چکیده
Patients with active cirrhosis of the liver may show evidence of multiple system involvement (Read, Sherlock, and Harrison, 1963). The suggestion has also been made that in such patients autoimmune phenomena play an important part in the pathogenesis of the disease (Mackay, Taft, and Cowling, 1956). These findings prompted us to undertake an investigation into the frequency with which antinuclear factors (A.N.F.) and other autoantibodies occur in the sera of patients with various types of liver disease.
