Randomized comparative study of efficacy of furosemide versus spironolactone in nonazotemic cirrhosis with ascites: Relationship between the diuretic response and the activity of the renin-aldosterone system

TL;DR: At the dosages used in the study, spironolactone is more effective than furosemide in nonazotemic cirrhosis with ascites, and the activity of the renin-aldosterone system influences the diuretic response to furoSemide and spironOLactone in these patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Delayed introduction of reduced-dose tacrolimus, and renal function in liver transplantation: the 'ReSpECT' study.

TL;DR: In conclusion, daclizumab induction, MMF, corticosteroids and delayed reduced‐dose tacrolimus was associated with less nephrotoxicity than therapy with standard‐dosage tacolimus and cortiosteroids without compromising efficacy or tolerability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Randomized, comparative study of oral ofloxacin versus intravenous cefotaxime in spontaneous bacterial peritonitis

TL;DR: Nonazotemic cirrhotic patients with uncomplicated community-acquired spontaneous bacterial peritonitis and without hepatic encephalopathy have an excellent prognosis and may be treated with oral ofloxacin without requiring hospitalization, as well as intravenous cefotaxime in this infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sympathetic nervous activity, renin-angiotensin system and renal excretion of prostaglandin E2 in cirrhosis. Relationship to functional renal failure and sodium and water excretion.

TL;DR: To investigate if functional renal failure in cirrhosis could be related to disturbances of vasoactive systems, plasma renin activity, plasma catecholamines and urinary prostaglandin E2 were determined and the effect of lysine‐acetylsalicylate on renal function was studied.
