TY - JOUR T1 - Fourier analysis of arterial pulse in patients with advanced cirrhosis indicates reduced wave reflections that may protect against manifest cardiac dysfunction JF - Gut JO - Gut SP - 1239 LP - 1240 DO - 10.1136/gutjnl-2011-301598 VL - 61 IS - 8 AU - Jens H Henriksen AU - Stefan Fuglsang AU - Flemming Bendtsen Y1 - 2012/08/01 UR - http://gut.bmj.com/content/61/8/1239.abstract N2 - Several recent articles in Gut have dealt with different aspects of the systemic circulation in liver disease.1–4 Patients with advanced cirrhosis have cardiovascular dysfunction and altered mechanics of large and small arteries.5 ,6 The configuration of the arterial pressure curve from these patients may disclose a flatter profile with fewer peaks.7 However, systematic investigations have not been performed. We applied the fast Fourier analysis to quantify the components of the arterial pressure curve … ER -
