In SIRS/sepsis patients with liver cirrhosis, plasma LBP positively correlated with alanine aminotransferase (r = 0.442, p = 0.010), aspartate aminotransferase (r = 0.520, p = 0.002), and gamma-glutamyltransferase (r = 0.527, p = 0.003). Here, GPT is linked to systemic inflammatory response syndrome.
