Table 4.
Comparison of abnormal liver echogenicity and echotexture between JS patients with and without portal hypertension
Portal Hypertension | No portal Hypertension | P- value | |
---|---|---|---|
| |||
Echogenicity, n | 12* | 87 | 0.004 |
Normal + mildly increased | 5 | 72 | |
Moderate + severely increased | 7 | 15 | |
| |||
Echotexture, n | 12* | 87 | 0.72 |
Normal + mildly granular | 9 | 70 | |
Moderate + severely granular | 3 | 17 |
One patient in the portal hypertension cohort was excluded, because he was post-liver transplant.
