Molecular Ellipticity of Circulating Albumin-Bilirubin Complex Associates With Mortality in Patients With Severe Alcoholic Hepatitis

In a cross-sectional study of patients with SAH, we associated ME of the albumin-bilirubin complex, measured by CD spectroscopy, with outcomes of patients with SAH. Increased loading of bilirubin on albumin could explain reduced albumin function. Bilirubin removal by albumin dialysis might benefit patients with SAH.
