On the History of Hepatic Vein Catheterization

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Hepatic vein catheterization (HVC) in man was first performed 80 years ago in the wake of right‐sided heart catheterization. Several new methods, recognitions and concepts followed, especially the indirect Fick‐method for determination of splanchnic blood flow. Five years passed before pressure measurements were performed and routine HVCs were

Terlipressin for Hepatorenal Syndrome: Novel Strategies and Future Perspectives

open access: yes, 2011
Type 1 hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a functional renal failure that often occurs in patients with cirrhosis and ascites. Type 1 HRS develops as the consequence of a severe reduction of effective circulating volume due to both extreme splanchnic arterial

Plasma Adsorption Perfusion (BR‐350) Versus Open Albumin Dialysis (OPAL) for Hyperbilirubinemia in Hepatic Failure in Cirrhotic Patients

open access: yesArtificial Organs, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 610-624, April 2026.
The therapy with PAP using BR‐350 resulted in a significant decrease of bilirubin concentrations. The median relative reduction of bilirubin was comparable between PAP and OPAL (47% vs. 40%, p = 0.29). The crossover comparison between the single session of PAP using BR‐350 and OPAL revealed similar relative reduction rates of bilirubin.

Antiparallel β‐Sheet as a Key Motif of Amyloid‐β Inhibitor Designed via Topological Peptide Reprogramming

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 28, July 7, 2025.
Targeting Amyloid‐β (Aβ) aggregation requires a peptide‐based approach that accounts for the structural heterogeneity of Aβ. Here, we employ topological reprogramming via disulfide bonds to stabilize antiparallel β‐sheets within the dimeric peptide.
