Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is an extremely clinical entity associated with short-term high mortality. The CLIF-SOFA score measures both hepatic and extrahepatic organ dysfunction and can discriminate significantly better between survivors and nonsurvivors compared to other methods. The MELD score is widely used for organ allocation in liver transplantation. Recent reports indicate that the PWR is a potential biomarker for predicting clinical outcomes. The ALBI score is a new score model for evaluating the severity of liver dysfunction. We aimed to compare these prognosis models to predict short-term mortality in ACLF patients.
