Fetal Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion in the Surveillance of Intra‐Abdominal Umbilical Vein Varix

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objective To describe the application of tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) in monitoring cardiac function in cases of fetal intra‐abdominal umbilical vein varix (FIUVV). Methods The sample consisted of all cases of FIUVV diagnosed in a tertiary medical center between 2018 and 2023 that were assessed by sonographic fetal TAPSE.

Surgical portosystemic shunts versus transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt for variceal haemorrhage in people with cirrhosis.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2018
BACKGROUND Variceal haemorrhage that is refractory or recurs after pharmacologic and endoscopic therapy requires a portal decompression shunt (either surgical shunts or radiologic shunt, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS)).

Intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunt. [PDF]

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1990
Among numerous variations of communications between the portal and systemic venous circulations, intrahepatic shunts between portal and systemic veins have seldom been described [1 , 2]. Recently we encountered an intrahepatic portosystemic venous shunt directly connecting the right portal vein to the inferior portion of the vena cava.

Effect of varenicline on major adverse liver outcomes in alcohol‐associated liver disease: An exploratory analysis

Alcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, EarlyView.
This real‐world study assessed whether varenicline improves outcomes in patients with ALD and AUD. Using data from a large electronic health record network, 1278 matched patients were analyzed. Varenicline use was associated with reduced all‐cause mortality and hepatic encephalopathy compared with FDA‐approved AUD therapies (acamprosate or naltrexone),
