Plasma Zinc and renal clearance of Zinc have been studied in patients with various chronic hepatic disorders. Plasma Zinc levels were reduced in patients with all forms of chronic hepatic disease and were of no value in differentiating these conditions. The renal clearance of Zinc was found to be significantly higher in patients with chronic hepatic disease of alcoholic aetiology (1.25 ml./min.) compared with those of non-alcoholic aetiology (0.52 ml./min.) and normal subjects (0.33 ml./min.). The renal clearance of Zinc may be of value in identifying chronic hepatic disease in which alcohol is aetiologically involved.
对患有各种慢性肝病的患者进行了血浆锌和锌的肾清除率研究。所有形式的慢性肝病患者血浆锌水平均降低，且在区分这些病症方面无价值。发现酒精性病因的慢性肝病患者锌的肾清除率（1.25毫升/分钟）明显高于非酒精性病因患者（0.52毫升/分钟）和正常受试者（0.33毫升/分钟）。锌的肾清除率在识别酒精为病因的慢性肝病方面可能有价值。
