Treatment Goals for Primary Biliary Cholangitis, an Australian Perspective.

Key takeaways

This review lays out treatment goals for primary biliary cholangitis, a liver disease where the immune system attacks the small bile ducts. It is written for doctors in Australia. If untreated, the disease can scar the liver badly enough to need a transplant. The article reports no new results and is about the liver, not the kidneys.
