  • 6.14 Alcohol Use Disorders and Alcoholic Liver Disease
    6. Priority diseases and reasons for inclusion 6.14 Alcohol use disorders and alcoholic liver disease See Background Paper 6.14 (BP6_14Alcohol.pdf) Background The WHO estimates that alcohol is now the third highest risk factor for premature mortality, disability and loss of health worldwide.1 Between 2004 to 2006, alcohol use accounted for about 3.8% of all deaths (2.5 million) and about 4.5% (69.4 million) of Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYS).2 Europe is the largest consumer of alcohol in the world and alcohol consumption in this region emerges as the third leading risk factor for disease and mortality.3 In European countries in 2004, an estimated one in seven male deaths (95 000) and one in 13 female deaths (over 25 000) in the 15 to 64 age group were due to alcohol-related causes.3 Alcohol is a causal factor in 60 types of diseases and injuries and a contributing factor in 200 others, and accounts for 20% to 50% of the prevalence of cirrhosis of the liver. Alcohol Use Disorders (AUD) account for a major part of neuropsychiatric disorders and contribute substantially to the global burden of disease. Alcohol dependence accounts for 71% of all alcohol-related deaths and for about 60% of social costs attributable to alcohol.4 The acute effects of alcohol consumption on the risk of both unintentional and intentional injuries also have a sizeable impact on the global burden of disease.2 Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is the commonest cause of cirrhosis in the western world, and is currently one of the ten most common causes of death.5 Liver fibrosis caused by alcohol abuse and its end stage, cirrhosis, present enormous problems for health care worldwide.

  • Clinical Biliary Tract and Pancreatic Disease
    Clinical Upper Gastrointestinal Disorders in Urgent Care, Part 2: Biliary Tract and Pancreatic Disease Urgent message: Upper abdominal pain is a common presentation in urgent care practice. Narrowing the differential diagnosis is sometimes difficult. Understanding the pathophysiology of each disease is the key to making the correct diagnosis and providing the proper treatment. TRACEY Q. DAVIDOFF, MD art 1 of this series focused on disorders of the stom- Pach—gastritis and peptic ulcer disease—on the left side of the upper abdomen. This article focuses on the right side and center of the upper abdomen: biliary tract dis- ease and pancreatitis (Figure 1). Because these diseases are regularly encountered in the urgent care center, the urgent care provider must have a thorough understand- ing of them. Biliary Tract Disease The gallbladder’s main function is to concentrate bile by the absorption of water and sodium. Fasting retains and concentrates bile, and it is secreted into the duodenum by eating. Impaired gallbladder contraction is seen in pregnancy, obesity, rapid weight loss, diabetes mellitus, and patients receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN). About 10% to 15% of residents of developed nations will form gallstones in their lifetime.1 In the United States, approximately 6% of men and 9% of women 2 have gallstones. Stones form when there is an imbal- ©Phototake.com ance in the chemical constituents of bile, resulting in precipitation of one or more of the components.

  • Alcoholic Liver Disease and Its Relationship with Metabolic Syndrome
    Research and Reviews Alcoholic Liver Disease and Its Relationship with Metabolic Syndrome JMAJ 53(4): 236–242, 2010 Hiromasa ISHII,*1 Yoshinori HORIE,*2 Yoshiyuki YAMAGISHI,*3 Hirotoshi EBINUMA*3 Abstract Alcoholic liver disease (ALD), which occurs from chronic excessive drinking, progresses from initial alcoholic fatty liver to more advanced type such as alcoholic hepatitis, liver fibrosis, or liver cirrhosis when habitual drinking continues. In general, chance of liver cirrhosis increases after 20 years of chronic heavy drinking, but liver cirrhosis can occur in women after a shorter period of habitual drinking at a lower amount of alcohol. Alcoholic liver cirrhosis accounts for approximately 20% of all liver cirrhosis cases. The key treatment is abstinence or substantial cutting down on drinking; the prognosis is poor if the patient continues drinking after being diagnosed with liver cirrhosis. Factors that exert adverse effects on the progression of ALD include gender difference, presence of hepatitis virus, immunologic abnormality, genetic polymorphism of alcohol-metabolizing enzymes, and complication of obesity or overweight. Recently, particular attention has been paid to obesity and overweight as risk factors in the progression of ALD. Conditions such as visceral fat accumulation, obesity, and diabetes mellitus underlie the pathologic factor of metabolic syndrome (MetS). In liver, MetS may accompany fatty liver or steatohepatitis, with possible progression to liver cirrhosis in some cases. Caution is required for patients with MetS who have a high alcohol intake because alcohol consumption further accelerates the progression of liver lesions. Key words Alcoholic liver disease, Metabolic syndrome, Obesity, NAFLD/NASH Introduction following hypertension and smoking, as a global disease burden.

  • Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
    Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease Description Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a buildup of excessive fat in the liver that can lead to liver damage resembling the damage caused by alcohol abuse, but that occurs in people who do not drink heavily. The liver is a part of the digestive system that helps break down food, store energy, and remove waste products, including toxins. The liver normally contains some fat; an individual is considered to have a fatty liver (hepatic steatosis) if the liver contains more than 5 to 10 percent fat. The fat deposits in the liver associated with NAFLD usually cause no symptoms, although they may cause increased levels of liver enzymes that are detected in routine blood tests. Some affected individuals have abdominal pain or fatigue. During a physical examination, the liver may be found to be slightly enlarged. Between 7 and 30 percent of people with NAFLD develop inflammation of the liver (non- alcoholic steatohepatitis, also known as NASH), leading to liver damage. Minor damage to the liver can be repaired by the body. However, severe or long-term damage can lead to the replacement of normal liver tissue with scar tissue (fibrosis), resulting in irreversible liver disease (cirrhosis) that causes the liver to stop working properly. Signs and symptoms of cirrhosis, which get worse as fibrosis affects more of the liver, include fatigue, weakness, loss of appetite, weight loss, nausea, swelling (edema), and yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes (jaundice). Scarring in the vein that carries blood into the liver from the other digestive organs (the portal vein) can lead to increased pressure in that blood vessel (portal hypertension), resulting in swollen blood vessels (varices) within the digestive system.

  • Diagnosis and Management of Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia in Patients with Liver and Bowel Disorders
    Journal of Clinical Medicine Review Diagnosis and Management of Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia in Patients with Liver and Bowel Disorders Cristiana Bianco 1 , Elena Coluccio 1, Daniele Prati 1 and Luca Valenti 1,2,* 1 Department of Transfusion Medicine and Hematology, Fondazione IRCCS Ca’ Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, 20122 Milan, Italy; [email protected] (C.B.); [email protected] (E.C.); [email protected] (D.P.) 2 Department of Pathophysiology and Transplantation, Università degli Studi di Milano, 20122 Milan, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-02-50320278; Fax: +39-02-50320296 Abstract: Anemia is a common feature of liver and bowel diseases. Although the main causes of anemia in these conditions are represented by gastrointestinal bleeding and iron deficiency, autoimmune hemolytic anemia should be considered in the differential diagnosis. Due to the epidemiological association, autoimmune hemolytic anemia should particularly be suspected in patients affected by inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, such as autoimmune or acute viral hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, and inflammatory bowel disease. In the presence of biochemical indices of hemolysis, the direct antiglobulin test can detect the presence of warm or cold reacting antibodies, allowing for a prompt treatment. Drug-induced, immune-mediated hemolytic anemia should be ruled out. On the other hand, the choice of treatment should consider possible adverse events related to the underlying conditions. Given the adverse impact of anemia on clinical outcomes, maintaining a high clinical suspicion to reach a prompt diagnosis is the key to establishing an adequate treatment.

  • Hepatitis C and Alcohol
    Hepatitis C and Alcohol Eugene R. Schiff, M.D., and Nuri Ozden, M.D. Patients infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) who drink heavily are likely to suffer more severe liver injury, promoting disease progression to cirrhosis and increasing their risk for liver cancer. Some research, although not conclusive, suggests that even moderate drinking may spur liver damage in HCV-infected patients. Research areas that have the greatest potential for developing more effective treatment options include HCV virology, immunology, animal models, and the mechanisms of liver injury.

  • Or Ascending Cholangitis) Is a Clinical Syndrome That Is Classically Characterized by the Triad Of
    ACUTE ASCENDING CHOLANGITIS Introduction Acute cholangitis (or ascending cholangitis) is a clinical syndrome that is classically characterized by the triad of: ● Fever ● Abdominal pain ● Jaundice The condition occurs as a result of obstruction/ stasis and subsequent infection within the biliary tract. In the absence of appropriate treatment the condition has significant potential for mortality and morbidity. It is a medical emergency that requires prompt antibiotic treatment and urgent relief of biliary obstruction (usually by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography ERCP). History Jean M. Charcot was the first to describe this illness in 1877. He described a triad of fever, jaundice, and right upper quadrant pain. Epidemiology Acute cholangitis is predominantly seen in adults, most commonly around 40-70 years of age. Physiology Normal barrier mechanisms to cholangitis infection include ● The sphincter of Oddi, which normally forms an effective mechanical barrier to duodenal reflux and ascending bacterial infection. ● Continuous flushing action of bile plus the bacteriostatic activity of bile salts which help maintain bile sterility. ● Secretory IgA and biliary mucous probably also function as anti-adherence factors, preventing bacterial colonization Pathology Organisms: Ascending cholangitis is usually associated with Gram-negative or anaerobic sepsis. ● Aerobic organisms include Escherichia coli and Klebsiella and Enterococcus species. ● The most common anaerobic organism is Bacteroides fragilis. Clostridia may also cause serious infection. Causes: Ascending cholangitis essentially occurs as consequence of obstruction of the biliary tract. Stasis leads to secondary bacterial infection; the organisms typically ascending from the duodenum. Biliary obstruction raises intrabiliary pressure and leads to increased permeability of bile ductules, permitting translocation of bacteria and toxins from the portal circulation into the biliary tract.
