Beyond Varices: Complications of Cirrhotic Portal Hypertension in Pediatrics

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors summarize the current literature in adults who experience these complications of cirrhotic portal hypertension beyond variceal hemorrhage and present the available literature in children, with a focus on diagnosis, management, and liver transplant decision making in children with cirrhosis who develop ascites, SBP, HRS, HE, and cardiopulmonary complications.

Intestinal Immune Dysregulation Driven by Dysbiosis Promotes Barrier Disruption and Bacterial Translocation in Rats With Cirrhosis.

TL;DR: The intestinal mucosa of rats with Cirrhosis acquires a proinflammatory profile of immune dysregulation that parallels the severity of cirrhosis; this impaired intestinal immune response is driven by gut dysbiosis and leads to disrupted barrier function, promoting GBT.
