Abstract

Liver fibrosis is a significant medical and economic problem in many countries, particularly developed ones, with excess incidence of overweight and obesity, as well as in the countries with high incidence of viral hepatitis. Taking into account the significant progress in the molecular understanding of liver fibrosis, the problem of early diagnostics, disease course prediction and search for effective pathogenetically substantiated approaches to its treatment remains important. The presented article highlights the main methods of posthepatitis liver fibrosis diagnostics after elimination of viral hepatitis type C and in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease affected by overweight and obesity by evaluating fibrosis serum markers. Authors highlighted connections with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, posthepatitis liver fibrosis after elimination of viral hepatitis type C in patients with overweight and obesity, perspective directions for the use of these data are also formulated.
