Liver Injury and Endotoxemia in Male and Female Alcohol‐Dependent Individuals Admitted to an Alcohol Treatment Program
Abstract
Interactions between the liver, the gut, and the immune system are critical components of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). The aim of this study was to explore the associations between alcohol‐induced liver injury, endotoxemia, and inflammation at admission and over time during abstinence, as well as to examine the sex‐related differences in these parameters in alcohol‐dependent individuals admitted to an alcohol treatment program.
