ADRENERGIC AGENTS IN CORRECTION OF PORTAL HYPERTENSION IN CIRRHOSIS OF THE LIVER
Abstract
The review identifies modern data on the prevention of bleeding from esophageal varices using various adrenergic agents. The evidence of the association of beta-2 adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) gene polymorphisms with a more significant decrease in the hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) in response to the treatment with non-selective beta-blockers is provided.References
