The measured PAS was 23.62 ± 5.87 (Hz/msn) in cirrhotic participants and
19.09 ± 4.16 (Hz/msn) in healthy cases (p < 0.001). We
found a positive statistical significance between PAS and sPAP (systolic
pulmonary arterial pressure) (r = 0.378; p = 0.001). PAS
was an independent predictor that was associated with cirrhosis disease
according to multivariate LR (logistic regression) analysis (OR: 1.209;
95% CI: 1.059–1.381; p = 0.005).
