An Automated Microfluidic System for Haemostasis Assessment in Cirrhosis With Thrombocytopenia

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background & Aims Conventional laboratory tests do not capture platelet–vessel wall interactions (primary haemostasis) occurring in vivo, limiting guidance before invasive procedures. This is relevant in patients with thrombocytopenia, hallmark of advanced cirrhosis. Microfluidic assays may overcome these limitations.

A 7‐mm Covered TIPS Reduces Hepatic Encephalopathy Without Increasing Rebleeding in Cirrhotic Patients With Small Liver: A Randomized Study

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background/Aims International guidelines recommend initiating transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement with an 8‐mm stent. However, there is an evident lack of randomized controlled trials evaluating TIPS diameters < 8 mm in cirrhotic patients with a relatively small liver. The aim of this study was to determine whether 7
