Variceal bleeding, whose triggering mechanisms are largely unknown, occurs with a circadian rhythmicity, with 2 peaks, one greater, in the evening, and one smaller, in the early morning. We assessed some clotting and hemodynamic parameters, possibly involved in variceal hemorrhage, over a 24-hour pe
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is becoming a common cause of liver cirrhosis requiring liver transplantation (LT). Cardiovascular complications related to metabolic syndrome and NASH recurrence in the transplanted liver may affect the outcome of LT in these patients. We compared the outcomes of
We read with interest the article by Bhagat et al. 1 regarding outcomes of liver transplantation (LT) in patient with cirrhosis due to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) versus patients with cirrhosis due to alcoholic liver disease. This retrospective study showed no statistical differences in post
