"Indeed, hepatic encephalopathy is one of the most common postoperative TIPS-related complications. In a meta-analysis of nine studies by Xu et al., it was shown that use of drugs (lactulose, rifaximin, albumin, and l-ornithin-l-aspartate) after TIPS may reduce the hepatic encephalopathy incidence. Currently, opinions on medical prophylaxis of post-TIPS hepatic encephalopathy are contradictory. For example, North American Practice-Based Recommendations consider it inappropriate in patients without a history of hepatic encephalopathy prior to TIPS. Future prospective RCTs are needed to investigate the role for medical prophylaxis to prevent post-TIPS hepatic encephalopathy." [Collapse]

Pre-transplant reflux assessment may provide clinically relevant information in the prognostication and management of transplant recipients. The results are very interesting and will provide meaningful advice for treating patients in clinical lung transplantation. The authors had several publications on this topic before, promoting the authenticity and value of this study. The ethics meets the requirement.

"Recent epidemiological data support the assumption that the prevalence of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is increasing worldwide without significant advances in its treatment. Despite that, various methods have been tried in recent years. Over the last decade, different treatment methods have been explored to convert an inoperable case into a surgical one. In the study by Liu JJ, Zhou M, Yuan T, Huang ZY, Zhang ZY. Conversion treatment for advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: Opportunities and challenges.World J Gastroenterol 2025;. 31(15): 104901 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v31.i15.104901, the authors present in a systematic and deductive manner the clinical data available on the above topic. According to the data presented, conversion therapy for ICC can reduce tumor burden and enhance the likelihood of surgical resection. As emphasized by the authors, maintaining adequate liver remnant is crucial to prevent liver failure after hepatectomy, and this can be achieved in several ways. Shortly, ways of sub-staging the disease in a selected group of patients according to strict criteria should be investigated more intensively to make this desperately prognostic carcinoma treatable. However, sub-staging the advanced neoplasm presents significant challenges in terms of the type and dosage of anti-cancer drugs and the criteria for their application. The importance of the forthcoming prospective studies also has a strong human element when facing these patients in daily clinical practice, fully realizing the impossibility of offering adequate treatment, even symptomatic."

"Although the manuscript is well written, number of references is only 150. Need more than 200 references for the review article of this journal. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (TIPSs) are generally used for the management of complications of portal hypertension in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. However, hepatic encephalopathy (HE), which impairs neuropsychiatric function and motor control, remains the primary adverse effect of TIPS, limiting its utility. Prompt prevention and treatment of post-TIPS HE are critical, as they are strongly associated with readmission rates and poor quality of life. This review focuses on the main pathophysiological mechanisms underlying post-TIPS HE, explores advanced biomarkers and predictive tools, and discusses current management strategies and future directions to prevent or reverse HE following TIPS. These strategies include preoperative patient assessment, individualized shunt diameter optimization, spontaneous portosystemic shunt embolization during the TIPS procedure, postoperative preventive and therapeutic measures such as nutrition management, medical therapy, fecal microbiota transplantation, and stent reduction.

Additionally, the forward-looking perspective on future innovations and research directions adds meaningful insight into where the field is headed.
