Explanation:

• For Question 7: Caput medusa, hematemesis, ascites are all well - known manifestations of portal hypertension. Coagulation abnormalities are also associated with liver diseases related to portal hypertension. All statements are correct except the one that needs further teaching is not among the correct ones.
• For Question 8: Nonpharmacological treatments for pain relief work by activating the body's own endorphins and enkephalins which are natural pain - relieving substances. Inflammatory mediators increase pain, endothelin - 1 is related to vasoconstriction, and prostaglandins are associated with inflammation and pain exacerbation in some cases.
• For Question 9: Hepatitis D virus is transmitted through blood transfusion and sexual contact. The oral - fecal route is not a mode of transmission for hepatitis D virus.

Answer:

Question 7: None of the above (assuming there is an error in the question setup as all statements seem correct in the context of portal hypertension knowledge).
Question 8: Nonpharmacological treatments activate the body's own endorphins and enkephalins.
Question 9: D. Both A and C
