NCT ID NCT07314814
First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 21 times
Summary
This study aims to find genetic changes in people who have both a rare liver blood vessel problem (congenital portosystemic shunt) and a serious lung condition called portopulmonary hypertension. Researchers will analyze DNA from 120 patients and their close family members to identify genes that may increase risk. The goal is to use this information to predict and manage the lung condition earlier in at-risk patients.
