Altered immune parameters in chronic alcoholic patients at the onset of infection and of septic shock
Chronic alcoholic patients have a threefold to fourfold increased risk for developing a severe infection or septic shock after surgery, which might be due to altered immune response. The aim of this outcome ma...
