Artificial Organs, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 997-1011, June 2025.The retrospective cohort study is the first to compare OPAL with Prometheus and hemodialysis for adult ACLF patients. Both extracorporeal liver support systems were comparably effective with regard to the reduction of bilirubin and creatinine levels surpassing the effects seen in hemodialysis. We recognized improvements in clinical scoring, such as the

The “dark” side of terlipressin: a case report of ischemic skin necrosis and review of literature
Egyptian Liver Journal, 2023 Background Terlipressin is a commonly used drug in cirrhotic patients with acute variceal bleed (AVB) due to its vasoconstrictor effects. Ischemic complications are uncommon adverse events associated with worse outcomes.

Hepatology Research, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 844-858, June 2025.Abstract Aim Hepatorenal syndrome‐induced acute kidney injury (AKI) comprises AKI and liver cirrhosis (LC) and is a risk factor for poor prognoses of patients with LC. Decreased a disintegrin‐like metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif 13 (ADAMTS13) activity and increased von Willebrand factor (vWF) antigen levels are associated with LC ...

Terlipressin Infusion in Catecholamine-resistant Shock [PDF]
Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2003 Catecholamine-resistant shock is not uncommon in intensive care. Bolus dose terlipressin (a vasopressin analogue) has been used successfully in this setting allowing cessation of other vasopressor agents. The relative vasopressin deficiency in combination with the restoration of the vascular tone (by blocking adenosine triphosphate potassium-sensitive

Early Dynamics of Portal Pressure Gradient After TIPS Insertion Predict Mortality
Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 61, Issue 7, Page 1175-1182, April 2025.The lack of increase in portal pressure gradients (PPG) within 24 h after TIPS implantation is associated with poorer outcomes. ABSTRACT Background Transjugular 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 ...
