Hepatitis C virus (HCV) clearance markedly reduces the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); however, HCC continues to develop in a subset of patients, particularly in those with advanced fibrosis or cirrhosis. Leading hepatology societies, including Asian Pacific Association for the Study of the Liver, European Association for the Study of the Liver, American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, Korean Association for the Study of the Liver, Taiwan Association for the Study of the Liver, and Japan Society of Hepatology, have issued divergent guidelines for HCC surveillance after sustained virologic response, which reflects variations in regional patient populations, healthcare infrastructure, and policy priorities. While traditional risk stratification primarily centers on histological staging of fibrosis, an array of additional host-related factors, including age, sex, alcohol use, metabolic comorbidities, and genetic and epigenetic profiles, further influence individual HCC risks.

Patients with psoriasis experience significantly higher cardiovascular morbidity compared to the general population. Although certain psoriasis treatments may confer cardioprotective effects, current clinical guidelines addressing treatment continuation following major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) are lacking. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective cohort study using Korean health insurance data (January 2008-October 2021) to examine treatment modifications after MACE in patients with psoriasis.
