Table 2 Pulmonary gas exchange before and after TIPS placement in patients without HPS (mean±SD)

	Pre-TIPS	Post-TIPS
PaO₂ (mmHg)	95±16	95±27
PaCO₂ (mmHg)	29±6	31±7
AaPO₂ (mmHg)	18±12	18±20
FEV1 (% pred)	72±9	74±5
FVC (% pred)	76±6	80±2
FEV1/FVC	75±10	76±8
DLCO (mL/(min×mmHg))	22±4	20±5
DLCO (% pred)	67±13	63±9

PaO₂: partial pressure of arterial oxygen; PaCO₂: partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide; AaPO₂: alveolar to arterial oxygen partial pressure gradient; FEV1: forced expiratory volume at 1 s; FVC: forced vital capacity; FEV1/FVC: ratio of forced expiratory volume at 1 s to forced vital capacity; DL_CO: single-breath carbon monoxide diffusing capacity.
