Sarcopenia Predicts Mortality and Hepatic Encephalopathy After TIPS in Older Adults With Cirrhosis and Improves Prognostic Scores.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS

The role of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in older adults remains controversial because of limited risk-stratification tools. We aimed to assess whether sarcopenia and myosteatosis are independently associated with post-TIPS mortality and overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) in...

Overt hepatic encephalopathy after elective and preemptive TIPS: Risk factors and prognosis.

BACKGROUND & AIMS

Overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) develops in 30-50% of patients after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement, depending on patient characteristics and TIPS indication. Data on OHE after preemptive TIPS (pTIPS) are limited. We aimed to assess the prevalence...

A fluorescent aptasensor for deoxynivalenol detection based on Nb.BbvCI-assisted targeted-responsive three-way junctions integrated DNA walking machine.

Deoxynivalenol (DON) contamination in cereals is a widespread issue with global implications, necessitating the development of efficient detection methods. Here, a fluorescent aptasensor integrating target-responsive DNA three-way junction (TWJ) and DNA walking machine was developed to detect DON. The DON-specific...
