Obesity and Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Biochemical, Metabolic and Clinical Implications

Despite the increasing prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), the criteria used to diagnose the disorder remain poorly defined. Localized proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MR...

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy to measure hepatic triglyceride content: prevalence of hepatic steatosis in the general population

Quantification of liver fat using magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Xenobiotic-induced liver injury is a clinically important etiology of hepatic disease that, if not recognized, can lead to hepatic failure. In this article we discuss the mechanisms of xenobiotic-induced liver injury, various factors that can alter the risk and severity of injury, the clinical and laboratory manifestations of injury, and the methods used to detect the presence of injury and (or) functioning liver mass.

Xenobiotic-induced hepatotoxicity: mechanisms of liver injury and methods of monitoring hepatic function

The spectrum of liver disease in systemic lupus erythematosus. Report of 33 histologically-proved cases and review of the literature

Fatty liver may be defined as an acctJmulation of lipid, consisting principally of triglycerides in most cases, which exceeds 5~ of the liver weight. The clinical importance of excess fat varies with its cause and quantity. In some instances (ie, obesity) it may be of little consequence, whereas in others (ie, fatty liver of pregnancy) it may lead to hepatic failure and death. The aim of this brief review is to summarize the main clinical and biochemical features of the principal conditions associated with significant fatty infiltration of the liver as the primary pathologic finding.
