Patterns of dendritic cell and monocyte subsets are associated with disease severity and mortality in liver cirrhosis patients
Abstract Liver cirrhosis is often complicated by an immunological imbalance known as cirrhosis-associated immune dysfunction. This study aimed to investigate disturbances in circulating monocytes and dendritic cells in patients with acute decompensation (AD) of cirrhosis. The sample included 39 adul...
