Sphingosine-1-phosphate promotes tumor development and liver fibrosis in mouse model of congestivehepatopathy. Chronic liver congestion reflecting right-sided heart failure (RHF), Budd-Chiari syndrome, or Fontan-associated liver disease (FALD) is involved in liver fibrosis and HCC. However, molecular mechanisms of fibrosis and HCC in chronic liver congestion remain poorly understood. Here, we
Assessment of Advanced Liver Fibrosis and the Risk for Hepatic Decompensation in Patients with CongestiveHepatopathy. Congestivehepatopathy (CH) arises from chronically elevated right-sided heart pressures transmitted to the liver by passive venous congestion. Over time, CH can lead to hepatic bridging fibrosis, decompensated cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Currently
Congestivehepatopathy after Fontan operation and related factors assessed by transient elastography. Congestivehepatopathy after a Fontan operation can have a major effect on long-term morbidity. We evaluated congestivehepatopathy in patients with Fontan circulation using transient elastography to determine which risk factors for hepatopathy are related to liver stiffness (LS). We evaluated findings, and the frequency of abnormal findings increased with increasing LS (P=.002). In the subgroup with the greatest LS value (≥30 kPa), 88.9% had abnormal ultrasound findings and 44.4% liver cirrhosis. Multivariate analysis revealed that age at Fontan procedure completion and total bilirubin were independent risk factors for hepatopathy. The present study revealed that congestivehepatopathy
Congestivehepatopathy and hypoxic hepatitis in heart failure: a cardiologist's point of view. In the setting of long-standing severe chronic heart failure, other organ systems are also involved. The liver is one of the organs that are very sensitive to haemodynamic changes. Differential diagnosis of the liver injury is extremely important in the cardiologist's clinical practice and calls for cardiologist's and hepatologist's collaboration because there are many other diseases that can affect the liver and mimic haemodynamic injury. In this article, liver injuries depending on cardiocirculatory dysfunction such as hypoxic hepatitis and congestivehepatopathy are analysed. The material in the article is presented in two aspects: the evaluation and treatment of heart failure in order to prevent
multicenter study including Fontan patients operated between 1990 and 2022. Anatomical, clinical, surgical and liver-related data were collected, defining FALD as a spectrum of time-related structural-functional liver modifications due to congestivehepatopathy (from mild liver fibrosis to liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma) diagnosed through multiparametric evaluations. 14 centers routinely
, cardiorenal syndromes, congestivehepatopathy and frailty, which offer distinct targets for existing and emerging therapies. Social drivers of HF and patient preferences for quality/length of survival were highlighted as essential modifiers for personalization of therapies. Ten key points summarized workshop findings, with target cohorts for study proposed as a crucial next step. This workshop summary
"Fontan Conduit Stent-Angioplasty and Progression of Fontan-Associated Liver Disease". Patients with Fontan circulation insidiously develop congestivehepatopathy related to chronically reduced cardiac output and central venous hypertension, also known as Fontan-associated liver disease (FALD). Fontan pathway obstruction is increasingly detected and may accelerate FALD. The impact of conduit
Real-World Use and Outcomes of Apixaban for Early Post-Surgical Fontan Thromboprophylaxis. Patients with Fontan physiology are at heightened risk of thrombosis related to passive venous return leading to increased stasis, as well as acquired thrombophilia from congestivehepatopathy. Variability exists for post-Fontan thromboprophylaxis, with no consensus on best practices. Direct oral

management strategies. Advanced imaging techniques are usually required to assist with its diagnosis. A 70-year-old woman with a history of pulmonary sarcoidosis presented with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction, congestivehepatopathy, and acute renal failure. Left heart catheterization showed evidence of non-obstructive coronary artery disease, and right heart catheterization revealed severely
a high morbidity and mortality, and the anesthetic management can be challenging. Acute heart failure, bleeding and arrhythmias are all concerns postoperatively. After IRB approval, we performed the retrospective analysis of 66 consecutive patients with CP who underwent pericardiectomy from July 2018 to May 2022. Most patients had significant preoperative comorbidities, including congestivehepatopathy
resulting in a significant increase in the body weight secondary to peripheral edema and congestivehepatopathy. To further test the role of circSlc8a1, we generated transgenic mice overexpressing circSlc8a1 and observed a protective effect of circSlc8a1 in a pressure-overload model. Mechanistically, we found that circSlc8a1 translocated into mitochondria to drive ATP synthesis. While establishing

congestivehepatopathy (CH). Laboratory anomalies of hepatic function may predict the outcome of patients with advanced HF and the evaluation of both cardiac and hepatic function is very important in the management of these patients. In clinically apparent ischemic hepatitis more than 90% of patients have some right-sided HF. There are systemic disorders characterized by the accumulation of metals
Elevated non-invasive liver fibrosis markers and risk of liver carcinoma in adult patients after repair of tetralogy of Fallot. Congestivehepatopathy and hepatocellular carcinoma is a serious complication after Fontan procedure. Liver fibrosis due to hepatic congestion could occur also in adult patients after repair of tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF). However, the incidence and severity remain
