Renal failure in fulminant hepatic failure and terminal cirrhosis: a comparison between incidences, types and prognosis. Gut. 1981; 22 :585–591.Ring-Larsen H, Palazzo U. Renal failure in fulminant hepatic failure and terminal cirrhosis: a comparison between incidence, types, and prognosis. Gut ...
There was no evidence of cirrhosis. The livers of the previously reported cases of Wilson's disease accompanied by fulminant hepatic failure were all cirrhotic. Our case indicated that Wilson's disease could occur as true fulminant hepatic failure without preceeding neurological and hepatological ...
Renal failure was considered present when the serum creatinine was greater than 0.20 mmol/l. Of the patients with cirrhosis 26 (65%) developed renal failure. In 15 the type was functional, in three due to acute tubular necrosis, and in eight indeterminable. Of the patients with fulminant ...
The system has proven effective in treatment of patients with serious drug overdose and has demonstrated positive effects in treatment of stage 4 coma due to hepatic failure. Recently, the charcoal in this system has been preloaded with branch chain amino acids to return these acids to patients ...

Introduction Hepatic fibrosis is a dynamic process characterized by excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix resulting from chronic liver injury. If left untreated, hepatic fibrosis ultimately leads to cirrhosis, liver failure, or hepatocellular carcinoma. The incidence of hepatic fibrosis is increasing...
Its progressive form, termed nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) (1), is a significant predisposing factor for the development of cryptogenic cirrhosis and hepatic failure and an increasingly common indication for liver transplantation (2, 3). Insulin resistance is a very significant contributor to the...
If the damage persists, the fibrotic process will result in liver failure and cirrhosis, causing more than 1.32 million deaths annually globally [4]. Regrettably, no effective drug for the treatment of hepatic fibrosis has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration so far. Therefore, a ...
Thus, we deduce that human hepatic cirrhosis might experience a similar pattern as rat hepatic fibrosis: reticular network along hepatic cords would be damaged and collapse during when hepatic cirrhosis develops. In addition, our previous research, hepatocyte epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) of ...
