Endovascular treatment outcomes after portal hypertension–related GI bleeding in cirrhosis
This study tests how well endovascular procedures for portal hypertension–related GI bleeding work in adults with cirrhosis, and what factors predict outcomes.

Factors that affect reopening of blocked portal veins in people with cirrhosis and gastroesophageal varices
This project looks at past records and follow-up to see which factors are linked with reopening (recanalization) of blocked portal veins in people who have cirrhosis and endoscopy-confirmed gastroesophageal varices.

VIATORR TIPS 6–10 mm: Real-world use in cirrhosis with portal hypertension
A real-world registry is seeing how the GORE VIATORR TIPS Endoprosthesis with Controlled Expansion 6-10 mm works over 2 years in adults with cirrhosis and portal hypertension.
-
MRI versus ultrasound for early liver cancer detection, body composition, and decompensation risk in cirrhosis
This project will test whether abbreviated MRI or ultrasound is better at finding early liver cancer and measuring muscle and fat in adults with cirrhosis.
-
TIPS procedure with or without oral branched-chain amino acids (BCAA)
This test will try giving oral BCAA supplements for three months after TIPS in adults with cirrhosis and sarcopenia to see if it improves muscle and clinical outcomes.
-
Microplastics in the liver of people with cirrhosis and portal hypertension
This study tests whether microplastics and nanoparticles accumulate in the livers of adults with cirrhosis and portal hypertension who are undergoing surgery or transplant, to understand where they go and what form they take.

2D-shear wave spleen elastography to detect clinically significant portal hypertension and high-risk esophageal varices
This study tests whether a 2D-shear wave spleen ultrasound can rule in or rule out clinically significant portal hypertension and high‑risk esophageal varices in adults with advanced chronic liver disease.

Using TIPS before sleeve gastrectomy to improve outcomes for people with cirrhosis and severe obesity
This trial tests whether placing a TIPS (a portal decompression procedure) before sleeve gastrectomy helps adults with cirrhosis, clinically significant portal hypertension, and severe obesity lose weight, feel better, and have fewer complications.
-
Carvedilol effect on portal pressure measured by endoscopic ultrasound
We will test whether one month of carvedilol (titrated to 12.5 mg daily) lowers portal pressure to help prevent digestive bleeding in adults with cirrhosis.

Effects of Metformin on Portal Hypertension in Cirrhosis Patients
This study is testing if metformin can lower blood pressure in the liver for people with cirrhosis and portal hypertension who haven't had enough success with other treatments.

Assessing portal pressure response to beta-blockers using endoscopic ultrasound
This study is testing if using endoscopic ultrasound to measure portal pressure can help doctors see how well beta-blockers work for people with cirrhosis and high blood pressure in the liver.
