Sarin, Nirupama Trehanpati

“…HEV infection reduces choline, phosphocholine, and palmitoyl carnitine, enhancing inflammation in ALF-E, while increasing taurocholic and taurochenodeoxycholic acids impairs the immune response. These factors together likely contribute to severe obstetric complications, including higher failed inductions, intrauterine death, and maternal and fetal mortality in ALF-E.…”
