The heart: pathophysiology and clinical implications of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy.
Cirrhosis is associated with hyperdynamic circulation, which consists of peripheral vasodilatation and increased cardiac output. Peripheral vasodilatation is central to hyperdynamic circulation and portal hypertension in cirrhosis. However, those mechanisms underlying hyperdynamic circulation remain elusive, and are not fully understood. Most of the earlier research and attention have been focu...
متن کاملThe protective effects of curcumin and curmumin nanomicelle against cirrhotic cardiomyopathy in bile duct-ligated rats
Objective(s): Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy refers to cardiac muscle dysfunction caused by liver cirrhosis. Seemingly, free radicals and inflammatory factors play a critical role in the pathophysiology of cardiomyopathy. Curcumin has the anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer properties . However, the therapeutic indications of this compound are limited due to its low absorption, rapid metab...
متن کاملCirrhotic cardiomyopathy.
Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy is a clinical syndrome in patients with liver cirrhosis characterized by an abnormal and blunted response to physiologic, pathologic, or pharmacologic stress but normal to increased cardiac output and contractility at rest. As many as 50% of cirrhotic patients undergoing liver transplantation show signs of cardiac dysfunction, and 7% to 21% of deaths after orthotopic li...
متن کاملCirrhotic cardiomyopathy
Cardiomyopathy is a chronic disease of the myocardium characterized by an abnormal dilatation and thinning of the left ventricular (LV), associated with the contractile dysfunction of the muscle and loss of pump capacity, resulting in the occurrence of arrhythmias and myocardial infarction. It has many causes and can occur in the liver pathology inclusively.
متن کاملCirrhotic cardiomyopathy.
During the course of cirrhosis, there is a progressive deterioration of cardiac function manifested by the disappearance of the hyperdynamic circulation due to a failure in heart function with decreased cardiac output. This is due to a deterioration in inotropic and chronotropic function which takes place in parallel with a diastolic dysfunction and cardiac hypertrophy in the absence of other k...
