Descrizione Cirrhosis of The liver in Bangladesh
Cirrhosis - is the end result of chronic liver disease, associated with significant mortality and morbidity and one of the major burden for health care facilities globally. Nearly 350 and 150 million people are infected with HBV and HCV virus worldwide respectively. The clinical manifestations of these two viral infections are associated with an asymptomatic at one end and advanced cirrhosis and hepatocelluler carcinoma at the other end of the spectrum.Testing of blood, use of disposable syringes and needles reducing the prevalence of Hepatitis B & C. But these are not universally available and till date little is known about the prevalence and its complications in Bangladesh. I hope this book would found useful not only in Bangladesh but also in the west by post. Graduates, gastroenterologists, hematologists, microbiologists, basic scientists and people working in the field of preventive medicines. I eventually hope this small effort would contribute in achieving the millennium goal and appropriate authorities would also find the data to be useful references for calculating disease burden ,implementation of vaccination programs and to support the preventive measures in the country
