Abstract: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Recent findings pointed out that even low-risk esophageal varices (EVs) are markers of severe prognosis. Accordingly, we analyzed spleen stiffness (SS) as a non-invasive method to predict EVs of any grade in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ajcp/aqab024
Abstract: OBJECTIVES In compensated cirrhosis, thick fibrous septa and small nodules on liver biopsy specimens correlate with the presence of clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH). In turn, CSPH is the strongest predictor of cirrhosis decompensation. The… read more here.

Abstract: Background and Aims: Patients with compensated cirrhosis with clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH: HVPG >10 mm Hg) have a high risk of decompensation. HVPG is, however, an invasive procedure not available in all centers. The… read more here.
