| Abstract | Liver disorders occurring during pregnancy may be specifically pregnancy-related, or may be due to an intercurrent or chronic liver disease, which may present in anyone, pregnant or not. This review focuses on the liver diseases unique to pregnancy. Hyperemesis gravidarum, which occurs during early pregnancy, may be associated with liver dysfunction. Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy typically occurs during the second or third trimester. Pruritus and the associated biological signs of cholestasis improve rapidly after delivery. Mutations in gene encoding biliary transporters, especially ABCB4 encoding the multidrug resistance 3 protein, have been found to be associated with this complex disease. Ursodeoxycholic acid is currently the most effective medical treatment in improving pruritus and liver tests. Pre-eclampsia, which presents in late pregnancy frequently involves the liver, and HELLP syndrome (Hemolysis-Elevated Liver enzymes-Low Platelets) is a life-threatening complication. Prognosis of acute fatty liver of pregnancy has been radically transformed by early delivery, and clinicians must have a high index of suspicion for this condition when a woman presents nausea or vomiting, epigastric pain, jaundice, or polyuria-polydipsia during the third trimester. Acute fatty liver of pregnancy has been found to be associated with a defect of long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase in the fetus, and mothers and their offspring should undergo DNA testing at least for the main associated genetic mutation (c.1528G>C). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
