BACKGROUND Liver cirrhosis is associated with functional abnormalities of the cardiovascular system with co-existing electrocardiographic (ECG) abnormalities. OBJECTIVES The aim was to analyze ECG changes in patients with cirrhosis, to evaluate whether alcoholic etiology of cirrhosis and ascites has an impact on ECG changes. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study involved 81 patients with previousl...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Data on the epidemiology of alcoholic cirrhosis, especially in Asian countries, are limited. We compared the temporal evolution of patterns of alcoholic and nonalcoholic cirrhosis over the last decade. METHODS We retrospectively examined the inpatient datasets of five referral centers during 2002 and 2011. The study included patients who were admitted due to specific complicat...
BACKGROUND Activin-A is a molecule of the TGF superfamily, implicated in liver fibrosis, regeneration and stem cell differentiation. However, data on activins in liver diseases are few. We therefore studied serum levels of activin-A in chronic liver diseases. To identify the origin of activin-A, levels in the hepatic vein were also estimated. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nineteen controls and 162 pa...
Revised 28 April 2006 Accepted for publication 28 April 2006 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1.0 INTRODUCTION Ascites is a major complication of cirrhosis, occurring in 50% of patients over 10 years of follow up. The development of ascites is an important landmark in the natural history of cirrhosis as it is associated with a 50% mortality over two years, and signifies the need to...
BACKGROUND Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is an inflammatory disease that in some patients leads to exocrine and endocrine dysfunction. In industrialized countries the most common aetiology is chronic alcohol abuse. Descriptions of associated genetic alterations in alcoholic CP are rare. However, a common PNPLA3 variant (p.I148M) is associated with the development of alcoholic liver cirrhosis (ALC)....
BACKGROUND Population based mortality rates from liver cirrhosis, and alcohol consumption, have increased sharply in Britain in the past 35 years. Little is known about the long term trends over time in mortality rates after hospital admission for liver cirrhosis. AIMS To analyse time trends in mortality in the year after admission for liver cirrhosis from 1968 to 1999. SUBJECTS A total of ...
BACKGROUND Alcohol abuse has deleterious effects on human health by disrupting the functions of many organs and systems. Gut microbiota has been implicated in the pathogenesis of alcohol-related liver diseases, with its composition manifesting expressed dysbiosis in patients suffering from alcoholic dependence. Due to its inherent plasticity, gut microbiota is an important target for prevention...
This article describes the various forms of alcoholic liver disease (ALD), with particular emphasis on cirrhosis, the form of liver disease that often is most associated with alcohol abuse and about which the most information is available. Epidemiological research has evaluated the prevalence of ALD and the factors that often contribute to the disease. Although the most potent factor in ALD is ...
Introduction Cirrhosis is the 12th leading cause of death in the United States, accounting for almost 30 thousand deaths per year (Starr 2011). !e leading causes of cirrhosis include chronic alcohol abuse and viral hepatitis; however cirrhosis is the common end pathway of several types of liver injury, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), autoimmune hepatic or biliary disease, a...
