Systemic abnormalities often occur in patients with liver disease. In particular, cardiopulmonary or renal diseases accompanied by advanced liver disease can be serious and may determine the quality of life and prognosis of patients. Therefore, both hepatologists and non-hepatologists should pay attention to such abnormalities in the management of patients with liver diseases.
系统性异常在肝病患者中经常出现。特别是，伴有晚期肝病的心肺或肾脏疾病可能很严重，并可能决定患者的生活质量和预后。因此，肝病学家和非肝病学家在肝病患者的管理中都应关注此类异常。
