TL;DR: A MELD-based model is developed that accurately predicts mortality among patients with AVB, based on objective variables available at admission, which could be useful to evaluate the efficacy of new therapies and stratify patients in randomized trials.

TL;DR: In a randomized controlled trial, addition of simvastatin to standard therapy did not reduce rebleeding, but was associated with a survival benefit for patients with Child-Pugh class A or B cirrhosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of All-Oral Anti-Viral Therapy on HVPG and Systemic Hemodynamics in Patients With Hepatitis C Virus-Associated Cirrhosis.
Sabela Lens,Edilmar Alvarado-Tapias,Zoe Mariño,María-Carlota Londoño,Elba Llop,Javier Martínez,José Ignacio Fortea,Luis Ibañez,Xavier Ariza,Anna Baiges,Adolfo Gallego,Rafael Bañares,Angela Puente,Agustín Albillos,Jose Luis Calleja,Xavier Torras,Virginia Hernández-Gea,Jaume Bosch,Jaume Bosch,Càndid Villanueva,Xavier Forns,Juan Carlos García-Pagán +21 more
TL;DR: In a multicenter prospective study of patients with hepatitis C virus-associated cirrhosis, an SVR to all-oral therapy significantly reduced HVPG, compared with before treatment, Nevertheless, CSPH persists in most patients despite SVR, indicating persistent risk of decompensation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Esophageal balloon tamponade versus esophageal stent in controlling acute refractory variceal bleeding: A multicenter randomized, controlled trial
Angels Escorsell,Oana Pavel,Andrés Cárdenas,Rosa Maria Morillas,Elba Llop,Càndid Villanueva,Juan Carlos García-Pagán,Jaime Bosch +7 more
TL;DR: Esophageal stents have greater efficacy with less SAEs than balloon tamponade in the control of EVB in treatment failures, and the findings favor the use of esophageAL stents in patients with EVB uncontrolled with medical and endoscopic treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
