ABSTRACT Background and Aims The role of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in older adults remains controversial because of limited risk‐stratification tools. We aimed to assess whether sarcopenia and myosteatosis are independently associated with post‐TIPS mortality and overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) in patients aged ≥ 70 years,

ABSTRACT Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic immune‐mediated inflammatory arthropathy primarily affecting the axial skeleton but may involve peripheral joints, particularly the hips. Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head represents a severe, underrecognized complication whose pathogenesis in AS is multifactorial—encompassing disease ...
