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

TIPS and HCC: friends or foes ? [PDF]
Portal hypertension and hepatocellular carcinoma [HCC] are major complications of liver cirrhosis and may coexist in the same patient. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt [TIPS] is an effective treatment for recurrent variceal bleeding

From HBV to MASLD Cirrhosis: Mechanistic Insights and Therapeutic Strategies
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 ...

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

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 ...
