An Automated Microfluidic System for Haemostasis Assessment in Cirrhosis With Thrombocytopenia
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.

Changing Epidemiology and Etiology of Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding
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

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
