  • Contractile response of femoral arteries in pigs with acute liver failure 

    Ytrebø, Lars M.; Ekse, Sveinung; Sen, Sambit; Rose, Christopher; Nedredal, Geir I.; Fuskevåg, Ole-Martin; Jalan, Rajiv; Revhaug, Arthur (2004)
    BACKGROUND: Acute liver failure (ALF) is characterized haemodynamically by a progressive hyperdynamic circulation. The pathophysiological mechanism is unknown, but impaired contractility of vascular smooth muscle may play an important role. The aim of ...
