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 ...

Background The use of terlipressin, a long-acting synthetic analog of vasopressin, is associated with reduction in cardiac output and oxygen delivery. The present study was designed to determine whether dobutamine may reverse the terlipressin-induced depression in central venous oxygen saturation (SvO 2 ) in patients with catecholamine-dependent ...

Effects of short-term simultaneous infusion of dobutamine and terlipressin in patients with septic shock: the DOBUPRESS study [PDF]
Background Terlipressin bolus infusion may reduce cardiac output and global oxygen supply. The present study was designed to determine whether dobutamine may counterbalance the terlipressin-induced depression in mixed-venous oxygen saturation (Svo2) in ...

Early Dynamics of Portal Pressure Gradient After TIPS Insertion Predict Mortality
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 ...

Terlipressin Infusion in Catecholamine-resistant Shock [PDF]
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

ABSTRACT Background Portal hypertension (PH) is a critical complication in patients with hepatic diseases. Its accurate evaluation is essential for early diagnosis, risk stratification, and management. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has emerged as a promising diagnostic tool, offering high‐resolution imaging of the portal venous system, hepatic ...
