Core Tip
Core Tip: The core finding of this article is that a newly developed Cox regression model (NDC) outperforms the existing scoring models, such as the Child-Pugh, model for end-stage liver disease (MELD), MELD-sodium and the Freiburg index of post-transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) survival, in predicting long-term survival after TIPS placement in patients with hepatitis cirrhosis. In the NDC model, considered factors such as indication for TIPS, shunt reasonability, indocyanine green retention rate at 15 min, post-portal venous pressure gradient, percentage decrease in portal venous pressure, and total bilirubin are considered. It provided a more accurate prediction of 6-year survival, allowing for the identification of high-risk patients who may need closer follow-up after the procedure.
