Scoping review and structured audit reveals reporting gaps in biliary atresia organoid research, highlighting the need for standardized reporting frameworks.
Biliary atresia (BA) is the leading cause of pediatric obstructive cholestasis and a major indication for liver transplantation in infants. Organoid models are increasingly used to investigate BA pathogenesis and therapeutic responses, but incomplete methodological and clinical reporting may limit cross-study comparison and translational interpretation. This study aimed to map the landscape of BA-related organoid research, identify major reporting gaps, and propose Biliary Atresia Minimum Reporting Standard (BA-MRS) as a preliminary framework for improving reporting completeness.
