Cirrhosis is typically associated with a hyperdynamic circulation consisting of low blood pressure, low systemic vascular resistance (SVR), and high cardiac output. We have recently reported that nonspecific inhibition of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) with nitro-L-arginine methyl ester reverses the hyperdynamic circulation in rats with advanced liver cirrhosis induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl...
PURPOSE Excessive brain iron accumulation contributes to cognitive impairments in hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related cirrhotic patients. The underlying mechanism remains unclear. Hepcidin, a liver-produced, 25-aminoacid peptide, is the major regulator of systemic iron metabolism. Abnormal hepcidin level is a key factor in some body iron accumulation or deficiency disorders, especially in those ass...
Cannabinoids have been reported to participate in the pathogenesis of peripheral vasodilatation in cirrhosis. However, their roles in increased intrahepatic resistance (IHR) in cirrhotic livers are unknown. We aimed to investigate the effects of cannabinoids in the hepatic microcirculation of cirrhotic rats produced by bile duct ligation. In isolated liver perfusion, portal perfusion pressure (...
BACKGROUND: In cirrhotic livers, the balance of vasoactive substances is in favour of vasoconstrictors with relatively insufficient nitric oxide. Endothelial dysfunction has been documented in cirrhotic rat livers leading to a lower activity of endothelial nitric oxide synthase but this might not be sufficient to explain the low nitric oxide presence. We compared the amount of all nitric oxide ...
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate the postprandial gallbladder motility of cirrhotic patients using cholescintigraphy by technetium-99m-ethylhydroiminodiacetic acid ((99m)Tc-EHIDA). SUBJECTS AND METHODS Sixty two cirrhotic patients (Child-Pugh A: 28 patients; Child-Pugh B: 21 and Child-Pugh C: 13 patients) and 24 normal subjects were included in this study. All patients u...
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that cirrhotic patients produce increased amounts of thrombin but the underlying mechanism is still unknown. AIMS To analyse the relation between the rate of thrombin generation and monocyte expression of tissue factor (TF) in cirrhosis. PATIENTS Thirty three cirrhotic patients classified as having low (n = 7), moderate (n = 17), or severe (n = 9) live...
BACKGROUND Cirrhotic patients are prone to having bacterial infections due to impaired innate immunity. This nationwide population-based study aimed to identify the effect of bacterial infections on the mortality of the cirrhotic patients with esophageal variceal bleeding (EVB). MATERIAL AND METHODS The Taiwan National Health Insurance Database was used to collect data about the cirrhotic pat...
Hepatoprotective and curative activities of aqueous extract of decoction containing 10 Chinese medicinal herbs (HPE-XA-08) were evaluated in Sprague-Dawley albino rats with liver damage induced by thioacetamide (TAA). These activities were assessed by investigating the liver enzymes level and also histopathology investigation. Increases in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma-glutamyl transfera...
Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It is still unknown if TB, like other infectious diseases contributes a poor prognosis in cirrhotic patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of TB on the mortality of cirrhotic patients. National Health Insurance Database, derived from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Program, was us...
AIM To apply the Frontal Assessment Battery to cirrhotic patients with or without overt hepatic encephalopathy (OHE) and controls. METHODS The frontal assessment battery (FAB) was applied to 87 patients with liver cirrhosis (16 with and 71 without OHE) and 40 control subjects without cirrhosis treated at the alcohol and liver outpatient clinics and the gastroenterology ward of the Cassiano An...
