Longitudinal assessment of prognostic factors for patients with hepatorenal syndrome in a tertiary center

摘要

Introduction Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is one of the serious complications in patients with advanced cirrhosis and ascites. In tertiary centers, most patients were classified as having type 1 HRS for their rapid progressive diseases. However, no significant predictors have been assessed previously for patients with type 1 HRS. In addition to the initial model of end-stage liver disease (MELD) scores and biochemistry parameters, we want to further investigate the prognostic importance of changes in MELD scores and biochemistry parameters over time for patients with type 1 HRS.
