Serum NT-ProBNP potential marker of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Introduction: Based on many previous studies, liver cirrhosis is traditionally associated with cardiac dysfunction. The main clinical features of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy include attenuated systolic contractility in response to physiologic or ...

The Possible Role of Nitric Oxide and Oxidative Stress in the Enhanced Apoptosis of Cardiac Cells in Cirrhotic Rats [PDF]
- Cirrhosis has been related with hyperdynamic circulation, manifesting as increased cardiac output and decreased systemic vascular resistance. In the present study we examined the cirrhosis outcome on apoptosis of rat hearts.

Cardiac involvement in patients with cirrhosis: a focus on clinical features and diagnosis [PDF]
Cirrhotic heart has been traditionally considered protected from cardiovascular disease, even if a large amount of literature has recently shown that patients affected by chronic liver disease are exposed to cardiovascular events, as well.

Cardiomyopathy is a chronic disease of the myocardium characterized by an abnormal dilatation and thinning of the left ventricular (LV), associated with the contractile dysfunction of the muscle and loss of pump capacity, resulting in the occurrence of arrhythmias and myocardial infarction.

Berberine nanomicelles attenuate cirrhotic cardiomyopathy in rats: Possible involvement of the NO-cGMP signaling [PDF]
Objective(s): In cirrhotic cardiomyopathy, a rise in pro-inflammatory cytokines results in the up-regulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and the overproductions of nitric oxide (NO) and cyclic guanosine 3’, 5’ monophosphate (cGMP ...

The protective effects of curcumin and curmumin nanomicelle against cirrhotic cardiomyopathy in bile duct-ligated rats [PDF]
Objective(s): Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy refers to cardiac muscle dysfunction caused by liver cirrhosis. Seemingly, free radicals and inflammatory factors play a critical role in the pathophysiology of cardiomyopathy.

Myocardial infarct-sparing effect of ischemic preconditioning abrogated in cirrhotic rat through involvement of mitochondrial permeability transition pore [PDF]
Despite all studies undertaken mechanism of cirrhotic cardiomyopathy the role of cirrhosis on ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and ischemic preconditioning (IPC) phenomenon hasn't been explored yet.
