Hepatitis C and hepatic steatosis [PDF]
QJM, 2010 Hepatic steatosis is commonly seen in patients with chronic hepatitis C infection, and the two together have a greater association than by chance alone. Hepatitis C virus is closely associated with lipid metabolism throughout its lifecycle. Hepatic steatosis is more common in genotype 3 infection, due to direct viral effects including through ...

Steatosis and hepatitis C [PDF]
Gastroenterology Report, 2015 Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a common liver disease worldwide with a high rate of chronicity (75-80%) in infected individuals. The chronic form of HCV leads to steatosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellualr carcinoma. Steatosis is prevalent in HCV patients (55%) due to a combination of viral factors (effect of viral proteins on some of the ...

Adipokines and redox signaling: impact on fatty liver disease. [PDF]
, 2011 Adipokines (adipose tissue cytokines) are polypeptide factors secreted by adipose tissue in a highly regulated manner. The 'classical' adipokines (leptin, adiponectin, and resistin) are expressed only by adipocytes, but other adipokines have been shown ...

Hepatic steatosis is associated with surgical-site infection after hepatic and colorectal surgery. [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND Obesity and increased visceral fat deposits are important risk factors for surgical-site infection (SSI). Interestingly, a potential role of hepatic steatosis on complications after extrahepatic surgery remains unknown.
