Core Tip
Core Tip: Cirrhosis involves destroying hepatic cells, leading to metabolic changes that disrupt the body’s homeostasis. These alterations adversely affect the patient’s clinical condition and prognosis. Identifying a parameter that can predict significant events is crucial for a more precise approach, reducing mortality and enhancing the quality of life. This study reinforces the predictive value of Child–Turcotte–Pugh for predicting the clinical status of those with chronic liver disease.
