متن کاملHemodynamic derangement and cardiac dysfunction in cirrhosis.
Liver cirrhosis is characterized by a long course that lasts between 15 and 20 years. The natural history of this disease depends mainly on the occurrence and progression of single complications which are today more fully understood and therefore more treatable. More specifically, those complications involving hemodynamic mechanisms have been extensively studied in recent years. Indeed, the mec...
متن کاملNitric oxide and renal and cardiac dysfunction in cirrhosis.
Nitric oxide (NO) has diverse physiological and pathophysiological effects. The roles of NO in the renal and cardiac dysfunction found in cirrhosis are reviewed. In the kidneys of experimental animals with cirrhosis, several lines of evidence speak in favour of an enhanced production of NO, through the activation of both endothelial constitutive and inducible isoforms of NO synthase. In contras...

متن کاملImmune Dysfunction in Cirrhosis
Cirrhosis due to any etiology disrupts the homeostatic role of liver in the body. Cirrhosis-associated immune dysfunction leads to alterations in both innate and acquired immunity, due to defects in the local immunity of liver as well as in systemic immunity. Cirrhosis-associated immune dysfunction is a dynamic phenomenon, comprised of both increased systemic inflammation and immunodeficiency, ...
