ANALYSIS OF CONTEMPORARY APPROACHES TO RISK FACTORS IN THE ETIOLOGY OF LIVER CIRRHOSIS

This thesis analyses the aetiological factors, underlying pathophysiological mechanisms, clinical stages, and complications of liver cirrhosis based on a review of the scientific literature. Particular attention is given to the assessment of disease severity using the Child–Pugh classification, the early detection of complications, and the principles of aetiology-directed and pathogenesis-based treatment.
