Imaging-guided interventions modulating portal venous flow: Evidence and controversiesKey points
Summary: Portal hypertension is defined by an increase in the portosystemic venous gradient. In most cases, increased resistance to portal blood flow is the initial cause of elevated portal pressure.

Hepatic microcirculation and mechanisms of portal hypertension. [PDF]
The liver microcirculatory milieu, mainly composed of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and hepatic macrophages, has an essential role in liver homeostasis, including in preserving hepatocyte function, regulating ...

A community of portal hypertension [PDF]
Portal hypertension is an important, if not the most important, factor affecting the clinical course of patients with cirrhosis, as it can predict the development of cirrhosis-related complications, such as variceal bleeding, ascites, and hepatic ...

Portal hypertension in cirrhosis: Pathophysiological mechanisms and therapyKey points
Summary: Portal hypertension, defined as increased pressure in the portal vein, develops as a consequence of increased intrahepatic vascular resistance due to the dysregulation of liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) and hepatic stellate cells ...

The portal hypertension syndrome: etiology, classification, relevance, and animal models. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Portal hypertension is a key complication of portal hypertension, which is responsible for the development of varices, ascites, bleeding, and hepatic encephalopathy, which, in turn, cause a high mortality and requirement for liver ...
