Clinical Trial: Non-invasive Predictors of Esophageal Varices and Their Correlation to Upper Endoscopic Findings

U.S., March 12 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07464522) titled 'Non-invasive Predictors of Esophageal Varices and Their Correlation to Upper Endoscopic Findings' on March 02.

Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study:

* To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of non-invasive markers in predicting the presence and grading of esophageal varices in children with portal hypertension.

* To correlate these non-invasive markers with the severity of portal hypertension and the grade of esophageal varices to identify patients at high risk of bleeding.

* To propose a defined protocol for screening esophageal varices in those children.

Study Start Date: March 20

Study Type: OBSERVATIONAL
