Filter by:The investigators want to analyze the effect of Vardenafil on Erectile Dysfunstion and portal hemodynamics in patients with liver cirrhosis.
Aim of this thesis is to predict the incidence of esophageal ulcer bleeding after endoscopic management of esophageal varices. This study will be in the department of Tropical Medicine and Infectious Diseases, Tanta University, in at least six months in the period from august 2014 to march 2015 or until the target number of patients reached whichever is longer.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Warfarin Anticoagulation are effective and safe in Prevention of Portal Vein Thrombosis in Liver Cirrhotic Patients with Hypersplenism after Laparoscopic Splenectomy.
Cirrhotic patients are predisposed to intestinal dysmotility, bacterial overgrowth, and increased intestinal permeability all leading to an increase in bacterial translocation and increased endotoxemia. Rifaximin is an antibiotic that is virtually non-absorbed after oral administration and exhibits broad spectrum antimicrobial activity against both aerobic and anaerobic gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms within the gastrointestinal tract. It has been suggested that oral prophylactic antibiotics or bowel decontamination might improve long-term outcomes in patients with cirrhosis. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of rifaximin on the complications of advanced cirrhosis.
AIM: To evaluate the role of Strain Elastography in the assessment of liver fibrosis in chronic hepatopathy
There are several factors that influence telomere length in patients with cirrhosis, such as metabolic derangements and infectious etiologies, The aim of the study is to compare telomere length and other parameters related to genetic instability in telomere/ telomerase system, in peripheral blood lymphocytes in cirrhosis from different etiologies.

The aim of this study was to explore the suitable dose of rifaximin to alleviate endotoxemia and prevent the complications of advanced cirrhosis.
Surgical resection is the most effective treatment of primary and secondary liver tumors. Technical innovations have mainly focused on minimizing bleeding during transection of the hepatic parenchyma because excessive hemorrhage and the need for blood transfusion are associated with increased postoperative morbidity and mortality. Recently,radiofrequency-assisted（RFA）hepatectomy has developed rapidly and gained widespread acceptance for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinomas（HCC），but its influence on the prognosis of HCC patients，especially for those with cirrhosis，is still controversial. Therefore, we design this prospective clinical trial to explore the effect of RFA hepatectomy versus the conventional hepatectomy on the outcomes of perioperative period and prognosis of HCC patients with cirrhosis.
AIM To evaluate the role of real time elastography (ARFI and Hitachi elastography) in noninvasive diagnosis of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis
The CTP score is one of the best proved severity score in predicting mortality in patients with cirrhosis. Portal hypertension and variceal bleed are significant causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with cirrhosis. The recently published CTPK score included variceal variceal bleed status to the CTP score which improved the accuracy of CTP score in predicting short term mortality. CTPK score needs prospective validation.
