Abstract: Assessing small intestinal mucosal injuries in patients with cirrhosis is crucial. Here, we measured intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP) levels, a useful marker of small intestinal mucosal injury, in patients with cirrhosis to determine their relationship with liver function and complications.
