The application of molecular biology techniques has brought more new biomarkers for the study of the prognosis of liver cirrhosis. Gambino's research revealed the utility of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) as a reliable biomarker of acute kidney injury (AKI) in cirrhosis, i...
The side effects of rifampin include elevation of bilirubin, dark urine, hepatitis (more rarely), reduced numbers of blood platelets (small elements that help stop bleeding from a cut surface), and kidney damage. Opiod antagonists for itching The fact that some patients who receive opiate ...
The outlook is less favorable if liver damage is extensive or if someone with cirrhosis does not stop drinking. People with cirrhosis usually die of bleeding that can't be stopped, serious infections or kidney failure. They often enter irreversible coma in their last days....

Avoid nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, e.g.,ibuprofen). Patients with cirrhosis can experience worsening of liver and kidney function with NSAIDs. Acetaminophen(Tylenol, Panadol) can be toxic to the liver and should be avoided if possible. ...
Besides cirrhosis, the affected person may show jaundice, gastrointestinal bleeding, and kidney failure. In the early stage of cirrhosis, the disease can be stabilized by abstention from alcohol and by an adequate diet. In this stage, the liver first enlarges; its outer capsule becomes smooth ...
Your liver disease can also lead to a kidney disease called hepatorenal syndrome, a lung disease called hepatopulmonary syndrome, and liver cancer. Cirrhosis Complications Damage from cirrhosis can keep your liver from doing important jobs such as removing toxins from your body and helping you digest...
The concept of structural kidney damage and renal dysfunction as a result of jaundice attracted attention in the medical community in the early and mid-20th century. The postulated doctrine of the time was that the excretion of elevated concentrations of bile results in bile-stained casts occupying...
