Gastroesophageal varices are a common complication of cirrhosis and are present in approximately 50% of patients with cirrhosis.[1] Acute gastroesophageal variceal hemorrhage is a severe complication of cirrhosis or portal hypertension associated with high mortality.[1‐3] Although mortality of gastroesophageal variceal hemorrhage has decreased in the past three decades, it remains the most comm...
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...
INTRODUCTION Primary biliary cirrhosis is an autoimmune disease that tends to progress to fibrosis and cirrhosis with hepatic failure. Primary biliary cirrhosis is often associated with other non- hepatic autoimmune diseases. An association with rheumatoid arthritis has been suggested to coexist in 1.8% to 5.6% of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis, but data supporting this association are...
Infections in patients with cirrhosis are common among those who develop variceal hemorrhage. Prophylactic antimicrobial treatment with third generation cephalosporins is recommended in patients with advanced cirrhosis and gastrointestinal hemorrhage. However no infectious source is identified in up to 50% of patients with cirrhosis and clinical sepsis. We report the first case of Paracoccus ye...
Liver involvement in patients with sickle cell anemia/trait includes a wide range of alterations, from mild liver function test abnormalities to cirrhosis and acute liver failure. Approximately 15-30% of patients with sickle cell anemia present cirrhosis at autopsy. The pathogenesis of cirrhosis is usually related to chronic hepatitis B or C infection or to iron overload resulting from the many...
Hepatitis B and C viruses are major public health problems. These viruses can chronically lead to liver disease such as fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma, which often increase mortality in these patients. According to previous studies, the liver is highly affected by changes in the microbiota of gastrointestinal tract and immune system damage caused by inflammation due to viral ...
The prevalences of 10 HLA-A and 16 HLA-B antigens were determined in 50 patients with alcoholic cirrhosis and 120 alcoholic patients without cirrhosis and compared with those in a control group of 550 healthy subjects from the same geographical area. B40 was absent in the patients with cirrhosis but was found in 18 (15%) of the patients without cirrhosis (p = 0.0087). No other association was n...
background: the prognosis of patients with decompensated cirrhosis due to hepatitis b is very poor. it has been shown that lamivudine can improve liver function and delay the need for liver transplantation in hbeag-positive patients with decompensated cirrhosis. however, information regarding long-term use of lamivudine in hbeag-negative patients with cirrhosis is limited. the primary objective...
BACKGROUND Cirrhotic patients admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) have high mortality rates. The present study compared the characteristics and outcomes of critically ill patients admitted to the ICU with and without cirrhosis using the matched Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation III (APACHE III) and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores. METHODS A retrospective ca...
Repeated administration of thioacetamide (TA), either intraperitoneally or in drinking water, produced liver cirrhosis in normal Sprague-Dawley rats (SDR) with significant histological alterations similar to those observed in human cirrhosis. In the present study, we evaluated the ability of TA to induce liver cirrhosis in mutant Nagase analbuminaemic SDR. Thioacetamide was administered either ...
