Prognostic Value of an Early Response to Tolvaptan and Its Clinical Implications in Patients With Cirrhosis and Hepatic Edema: A Nationwide Multicenter Cohort Study

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
In a nationwide multicenter cohort, an early response to tolvaptan (≥ 1.5‐kg weight loss within 7 days) was independently associated with improved long‐term survival in patients with cirrhosis and hepatic edema. Early initiation before renal impairment or hyponatremia may optimize treatment response and prognosis. ABSTRACT Aim Hepatic edema indicates a

Endoscopic Ultrasonography‐guided Variceal Therapy as Salvage Treatment for Rebleeding From Duodenal Varices Following Balloon‐occluded Retrograde Transvenous Obliteration

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Duodenal varices, though rare, are potentially life‐threatening complications of portal hypertension. Management is challenging when balloon‐occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) fails to achieve complete obliteration. Endoscopic ultrasonography‐guided variceal therapy (EUS‐VT) is effective for gastric varices, but reports of ...
