All patients received antitubercular (AKT) therapy according national protocol. Patients diagnoses till...
Acute kidney injury increases mortality in cirrhotic patients by four fold. This study aimed to determine the usefulness of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) for differential diagnosis acute and predicting short-term patients.We enrolled 94 decompensated cirrhosis. uNGAL was measured upon hospital admission all patients. Patients with tract infection anuria were excluded. followed 30 days or until death.Ten (9%) had normal function, 9 (11.37%) stable chronic disease,...

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Variceal bleeding remains important cause of upper gastrointestinal bleed. Various risk scores are used in stratification for non-variceal Their utility variceal patients is not clear. This study aims to compare probability these predicting various outcomes same population. OBJECTIVE: To characteristics and validate AIMS65, Rockall, Glasgow Blatchford score(GBS), Progetto Nazionale Emorragia Digestiva (PNED) score Upper Gastrointestinal Bleed (UGIB) our METHODS: Three...
Evaluation of mediastinal lymphadenopathy (MLA) is a great diagnostic challenge considering the myriad causes. In recent years, role endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has been greatly extended in evaluation MLA due to its safety, reliability, and accuracy. The present study details EUS-guided-fine-needle aspiration/fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNA/FNB) unknown origin.Seventy-two patients (34 men) with etiology were studied. Mediastinum was evaluated linear echoendoscope FNA/FNB performed 22-G needle...
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), despite being uncommon, is on the rise in elderly population. However, no study from India has described natural history and treatment outcome of AIH elderly. The aim was to characteristics population compare them with younger population.Patients a diagnosis based revised International Hepatitis Group (IAIHG) criteria were recruited January 2011 June 2018. Patients defined as when ≥ 60 years young < age. Clinical, serological, histological follow-up until 12...
This was single-center, open-label, randomized trial. Patients who were undergoing ERCP and at high risk for the development of PEP selected study. into 3 treatment groups: diclofenac suppository group, RL a combination group.Eight 57 patients (14.03%) in 9 (15.78%) 6 (10.52%) group developed PEP. The incidence between three groups not statistically significant (P = 0.70). Serum amylase level >252 U/L had 91.3% sensitivity 92.6% specificity diagnosis PEP.Post-ERCP pancreatitis is usually...
Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection in chronic liver patients is associated with poor outcomes. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the predictors of severity and mortality group during second wave COVID-19 pandemic India. addition, compared cirrhotic from pre-COVID-19 period. Methodology This was a single-center observational study. We included data 50 cirrhosis retrospectively discharge/death files. A comparison 100 pre-COVID period also analyzed retrospectively....
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is the most common hepatotropic viral affecting patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Treatment of chronic HCV in stage 4 and 5 CKD includes a combination elbasvir/grazoprevir glecaprevir/pibrentasvir, which are not available many countries. OBJECTIVE: Hence, we have conducted this study to look for safety efficacy sofosbuvir therapy difficult treat population. METHODS: We single-center, prospective, open-label Stage hemodialysis with...
of the study: Decompensated hepatitis C virus (HCV) cirrhosis is a difficult to treat cohort, and there no gold standard predictor response direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy. We conducted this study look for factors responsible improvement in post-therapy status, i.e. attainment Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) class A from B or C, devise new model predict response.and methods: Prospective analysis data decompensated HCV cirrhotics was done association each parameter with patient outcomes at 36...
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory bowel condition. One of the theories for its etiopathogenesis gastrointestinal infections. Although COVID-19 primarily affects respiratory tract, involvement also common. We have reported case 28-year-old male who presented with bloody diarrhea, diagnosed acute severe ulcerative colitis, triggered by infection after known triggers were excluded.
