Potential Role of Increased Sympathetic Activity in Impaired Sodium and Water Excretion in Cirrhosis

Bichet, Daniel G., Putten, Vicki J. Van, Schrier, Robert W.·1982·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

In a study of 26 patients with cirrhosis, plasma norepinephrine concentrations were significantly higher in 19 patients who abnormally excreted an acute water load than in seven who excreted the load normally (8324 +/- 116 vs. 306 +/- 33 pg per milliliter; P less than 0.001). There was also a significant positive correlation between plasma levels of norepinephrine and arginine vasopressin after the water load, as well as a negative correlation between plasma norepinephrine and the percentage of the load excreted. A positive correlation between plasma norepinephrine and plasma renin activity, as well as between norepinephrine and aldosterone, was observed. In addition, there was a negative correlation between plasma norepinephrine and urinary sodium excretion. These findings indicate that increased sympathetic activity, as assessed by plasma levels of norepinephrine, correlates closely with sodium and water retention in cirrhotic patients and thus may be of pathogenetic importance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
