Abstract
- was identified in 30% of subjects. In this group, SBMI and LBMI were strongly correlated with HVPG (r=0.56, p=0.006 and r=0.58, p=0.002 respectively), but not with AST to platelet index (APRI) or FIB-4 scores (r=0.14, p=0.49 and r=0.30, p= 0.15 respectively). In those with viral hepatitis, SBMI and LBMI were not correlated with HVPG values (r=0.16, p=0. 56 and r=0.04, p=0.89), while FIB-4 correlated with HVPG (r=0.71, p=0.002) and APRI trended towards significance (r=0.49, p=0.056).Conclusions: As expected in viral hepatitis, HVPG and non-invasive scoring systems correlated, however spleen and liver volumes did not correlate with HVPG. In NCPH spleen and liver volumes strongly correlated with HVPG, however non-invasive scoring systems did not correlate with HVPG. The finding that spleen and liver volumes may serve as a non-invasive surrogate for portal hypertension in NCPH should be further explored.
