Core Tip |
The ‘window therapy hypothesis’ for non-selective beta-blockers treatment was consolidated based on weak evidences. Nevertheless, it was responsible to change clinical practice and even the Baveno consensus, about portal hypertension. In this opinion review we detail the studies assembled to compose the hypothesis, demonstrating that another factor could be behind results and outcomes observed, the diuretic treatment factor. We suggested so another hypothesis after cautiously analysis of evidences, the ‘diuretic window hypothesis’. |
