Multicenter analysis on the correlation between the anatomical characteristics of hepatic veins and hepatic venous wedge pressure.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundWedged hepatic venous pressure (WHVP) is a crucial variable for accurately assessing the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) and is vital for the diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of patients with portal hypertension (PH).
aimTo investigate the anatomical characteristics of balloon-occluded hepatic venous angiography in patients with PH and analyze the relationship between the WHVP and portal venous pressure (PVP).
methodsThis retrospective study included 877 patients with PH who met the inclusion criteria from January 2020 to June 2024. Routine and innovative hepatic venous angiography was performed during transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt procedures to measure hepatic venous and PVPs. All patients' angiographic images were collected for analysis. The associations between WHVP and PVP in each group were analyzed
resultsThe 877 patients had a mean age of 52.6 ± 13.0 years, with 582 males and 295 females. Patients were categorized into four groups on the basis of their anatomical structure. All groups showed strong correlations between WHVP and PVP. The regression coefficient between the WHVP and PVP in the hepatic right vein-portal venous angiography group was 0.884 (
conclusionThe presence and anatomical classification of hepatic venous collaterals are key factors influencing the relationship between WHVP with and PVP. Based on the different anatomical classifications of hepatic veins, WHVP can be used to estimate PVP, improving the accuracy of PVP prediction.
