Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Hypoxia may contribute to impairment of liver function and thus interfere with results of liver tests. In patients with cirrhosis, cytochrome P-450 mediated metabolism of substrates is facilitated in the presence of supplemental oxygen. It has not been studied how this relates to liver function and haemoglobin content. AIM:We questioned how oxygen supplementation would influence the hepatic microsomal function as assessed by the 13C-methacetin breath test in patients with cirrhosis of different severity and different degrees of anaemia. METHODS:13C/12C ratios in exhaled breath assessed by non-dispersive infrared spectrometry were studied in 34 patients with cirrhosis (Child A/B/C 9/17/8) after administration of 75 mg 13C-methacetin p.o. with and without oxygen inhalation (4 L/min). RESULTS:In patients breathing room air the total amount of 13C exhaled weakly correlated both with the Child-Pugh score (r = - 0.41, P < 0.02) and haemoglobin concentrations (r = 0.46; p = 0.006). Oxygen supplementation increased the total amount of 13C exhaled by 68 +/- 90% (P < 0.001). This effect was similar in Child-Pugh classes A (43 +/- 55%), B (83 +/- 80%) and C (66 +/- 123%) and not related to the Child-Pugh score. CONCLUSIONS:Our results suggest that tests of microsomal liver function are independently influenced both by oxygen delivery and the Child-Pugh score.
