Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of the interaction between alcohol intake and cofactors [hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), body mass index] and coffee consumption on the risk of cirrhosis. DESIGN: Seven hundred and forty-nine consecutive patients with chronic liver disease referring to units for liver or alcohol diseases in Italy during a 6-months period. Teetotalers were excluded. The odds ratios (OR) for cirrhosis were evaluated using chronic hepatitis cases as the control group. RESULTS: An alcohol intake of more than 3 units/day resulted associated with the likelihood of cirrhosis both in males (OR 4.3; 95% CI=2.5-7.3) and in females (OR 5.7; 95% CI=2.3-14.5). A multiplicative interaction on the risk of cirrhosis between risky alcohol intake and HBsAg or HCV-Ab/HCV-RNA positivity was observed. A reduction of cirrhosis risk was observed in subjects consuming more than 3 alcohol units/day with increasing coffee intake. The OR for the association with cirrhosis decreased from 2.3 (95% CI=1.2-4.4) in subjects drinking 0-2 cups of coffee/day to 1.4 (95% CI=0.6-3.6) in those drinking more than 2 cups/day. CONCLUSIONS: In subjects with an alcohol intake >3 units/day the coexistence of HBV or HCV multiplies the risk of cirrhosis. Coffee represents a modulator of alcoholic cirrhosis risk.

Abstract

LA NOSTRA ESPERIENZA DESCRIVE IL PRIMO CASO RIPORTATO DI INTERFERENZA TRA PACEMAKER E VIDEOCAPSULA (ENDOCAPSULE OLIMPUS) CON ALTERATA REGISTRAZIONE DELLE IMMAGINI SENZA ALCUNA INTERFERENZA SULL'ATTIVITA' DEL PACEMAKER. SULLA BASE DI QUESTO CASO, CONFERMIAMO CHE LA ENTEROSCOPIA CON VIDEOCAPSULA PUO' ESSERE PRATICATA IN MANIERA SICURA IN PAZIENTE PORTATORE DI PACEMAKER CARDIACO E RACCOMANDIAMO UN ACCURATO MONITORAGGIO DELL'ATTIVITA' CARDIACA PRIMA, DURANTE E DOPO L'ESAME PER VALUTARE IL CORRETTO FUNZIONAMENTO DEL PACEMAKER ED UN PREVENTIVO IDONEO POSIZIONAMENTO DEL RECORDER PER RIDURRE LA POSSIBILITA' DI INTERFERENZE CHE POSSANO LIMITARE L'EFFICACIA DIAGNOSTICA DELL'INDAGINE.

Abstract

This study was undertaken to evaluate by anthropmetric measurements the nutritional status of cirrhotic patients at different stages of the disease and to establish intra- and inter-observer variability in the determination of these parameters. In 60 healthy controls and 108 cirrhotics (63 'well compensated' and 45 'decompensated' groups A and B + C on the Child-Pugh classification respectively) two independent experienced observers measured biceps, triceps, subscapular and overiliac skinfold thicknesses and arm circumference three times. Each observer was unaware of the results obtained by the other. No significant intra- or inter-observer variability was found. The study indicates that skinfold thickness measurements are a reliable and reproducible method of assessing the nutritional status of cirrhotics. It was found that more than 50 per cent of the decompensated patients were malnourished, with skinfold values significantly lower than those of the controls. In comparison with skinfold thickness and arm circumference, parameters such as body weight and lean body mass are unreliable, and other indices such as muscle and/or fat arm area do not add any significant information to the evaluation of the nutritional status of cirrhotics.

Abstract

Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was measured in 19 patients with Child A liver cirrhosis by comparing the endogenous creatinine clearance with inulin clearance. Inulin clearance averaged 90 +/- 4.4 ml/min x 1.73 m2, while creatinine clearance averaged 122 +/- 7 ml/min x 1.73 m2 (p < 0.001). The overestimation of GFR by creatinine was present in 18 of 19 patients and was inversely correlated with inulin clearance (r = -0.452, p < 0.04). The data point to the unsuitability of creatinine as a marker of filtration in early posthepatitic cirrhosis (Child A).
