigator concentrates on progressive liver conditions linked to metabolic dysfunction, including Non‑Alcoholic Steatohepatitis and severe decompensation such as Acute‑on‑Chronic Liver Failure.
- NASH pathophysiology
- Fibrosis progression
- Liver transplantation outcomes
- Biomarker development for cirrhosis
- Therapeutic strategies for metabolic liver disease
Multi‑center collaboration across 27 Spanish hospitals enhances recruitment and data robustness.
Biliary & Pancreatic Oncology
Research efforts address malignancies of the biliary tree and pancreas, with a focus on Cholangiocarcinoma and Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma.
- Targeted therapies for intra‑hepatic cholangiocarcinoma
- Molecular profiling of gallbladder cancer
- Neoadjuvant approaches for pancreatic cancer
- Surgical outcomes in biliary malignancies
- Immunooncology in hepatobiliary tumors
Cross‑institutional participation accelerates enrollment of rare tumor cohorts.
Respiratory Infectious Diseases
The investigator explores lung infections caused by atypical pathogens, notably Mycobacterial Lung Infection due to the Mycobacterium avium complex.
- Diagnostic criteria for NTM disease
- Treatment algorithms for Mycobacterium avium complex
- Impact of comorbid lung disease on infection outcomes
- Resistance patterns in respiratory pathogens
- Patient‑reported outcomes in chronic lung infection
Integration of pulmonology expertise across the network supports comprehensive patient assessment.
Sleep‑Related Breathing Disorders
Investigations target obstructive breathing events in overweight adults, centered on Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
- Severity grading in obese adults
- Cardiovascular risk associated with OSA
- Therapeutic efficacy of CPAP
- Weight‑loss interventions combined with OSA treatment
- Quality‑of‑life metrics in OSA patients
Collaboration with metabolic clinics enables holistic management of sleep‑related disorders.
Autoimmune & Systemic Inflammatory Diseases
Beyond hepatology, the investigator examines systemic autoimmunity, including Rheumatoid Arthritis and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.
- Biologic therapy response in RA
- Joint damage imaging biomarkers
- Immune modulation strategies in SLE
- Overlap of hepatic autoimmunity with systemic disease
- Patient stratification for targeted immunotherapies
Rheumatology units within the affiliated hospitals provide essential expertise for these studies.
