Brief Summary
Terlipressin and somatostatin/octreotide are the first-line choices for the treatment of acute variceal bleeding in liver cirrhosis. Acute kidney injury can develop in patients presenting with acute variceal bleeding. On the other hand, evidence suggests that terlipressin can reverse hepatorenal syndrome. It has been hypothesized that terlipressin can protect the renal function in cirrhotic patients with acute variceal bleeding, except for control of bleeding.

Study Arms (2)
Terlipressin group
Cirrhotic patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding received terlipressin with or without somatostatin/octreotide.
Somatostatin/Octreotide group
Cirrhotic patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding received somatostatin and/or octreotide without terlipressin.
Interventions
Continuous or intermittent intravenous infusion of terlipressin was given.
Continuous or intermittent intravenous infusion of somatostatin was given.
Continuous or intermittent intravenous infusion of octreotide was given.
Eligibility Criteria

- Patients who received terlipressin or somatostatin/octreotide.
- Age or sex was not limited.
- Use of endoscopy was not limited.
- Comorbidity was not limited.

You may not qualify if:
- Renal parenchymal diseases.
- Absence of baseline serum creatinine.
- Absence of serum creatinine 3-5 days after terlipressin or somatostatin/octreotide.
- Duration of terlipressin or somatostatin/octreotide was less 3 days.
- Patients who underwent transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt.
- Patients who underwent surgical shunt, splenectomy with or without devascularization, or liver transplantation.
