HVPG-MASLD-Alcohol

Description

Background and aims: Hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is a strong surrogate of severity and outcome but its relative prognostic value in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is yet to be clarified. We compared HVPG in MASLD with ALD and other etiologies according to cirrhosis complications. Patients and methods: In our cirrhosis registry RH7, we identified patients with data on HVPG and scrutinized them against the etiology of advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD) (MASLD, ALD, other) and specific complications of ACLD such as variceal bleeding or ascites.
