Average life years lost from Liver conditions: 23.3 for chronic liver disease/cirrhosis in North Carolina1.
Deaths from Liver conditions: 26,050 deaths in the USA 1987 for "chronic liver disease and cirrhosis" (Digestive diseases in the United States: Epidemiology and Impact – NIH Publication No. 94-1447, NIDDK, 1994)
Estimated mortality rate for Liver conditions from prevalence and deaths statistics:
- Deaths: 26,050 (USA annual deaths calculated from this data: 26,050 deaths in the USA 1987 for "chronic liver disease and cirrhosis" (Digestive diseases in the United States: Epidemiology and Impact – NIH Publication No. 94-1447, NIDDK, 1994))
- Incidence: 400,000 (USA prevalence calculated from this data: 400,000 people in the USA 1976-80 for "chronic liver disease and cirrhosis" (Digestive diseases in the United States: Epidemiology and Impact – NIH Publication No. 94-1447, NIDDK, 1994)
- 6.5% (ratio of deaths to prevalence).

About prognosis:
The 'prognosis' of Liver conditions usually refers to the likely outcome of Liver conditions. The prognosis of Liver conditions may include the duration of Liver conditions, chances of complications of Liver conditions, probable outcomes, prospects for recovery, recovery period for Liver conditions, survival rates, death rates, and other outcome possibilities in the overall prognosis of Liver conditions. Naturally, such forecast issues are by their nature unpredictable.
