Humoral Immune Dysregulation Defines High-Risk Cirrhotic Ascites

Arielle L. Klepper, Matt S. Zinter, Tamara I. A. Roach…·Joseph L. DeRisi

The paper analyzes human ascites fluid to identify immune dysregulation features associated with poor outcomes in cirrhosis, finding that B cell dysfunction, not microbial translocation, defines high-risk cases.
