PURPOSE: The present study aimed to investigate the role of @entity99 ( @entity99 ) for prediction of long-term mortality in @entity1 with decompensated @entity82 . MATERIALS AND METHODS: Clinical data from 97 non-critically-ill cirrhotic @entity1 with @entity99 measurements were retrospectively and consecutively collected between 2009 and 2012. @entity1 were classified according to clinical stages and presence of @entity843 . The prognostic accuracy of @entity99 for @entity204 , survival curves, and hazard ratios were analyzed. RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 24 (interquartile range, 13-36) months, 22 @entity1 (22.7%) died. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curves of @entity99 for predicting 1-year, 2-year, and overall mortality were 0.801, 0.737, and 0.687, respectively (all p<0.01). The best cut-off value of @entity99 for predicting long-term overall mortality in all @entity1 was 17 mm Hg. The mortality rates at 1 and 2 years were 8.9% and 19.2%, respectively: 1.9% and 11.9% with @entity99  <=17 mm Hg and 16.2% and 29.4% with @entity99 >17 mm Hg, respectively (p=0.015). In the @entity843 group, the mortality rates at 1 and 2 years were 3.9% and 17.6% with @entity99  <=17 mm Hg and 17.5% and 35.2% with @entity99 >17 mm Hg, respectively (p=0.044). Regarding the risk factors for mortality, both @entity99 and model for @entity3851 were positively related with long-term mortality in all @entity1 . Particularly, for the @entity1 with @entity843 , both prothrombin time and @entity99 were independent risk factors for predicting poor outcomes. CONCLUSION: @entity99 is useful for predicting the long-term mortality in @entity1 with decompensated @entity82 , especially in the presence of @entity843 .
