Correlations of three scoring systems with the prognosis of patients with liver cirrhosis complicated with sepsis syndrome

Figure 1 Comparison of model for end-stage liver disease, sequential organ failure assessment and modified early warning scores. A: Comparison of model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) scores between liver cirrhosis (LC) + sepsis syndrome (SS) group and LC group; B: Comparison of sequential organ failure assessment scores between LC + SS group and LC group; C: Comparison of modified early warning scores between LC + SS group and LC group. ^aP < 0.05; MELD: End-stage liver disease; SOFA: Sequential organ failure assessment; MEWS: Modified early warning score; LC: Liver cirrhosis; SS: Sepsis syndrome.

Figure 2 Impacts of model for end-stage liver disease, sequential organ failure assessment and modified early warning scores on predicting sepsis syndrome in liver cirrhosis patients. A: Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) for predicting sepsis syndrome (SS) in liver cirrhosis (LC) patients; B: ROC curve of sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) for predicting SS in LC patients; C: ROC curve of modified early warning score (MEWS) for predicting SS in LC patients; D: ROC curve of MELD, SOFA and MEWS combined for predicting SS in LC patients. AUC: Area under curve; LC: Liver cirrhosis; SS: Sepsis syndrome.

Figure 3 Evaluation effect of model for end-stage liver disease, sequential organ failure assessment and modified early warning scores on prognosis. A: Comparison of model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) scores between dead patients and surviving patient; B: Comparison of sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores between dead patients and surviving patient; C: Comparison of modified early warning score (MEWS) between dead patients and surviving patient; D: Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of MELD in predicting the death of liver cirrhosis (LC) patients with sepsis syndrome (SS); E: ROC curve of SOFA in predicting the death of LC patients with SS; F: ROC curve of MEWS in predicting the death of LC patients with SS; G: ROC curve of MELD, SOFA and MEWS combined in predicting the death of LC patients with SS. ^aP < 0.05; MELD: End-stage liver disease; SOFA: Sequential organ failure assessment; MEWS: Modified early warning score; LC: Liver cirrhosis; SS: Sepsis syndrome.
