Impact of overt and subclinical hepatogenous diabetes and metformin treatment on circulatory function, renal function and hemodynamics, inflammatory activity, and prognosis in patients with cirrhosis and ascites
Circulatory function and renal function and perfusion are aggravated by FBG-HD compared to OGTT-HD or no-HD, possibly because of greater inflammatory activity, while they improve significantly after metformin treatment. Early treatment of HD with metformin may improve prognosis.
