A Comparative Study of Ultrasonography and CT Venography in the Diagnosis of Budd‐Chiari Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Budd‐Chiari syndrome (BCS) is characterized by hepatic venous outflow obstruction from the hepatic veins to the junction of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and right atrium. Ultrasound (US) and CT venography (CTV) are used as imaging techniques for the diagnosis of BCS, and We compared the diagnostic efficacy of the two modalities. The results showed that

From HBV to MASLD Cirrhosis: Mechanistic Insights and Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This review examines the epidemiological shift from hepatitis B virus (HBV) to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) as the leading cause of cirrhosis globally. It highlights the distinct pathogenic mechanisms between HBV and MASLD cirrhosis and discusses evolving diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies tailored to the ...

The Dynamic Evolution of Lipid Profiles Following Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt in Patients With Liver Cirrhosis

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Cirrhosis is frequently accompanied by varying degrees of lipid profile abnormalities. This study confirms that these profiles are differentially affected by disease etiology and progressively worsen—with significant reductions in TC, HDL‐C, and LDL‐C—as liver disease severity increases. TIPS improves lipid profiles, particularly by increasing HDL‐C in

Severe Thrombocytopenia Is Associated With Bleeding in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Patients Receiving Antiangiogenic Therapy

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Thrombocytopenia is common in hepatocellular carcinoma and may increase bleeding risk during antiangiogenic therapy, yet the clinically relevant platelet threshold remains uncertain. We found that a baseline platelet count < 50 × 109/L was associated with bleeding; patients below this cutoff had a substantially higher bleeding rate than those with ...

Altered Pathogen Spectrum of Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis in Patients Treated With Proton Pump Inhibitors

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
This multicenter, observational study reveals distinct alterations in the microbial spectrum of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) associated with proton pump inhibitor use. These results are especially relevant for guiding empiric antibiotic therapy of SBP.
