Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography for the Assessment of Congestive Liver Disease in Patients With Structural Heart Disease

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Shear wave elastography demonstrated moderate diagnostic accuracy for detecting congestive liver disease in patients with structural heart disease. Increased liver stiffness was associated with echocardiographic markers of venous congestion, supporting the concept that elastography may serve as a noninvasive marker of cardiohepatic interaction ...

Use of single‐use ultra‐slim endoscopes for evaluation of pediatric esophageal varices: A pilot feasibility study

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Esophageal varices (EV) need monitoring in patients with portal hypertension. In 2022, a single‐use ultra‐slim (3.5 mm) gastroscope was approved for use in children and adults. This study evaluated if an ultra‐slim gastroscope could evaluate, grade, and corroborate the presence of EV in sedated pediatric patients as compared to standard oral ...

Determinants of Early Renal Function Recovery After TIPS in Patients With Portal Hypertension

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Renal dysfunction frequently occurs in patients with portal hypertension and is linked to unfavorable clinical outcomes. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) has the potential to enhance renal perfusion through portal decompression; however, factors predicting early improvement in renal function remain insufficiently defined ...
