The role of TAM receptors in immuneparesis in tissue compartments in liver failure syndromes
2020-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Background: Decompensated liver cirrhosis and acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) – liver failure syndromes - are associated with increased incidence of bacterial infection, often spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP), and a subsequent higher mortality.
