Etiology-neutral liver and hepatic-microarchitecture orientation for hepatitis. The circular model is not literal lobule histology and does not establish viral, alcohol, toxin, autoimmune, chronicity, severity, or diagnostic status.

Hepatitis (liver Metal-Driven Inflammation) encompasses viral (HBV, HCV, HAV), autoimmune, alcoholic, and toxin-induced forms. In the WikiBiome framework, the gut-liver axis is central—portal blood delivers gut-derived microbial products (LPS, bacterial DNA) directly to the liver via the portal vein, making hepatic inflammation inseparable from Gut Microbiome status.

Virome: Altered gut virome (bacteriophage communities) in liver disease.
Metal hepatotoxicity: cadmium, arsenic, lead cause direct hepatocyte damage, compounding viral hepatitis.
Autoimmune hepatitis: May share molecular mimicry mechanisms with other autoimmune conditions.
Male fertility: HBV/HCV affect seminal microbiome and spermatogenesis.
