Objective  The effects of endotoxin, cytokines, nitric oxide were reviewed in the development of hyperdynamic circulatory syndrome in portal hypertension.
Methods  Liceratures of overseas main studies in hyperdynamic circulatory syndrome of portal hypertension in recent 10 years were reviewed.
Results  The hyperdynamic circulatory syndrome was found in 30%-50% of patients with cirrhosis and in all animal models of portal hypertension. The research results of the effects of endotoxin, cytokines, nitric oxide in the development of hyperdynamic circulatory syndrome were different.
Conclusion  Hyperdynamic circulatory syndrome contribute to the maintenance and aggregation of portal hypertension. Endotoxin, cytokines, nitric oxide may play a role in the development of hyperdynamic circulatory syndrome. Nitric oxide is a more important factor. The effect of other factors is probably mediated by nitric oxide.
