U osób z marskością wątroby występują zaburzenia snu, co zwykle wiąże się ze zmianą rytmu wydzielania melatoniny i jej metabolizmu. Zespół opóźnionej fazy snu nie zawsze koreluje ze stopniem uszkodzenia wątroby, co wskazuje na udział innych czynników w jego patogenezie. Celem badania było określenie zależności między nocnym wydzielaniem serotoniny i melatoniny a stopniem zaburzeń snu. Do badań włączono 60 osób z marskością wątroby (grupa badana) i 30 osób zdrowych (grupa kontrolna). W porównaniu do grupy kontrolnej, u chorych z pierwszym stopniem encefalopatii wątrobowej (wg skali West Haven) o godzinie 2:00 stwierdzono niższe stężenie melatoniny w surowicy (odpowiednio 57,5±10,2 pg/mL i 41,2±9,4 pg/mL, p<0,05), zaś u osób z drugim stopniem encefalopatii - niższe stężenie serotoniny (odpowiednio 171,2±45,0 i 108,4±29,3

Sleep disorders occur in people who suffer from liver cirrhosis, this usually involves a change in the rhythm of melatonin secretion and its metabolism. Delayed sleep phase syndrome does not always correlate with the degree of liver damage, indicating the involvement of other factors in its pathogenesis. The aim of the study was to estimate the correlation between the night secretion of the serotonin and melatonin and the degree of sleep disorders. There were 60 patients with liver cirrhosis and 30 healthy subjects (control group) included in the study. Compared to the control group, in the first stage of hepatic encephalopathy (according to West Haven Scale) at 2 o’clock a.m. a low serum melatonin level was observed (57.5±10.2 pg/mL and 41.2±9.4 pg/mL, p<0.05) and even lower concentration of serotonin (171.2±45.0 and 108.4±29.3 μg/mL, p<0.01). These results negatively correlated with the degree of sleep disorders. The obtained results indicate that in patients with liver cirrhosis the changes in the homeostasis of both serotonin and melatonin occur, which can cause sleep disorders.
