Is it time to rewrite IDA guidelines? 🩸

Current guidelines recommend 1st line OGD and colonoscopy. In our prospective multicentre study, small-bowel capsule endoscopy found potential bleeding lesions in 50% — higher than bi-directional endosocopy!

Check out our latest article on 🔥"Tuberculosis in Cirrhosis: A Diagnostic and Therapeutic Challenge" 🔥
🔷Tuberculosis👉🏼distinct diagnostic challenge in cirrhosis due to atypical clinical and radiological findings

🔷Cytology or tissue biopsy 👉🏼gold standard for definitive confirmation
🔷Treatment strategies must be individualized as per CTP or MELD scores with careful balancing between effective TB control and risk of drug-induced hepatotoxicity.

🫁 TB treatment started
📈 Liver enzymes ⬆️
🤔 DILI, TB-related liver disease, or something else?

🔹 Identify the pattern and severity of liver injury
🔹 Know when to hold anti-TB medications
🔹 Monitor closely for worsening liver dysfunction

🧠 Hepatic Encephalopathy Series (Part 1/4): Diagnosis

There is no single diagnostic test for overt hepatic encephalopathy (HE).

A practical 4-step approach:
1️⃣ Define the underlying liver disease
2️⃣ Characterise the neurological syndrome
3️⃣ Identify precipitants
4️⃣ Exclude alternative diagnoses

🔗 https://t.co/l8uEfsKrja

⚠️ Not every confused patient with cirrhosis has HE.
