Abstract
Clinical hepatology has recently gained a wider recognition among medical community owing to the advancements in liver biochemical investigations and with liver diseases now being increasingly recognized as a major threat to public health. Malnutrition, drug addiction, alcohol abuse and environmental pollution are prevalent across different regions of the world which are identified to be associated with risk factors of liver diseases. Liver diseases, if highly prevalent and if remain untreated, may lead to reduced longevity and productivity and can hamper the socioeconomic contribution.
