BACKGROUND: The diagnostic performance of biochemical scores and artificial neural network models for portal hypertension and cirrhosis is not well established.
Portal hypertension (PHT) is a key event in the evolution of different chronic liver diseases and leads to the morbidity and mortality of patients. The traditional reliable PHT evaluation method is a hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) measuremen...

Recently, there have been many developments and improvements in portal hypertension surgery, but there are still many controversies regarding the surgical indications, the timing of surgery, and the choice of surgical procedures. Minimally invasive l...
Radiomics and deep learning have recently gained attention in the imaging assessment of various liver diseases. Recent research has demonstrated the potential utility of radiomics and deep learning in staging liver fibroses, detecting portal hyperten...
The hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is the gold standard for cirrhotic portal hypertension (PHT), but it is invasive and specialized. Alternative non-invasive techniques are needed to assess the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). Here, ...
Background Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is an antibody-drug conjugate approved for use in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer. Case reports have suggested an association between T-DM1 and portal hypertension. Purpo...
BACKGROUND: A high portal pressure gradient (PPG) is associated with an increased risk of failure to control esophagogastric variceal hemorrhage and refractory ascites in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. However, direct measurement of PPG is in...
BACKGROUND: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is an effective intervention for managing complications of portal hypertension, particularly acute variceal bleeding (AVB). While effective in reducing portal pressure and preventing re...
