Prognostic performance of endoscopic ultrasound-guided portal pressure gradient: preliminary results from the EVADIPP study

Background and Aims: Clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) is the main driver of hepatic decompensation, and its early identification allows timely initiation of preventive therapies.

Should we routinely measure portal pressure in patients with cirrhosis, using hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) as guidance for prophylaxis and treatment of bleeding and re-bleeding? Yes!

, 2011
Portal hypertension is key to the natural history of cirrhosis. The standard way to assess portal hypertension is the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). HVPG has been convincingly shown to be a strong predictor of variceal bleeding and survival. In

Frequent, Intense and Prolonged Human‐Perceived Heat Waves Over the Arabian Peninsula in Recent Decades

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The spatial distribution of WBGT exhibits a widespread and significant warming trend across the Arabian Peninsula (AP), with, particularly, strong increases observed over the central and northern inland and eastern coastal regions of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Qatar, where trends exceed ~0.25°C decade−1.

ENSO or the Atlantic: Which Actually Governs the Hydrological Vulnerability of the Caatinga?

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study challenges the traditional ENSO‐centric paradigm of rainfall variability in the Caatinga by demonstrating that the Tropical Atlantic exerts a statistically dominant influence on regional hydrological vulnerability. Using a seasonal ARX/HAC model and CHIRPS data, we establish a new hierarchy of climatic drivers across six rainfall districts ...

Stratified analysis of the correlation between wedged hepatic venous pressure and portal venous pressure in patients with portal hypertension

Scientific Reports
To evaluate the differences in the agreement between wedged hepatic venous pressure (WHVP) and portal venous pressure (PVP) at different hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) levels to identify specific HVPG thresholds where WHVP can reliably estimate ...

Geochronological reconstruction of the Lateglacial deglaciation in the Arve Valley (Northern French Alps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The timing and spatial patterns of glaciers retreat in the Northern French Alps during the Lateglacial (19.0–11.7 ka) remain debated, reflecting discrepancies among available chronological data sets. The complex interactions between major glaciers, such as the Rhône and Arve glaciers to the north and the Isère glacier to the south, represent a

Determinants of Early Renal Function Recovery After TIPS in Patients With Portal Hypertension

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Renal dysfunction frequently occurs in patients with portal hypertension and is linked to unfavorable clinical outcomes. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has the potential to enhance renal perfusion through portal decompression; however, factors predicting early improvement in renal function remain insufficiently defined ...

Lower preoperative Kellgren–Lawrence grade is associated with improved long‐term survivorship following medial meniscus posterior root repair

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine whether there was an association between preoperative Kellgren–Lawrence (KL) grade and long‐term failure rates, reoperation free survival rates, and patient reported outcomes of patients undergoing medial meniscal posterior root repair (MMPRR).
