Abstract
Elevated cobalamin and Bili are respective biomarkers of hepatocellular dysfunction and cholestasis in patients having decompensated biventricular failure with systemic venous distention and TR without hepatocyte necrosis vis-Ã -vis left heart failure or in the absence of clinical failure. Elevated plasma BNP did not distinguish between the presence or absence of systemic venous congestion.
