Diagnostic value of ascitic fluid homocysteine and calprotectin in cirrhotic patients with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis [PDF]
, 2022 Background and study aim: Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is mainly diagnosed by ascitic polymorphonuclear (PMNL) leukocyte greater than 250/mm3. We intended to assess ascitic homocysteine and calprotectin for SBP diagnosis.Materials and methods:

Ascitic Bile Acids in Patients with Liver Cirrhosis [PDF]
, 1985 Ascitic bile acids of 8 patients with liver cirrhosis were analyzed in order to elucidate the clinical significance. The results were as follows. 1) Ascitic bile acid concentrations in intractable ascites were high, although low in tractable ascites. 2)

Detecting Underdiagnosed Medical Conditions with Deep Learning-Based Opportunistic CT Imaging [PDF]
arXivAbdominal computed tomography (CT) scans are frequently performed in clinical settings. Opportunistic CT involves repurposing routine CT images to extract diagnostic information and is an emerging tool for detecting underdiagnosed conditions such as sarcopenia, hepatic steatosis, and ascites.

Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis
The Saudi Journal of Gastroenterology, 1995 Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is an infection of the ascitic fluid without obvious intra-abdominal source of sepsis; usually complicates advanced liver disease.
