Colonic Exclusion for Portasystemic Encephalopathy

Progress in the treatment of chronic portasystemic encephalopathy.

The Inclusion-Exclusion Principle for IF-States

Applying two definitions of the union of IF-events, P. Grzegorzewski gave two generalizations of the inclusion-exclusion principle for IF-events.In this paper we prove an inclusion-exclusion principle for IF-states based on a method which can also be used to prove Grzegorzewski's inclusion-exclusion principle for probabilities on IF-events.Finally, we give some applications of this principle by...

Transplantation in Patients with Previous Portasystemic Shunt

Over a 9-yt'ar period, 58 patients who had pre"ious portasyslemic shunt procedures unden-ent orthotopic liver transplantation (OtTx) under a cyclosporine-steroid immunosuppresshe regimen. The types of shunt used were distal splenorenal (18 patients), mesocaval (17 patients). end-to-side portacaval (II patients). side-to-side portaca,'al (5 patients) and proximal splenorenal (7 patients). The me...

Hepatic osteodystrophy in rats results mainly from portasystemic shunting.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS In chronic liver disease, bone disease frequently develops. The contributions of the different features of liver disease such as parenchymal inflammation, portal hypertension, and portasystemic shunting on bone metabolism have not been systematically studied. The aim of this study was to identify the features of liver disease contributing to bone disease using rat models. ...
