Vemanamanda et al. also found significant differences in prolactin levels across ascites severity categories, with median levels of 58.00 ng/mL for severe ascites, 52.00 ng/mL for moderate ascites, 43.50 ng/mL for mild ascites, and 27.00 ng/mL for patients without ascites (p < 0.001) [23]. This evidence concerns the gene PRL and Ascites.
