SINCE Laennec1 (1869) defined cirrhosis of the liver, it has become apparent that the disease may occur in a variety of clinical and pathological forms. Accepted etiologic factors contribute to hepatic disease in hemochromatosis, Wilson's disease and biliary or cardiac cirrhosis, but the cause of cirrhosis in the majority of patients remains uncertain.

Effects of selenium deficiency, induced by thioacetamide, were investigated in rats. Thioacetamide (0.3 g/L) given in drinking water, as expected, caused a significant loss of selenium from the liver. It was accompanied by liver cirrhosis and a significant increase in the liver weight as well as liver to body weight ratio.

Patients with chronic liver disease exhibit a progressive loss of fat and muscle mass leading to mixed protein-energy malnutrition. The severe loss of muscle mass and body cell mass have convincingly been shown to carry a grave prognosis. Cachexia is likely to progress due to increased requirements as a consequence of hypermetabolism on the one hand ...
