primary biliary cirrhosis
chronic, autoimmune cholestatic liver disease
oliguria is to
hepatorenal syndrome
alcoholic liver disease is related to
2
toxic effects of alcohol and coexisting liver disease
alcoholic fatty liver aka
steatosis
hepatorenal syndrome - the renal failure is not caused by primary renal disease but rather by
3
- portal HTN
- cardiac impairment
- circulatory alterations associated with advanced liver disease i.e. cirrhosis
cirrhosis - mitochondrial function is impaired which does what
decreases oxidation of fatty acid
alcoholic fatty liver/steatosis is caused by
small amounts of alcohol
the incidence of alcoholic cirrhosis is greatest in
middle age men
hard/firm liver that is cobblestoned
cirrhosis
alcoholic fatty liver/steatosis
mildest form of alcoholic liver disease
liver - excessive amounts of acetaldehyde alter what
hepatocyte function and activate hepatic stellate cells (cells that cause fibrosis)
steatosis aka
alcoholic fatty liver
cirrhosis fibrosis is a consequence of 3 -infiltration of -release of -activation of
- infiltration of leukocytes
- release of inflammatory mediators
- activation of hepatic stellate cells and myofibroblasts
hepatorenal syndrome manifestations include
6
- oliguria
- sodium and water rentention
- ascites
- peripheral edema
- hypotension
- peripheral vasodilation
irreversible inflammatory, fibrotic liver disease
cirrhosis
alcoholic hep and cirrhosis liver function tests are
abnormal
the spectrum of alcoholic liver disease includes
3
- alcoholic fatty liver
- alcoholic steatophepatitis
- alcoholic cirrhosis
hepatorenal syndrome - the renal failure is not caused by
primary renal disease
sodium and water retention with ascites and peripheral edema
hepatorenal syndrome
damage and inflammation leading to cirrhosis that begin in bile canaliculi and bile ducts
biliary cirrhosis
precursor of cirrhosis
alcoholic steatohepatitis/alcoholic hepatitis
NAFLD is
infiltration of hepatocytes with fat in the absence of alcohol
chronic, autoimmune cholestatic liver disease
primary biliary cirrhosis
alcoholic steatohepatits is characterized by 4 -increased -inflammation -degeneration -infiltration
- increased hepatic fat storage
- inflammation
- degeneration and necrosis of hepatocytes
- infiltration of neutrophils and lymphocytes
