Autonomic neuropathy in patients with hepatic cirrhosis.
BACKGROUND Autonomic neuropathy has been reported in patients with alcoholic liver disease but information on its occurrence in patients with non-alcoholic liver disease is contradictory. AIM To assess autonomic functions in patients with alcoholic and non-alcoholic liver disease. STUDY DESIGN Autonomic function using five standard tests was examined in 20 cirrhotics (10 alcoholics and 10 n...
متن کاملAssessment of autonomic nervous system function in patients with non-alcoholic cirrhosis
Automatic dysfunction may contribute to the hemodynamic disturbances in cirrhosis. Tests of autonomic function were performed in 31 patients with non-alcoholic cirrhosis and 30 healthy subjects. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to child- Pugh,s classification ( A.B.C). The patients with moderate and severe cirrhosis( child B,C) had significant parasympathetic disturbance ( in the v...

متن کاملAutonomic neuropathy in an alcoholic population.
Autonomic nervous system integrity has been assessed in 30 alcoholic subjects and 30 age-sex matched controls using five simple tests of cardiovascular responses. There was evidence of parasympathetic neuropathy alone in five of the alcoholic subjects (16%) and of combined parasympathetic and sympathetic neuropathy in an additional six (20%). None of the controls showed any abnormality. Within ...
متن کاملVentilation-perfusion inequality in patients with non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis.
Ventilation-perfusion relationships were studied in patients with non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis. Spirometry was essentially normal but the transfer factor of the lung (DLCO) was reduced by an average 34% of predicted. Arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) ranged from normal down to 6.9 kPa. Varying degrees of ventilation-perfusion (VA/Q) abnormalities (multiple inert gas elimination technique) were ob...
