Breath ammonia measurement in Helicobacter pylori infection.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Fulminant hepatic failure (FHF) is a devastating syndrome, which sometimes results in death or liver transplantation, in which inflammation would aggravate the development of fetuin-A which would act as an anti-inflammatory factor and may be an available approach to attenuate FHF. AIMS:The purpose of this s...
