Core Tip
Core tip: This is a retrospective study to evaluate the value of soluble mannose receptor (sMR) level for predicting the 90-day mortality of patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF). Serum sMR level was significantly higher in patients with HBV-ACLF, and it was an independent risk factor associated with the prognosis of HBV-ACLF. Furthermore, sMR level significantly improved the performance of model for end-stage liver disease score for predicting the prognosis of HBV-ACLF patients.
