Current Status and Prospects of Spontaneous Peritonitis in Patients with Cirrhosis

Abstract: Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a common cirrhotic ascites complication which exacerbates the patient’s condition. SBP is caused by gram-negative bacilli and, to a lesser extent, gram-positive cocci. Hospital-acquired infections show higher levels of drug-resistant bacteria. Geographical location influences pathogenic bacteria distribution; therefore, different hospitals in the same country record different bacteria strains. Intestinal changes and a weak immune system in patients with liver … Show more

“…In cirrhosis and ascites patients, intestinal permeability is significantly elevated, leading to greater bacterial translocation and a higher risk for SBP. Using NLR as a prognostic/ diagnostic factor for patients in this state of hemodynamic derangement might be especially helpful since they are significantly more susceptible to infection [43]. e results indicate a difference in NLR SBP predictive value in retrospective (p � 0.028) compared to prospective studies (p � 0.965) in hospitalized cirrhotic patients.…”

“…The quality of all the studies was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) prevalence data appraisal checklist (supplementary file K3) [15] the appraisal set nine (9) parameters that any standard research should meet. A scoring coding system of "zero (0) for NO" and "One (1) for YES" were assigned.…”

“…There are two aetiological primary evolutionary sources of cirrhosis, alcoholic liver cirrhosis and non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis [4] Cirrhosis of the liver has been firmly associated with HBV, and HVC or a coinfection of both (HBV+HCV) [8] [9]. The Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C viruses are the most common cause of viral hepatitis, they are the major non-alcoholic cause of liver cirrhosis.…”

“…Multiple factors such as gastrointestinal stasis, intestinal bacterial overgrowth, delayed intestinal transport, altered intestinal permeability and immune dysfunction, are involved in the pathogenesis of SBP. 34 Among these 3194 factors, bacterial translocation and infection represent the major cause of SBP occurrence. 35 It is widely appreciated that intestinal bacterial infection can elicit pyroptosis and mediate necroinflammation.…”
