up to 14.3 % of patients (1 out of 7) with a definitive diagnosis of primary biliary cholangitis remain undiagnosed, thus preventing monitoring and treatment. More than a quarter are at risk of advanced liver disease and its complications. Patients lost in the system must be identified and retrieved, and searching hospital databases is a suitable approach to meet this goal.
