in which scarring can lead to organ failure. Aging is a key risk factor for cirrhosis among those who have been diagnosed with non-alcoholic liver disease, known as metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, or MASLD. One in three adults world...
Therefore, in hepatic cirrhosis, 1) T4 metabolism is altered with lowering of T4 and T3 and a rise in rT3. 2) These changes may be dependent on the degree of hepatocellular damage and reverse on improvement in liver function. 3) T4, T3, and rT3 levels are useful prognostic indices. ...
1. You can do nothing and keep “ignoring” your problem. You’ll find yourself getting sicker, heavier, and angrier. You increase your risk of stroke, heart attack, cirrhosis, and liver cancer. Do you really want that for yourself?
A disrupted gut barrier leads to an increase in bacterial translocation and an activation of the mucosal immune system and secretion of inflammatory mediators that plays a key role in the progression of liver disease towards decompensated cirrhosis in HCV-infected patients. In addition, both ...

Liver injury is a multi-factorial disease caused by environmental and chemical toxins, drugs, and alcohol intake, which induce oxidative stress, leading to complicated pathophysiology. Typically, the end result of this is cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) [2,3]. The liver is rich in ...
While telomere shortening is a feature of chronic liver diseases and cirrhosis, telomerase reactivation through TERT promoter mutations (30%–60%), amplifications (5%–6%) and HBV integration into the TERT promoter or the gene body of TERT (10%–15%) is associated with hepatocarcinogenesis. Two...
As a result, prolonged and often life-long treatments are necessary to control viral replication and reduce the risk of advanced liver diseases such as cirrhosis and liver cancer. Accordingly, there are high chances of emergence of viral resistant mutants8. Moreover, a large number of Chinese ...
