Question: Question: Is terlipressin more effective in decreasing variceal pressure than portal pressure in cirrhotic patients?
Answer: Our results demonstrate that terlipressin produces significant and prolonged decreases in variceal pressure and variceal wall tension and has intrinsic effects on portal pressure and systemic hemodynamics. Variceal pressure provides a better assessment of the effects of terlipressin administration on esophageal varices than hepatic venous pressure gradient.

Answer: yes


Question: Question: Is radiological review of specimen radiographs after breast localisation biopsy always necessary?
Answer: This study shows that a suitably trained or experienced surgeon can assess specimen radiographs effectively without the need for intraoperative radiological input although complete histological resection is not guaranteed despite specimen radiographs demonstrating clear margins.

Answer: no


Question: Question: Does endoscopic transphenoidal surgery for acromegaly improve quality of life?
Answer: Transsphenoidal surgery improves QOL in acromegaly. Attempts to achieve a cure, avoidance of surgically induced pan-hypotpituitarism and adjuvant therapy, will improve quality of life. Our study demonstrates the important role of the patient-physician relationship to QOL and the need to measure QOL in addition to the traditional measures of outcome.

Answer:
yes
