Table 2.
The portosystemic pressure gradient before and after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt was significantly different in the two groups
| PPG before TIPS (mmHg) | PPG after TIPS (mmHg) | Number | t | df | P-value | SD of difference | SEM of difference | R squared | |
| TIPS-125I group | 26.96 ± 5.73 | 13.1 ± 5.9 | 40 | 20.88 | 39 | < 0.0001 | 4.367 | 0.6905 | 0.9179 |
| TIPS only group | 26.12 ± 5 | 12.6 ± 5.4 | 45 | 22.94 | 44 | 0.0002 | 4.089 | 0.6096 | 0.9228 |
TIPS: Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt; PPG: Portosystemic pressure gradient.
