Simonetto – 27 July 2021 – Alcohol‐associated hepatitis (AAH) is a severe form of liver injury with mortality as high as 30%‐40% at 90 days. As a result of altered immune function in AAH, bacterial infections are common and are associated with poor outcomes. However, determining the risk and subsequent development of infection in patients with AAH remain challenging.
