The disposition kinetics and heart rate reducing effect of deacetylmetipranolol (DMP), the active form of the beta-adrenoreceptor blocking agent metipranolol (MP), administered as a single 40 mg oral dose have been compared in 6 patients with cirrhosis and 6 healthy volunteers. The mean maximal DMP

The kinetics of the iminodiacetic acids, dimethyl and diethyl IDA were studied in patients without and with liver disease. Diethyl IDA seems to be superior to dimethyl IDA in its diagnostic usefulness. It shows lower urinary excretion and a faster liver uptake, leading to more pronounced differences
## Purpose: We assessed the resistance index (ri) in the superior mesenteric artery under fasting and postprandial conditions in healthy subjects and in patients with cirrhosis to determine whether the amount of change in the ri reflects the presence or severity of liver dysfunction. ## Methods:
