Effect of splenectomy based on inverse probability weighting of the propensity score on Wilson's disease with hypersplenism: A retrospective cohort study

Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2023
Hypersplenism is a long-term complication of Wilson's disease (WD). Patients often have to stop copper excretion treatment due to the decrease in blood cell count aggravation of abnormal liver function, anaemia, bleeding caused by coagulation dysfunction.

Covered Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt Improves Hypersplenism-Associated Cytopenia in Cirrhosis

Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 2022
Patients with cirrhosis often develop portal hypertension-associated splenomegaly and hypersplenism, potentially causing severe cytopenia. Systematic assessment on the impact of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) implantation on ...

CD11b+CD43hiLy6Clo splenocyte‐derived macrophages exacerbate liver fibrosis via spleen–liver axis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
A population of splenic monocytes migrate into the liver and shift to macrophages, which account for the exacerbation of liver fibrosis. Abstract Background and Aims Monocyte‐derived macrophages (MoMFs), a dominant population of hepatic macrophages under inflammation, play a crucial role in liver fibrosis progression.

Partial splenic embolization combined with endoscopic therapies and NSBB decreases the variceal rebleeding rate in cirrhosis patients with hypersplenism: a multicenter randomized controlled trial

Hepatology International, 2021
Global research on endoscopic therapies in combination with partial splenic embolization (PSE) for variceal hemorrhage (VH) is limited. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopy plus PSE (EP) treatment in comparison to ...
