Role of hepatitis C virus infection in German patients with fulminant and subacute hepatic failure.

abstract：BACKGROUND:We recently reported high high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol as a predictor of recurrent risk in a subgroup of postinfarction patients defined by hypercholesterolemia and high C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. We investigated whether a similar high-risk subgroup might exist for incident cardiovascular...
