简要总结

This study is a randomized single centre trail evaluating the difference in the efficacy of a combination of corticosteroids (tab Prednisolone 40 mg/day) and pentoxifylline (400 mg, thrice a day, per oral) versus corticosteroids alone for reducing short term (28 days) mortality in patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis. The primary outcome measures will be reduction in short term mortality, while the secondary outcome measures would be improvement in hepatic function.
