Labour shadow minister who spoke out against gays marrying quits post
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Clearly he hasn't learned anything about equality. Good riddance!
Or justice.
Homophobic scumbag. Get out and stay out ….
Don't let the door hit you on your a**e on the way out!
Damn I was going to say that :p
If he stuck a broom up his backside he could sweep the floor on his way out too.
Your God, Flello, didn't invent civil marriage, nowhere in your bible, so shut the f_ck up! It doesn't mandate procreation and isn't a reason why it was invented in the first place. Delusional catholic loon.
this guy would be my MP if I still lived in the UK. He is my Dad and family's MP though. I did write to him and got a really weird response back from him.
He is using his religion to justify his homophobia.
He should resign from parliament too.
He is a liar as I have a copy of his response – how on earth can he say not one constituent has written to him what a liar.
I can't believe that not one straight constituent wrote to him to support the bill either but he doesn't mention that as if it's irrelevant. He IS a liar indeed!
Another MP who feels their first duty to be towards Rome rather than the electorate who voted them in. I hope he made it clear during his campaign that he was following the bible rather than common sense. Twat
Isn't it a funny coincidence that Sarah Teather resigned as well? Are they getting their orders from the Vatican?
They have to swear alligence to Rome above anything else including civil law, so really no Roman Catholic should ever be in parliament !
Of course your "gay friends and relatives" wouldn't bring "the issue of same-sex marriage" "to [your] attention" if they knew you're such a sneaky little bigot.
Isn't it amazing that virtually every MP opponent to the Marriage Bill seem to have gay friends and relatives as if that exonerates them from homophobia? I suppose not one hetero constituent wrote to him supporting the bill and it wouldn't count because they're not gay? What a liar!
It's actually not amazing at all. It's par for the course. When racist congressmen in the American South were promoting segregation and fighting against the Voting Rights Act, there wasn't a SINGLE one of them that didn't claim that they had close friends who were black. My racist parents used to regularly deny they were gay to strangers by claiming "close black friends". I can remember always rolling my eyes because I knew they were lying through their teeth. The only black people they knew WORKED for them and were hardly their friends.
Same old bigotry, new day, new target.
Did he run before he was pushed.
How many other people wrote to Ed to ask why Labour had a potential Justice Secretary who was willing to put his religious beliefs ahead of his duties of freedom and equality and non-discrimination and the upholding of Human Rights?

Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions. Please tell us, what is CipherCloud all about and what do you do?
Paige Leidig: CipherCloud enables companies to accelerate their adoption of cloud applications while ensuring visibility and control of their data. CipherCloud delivers data privacy, regulatory compliance, and data residency in the Cloud through an open platform that provides comprehensive data discovery, protection (AES encryption, tokenization, data loss prevention, key management, and malware detection) and activity and anomaly monitoring services.
What are you launching at RSA?
Leidig: We are announcing our "discover, protect, monitor" platform strategy to enable enterprises to holistically protect sensitive information in the cloud. The strategy is a three phase cycle:
- Discover - The first step is discovery. To determine the security controls their data requires, enterprises must first identify and classify content that is sensitive, proprietary or regulated before it goes to the cloud. Visibility tools likedata discovery provide the actionable intelligence companies need in order to find and apply the right type of protection to comply with regional and industry specific privacy laws.
- Protect - This is the core of any cloud security strategy. As data thefts escalate, enterprises need security controls that provide robust and granular level data protection to mitigate against compromise without locking outauthorized users. By delivering searchable strong encryption, tokenization, data loss prevention, key management, and malware detection, CipherCloud enables enterprises to seamlessly extend data protection from on premise to thecloud.
- Monitor - This delivers detailed information on all logging, tracking, and auditing of user activities across all cloud applications. Information is aggregated and monitored resulting in the ability to quickly zero-in on violations ofpolicies, identify anomalous patterns, and flag potential security breaches. Examples could include excessive access from locations known to harbor malicious activity or an extreme number of uploads and downloads of data over a shortperiod of time by a particular user indicating malicious intent.
Who is your target audience and how do you intend to reach them? What is the biggest challenge you face right now in telling your story and winning over new clients?
Leidig: Enterprises in the following industries - financial services, insurance, healthcare, insurance, telco, retail, government, and manufacturing etc. We engage with customers through our cloud application partners including Salesforce.com and Box and direct B2B sales channel. In a sense, Edward Snowden's leaks have heightened awareness of the risks in cloud. However, the word is still not viral yet that it's now possible to apply Searchable Strong Encryption - that delivers AES -256- bit encryption, the highest commercially available level to protect data in cloud applications while preserving cloud functionality and usability
How do you differentiate from your competitors?
Leidig: With over 2.6M users benefiting from CipherCloud technology, CipherCloud is the clear leader in cloud information protection. No one else offers a centralized platform to discover, protect and monitor sensitive data going to into cloud applications.
What business or technology could yours disrupt?
Leidig: Cloud is disrupting how enterprises get things done. We are the bridge that enables enterprises to accelerate their adoption of the cloud while protecting their sensitive data.
Who founded the company, when? What can you tell me about the story of the company's founding?
Leidig: Pravin Kothari, an ArcSight cofounder, founded CipherCloud in late 2010 because he saw a huge enterprise security gap in the cloud application layer. Cloud-based services gained popularity but a different model was needed to fully protect information as it moved out of the enterprise's control and into third party clouds. Pravin started by addressing the most imminent need - making searchable strong encryption work for the cloud and giving the keys to the enterprise so that only they have access to the clear text data and the keys that would unscramble the data. Since then, we built out additional security, visibility and monitoring controls (see responses to Q2) to help enterprises continue to accelerate their adoption of the cloud while overcoming the risks.
What is your distribution model? Where to buy your product?
Leidig: Directly through CipherCloud.
CipherCloud, the leader in cloud information protection, enables organizations to securely adopt cloud applications by overcoming data privacy, residency, security, and regulatory compliance risks. CipherCloud delivers an open platform with comprehensive security controls, including AES 256-bit encryption, tokenization, cloud data loss prevention, cloud malware detection and activity monitoring. CipherCloud's ground breaking technology protects sensitive information in real time, before it is sent to the cloud while preserving application usability and functionality.
CipherCloud has experienced exceptional growth and success with over 2 million business users, more than 250 million customer records, in over 10 industries, and with marquee customers around the globe.
The CipherCloud product portfolio protects popular cloud applications out-of-the-box such as salesforce.com, Box, Google Gmail, Microsoft Office 365, and Amazon Web Services. Additionally, CipherCloud for Any App and CipherCloud for Databases enable organizations to extend data protection to hundreds of third-party cloud and private cloud applications and databases.
CipherCloud, named as SC Magazine's 2013 Best Product of the Year, is backed by premier venture capital firms Andreessen Horowitz, Index Ventures, and T-Venture, the venture capital arm of Deutsche Telekom. For more information, visit www.ciphercloud.com and follow us on Twitter @ciphercloud.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

Much of IT terminology is often misused and misapplied. Modernization and transformation are two such terms. They are often used interchangeably even though they mean different things and have very different connotations.

BRAZIL: JBS enters domestic poultry sector with Doux deal
Brazilian meat giant JBS has entered its domestic poultry sector through a deal to lease the local plants of French firm Groupe Doux.
JBS, the world's second-largest poultry processor, said today (4 May) the contract would boost its poultry production capacity by 15%.
The deal comes after speculation in France that Doux had agreed to sell its operations in Brazil to JBS.
The Brazilian firm did not disclose the financial details of the deal but said it would not take on any debt. It plans to hire all workers at the plants, it added.
JBS said it was "strategically important" to have a production platform in the chicken sector in Brazil and North America, as it already has in beef.
"The US and Brazil are the two most relevant countries in the chicken sector. Together they represent 30% of global consumption, 36% of global production and almost 70% of global chicken exports. These indicators prove the relevance and competitiveness of these two countries, their global reach and their very dynamic domestic markets," JBS said.

It finally comes out: Several White Sox players complained about Drake LaRoche
This promises to be a situation that is going to fester for some time. I think the initial mistake was allowing LaRoche to have his son with him at work 100% of the time (assuming that the White Sox actually authorized that much access).

With what is happening in Washington, D.C., right now and upon thinking about the whole mess in more depth, it's actually surprising this didn't happen sooner.
It's easy to blame the current members of Congress for what is happening, but the actual root of the problem stems from a man elected to lead this nation and the fact that he, nor his closest constituents, have no actual experience in handling money. They spent more time and money on shoving a flawed health care plan down our throats thinking it's chocolate syrup, that they didn't see the label is castor oil. No amount of figurative sweetener can make that medicine go down.
Maybe, it's time that this nation pays more attention on how much it spends. It may be the only thing that causes our leaders on both sides of the aisle to actually talk to each other.

Ubico section[edit]
The Ubico section seems a bit unbalanced to me. While it (correctly) notes that his regime was oligarchical and guilty of grave human rights abuses, it omits a lot of facts. Ubico was initially (at least during the first six years of his regime) very popular (of course, he was widely despised by the mid-forties); he virtually eliminated crime and corruption in Guatemala; he contributed substantially to the development of the country's infrastructure (the number of roads increased almost five-fold and Guatemala became an exporter of several crops that it previously imported); etc. Ubico had his good and his bad traits. I'm not saying that his good traits cancel out the bad ones or that we should overstate them while downplaying the bad, but it would be nice if a more complete picture of him and his regime was presented.

I tried to get this company to make it a 5 STAR review, and since it hasn't happened yet, I want to be sure it's out there! Calvin Johnson gets a 5 STAR PLUS!!!
Calvin Johnsonis an artist!!! He understands the complete face and neck, eyes and nose , and he knows exactly how to beautifully enhance what you have! Very gentle, with minimal to no Bruising! His technique is so gentle. He knows what he is doing. Calvin knows the line between plastic surgery and natural!!! I am amazed by my experiences with him! This is my face, and I wouldn't trust it to anyone else!!! He has gone above and beyond my expectations!!! I just wish he would never retire... Grateful I met him and had the honor of having him work in me!!! What a blessing!!!
Staff can be quite rude and elitist but Dr. Calvin is the best.
My eyes and face look great but my neck was not done under my chin when that was the area I specifically talked to him about. When I told him that he walked out the room. I feel ripped off.
Dr. Johnson is an absolute artist and not only do I look fantastic I can breath out of both sides of my nose now.
Dr Johnson trained my husband as a resident and operated on me. He is the only surgeon other than my husband that I would allow to operate on me. He did an excellent job and I am very happy with his work. The office is classy and professional. The staff absolutely wonderful. I would recommend this office to anyone that needs facial cosmetic work hands down!

my 11 month old daughter keeps getting diaper rash, nothing has helped. Is it safe to use Mupirocin ointment to treat her rash?

Sorry this question wasn't answered earlier for you.
Mupirocin is an antibacterial and will only help if the diaper rash has become infected with bacteria. This is unlikely. Diaper rash most often gets infected with a yeast or a fungus called Candida.
Mupirocin should only be used on the recommendation of your doctor.
See: https://www.drugs.com/enc/diaper-rash.html

[quote:Anonymous Coward 642285:MV85MzYyNjdfMTQ1MTk5NjBfMzAxRUY4NDE=] The CMA is NOT an charitable organization. Their concerns over "care to the elderly and poor may increase in cost" really is seated in their fear that they may not be reimbursed as generously for providing routine care to these two populations as they have been in the past. An office visit, blood pressure check, lab results review, and a brief physical can cost as much as 290.xx in some of the higher cost areas of CA. In the less costly areas, the same reimbursement for the same services is usually held to $150 or a little bit more. The lower overhead areas will be forced to hold their costs down and the high rent areas will no longer get a "kicker" in their reimbursement based on their zip code! While they may well pay something more for their rent, they don't pay 38% more and even if they did, the differential per patient should not reflect that whole 38%. The docs in the middle of Beverly Hills and West LA or Downtown San Francisco are afraid that they're going to get paid at the same rate as their peers in Palmdale or Oakland or other less affluent areas. Part of the new healthcare bill wants to pay docs of equal skill sets the same for provision of the same services. While a specialist would always get a few dollars more per component of billing (because of his extra experience and expertise) the fact that his office is in a high dollar zip code does not make him a better doctor, nor does it justify his charging more for a decision he made many years ago when he went into practice, about where to locate his office! Yet now both MediCare and the State run Medi-Cal are paying docs in high cost areas more for the same services than they pay the docs in the lower cost areas. The physicians do not want to loose this "kicker" that partially underwrites the cost of their overhead. But on the other hand, should you be charged more because you visit a doctor in an inner city and his rent is higher there than the guy in the suburbs? This is just one area where the CMA is looking out for their own wallets and lying to the public and to congress about the true nature of their real concern. I for one would much rather hear them say "We need the extra dollars because our office costs us a lot more in this area or that area - but they don't have the guts to be candid about it. They try to manipulate and turn it around and make it a patient care issue - which it is not. It's purely and wholly a financial issue, and it would be nice if they acted as though the public was smart enough to figure out that simple truth. [/quote]

California doctors group opposes U.S. Senate's healthcare plan
The California Medical Assn. says it would increase costs of services and restrict access for elderly and low-income people.
By Molly Hennessy-Fiske
December 3, 2009
The state's largest doctors group is opposing healthcare legislation being debated in the U.S. Senate this week, saying it would increase local healthcare costs and restrict access to care for elderly and low-income patients.
The California Medical Assn. represents more than 35,000 physicians, making it the second-largest state medical group in the country after Texas.
Its executive committee met last week to discuss the Senate legislation proposed last month by Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), also known as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Association leaders plan to announce their opposition later this week before a vote is taken in the Senate, spokesman Andrew LaMar told The Times.
They join a handful of other state medical associations that have opposed the bill in recent weeks, including those in Florida, Georgia and Texas.
"The Senate bill came so short that we could not support it, even though we solidly support healthcare reform," said Dr. Dev GnanaDev, medical director at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in San Bernardino, who also serves on the group's executive committee.
Doctors are concerned that the Senate bill would shift Medicare funding from urban to rural areas, shift responsibility for Medicare oversight away from Congress by creating an independent Medicare commission and decrease Medicare reimbursement rates in the long term.
Medicare reimbursements would decrease 40% in coming years under the Senate bill, LaMar said. California doctors already contend with some of the lowest MediCal reimbursement rates in the nation, and although those would not change under the Senate bill, the pool of people eligible for coverage would increase, he said. Only about a third of California doctors currently accept MediCal, and GnanaDev said that would probably decrease under the Senate plan.
Healthcare legislation passed by the House would raise Medicare reimbursement rates to what LaMar said the association considers "a much more reasonable scale."
However, the association has not endorsed the House bill, which was backed by doctors last month at the national convention of the American Medical Assn. in Houston. The AMA has not taken a position on the Senate bill, although it sent a letter to Reid on Tuesday noting that it opposes the same provisions that California doctors cited, among others.
"We continue to have serious concerns about certain provisions in the bill, and we look forward to working with you and your Senate colleagues to secure additional changes to promote stable and sound health system reforms," wrote Dr. Michael Maves, the AMA's executive vice president.
California Medical Assn. officials have made their position clear to Sens. Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein (both D-Calif.), LaMar said, and have been told that the senators are conveying their concerns to congressional leaders. Boxer supports the bill; Feinstein has not yet taken a position.

Cayman Sand: Nor'Ida claims its latest victim
It's bad enough when natural disasters lay waste to homes and coastline, but we're not sure we can bear the sight of this sort of car-carnage. Like this image, for example, of a Porsche Cayman buried in the sand. But we guess this was bound to happen to a car that shares its name with a Caribbean archipelago (it was actually named after a small species of crocodile).
The shot was taken by Asylum blogger Elizabeth Brady on Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, where the effects of "Nor'Ida" – a particularly strong Nor'Easter conspiring with the remnants of Tropical System Ida – were apparently felt particularly hard.
Natural disaster or no natural disaster, we're sure someone will find a way of blaming this on a low-flying pelican – or perhaps Ferrari boss Luca di Montezemolo.

Alcoholic Hepatitis Workup
- Author: Douglas M Heuman, MD, FACP, FACG, AGAF; Chief Editor: BS Anand, MD more...
Approach Considerations
The diagnosis of alcoholic hepatitis is straightforward and requires no further diagnostic studies in patients presenting with a history of alcohol abuse, typical symptoms and physical findings, evidence of liver functional impairment, and compatible liver enzyme levels. In milder cases of alcoholic hepatitis, a mild elevation of the aspartate aminotransferase (AST) level may be the only diagnostic clue.
Studies have indicated that serum C-reactive protein (CRP) is an accurate marker of alcoholic hepatitis (ie, sensitivity, 41%; specificity, 99%; positive predictive value [PPV], 98%; negative predictive value [NPV], 88%).[17]
An electrolyte panel may demonstrate electrolyte disorders from the effects of vomiting, portal hypertension with decreased circulating volume, alcoholic ketoacidosis, or respiratory alkalosis. In addition, hypophosphatemia and hypomagnesemia are common consequences of coexistent malnutrition.
In August 2012, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) expanded their existing, risk-based testing guidelines to recommend a 1-time blood test for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in baby boomers—the generation born between 1945 and 1965, who account for approximately three fourths of all chronic HCV infections in the United States—without prior ascertainment of HCV risk (see Recommendations for the Identification of Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection Among Persons Born During 1945–1965).[16] One-time HCV testing in this population could identify nearly 808,600 additional people with chronic infection. All individuals identified with HCV should be screened and/or managed for alcohol abuse, followed by referral to preventative and/or treatment services, as appropriate.
Imaging studies are rarely required for the diagnosis of alcoholic hepatitis, but they can be useful in excluding other causes of liver disease. Ultrasonography is generally the preferred modality due to its low cost, noninvasiveness, and wide availability. Similar and complementary information can be obtained by computed tomography (CT) scanning or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the abdomen; however, these 2 imaging studies are more expensive than ultrasonography and are usually required only in atypical cases. CT scanning and MRI are more sensitive and accurate than ultrasonography if cancer is suspected.
CBC Count
A complete blood cell (CBC) count commonly reveals some degree of neutrophilic leukocytosis with bandemia. Usually, this is moderate; however, rarely, it is severe enough to provide a leukemoid picture.
Alcohol is a direct marrow suppressant, and moderate anemia may be observed. In addition, alcohol use characteristically produces a moderate increase in mean corpuscular volume.
Thrombocytosis may be observed as part of the inflammatory response; conversely, myelosuppression or portal hypertension with splenic sequestration may produce thrombocytopenia.
Screening Blood Tests
Screening blood tests to exclude other conditions (appropriate in any patient with alcoholic hepatitis) may include the following:
Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) detects hepatitis B
Anti–hepatitis C virus by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) detects hepatitis C
Ferritin and transferrin saturation detect hemochromatosis
Marked elevation of aminotransferase levels should raise concern for viral hepatitis or drug hepatotoxicity; in particular, people who are alcoholics may develop severe liver necrosis from standard therapeutic doses of acetaminophen
Rapid deterioration of liver function (see Liver Tests) should raise the possibility of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which can be tested for by determination of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels
Jaundice with fever can be caused by gallstones producing cholangitis and is suggested by a disproportionate elevation of the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) level
Liver Tests
Liver enzyme levels exhibit a characteristic pattern. In most patients, the aspartate aminotransferase (AST) level is moderately elevated, whereas the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level is in the reference range or only mildly elevated. This is the opposite of what is observed in most other liver diseases.
An AST/ALT ratio greater than 1 is almost universal in persons with alcoholic hepatitis. Even in severe disease, the elevations of aminotransferase levels are modest, and an AST level greater than 500 U/L should raise suspicion of an alternative diagnosis. An AST/ALT ratio greater than 1 may accompany cirrhosis of any cause and, therefore, is less diagnostically specific in the setting of cirrhosis.
Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) level elevations are typically mild in persons with alcoholic hepatitis. Levels greater than 500 U/L occur in a small percentage of patients, but abnormalities of this magnitude suggest a coexisting infiltrative or biliary obstructive process.
The gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGTP) level is elevated markedly by alcohol use. Although a normal value helps to exclude alcohol as a cause of liver disease, an elevated level is of no value in distinguishing between simple alcoholism and alcoholic hepatitis.
Liver function tests
Common liver function tests include albumin level, bilirubin level, and prothrombin time (PT). Hypoalbuminemia occurs because of decreased hepatic synthetic function and coexisting protein-energy malnutrition (PEM). Hyperbilirubinemia is typically a mixture of unconjugated and conjugated bilirubin, with the latter predominating. Bilirubinuria is normally present in patients who are icteric. Coagulopathy predominantly affects the extrinsic pathway of coagulation (measured by PT). It is usually unresponsive to vitamin K.
The severity of hyperbilirubinemia and coagulopathy reflects the severity of alcoholic hepatitis and is of prognostic value.
Serum biomarkers
Ash test
The diagnostic value of serum biomarkers, such as the Ash test (ie, the 6 components of the FibroTest-ActiTest plus AST), was tested and validated in 275 patients with alcoholic hepatitis.[18] Both the sensitivity and the specificity of the Ash test in predicting alcoholic steatohepatitis were impressive (0.80 and 0.84, respectively).[18]
Carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT)
Carbohydrate-deficient transferrin is perhaps the most reliable marker of chronic alcoholism, irrespective of the presence of liver disease.[19] Carbohydrate-deficient transferrin has been proposed as a reliable biomarker in the differentiation of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) from alcoholic hepatitis.[20]
In general, real-time ultrasonography is the preferred imaging study in evaluating patients with suspected alcoholic hepatitis, because it is inexpensive, noninvasive, and widely available. This modality provides a good evaluation of the liver and other viscera, and it permits guided liver biopsy.
On ultrasonograms, the liver in patients with alcoholic hepatitis appears enlarged and diffusely hyperechoic. Features suggestive of coexistent portal hypertension and/or cirrhosis include the presence of varices, splenomegaly, and ascites.
Ultrasonography is also helpful in excluding gallstones, bile duct obstruction, and hepatic or biliary neoplasms. Jaundice with fever can be caused by gallstones producing cholangitis; ultrasonographic examination of the abdomen is usually sufficient to exclude this possibility. However, if stones are found or fever persists, cholangiography may be necessary.
Rapid deterioration of liver function should raise the possibility of hepatocellular carcinoma, which can be tested for by performing imaging studies (eg, ultrasonography, computed tomography [CT] scanning, magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) of the liver.
Liver Biopsy
Liver biopsy is not always required in the evaluation of alcoholic hepatitis, but it may be useful in establishing the diagnosis, in determining the presence or absence of cirrhosis, and in excluding other causes of liver disease.
The 2010 American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) alcoholic liver disease (ALD) practice guideline recommends considering liver biopsy for patients whose diagnosis is reasonably uncertain and for patients likely to undergo medical treatment for severe alcoholic hepatitis. The risk of performing the biopsy should be weighed against the risk associated with the probable course of therapy, or the possible risk of an investigational treatment.[3]
Percutaneous liver biopsy
Percutaneous biopsy can be performed at the bedside by an experienced practitioner, usually a gastroenterologist or a hepatologist. Real-time ultrasonographic guidance may be desirable to optimize biopsy site selection and to reduce the risk of complications.
Usually, a biopsy should be avoided in the presence of severe thrombocytopenia or coagulopathy because of the risk of serious (possibly fatal) hemorrhage.
Transjugular liver biopsy
If biopsy information is considered essential and the risk of percutaneous biopsy appears excessive, an alternative approach is to perform a biopsy angiographically via a catheter passed into the hepatic vein under fluoroscopic guidance. In principle, the risk of hemorrhage should be reduced, because the puncture site is contained within the venous system.
At the time of transjugular liver biopsy, the angiographer can determine the transhepatic venous pressure gradient. In alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis, the pressure measurement obtained with a catheter wedged retrograde in a branch of the hepatic vein accurately reflects the portal venous pressure.
Histologic Features
In alcoholic hepatitis, liver injury is characteristically most prominent in the centrilobular (perivenular) areas (zone 3 of Rappaport). Hepatocytes exhibit ballooning with necrosis. Focal accumulation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes, as shown in the image below, is noted in the areas of injury. Lymphocytes may also be present, especially in the portal tracts.
Ropy eosinophilic hyaline inclusions termed Mallory bodies may be observed in the perinuclear cytoplasm. With electron microscopy, Mallory bodies may be observed to be composed of fibril clumps that histochemically are identifiable as intermediate filaments. Mallory bodies are characteristic of alcoholic hepatitis, but they are not always present in this disease, and, occasionally, they can be observed in a variety of other disorders.
Macrovesicular steatosis, perivenular fibrosis, and frank cirrhosis commonly coexist with alcoholic hepatitis.
