In advanced cirrhosis there is a reduction in the brain concentration of many organic osmolytes, particularly myo-inositol (MI). Hyponatremia could theoretically aggravate these changes as a result of hypo-osmolality of the extracellular fluid. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of h

Hyponatremia is a frequent complication of advanced cirrhosis related to an impairment in the renal capacity to eliminate solute-free water that causes a retention of water that is disproportionate to the retention of sodium, thus causing a reduction in serum sodium concentration and hypo-osmolality

We read with interest the study by Sola `et al., 1 who found that 39 patients (67%) had a very alarming decrease in their serum sodium levels ! 5 mEq/L during terlipressin treatment for acute variceal bleeding (AVB). We, however, feel that some of their observations may require a closer look by the
