Targeted decrease of portal hepatic pressure gradient improves ascites control after TIPS
The river diagram demonstrates that after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt insertion (TIPS) the majority of patients without ascites and 50% of the patients with ascites detectable at ultrasound, show the best response in the long term follow‐up.

Pathogenic Mechanisms Underlying Cirrhotic Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
Cardiac dysfunction associated with cirrhosis in the absence of preexisting heart disease is a condition known as cirrhotic cardiomyopathy (CCM). Cardiac abnormalities consist of enlargement of cardiac chambers, attenuated systolic and diastolic contractile responses to stress stimuli, and repolarization changes.

Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
The occurrence of systemic hemodynamic abnormalities in cirrhosis has been recognized for more than half a century. These hemodynamic changes consist of a reduced peripheral vascular resistance and a compensatory increase in cardiac output leading to the hyperdynamic circulatory syndrome.
