Correlation and consistency analysis between various indirect portal pressure gradients and actual portal pressure gradient [PDF]

BMC Gastroenterology
Objective To evaluate the correlation and consistency between hepatic venous pressure gradient(F-HVPG) calculated as the wedged hepatic venous pressure (WHVP) minus free hepatic venous pressure (FHVP), I-HVPG calculated as WHVP minus inferior vena cava ...

Technique innovation of endoscopic ultrasound portal pressure gradient measurement using standard manometer set for portal hypertension assessment [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports, 2022
Portal hypertension (PH) is still a major challenge to be managed in clinical practice. However, hepatic vein pressure gradient (HVPG) measurement is not always reliable for portal hypertension (PH) diagnosis.

Early Dynamics of Portal Pressure Gradient After TIPS Insertion Predict Mortality. [PDF]

Aliment Pharmacol Ther
ABSTRACTBackgroundTransjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement leads to a reduction in portal pressure and an improvement in survival in patients with recurrent and refractory ascites and variceal haemorrhage. Prediction of post‐TIPS survival is primarily determined by factors identified before the TIPS procedure, as data collected ...

Correlation of pressure gradient in three hepatic veins with portal pressure gradient. [PDF]

World J Clin Cases, 2022
The liver is one of the most important organs in the human body, with functions such as detoxification, digestion, and blood coagulation. In terms of vascular anatomy, the liver is divided into the left and the right liver by the main portal vein, and there are three hepatic efferent veins (right, middle, and left) and two portal branches.

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided portal pressure gradient measurement in managing portal hypertension. [PDF]

World J Gastrointest Surg, 2023
Portal hypertension (PH) is still a challenging clinical condition due to its silent manifestations in the early stage and needs to be measured accurately for early detection. Hepatic vein pressure gradient measurement has been considered as the gold standard measurement for PH; however, it needs special skill, experience, and high expertise. Recently,

Effect of portal pressure gradient reduction on outcomes after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt in portal hypertension patients. [PDF]

World J Hepatol
BACKGROUND Portal hypertension (PHT), a complication of liver cirrhosis, is sometimes managed with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) to reduce portal pressure. Although effective, TIPS poses risks, including hepatic encephalopathy (HE). This study investigates whether a significant reduction in the portal pressure gradient (
