LBP and End Stage Liver Disease: We hypothesized that plasma levels of markers of monocyte activation (sCD163 and sCD14), inflammation (IL-6 and Il-10, and microbial translocation (lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and LPS binding protein (LBP)) are associated with FIB-4 levels in patients with AUD without overt end-stage liver disease admitted to hospital for the treatment of the disorder.
