Assessment of a biofluid mechanics-based model for calculating portal pressure in canines
BMC Veterinary Research, 2020 Background Portal hypertension is a severe complication caused by various chronic liver diseases. The standard methods for detecting portal hypertension (hepatic venous pressure gradient and free portal pressure) are available in only a few hospitals due

Portal Hypertension in Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in the Era of Non-invasive Assessment
European Medical Journal, 2021 Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the emerging global health problems due to an increase of burden worldwide. It has been known that NAFLD is strongly associated with metabolic syndrome.

Portal venous pressure and the serum-ascites albumin concentration gradient
Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine, 1995 Other investigators have found the serum-ascites albumin concentration gradient to be 1.1 g/dL or greater in the presence of portal hypertension and less than that in its absence.To determine if any correlation exists between the serum-ascites albumin concentration gradient (which reflects the net serum oncotic pressure) and the portal venous pressure ...

On 'spot' evolution under an adverse pressure gradient [PDF]
, 2001 The unsteady travelling 'spots' or spot-like disturbances are produced, in an otherwise planar boundary layer, by an initial impulse/blip, from wall forcing or from nearby external forcing. Theory and computations are described for the evolving spot-like
