Summary

This study compared two types of albumin dialysis (MARS and SPAD) in 34 people with severe liver failure. Both treatments filter toxins from the blood when the liver cannot. The goal was to see which one removes bilirubin better and is easier to use. Results help doctors choose the best option for supporting patients while they wait for their liver to recover or for a transplant.
