ABSTRACT Background Orally administered Ascelia‐manganese‐based contrast agent (ACE‐MBCA) is used for liver MRI, but its feasibility in patients with hepatic dysfunction remains unknown. Purpose To investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and safety of ACE‐MBCA in subjects without/with hepatic impairment.

Determinants of Early Renal Function Recovery After TIPS in Patients With Portal Hypertension
ABSTRACT Renal dysfunction frequently occurs in patients with portal hypertension and is linked to unfavorable clinical outcomes. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has the potential to enhance renal perfusion through portal decompression; however, factors predicting early improvement in renal function remain insufficiently defined ...
