註釋Abstract: It is unclear to what extent systemic arterial blood pressure influences portal pressure. This relationship is clinically important as drugs, which are conventionally used for therapy of portal hypertension, may also influence systemic arterial blood pressure. This study investigated the potential correlation between mean arterial (MAP) and portal venous pressure (PVP) in rats with healthy livers. In a rat model with healthy livers, we investigated the effect of manipulation of MAP on PVP. Interventions consisted of 0.9% NaCl (group 1), 0.1 mg/kg body weight (bw) Sildenafil (low dose), an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase-5 (group 2), and 1.0 mg/kg bw Sildenafil (high dose, group 3) in 600 μL saline injected intravenously. Norepinephrine was used to increase MAP in animals with circulatory failure while PVP was monitored. Injection of the fluids induced a transient drop in MAP and PVP, probably due to a reversible cardiac decompensation. The drop in MAP and drop in PVP are significantly correlated. The time lag between change in MAP and change in PVP by 24 s in all groups suggests a cause-and-effect relationship. Ten minutes after the injection of the fluid, cardiac function was normalized. Thereafter, MAP gradually decreased. In the NaCl group, PVP decreases by 0.485% for a 1% drop of MAP, by 0.550% in the low-dose sildenafil group, and by 0.651% in the high-dose sildenafil group (p
