Abstract
BACKGROUND: Mechanical jaundice is a pathological syndrome consisting in a violation of the outflow of hepatic bile through the bile ducts into the duodenum due to mechanical obstacles. The most common causes of mechanical jaundice are gallstone disease, malignant tumors, as well as cicatricial stricture of the bile duct or the large duodenal papilla of the duodenum. All this leads to the development of renal-hepatic insufficiency. Thrombohemorrhagic changes develop in the vascular bed, leading to the development of disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome. Prevention and treatment of cholemic bleeding in case of mechanical jaundice remains one of the complex problems of hepatobiliary surgery. This article is an overview of the causes and pathophysiological changes affecting hemostasis in mechanical jaundice, as well as the main points of treatment of hemostasis disorders in patients with mechanical jaundice.
AIM: This study aims to study the literature on homeostasis in patients with mechanical jaundice.
SEARCH STRATEGY: To conduct a systematic search for scientific information and to achieve this goal, an analysis of scientific publications in evidence-based medicine databases (PubMed), using specialized search engines (Google Scholar) and in electronic scientific libraries (CyberLeninka, e-library) was carried out from 2005 to 2020.
INCLUSION CRITERIA: Research of high methodological quality: Meta-analysis, systematic review and cohort studies, as well as publications with clearly formulated and statistically proven conclusions in English, Russian, and Kazakh.
EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Summaries of reports, reports in the form of abstracts, and advertising articles.
RESULTS: The mechanisms that affect hemostasis in obstructive jaundice can be considered from four perspectives: The first relates to Vitamin K deficiency in obstructive jaundice, the second describes the effect of ongoing fibrosis and cirrhosis of the liver on hemostasis, the third analyzes the relationship between infectious-septic mechanisms and the hemostasis system, their clinical significance in patients with obstructive jaundice, and the latter involves the analysis of specific factors that manifest obstructive jaundice and may themselves affect the blood coagulation system.
CONCLUSION: Understanding the pathophysiology of hemostatic changes in patients with cholestasis and, more generally, liver disease is a clear way to accurate diagnosis and treatment. The combination of good knowledge with careful examination of each patient can lead to the most promising result.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Pediatric acute liver failure (PALF) is a rare, rapidly progressive clinical syndrome with significant morbidity and mortality. The phenotype of PALF manifests as abrupt onset liver dysfunction, which can be brought via disparate etiology. Management is reliant upon intensive clinical care and support, often provided by the collaborative efforts of hepatologists, critical care specialists, and liver transplant surgeons. The construction of an age-based diagnostic approach, the identification of a potential underlying cause, and the prompt implementation of appropriate therapy can be lifesaving; however, the dynamic and rapidly progressive nature of PALF also demands that diagnostic inquiries be paired with monitoring strategies for the recognition and treatment of common complications of PALF. Although liver transplantation can provide a potential life-saving therapeutic option, the ability to confidently determine the certainness that liver transplant is needed for an individual child has been hampered by a lack of adequately tested clinical decision support tools and accurate predictive models. Given the accelerated progress in understanding PALF, we will provide clinical guidance to pediatric gastroenterologists and other pediatric providers caring for children with PALF by presenting the most recent advances in diagnosis, management, pathophysiology, and associated outcomes.

Abstract
Patients with varying degrees of hepatic dysfunction often present with presumed bleeding diathesis based on interpretation of routine measures of coagulation (prothrombin time [PT], international normalized ratio [INR], and activated partial thromboplastin time). However, standard markers of coagulation do not reflect the actual bleeding risk in this population and may lead to inappropriate administration of hemostatic agents and blood products. The concept of "rebalanced hemostasis" explains both the risk of bleeding and clotting seen in patients with liver dysfunction. The role of pharmacologic agents and blood products for prevention of bleeding during high-risk procedures and treatment of clinically significant bleeding remains unclear. Viscoelastic measurements of the clotting cascade provide information about platelets, fibrinogen/fibrin polymerization, coagulation factors, and fibrinolysis that might better represent hemostasis in vivo and may better inform management strategies. Due to the paucity of available data, firm recommendations for the use of blood products and pharmacologic agents in patients with hepatic coagulopathies are lacking, and thus, these products should not be routinely administered. Traditional laboratory tests such as PT/INR should not be the sole determinant of potential interventions. Rather, clinicians should assess factors such as the severity of bleed or bleeding risk of the procedure, the patient's risk of thromboembolism, and the strength of available evidence for specific agents and blood products to guide decision-making.

Abstract
Pediatric Acute Liver Failure (PALF) is a rapidly progressive clinical syndrome encountered in the pediatric ICU which may rapidly progress to multi-organ dysfunction, and on occasion to life threatening cerebral edema and hemorrhage. Pediatric Acute Liver Failure is defined as severe acute hepatic dysfunction accompanied by encephalopathy and liver-based coagulopathy defined as prolongation of International Normalized Ratio (INR) >1.5. However, coagulopathy in PALF is complex and warrants a deeper understanding of the hemostatic balance in acute liver failure. Although an INR value of >1.5 is accepted as the evidence of coagulopathy and has historically been viewed as a prognostic factor of PALF, it may not accurately reflect the bleeding risk in PALF since it only measures procoagulant factors. Paradoxically, despite the prolongation of INR, bleeding risk is lower than expected (around 5%). This is due to "rebalanced hemostasis" due to concurrent changes in procoagulant, anticoagulant and fibrinolytic systems. Since the liver is involved in both procoagulant (Factors II, V, IX, XI, and fibrinogen) and anticoagulant (Protein C, Protein S, and antithrombin) protein synthesis, PALF results in "rebalanced hemostasis" or even may shift toward a hypercoagulable state. In addition to rebalanced coagulation there is altered platelet production due to decreased thrombopoietin production by liver, increased von Willebrand factor from low grade endothelial cell activation, and hyperfibrinolysis and dysfibrinogenemia from altered synthetic liver dysfunction. All these alterations contribute to the multifactorial nature of coagulopathy in PALF. Over exuberant use of prophylactic blood products in patients with PALF may contribute to morbidities such as fluid overload, transfusion-associated lung injury, and increased thrombosis risk. It is essential to use caution when using INR values for plasma and factor administration. In this review we will summarize the complexity of coagulation in PALF, explore "rebalanced hemostasis," and discuss the limitations of current coagulation tests. We will also review strategies to accurately diagnose the coagulopathy of PALF and targeted therapies.

Abstract
Pediatric acute liver failure (PALF) is a dynamic, life-threatening condition of disparate etiology. Management of PALF is dependent on intensive collaborative clinical care and support. Proper recognition and treatment of common complications of liver failure are critical to optimizing outcomes. In parallel, investigations to identify underlying cause and the implementation of timely, appropriate treatment can be life-saving. Predicting patient outcome in the era of liver transplantation has been unfulfilling and better predictive models must be developed for proper stewardship of the limited resource of organ availability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Liver disease (LD) often results in coagulation abnormalities that may predispose to more severe epistaxis. The purpose of this analysis was to examine characteristics of patients hospitalized for epistaxis with LD and explore the impact of LD on patient outcomes. METHODS The 2002 to 2013 National Inpatient Sample was queried for cases with a primary diagnosis of epistaxis. Cases with additional codes meeting the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's definition of LD were identified and compared to the non-LD cohort. RESULTS Out of 39,879 cases meeting inclusion criteria, 3.6% had LD. LD was associated with younger age (55.7 years vs. 67.5 years; P < 0.001), longer hospital stay (3.9 days vs. 3.2 days; P < 0.001), and greater hospital charges ($26,141 vs. $18,200; P < 0.001) compared to the non-LD cohort. LD patients had higher rates of alcohol abuse, coagulopathy, chronic blood loss anemia, and renal failure. LD patients also had higher rates of sepsis, urinary/renal complications, respiratory failure, and infectious pneumonia. LD was associated with decreased rates of aggressive management (defined as ligation or embolization) (6.6%-9.0%; P < 0.002) and anterior or posterior nasal packing. In our multivariate logistic regression model correcting for age, gender, race, and significant comorbidities, LD was associated with 1.520 (1.336-1.729; P < 0.001) greater odds of transfusion and 2.264 (1.372-3.736; P = 0.001) greater odds of in-hospital mortality. CONCLUSION Among patients hospitalized for epistaxis, LD resulted in greater morbidity and mortality. Clinicians should be aware of the particular risk that LD bears on the hospitalized epistaxis patient. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 2C. Laryngoscope, 127:2691-2697, 2017.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the changes in tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) serum levels after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in children with congenital heart disease (CHD), followed by a meta-analysis to analyze the clinical value of TNF-α in CPB. METHODS Our cohort study enrolled 67 CHD children, assigned into off-pump group (n=32) and CPB group (n=35). The TNF-α serum levels in two groups were detected by ELISA before the operation (T1), at the end of the operation (0 hour, T2), and after 24 hours of the operation (T3). For meta-analysis, literature search was conducted to identify published case-control articles about the changes of TNF-α serum levels with CPB of CHD. RESULTS The TNF-α levels in CPB group were lower than that in the off-pump group at T3 (P=.006). TNF-α level at T3 was significantly lower than that at T1 and T2 (all P<.05). Meta-analysis results further confirmed that the TNF-α levels of CHD children were dramatically decreased at T3 as compared to that at T1 and T2 (both P<.001). CONCLUSION The TNF-α serum levels showed a transient and dramatic decline after 24 hours of CPB, and it may act as an important biological indicator for monitoring the efficacy of CPB in CHD children.
