Published in 2022 at "Hepatology"

DOI: 10.1002/hep.32571

Abstract: Gut microbiota, including bacteria and phages, are altered in cirrhosis, but their role during infections and spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) prophylaxis is unclear. Our aim was determine metagenomic changes in gut bacteria; phages and their… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis"

DOI: 10.1002/jcla.23247

Abstract: Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is one of the most critical complications of decompensated liver cirrhosis. This study aimed to assess whether ascitic neutrophil gelatinase‐associated lipocalin (NGAL), a reliable inflammation biomarker, can be used to detect… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "International immunopharmacology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2022.108729

Abstract: Interleukin (IL) -35 induces immunotolerance by suppression of CD8+ T cells during chronic infections and cancers. In the present study, we amined to investigate the role of IL-35-mediated regulation of CD8+ T cells in patients… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Journal of clinical and experimental hepatology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jceh.2017.05.007

Abstract: Background Patients with cirrhosis who develop Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis (SBP) suffer from cirrhotic cardiomyopathy which is characterized by impaired contractility in response to stress despite a relatively normal resting cardiac output. We hypothesized that electrocardiographic… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of clinical and experimental hepatology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jceh.2021.05.002

Abstract: Background Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a bacterial infection associated with a high mortality rate in cirrhotic patients. The gold standard for the detection of SBP is a manual cell count from ascitic fluid; however,… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Cellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jcmgh.2020.01.003

Abstract: Background & Aims Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are depleted from blood in patients with advanced liver disease and show features of immune dysfunction. Because circulating MAIT cells differ from organ-resident MAIT cells, we aimed… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology"

DOI: 10.1080/00365521.2019.1697896

Abstract: In this study, we examined pathogens and resistance in a large Danish cohort of patients with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP). Recent international studies report of a shift towards more Gram-positive bacteria in SBP and a… read more here.
