For purposes of this study, data were collected retrospectively and prospectively from consecutive records according to predetermined criteria on forms coded for computer analysis. Total scores of 110 patients were correlated with length of stay, placement at discharge and scores in individual functional abilities. Analysis of the data reveals that an initial score over 40 on the Barthel index defines a population with a greater proportion of discharges to home and that patients with initial scores over 60 have a shorter length of stay. Further analysis indicates a predictable progression in the development of functional skills in this population so that with a Barthel score below 40, no one was independent in the mobility skills and fewer than 50% were independent in the very basic skills, such as feeding, grooming and sphincter control. A score of 60 appears to be a pivotal score where patients move from dependency to assisted independence.20:T4af,

ABSTRACT

The human liver is an essential multifunctional organ, and liver diseases are rising with limited treatment options. However, the cellular complexity and heterogeneity of the liver remain poorly understood. Here, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing of ~5,000 cells from normal liver tissue of 6 human donors to construct the first human liver cell atlas. Our analysis revealed previously unknown sub-types among endothelial cells, Kupffer cells, and hepatocytes with transcriptome-wide zonation of these populations. We show that the EPCAM⁺ population is highly heterogeneous and consists of hepatocyte progenitors, cholangiocytes and a MUC6⁺ stem cell population with a specific potential to form liver organoids. As proof-of-principle, we applied our atlas to unravel phenotypic changes in cells from hepatocellular carcinoma tissue and to investigate cellular phenotypes of human hepatocytes and liver endothelial cells engrafted into a humanized FAH^-/- mouse liver. Our human liver cell atlas provides a powerful and innovative resource enabling the discovery of previously unknown cell types in the normal and diseased liver.
