Cirrhosisis the final pathway of any chronic liver disease and can lead to a number of complications,including hepatocellular carcinoma. Liver fibrosis is the key role of disease progression in cirrhosis. Advanced liver fibrosis and early stage of cirrhosis are not usually clinically detectable or symptomatic.As patients develop more extensive hepatic fibrosis potentially resulting in development of cirrhoticcomplications such as variceal hemorrhage. Prognosis and survival is markedly better in patients with early stage of cirrhosis. Now there are many stages classification of cirrhosis defined by liverhistology, hepatic venous pressure gradient and clinical staging selected by complications. The knowledgeand understanding of the natural history of liver fibrosis can help for staging and early detection ofthe cirrhosis. Remove noxious stimuli, hepato-protectants and decrease hepatic inflammationand cell death are the main treatment modalities for hepatic fibrosis.   Figure 1 ระยะโรคตับแข็งแบ่งตามลักษณะการดำเนินโรค (modified from Arvaniti V’s work) (12)*decompensated events เช่น ท้องมาน spontaneous bacterial peritonitisvariceal bleeding หรือโรคสมองเหตุจากโรคตับ; LT, liver transplantation   Keywords: cirrhosis, liver fibrosis, liver histology, hepatic venous pressure gradient

Rearfoot strike (RFS) in children running produces impact forces that give rise to a transient stress wave traveling through the body. It could contribute to the development of injuries. The purpose of this study was to determine RFS prevalence during childhood while running at a self-selected velocity in a prospective longitudinal cohort study. A total of 175 children (68 girls), aged 6 to 14 years, participated in this study. The sample was divided into three age groups (age in 2016): 6-8 years, 9-11 years, and 12-14 years which were analysed three years later (2019). 2D video-based was used to record the RFS Taking into account all samples, in the jogging trial the prevalence of RFS (an average of both feet) was 86.9% in 2016 and 94.7% three years later; in the running trial the prevalence was 82.6 and 94.4%, respectively. In all samples a significant increase of RFS prevalence was found in both the jogging and running trials for both feet over three years (jogging, left foot, p=.011, right foot, p=.023; running, left foot, p=.001, right foot, p<.001). In girls, there were no significant differences in any conditions. In boys, a significant increase of RFS prevalence was found after three years in both feet (p<.01) in the running trial. This study shows that RFS prevalence in children increases with age and the results may be used to characterize typical running development in children population.
