THE INFLUENCE OF EXTERNAL FACTORS ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF TOXIC HEPATITIS AND METHODS FOR ITS REHABILITATION
Abstract
This scientific article analyzes the role of external factors (chemical substances, industrial poisons, drugs, alcohol, heavy metals, pesticides) in the etiology of toxic hepatitis and the mechanisms of their damaging effects on hepatocytes. The article briefly covers the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and diagnostic criteria of toxic hepatitis. The main focus is on modern methods of liver rehabilitation — detoxification, hepatoprotectors, antioxidants, dietary therapy, and preventive measures. The article substantiates the need for the integration of environmental, occupational, and personal hygiene factors in the prevention and treatment of toxic hepatitis.
