Effect of dietary sodium intake on the pressor reactivity to angiotensin II in rats with experimental cirrhosis of the liver.

abstract：:After myocardial infarction, the hemodynamics under basal conditions might appear to be unaltered, which makes it difficult to identify cardiac dysfunction by the usual approaches. Thus, we tested the response to sudden afterload stress in infarcted rats with apparently normal ejection function. Control (CT) and infar...
