It is hands down the best review of alcohol-associated hepatitis I have had the pleasure of perusing in the past few years.
3) These are the important pearls from this segment in csase you don't have 40 mins to listen to the podcast!

What is hepatorenal syndrome?
A #Livertwitter #tweetorial

Hepatology is awesome, exciting, but also humbling.
Nowhere is that clearer than HRS, a true unmet need for patients with ascites

Aims
1. What
2. Why
3. How to prevent/treat
4. ❤️ #cirrhosis physiology
What:
1. Ascites trashes QOL & is deadly enough to merit mention in the bible(Fig1)
2. Ascites physiology damages other organs; Austin Flint said it 1st (Fig2)
3. HRS is the knockout punch of portal hypertension. What begins as elevated portal mmHg and ascites ends as HRS(Fig3)
What:
1. HRS is not rare in pts w/ascites (Fig1)
2. HRS is deadly (Fig2)
3. For a definition of terms, check out the Ascites Club (that's a thing!)
