Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (#HCC ) is the most common primary liver tumor. Despite efforts to mitigate risk factors and implement surveillance programs in high-risk populations, such as screening, these strategies alone appear insufficient to significantly improve prognosis at diagnosis. The identification of novel prognostic factors remains an underdeveloped field that may play a key role… Continue reading Exploratory Comparison of Meld, Meld-Na, and Meld 3.0 Scores for Prognostic Assessment at Diagnosis in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Using Machine Learning Approaches

FIPS Score for Prediction of Survival After TIPS Placement: External Validation and Comparison With Traditional Risk Scores in a Cohort of Chinese Patients With Cirrhosis

aledopress

Various prognostic scores for patients with chronic liver disease have been applied for predicting survival after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement. In 2021, the Freiburg index of post-TIPS survival (FIPS) score was developed specifically for predicting survival after TIPS placement. The score has exhibited variable performance in initial investigations conducted in German and U.S.… Continue reading FIPS Score for Prediction of Survival After TIPS Placement: External Validation and Comparison With Traditional Risk Scores in a Cohort of Chinese Patients With Cirrhosis
