The definition and diagnostic criteria of acute-on chronic liver failure (ACLF) differed evidently between the East and the West due to the difference in the underlying etiology. Liver transplantation is the most effective treatment to reverse the progress of ACLF and improve the survival rate of patients. The purpose of this study is to explore the accuracy of the two diagnostic criteria of EASL-CLIF and APASL ACLF in assessing the survival rate of patients with liver cirrhosis after LT.
A retrospective collection and analysis of the preoperative conditions of patients with LT due to cirrhosis in a single center from January 2015 to June 2020 would be conducted, including epidemiological characteristics, etiology, clinical indicators, and short-term (28 days, 90 days) and long-term (1 year, 3 years) survival after LT.
