The Impact of Liver Cell Injury on Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients with Chronic Liver Disease

Abstract

Different parameters are influencing HRQL and CK18 levels in chronic non-viral liver disease and the amount of hepatocellular apoptosis correlates with the impairment in HRQL in chronic non-viral liver diseases. These findings support the role of liver-protective therapies for the improvement of the quality of life in chronic liver disease.
