متن کاملCardiovascular dysfunction in patients with liver cirrhosis
Hyperdynamic syndrome is a well-known clinical condition found in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension, characterized by increased heart rate and cardiac output, and reduced systemic vascular resistance and arterial blood pressure. The leading cause of hyperdynamic circulation in cirrhotic patients is peripheral and splanchnic vasodilatation, due to an increased production/activity o...
متن کاملEvent-related cerebral potentials for the diagnosis of subclinical hepatic encephalopathy in patients with liver cirrhosis.
PURPOSE Subclinical hepatic encephalopathy (SHE) seems to be a common problem in liver cirrhosis, however, studies assessing the pathogenesis of this disease remain unclear. Currently no gold standard exists for the diagnosis of this complex neuropsychiatric syndrome. The present study was undertaken firstly to examine the diagnostic usefulness of auditory event-related cerebral potentials (ERP...
متن کاملSubclinical Myocardial Dysfunction in Metabolic Syndrome Patients without Hypertension
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate myocardial function in patients with non-hypertensive metabolic syndrome. METHODS We selected metabolic syndrome patients (n = 42) without evidence of hypertension and compared them to age-matched control individuals (n = 20). All patients were evaluated by two-dimensional and tissue Doppler echocardiography including tissue Doppler derived str...
متن کاملSubclinical myocardial dysfunction in Rett syndrome.
AIMS Rett syndrome (RTT) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder frequently linked to methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2) gene mutations. RTT is associated with a 300-fold increased risk of sudden cardiac death. Rhythm abnormalities and cardiac dysautonomia do not to fully account for cardiac mortality. Conversely, heart function in RTT has not been explored to date. Recent data indicate a previ...
