3 Fig. 2 Schematic representation of the proposed pathogenesis of hypervolemic hyponatremia in cirrhosis. Established therapies are given on the left side and potential new therapies on the right. ∗Vaptans are approved for the management of hypervolemic hyponatremia in cirrhosis in United States and Japan, but not in Europe.

4 Fig. 3 Schematic representation of the proposed pathogenesis of hepatorenal syndrome in cirrhosis. Established therapies are given on the left side and potential new therapies on the right. ∗The use of TIPS, transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt, has been reported in some studies but the information is very limited. ∗∗Vasoconstrictors include vasopressin analogues such as terlipressin and α-adrenergic agonists, such as norepinephrine or midodrine. ∗∗∗Albumin is given in combination with vasoconstrictors. Albumin alone is seldom effective. Journal of Hepatology  , DOI: ( /j.jhep ) Copyright © 2010 European Association for the Study of the Liver Terms and Conditions
