The PREDICT study uncovers three clinical courses of acutely decompensated cirrhosis that have distinct pathophysiology.

Jonel Trebicka, +126 more
TL;DR: Acute decompensation without ACLF is a heterogeneous condition with three different clinical courses and two major pathophysiological mechanisms: systemic inflammation and portal hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association Between Portosystemic Shunts and Increased Complications and Mortality in Patients With Cirrhosis

Macarena Simón-Talero, +65 more
- 01 May 2018 - 
TL;DR: The main outcomes were the incidence of complications of cirrhosis and mortality according to the presence of SPSS, and quality of life and transplantation-free survival were lower in patients with S PSS vs without.
Journal ArticleDOI

PREDICT identifies precipitating events associated with the clinical course of acutely decompensated cirrhosis

Jonel Trebicka, +130 more
TL;DR: This study identified precipitants that are significantly associated with a distinct clinical course and prognosis of patients with AD and specific preventive and therapeutic strategies targeting these events may improve outcome in decompensated cirrhosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fat-free muscle mass in magnetic resonance imaging predicts acute-on-chronic liver failure and survival in decompensated cirrhosis.

TL;DR: While TIPS might improve sarc Openia and thereby survival, persistence of sarcopenia after TIPS is associated with a reduced response to TIPS and a higher risk of acute‐on‐chronic liver failure development and mortality.
