Core Tip |
The etiologies and clinical characteristics of liver cirrhosis (LC) in hospitalized patients changed during the 2001-2020 period in Southern China. The mean age and female proportion have increased but the disease severity at LC diagnosis has alleviated over time. The proportion of hepatitis B virus-LC has decreased, while proportions of LC caused by alcoholic liver disease, autoimmune hepatitis and mixed etiology have increased gradually. Among all complications of LC, hepatocellular carcinoma and acute-on-chronic liver failure manifest the highest increase in prevalence and are associated with the highest risk of in-hospital mortality. |
