Background&aims: Non-invasive tests (NITs) for ruling-out clinical significant portal hypertension (CSPH) and high-risk varices (HRV) in patients with primary biliary cholangitis(PBC) and compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD) are lacking. We evaluated NITs in these patients and the influence of cholestasis on their performance.
Methods: Consecutive patients from the "Italian PBC registry" and two UK large-volume PBC referral centres with upper endoscopy within 6 months from biochemical evaluation and transient elastography were included.

- * The review, based on 23 articles, emphasizes the need for preventive strategies to reduce the use of harmful coercive interventions within the RAS population.
Carbon reserves are distributed throughout plant cells allowing past photosynthesis to fuel current metabolism. In trees, comparing the radiocarbon (ΔC) of reserves to the atmospheric bomb spike can trace reserve ages. We synthesized ΔC observations of stem reserves in nine tree species, fitting a new process model of reserve building.
