The useful predictors of zinc deficiency for the management of chronic liver disease

Background Zinc deficiency is likely to occur in chronic liver disease. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of zinc deficiency in different types of chronic liver disease and to identify the factors that predicted low serum zinc levels. Methods The study was an observational single...

Zusammenfassung:Background Zinc deficiency is likely to occur in chronic liver disease. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of zinc deficiency in different types of chronic liver disease and to identify the factors that predicted low serum zinc levels. Methods The study was an observational single-center design. We obtained the medical records of 666 patients with chronic liver disease whose serum zinc levels had been measured. The cutoff value for zinc deficiency was a serum level
