Alcoholic Hepatitis Network Observational Study
In Brief
An observational study for Alcoholic Hepatitis. Completed, enrolled 1,133 participants across 9 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this research study is to create a clinical database and bio-repository. To do this, we will obtain blood, urine, saliva, and stool samples (e.g., biological samples) and personal health information from you to use in future research studies related to alcoholic hepatitis or other diseases. Part of your blood sample will be used to extract your DNA. DNA is the genetic material that gives us unique characteristics. We are doing this research study because we are trying to find out more about how and why illnesses related to alcoholic hepatitis or other diseases occur in people. To do this, we will study the biological samples and personal health information from healthy and sick people. A "biological sample" is usually blood, but can be any body fluid. "Personal Health Information" includes such items as your name, age, gender, race, and/or your medical information. It can also include data from measurements and tests that you had while participating in another research study or that were done during the course of your regular medical care or doctor visits.
