To compare the predictive value of various preoperative objective nutritional indicators for determining 30-d mortality and complications following liver transplantation (LT).
A retrospective analysis was conducted on 162 recipients who underwent LT at our institution from December 2019 to June 2022.
This study identified several independent risk factors associated with 30-d mor
The NRI has good predictive value for 30-d mortality and severe complications following LT. The NRI could be an effective tool for transplant surgeons to evaluate perioperative nutritional risk and develop relevant nutritional therapy.
Core Tip: The preoperative nutritional status of liver transplant patients is closely related to prognosis. In this study, we analyzed clinical data from 162 patients to compare the value of different objective nutritional indices in predicting 30-d mortality and complications following liver transplantation. This provides insights for the preoperative assessment of liver transplant prognosis.
