von Willebrand factor as a biomarker of clinically significant portal hypertension and severe portal hypertension: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2019
Objective This meta-analysis was performed to investigate the correlation between von Willebrand factor (vWF) antigen and hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) and to evaluate the diagnostic performance of vWF to detect clinically significant portal ...

NON-INVASIVE PREDICTORS OF PORTAL HYPERTENSION IN PATIENTS WITH HEPATITIS C VIRUS RELATED HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Egyptian Society of Parasitology, 2015
The reference standard for portal venous pressure measurement which is clinically important for estimating the feasibility of resection of hepatocellular carcinoma is the hepatic venous pressure gradient, which is invasive and expensive.

LIVER ABLATION IN CIRRHOTIC PATIENTS WITH CLINICALLY SIGNIFICANT PORTAL HYPERTENSION: CURRENT EVIDENCE, CHALLENGES, AND EMERGING ROLE OF ELASTOGRAPHY

open access: yesBuletinul Academiei de Ştiinţe a Moldovei: Ştiinţe Medicale
Liver ablation is a cornerstone therapy for early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), offering a curative-intent option for patients ineligible for resection or transplantation. However, the presence of clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH)

Large‐scale Whole‐Exome Sequencing Defines the Protein‐Coding Architecture of Retinal Structure, Visual Function, and Major Blinding Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Large‐scale whole‐exome sequencing in 356,982 UK Biobank participants defines the protein‐coding architecture of retinal structure, visual function, and major blinding diseases. Pleiotropic genes, including CFI, C3, and RIOX1, bridge multiple retinal phenotypes, while experimental validation of FYB2 implicates RPE barrier dysfunction, providing ...

Variability of transient elastography-based spleen stiffness performed at 100 Hz

open access: yesEuropean Radiology Experimental, 2023
Background Spleen stiffness measurement (SSM) performed by transient elastography at 100 Hz is a novel technology for the evaluation of portal hypertension in advanced chronic liver disease, but technical aspects are lacking.

Proteogenomic Profiling of Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Identifies Sex‐Differential Proteins and Candidate Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated proteogenomic analysis of 44,137 predominantly European‐ancestry UK Biobank participants aged 40–69 years identifies 12 robust proteins associated with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension. These proteins define a high‐mortality molecular endotype, support early detection and mortality prediction, reveal sex‐differential proteomic ...

Obliterative portal venopathy: A neglected and probably misdiagnosed disease with peculiar etiology in South America

open access: yesJGH Open, 2022
Background and Aim Obliterative portal venopathy (OPV) is one of the causes of non‐cirrhotic portal hypertension. However, many aspects of OPV remain unclear, including the etiology, pathogenesis, and natural history.

Portal Hypertension among Patients with Chronic Liver Disease Admitted to the Department of Internal Medicine of a Tertiary Care Centre

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2023
Introduction: Portal hypertension is increased pressure within the portal vein. A portal pressure gradient of more than 10 mmHg is defined as "clinically significant portal hypertension" due to manifestations such as splenomegaly, gastroesophageal ...
