| Core Tip |
The concept of cardiac involvement in cirrhotic patients has been changing as patients listed for liver transplantation (LT) have become older and sicker. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) and myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) in predicting coronary artery disease (CAD) in cirrhotic patients listed for LT, using invasive coronary angiography as gold-standard. A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed, including 10 references for DSE and 10 for MPS. We concluded that DSE and MPS do not have adequate sensitivity for determination of whether CAD is present, despite having significant specificity. |
