Study of lung blood pressure in people with liver blood vessel problems
Part of Digestive system, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at people who have both liver blood vessel issues and high blood pressure in the lungs. It aims to learn more about this condition and how it affects people over time, which may help improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at lung tissue from surgery to learn how pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) develops in people with lung disease. The goal is to find better ways to diagnose and treat this condition.
This study is testing whether a new risk score can better predict outcomes for people who have both chronic lung disease and pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs). If you qualify, the researchers will follow your health over time to see how well the score works.
This observational study is looking at people diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension to better understand how it behaves over time. You may help researchers by allowing repeated check-ins for years and sharing symptom and test information.
This study collects information from people with rare types of pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) and from healthy volunteers. It helps researchers better understand these conditions, especially using a special lung-heart test to confirm the diagnosis.
This study is tracking people with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) over time to see how their condition and quality of life change. By joining, you help doctors better understand the disease and improve care for others like you.
This study aims to better predict the future risk for people with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs) by combining different types of health information collected over time. If you join, researchers will track your health data to build a tool that personalizes care and improves outcomes.
