Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include patients aged 12-70 years, of any gender, with a clinical, pathological, or radiological diagnosis of Non-Cirrhotic Portal Hypertension.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with cirrhosis or active malignancy will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study aims to re-evaluate patients diagnosed with Non-Cirrhotic Portal Hypertension (NCPH) in India and determine the applicability of a new histological classification for Porto-sinusoidal Vascular Disease (PSVD). It will involve screening patients based on liver biopsy, endoscopy, and radiology reports to identify those fitting the PSVD diagnosis. The study will compare cohorts diagnosed with INCPH against those meeting the new PSVD criteria, while also assessing demographic, clinical, and etiological factors. The goal is to establish the relevance of PSVD in the Indian population and the utility of invasive diagnostic tests.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved diagnostic accuracy and treatment strategies for patients with portal hypertension and related conditions.
How similar studies have gone: While the approach of re-evaluating diagnostic criteria is not novel, the specific focus on the Indian population and the application of the VALDIG classification is relatively untested.
