Predictors of esophageal varices in patients with HBV-related cirrhosis: a retrospective study
BACKGROUND: All patients with liver cirrhosis are recommended to undergo an evaluation of esophageal varices (EV) to assess their risk of bleeding. Predicting the presence of EV through non-invasive means may reduce a large number of unnecessary endoscopies. This study was designed to develop a pred...
