Alterations in Gut Microbiota and Metabolism in Cirrhotic Portal Hypertension: Implications for Disease Progression

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
In‐depth multiomics analyses revealed that the gut microbiota in patients with CPH is dysbiotic. Altered gut microbiota plays an important role in the progression of CPH and affects the host's arginine metabolism to promote arginine biosynthesis. The pro‐inflammatory effects of certain gut bacteria induce iNOS expression, which together act on the ...

Biomarkers of Extracellular Matrix Remodelling Are Linked to Severity and Outcome of Advanced Chronic Liver Disease

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling biomarkers reflect portal hypertension and disease severity in advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD). However, their predictive value for disease progression is largely restricted to compensated ACLD (cACLD). ABSTRACT Background Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling in advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD) is ...

Indocyanine Green Clearance Correlates With Biomarkers Reflecting Key Disease‐Driving Mechanisms in Advanced Chronic Liver Disease and Predicts Acute‐on‐Chronic Liver Failure and Death

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Indocyanine green clearance by pulse dye densitometry correlates with portal hypertension, systemic inflammation and circulatory dysfunction in advanced chronic liver disease. While diagnostic accuracy for CSPH was limited, ICG‐R15 independently predicted decompensation and ACLF/liver‐related mortality, highlighting its prognostic value across disease ...

Diabetes Mellitus is a Risk Factor for Hepatic Encephalopathy Following Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Diabetes mellitus independently increases the risk of hepatic encephalopathy following TIPS placement in patients with cirrhosis. These findings emphasize the need for careful risk assessment in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension complications undergoing TIPS.

Hepatitis B Virus RNA Predicts Hepatocellular Carcinoma Despite Viral Suppression

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Serum HBV RNA levels at viral suppression predict HCC development in nucleos(t)ide analogue‐treated patients with chronic hepatitis B, outperforming Hepatitis B core‐related antigen alone. ABSTRACT Background Despite achieving undetectable hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA levels with nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) therapy, patients with chronic hepatitis B ...

The Risk Factors for Bleeding of Fundal Varices in Patients with Liver Cirrhosis

open access: yesGut and Liver, 2013
Background/AimsThe relationship between portal hemodynamics and fundal varices has not been well documented. The purpose of this study was to understand the pathophysiology of fundal varices and to investigate bleeding risk factors related to the ...
