BACKGROUND The gut microbiome is associated with hepatic encephalopathy(HE),but research results on the gut microbiome characteristics of patients with liver cirrhosis with and without HE are inconsistent.AIM To study...
BACKGROUND Cirrhotic patients face heightened energy demands,leading to rapid glycogen depletion,protein degradation,oxidative stress,and inflammation,which drive disease progression and complications.These disruption...
BACKGROUND Necrotizing fasciitis(NF)is a potentially fatal bacterial infection of the soft tissues.Liver cirrhosis appears to be a contributing factor to higher morbidity and mor-tality in patients with NF.This resear...
