Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo investigate the predictive factors and the best prognostic parameter of hepatorenal syndrome (HRS).
METHODS71 patients with cirrhosis who underwent HRS were included for multivariate Cox regression analysis. 35 possible predictive factors that included clinical and biochemical features contributing to the survival of these patients were analyzed.
RESULTSOnly Child-Pugh's score at the time of diagnosis was the only dependent risk factor of HRS, RR=1.333, 95% CI (1.026, 1.731).
CONCLUSIONChild-Pugh's score at the time of diagnosis of HRS is the best parameter for predicting the clinical outcome of HRS.
