Plasma S100A8 and S100A9 Are Strong Prognostic Factors for Hepatitis B Virus-Related Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure
CONCLUSIONS: S100A8 and S100A9 are promising biomarkers for the analysis of risk stratification and prognosis in ACLF patients. In addition, combining them with the CLIF-C OFs may better predict the prognosis of ACLF.PMID:37469934 | PMC:PMC10352535 | DOI:10.1155/2023/6164611 (Source: Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology)
