Plasma Amino Acid Concentrations Predict Mortality in Patients with End-Stage Liver Disease
BACKGROUND: The liver plays a key role in amino acid metabolism. In former studies, a ratio between branched-chain and aromatic amino acids (Fischer’s ratio) revealed associations with hepatic encephalopathy. Furthermore, low concentrations of branched-chain amino acids were linked to sarcopenia in...
