Overview

Liver disease is any pathological process that impairs the structure or function of the liver, ranging from reversible injury to end-stage organ failure. Major categories include viral hepatitis, alcohol-related and metabolic (steatotic) liver disease, drug- and toxin-induced injury, autoimmune and cholestatic disorders, and hepatic malignancy. Because the liver controls protein and clotting-factor synthesis, bile secretion, glucose and lipid metabolism, and the clearance of toxins, disease manifests through jaundice, ascites, encephalopathy and coagulopathy and is detected biochemically through aminotransferases and synthetic-function markers. Chronic injury drives a fibrogenic sequence that can culminate in cirrhosis, portal hypertension and hepatocellular carcinoma. Work in this area covers the burden and trends of chronic liver disease in hospital-based cohorts, vitamin D deficiency in chronic liver disease and its clinical significance, genetic polymorphisms associated with fatty liver disease and treatment-related steatosis in HIV, tenofovir treatment of chronic hepatitis B, elastography in portal hypertension, polycystic liver disease, and alcohol-related associations among plasma TREM2, liver enzymes and an MS4A6A polymorphism. Epigenetic and nutritional influences on hepatic health are also represented. The journal publishes peer-reviewed clinical, genetic and experimental research across the breadth of hepatic disease, injury and protection.
