Structural changes of human serum albumin (HSA) induced by oral branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) supplementation in cirrhotic patients (n = 29). Alteration of the amount of total HSA (a), oxidized albumin to total albumin ratio (b), amount of oxidized HSA (c), and amount of reduced HSA (d) induced by oral BCAA supplementation. Values are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation. P < 0.05 was considered to indicate a statistically significant difference. *P < 0.05, analysis of variance. M month(s), pre pretreatment
