The liver The liver is your largest internal organ. However, it must be mentioned that at the time of admission, there was a group of patients with an ABIC score less than 6. Survival analysis was carried out using the actuarial and Kaplan-Meier methods, and the survival curves were compared using the Log Rank test.
In our cohort, the MELD score was slightly better than the ABIC with respect to its predictive ability, probably because the calculation of both indices is based on the INR, creatinine and bilirubin, while the ABIC also includes the factor age, which in our series was not a prognostic factor. Only MELD score and urea values at 7 days were independent predictors of survival twelve months after the acute hepatitis episode.
The median hospital admission was 25 days days.
