Abstract
- The article reports that alcoholic liver disease (ALD), induced by long-term heavy alcohol consumption, encompasses a progressive clinical-histological spectrum of liver injuries from simple fatty liver to alcoholic hepatitis, hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis. It notes that hepatitis virus infection exerts a synergistic effect on alcohol-induced liver injury. It adds that ALD could both accelerate the development and progression of liver diseases.
