Abstract:
Adaptive physiological changes during pregnancy lead to increased fragility of the liver, impaired buffer capacity, and rapid disease progression, and such changes may weaken the signals or clinical manifestations of liver diseases, which increases the difficulties in early diagnosis and treatment. However, severe liver disease is a dynamic process, and timely identification of early signs of liver disease during pregnancy and establishment of early diagnosis and disease severity scoring system based on big data are the basis for determining the diagnosis and treatment of liver disease during pregnancy and deciding the timing and mode of delivery, as well as the key to improving the cure and reducing the mortality rate of liver disease during pregnancy.
