| Core Tip |
This review explores hepatocrinology, the interplay between liver function and the endocrine system, focusing on endocrine disorders in liver cirrhosis. Cirrhosis triggers endocrine disorders like diabetes, hypoglycemia, sarcopenia, hepatic bone disease, secondary hyperaldosteronism, and thyroid, adrenal and growth hormone dysfunction. Diagnosis includes biochemical and hormonal assays and imaging studies. Treatment involves drugs like metformin, insulin, and hormone replacement therapies, while liver transplantation can alleviate certain conditions. Timely recognition and intervention are crucial for reducing associated morbidity and mortality in cirrhotic patients. |
