Abstract
Background: The liver plays a key role in glucose homeostasis, and chronic liver disease leads to chronic disturbances in glucose metabolism. Thus, diabetes following cirrhosis is called hepatogenous diabetes (HD)< Although most patients with cirrhosis have impaired glucose metabolism,the clinical impacts of HD on cirrhosis haveyet to be clearly elucidated.Several studies have shown that HD is significantly correlated with poor prognosis in long-term follow-up, but diabetes does not affect short term survival. Death and short-term survival correlate mainly with complications of cirrhosis or portal hypertension (PHT), such as variceal hemorrhage,infection, or hepatocellular failure.
