U.S., Nov. 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07909850) titled 'Development and Validation of a TIPS Prognostic Model' on Oct. 27.
Brief Summary: This multicenter, prospective observational study aims to learn whether a prediction model using routine clinical data, imaging findings (including spleen stiffness measurement), and circulating biomarkers can predict stent dysfunction and longer-term outcomes after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in adults with portal hypertension. The main question it aims to answer is:
Does this model predict TIPS stent dysfunction within 1 year after the procedure, and does it perform better than Doppler ultrasound for assessing stent function?...
