Immune reactivity against native or oxidised cardiolipin (CL) of sera from 36 patients with alcoholic cirrhosis with or without alcoholic hepatitis (ALD) and from 42 healthy control subjects. IgG binding to ELISA plates coated with CL allowed to auto-oxidise in air or oxidation protected CL was evaluated, as reported in the patients and methods section. The horizontal bars represent median values in each group. Values in each group were normally distributed, as evaluated by the Komolgorov-Smirnov test.
