As the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) remains the current gold standard for diagnosing portal hypertension in cirrhosis, its clinical application is limited by invasiveness, high cost, and restricted availability. Given the urgent need for noninvasive techniques to dynamically monitor portal vein pressure (PVP), contrast‐enhanced ...

Endoscopic Treatment for Esophagogastric Variceal Bleeding in Patients With Acute‐on‐Chronic Liver Failure: An Observational Study

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
In patients with acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF), esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB) represents a critical complication associated with high short‐term mortality. This study evaluated the efficacy of endoscopic treatment in this specific population and identified prognostic factors associated with 6‐week rebleeding and mortality.

Same site recurrence following standardized high ligation and stripping of the great saphenous vein – 5‐year results of the LaVaCro trial

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background Same‐site recurrence at the sapheno‐femoral junction (SFJ) takes up a large amount of the daily practice of phlebologists. Follow‐up data for high‐ligation and stripping (HL/S) of the great saphenous vein (GSV) are quite heterogenous and incoherent.
