Hepatorenal syndrome, functional renal failure in the setting of cirrhosis in the absence of intrinsic renal disease, occurs in patients with cirrhosis as a result of intense vasoconstriction within the renal cortical vasculature. It is common and develops in approximately 40% of patients with cirrhosis and ascites within 5 years. The resultant reduction in blood supply to the kidneys causes avid sodium retention and oliguria. The vasoconstriction that occurs in the kidneys is in stark contrast to the state of systemic vasodilation that is characteristic of chronic liver failure. The pathophysiologic mechanism responsible for these effects is unknown, but is linked to the systemic vasodilation, hypovolemia, and hyperkinetic circulation seen in chronic liver failure. ...

Hyperactivity—Hyperactive, or in medical terminology hyperkinetic, is a label that has been applied to between 5 and 20% of all school-age children in the United States. Unfortunately, hyperactivity is a vague term and some ill-mannered children have been conveniently labeled as hyperactive. Hyperactive children are described as being significantly more restless, easily distracted, inattentive and emotionally labile relative to their peers. Attention is drawn to hyperactive children in situations which require sedentary and attentive behavior thus, these children usually come under medical and psychological evaluation because of behavioral problems and learning difficulties at school. Furthermore, the hyperactive child may be physically sound but have difficulty with motor skills and coordination.
