NCT02545309

Brief Summary

SSC-CIP is increasing in patients after critical illness. Pathogenesis is still largely unclear. The investigators hypothesize that genetic variants of biliary transporter genes are frequent in patients with SSC-CIP. In approximately 140 patients and controls the rate of genetic variants in biliary transporter genes, gut permeability and gut microbiome as well as bone health will be studied.
