摘要

Aim: Increased oxidative stress is important in the pathogenesis of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). This study aimed to investigate whether advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) levels can monitor oxidative stress of ACLF patients. Furthermore, we aimed to study plasma exchange (PE) treatment and determine whether it can eliminate AOPP.
