Sympathetic Nervous Regulation in Patients with Cirrhosis: Pathogenesis of Fluid Retention and Formation of Ascites by Jens H Henriksen, Helmer Ring-Larsen, Niels Juel Christensen

“…In patients with cirrhosis, the kidneys have been identified as an important source of noradrenaline ‘spillover’ into plasma, which indicates enhanced sympathetic nervous activity in these organs. Moreover, the level of plasma noradrenaline is inversely related to renal bloodflow and urinary excretion of sodium, and directly related to plasma renin, vasopressin and aldosterone. …”
