      Low serum potassium is not uncommon in liver cirrhosis. Hypokalaemia causes hyperpolarization of vascular smooth muscles channels, leading to an intense splanchnic vasodilatation in cirrhotic patients [28]. Hence, it can be anticipated that normal serum potassium may prevent or delay HRS in patients with liver cirrhosis.

      Considering the very high septic shock-related mortality of cirrhotic patients, these new tools could be very useful in this population. However, to date, no study has evaluated the accuracy of microcirculation alteration to predict death in patients with chronic liver diseases and specific hemodynamic alterations [16,17]. Sheikh et al. recently explored the sublingual microcirculation in 45 patients with cirrhosis [18].
