Prognostic Value of Liver Stiffness in Advanced Chronic Liver Disease After Hepatitis C Virus Eradication

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background & Aim Sustained‐virological‐response (SVR) after direct‐acting‐antiviral (DAA) therapy improves outcomes in patients with HCV‐related compensated‐advanced‐chronic‐liver‐disease (cACLD). However, it remains unclear whether absolute post‐SVR LSM or LSM reduction better predicts prognosis after SVR.

Liver and Spleen Stiffness as Non‐Invasive Tools Assessing Liver Congestion in Patients With Budd‐Chiari Syndrome

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Assessing liver congestion and portal hypertension (PHT) in Budd–Chiari syndrome (BCS) remains challenging. We evaluated liver and spleen stiffness measurements (LSM, SSM) obtained by transient elastography as non‐invasive tools for identifying clinically meaningful liver congestion in BCS.

An Automated Microfluidic System for Haemostasis Assessment in Cirrhosis With Thrombocytopenia

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background & Aims Conventional laboratory tests do not capture platelet–vessel wall interactions (primary haemostasis) occurring in vivo, limiting guidance before invasive procedures. This is relevant in patients with thrombocytopenia, hallmark of advanced cirrhosis. Microfluidic assays may overcome these limitations.

Can Endothelin-1 Levels in Patients with Esophageal Variceal Bleeding at Admission Predict Rebleeding Within 5 Days?

open access: yes
Background/Aims: Portal hypertension complicating liver cirrhosis is associated with vascular resistance, possibly due to overexpression of humoral vasoconstrictors, including endothelin.

Successful Endoscopic Sealing of Gastric Perforation With Tissue Adhesive Following Endoscopic Treatment for Gastric Fundal Variceal Bleeding: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Gastric perforation after endoscopic treatment of gastric fundal variceal bleeding is extremely rare. In carefully selected patients with early, small perforations and limited peritoneal contamination, endoscopic tissue adhesive injection combined with conservative management may provide a feasible nonsurgical rescue strategy.

Changing Epidemiology and Etiology of Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Gastroenterology
Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) is defined as bleeding from the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum, whereas lower gastrointestinal bleeding originates from below the ligament of Treitz, including the small bowel and colon. The incidence of UGIB has

Unusual Spinal Epidural and Paraspinal Venous Engorgement Secondary to Hepatosplenic Schistosomiasis: A Rare Cause of Severe Low Back Pain

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe low back pain from spinal epidural and paraspinal venous engorgement secondary to hepatosplenic schistosomiasis is rare. MRI revealed dilated epidural veins and neural foraminal narrowing. The patient was managed conservatively with analgesia and carvedilol for portal hypertension and subsequently experienced complete resolution of back
