Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of spironolactone on liver fibrosis progression and portal pressure gradient in patients with advanced chronic liver disease. Eligible cirrhosis patients were 2:1 randomized to either combination (carvedilol and spironolactone) or single (carvedilol) therapy group. Changes in virtual portal pressure gradient (vPPG) of portal trunk (calculated based on reconstructed 3D model and measured blood flow velocity), liver stiffness measurement (Fibroscan) and serum markers of liver fibrogenesis were documented at baseline and six months later.
