As the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) remains the current gold standard for diagnosing portal hypertension in cirrhosis, its clinical application is limited by invasiveness, high cost, and restricted availability. Given the urgent need for noninvasive techniques to dynamically monitor portal vein pressure (PVP), contrast‐enhanced ...

Thrombocytopenia is common in hepatocellular carcinoma and may increase bleeding risk during antiangiogenic therapy, yet the clinically relevant platelet threshold remains uncertain. We found that a baseline platelet count < 50 × 109/L was associated with bleeding; patients below this cutoff had a substantially higher bleeding rate than those with ...
