BACKGROUND Insulin resistance (IR) is associated with hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis, regardless of its etiology but the mechanism of hyperinsulinemia in cirrhosis is still unclear. The current study was designed to assess hyperinsulinemia and pancreatic β-cell function in euglycemic cirrhosis of varied etiology. METHODS A cross sectional case control study of 100 subjects. IR was assessed by...
BACKGROUND In hereditary pancreatitis mutations of exons 2 (N21I) and 3 (R117H) of the cationic trypsinogen gene have been described. AIMS To investigate whether the same mutations can also be found in patients with chronic alcoholic pancreatitis. METHODS Leucocyte DNA was prepared from 23 patients with chronic alcoholic pancreatitis, 21 with alcoholic liver cirrhosis, 34 individuals from s...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is among the most common malignancies worldwide, particularly in South and South East Asia. Unfortunately due to lack of appropriate facilities and awareness only limited information is available about its early diagnosis. Aim of the present study was to determine the efficacy of p53 by immunohistochemistry and Argyrophilicnucleolar organizer regions (AgNORs) in d...
Background. Alcoholic liver disease is a major cause of liver cirrhosis and the hepatorenal syndrome is a serious complication. Risk factors for hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) in alcoholic liver cirrhosis are not entirely explored. Aim. To assess the risk factors for hepatorenal syndrome in alcoholic liver cirrhosis. Patients and Methods. Consecutive patients with alcoholic liver disease were follo...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Blood lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is reduced in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, which is the major cause of cryptogenic cirrhosis (CC); few data on LAL activity in CC do exist. We investigated LAL activity in a cohort of patients with liver cirrhosis. METHODS This is a multicentre cohort study including 274 patients with liver cirrhosis of different aetiology from 19 centre...
BACKGROUND & AIMS The diagnosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and fibrosis staging are central to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease assessment. We evaluated multiparametric magnetic resonance in the assessment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and fibrosis using histology as standard in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. METHODS Seventy-one patients with suspected non-alcoholic fatty liver ...
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...
Chronic liver disease is known to cause several skin manifestations, including cutaneous vascular changes such as palmar erythema and spider angioma. Spider angioma has been reported to be associated with severe chronic liver disease [1]. A 54-year-old male patient presented herein had diagnosed alcoholic cirrhosis for ten years and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed grade III esophageal...
BACKGROUND & AIMS To evaluate the risk of depressive disorders among non-alcoholic patients by using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD). METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of a matched cohort of 52 725 participants (10 545 non-alcoholic cirrhotic patients and 42 180 control patients) who were selected from the NHIRD. Patients were observed for a maximum of ...
Chronic liver disease with cirrhosis is the 12th leading cause of death in the United States, and alcoholic liver disease accounts for approximately half of all cirrhosis deaths. Chronic alcohol consumption is associated with intestinal bacterial dysbiosis, yet we understand little about the contribution of intestinal fungi, or mycobiota, to alcoholic liver disease. Here we have demonstrated th...
