Introduction and objectives Liver stiffness measurement (LSM) by transient elastography has been validated to predict high-risk varices (HRV). We aimed evaluate the accuracy of shear-wave (SWE) platelet count (Baveno VI criteria) rule out HRV in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (c-ACLD). Methods This retrospective study analyzed data c-ACLD (transient ≥ 10 kPa) submitted two-dimensional SWE (2D-SWE) (GE-LOGIQ-S8) and/or point (p-SWE) (ElastPQ) who had a...

Background: Obesity is a worldwide epidemic that difficult to control with non-invasive treatments, which usually present poor results. In this context, the intragastric balloon (IGB) an important tool presents mean body weight loss (BWL) estimated at approximately 12%, although individual responses are highly variable. Objectives: This study assesses whether there factors can predict IGB therapy either before or early after placement of device. Materials and Methods: A total 50 obese...
Cytomegalovirus infection has a wide variability of clinical presentations depending on the patient's immunity, ranging from asymptomatic infections in immunocompetent individuals to with significant morbidity and mortality immunocompromised patients. We originally described case severe cytomegalovirus esophagitis, confirmed by blood polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test esophageal biopsy, young patient long-standing diagnosis gastroesophageal reflux disease. Clinical improvement occurred...
