  • Title: Difference of hepatic circulation between alcoholic and non-alcoholic hepatic cirrhosis.
    Author: Nakamura S, Takezawa Y, Sato T, Aikawa T, Kera K.
    Journal: Tohoku J Exp Med; 1977 Dec; 123(4):297-306. PubMed ID: 605439.
    Abstract:
    Comparisons were made of hepatic circulation between alcoholic and non-alcoholic cirrhosis. The wedged hepatic venous pressure and per cent intrahepatic shunt measured by the method of continuous infusion of D-galactose-1-14C were similarly markedly increased. On the other hand, the wedged hepatic venography showed the main portal trunk and extrahepatic collaterals, namely, the tendency of reverse or stagnant portal flow, more frequently in alcoholic cirrhosis than in non-alcoholic cirrhosis. The nodules shown by slow low-pressure hepatic sinusoidography were larger in non-alcoholic cirrhosis than in alcoholic cirrhosis.
