| Title: | Predicting Long-term Survival After Liver Transplantation in Patients With NASH Cirrhosis. |
| Abstract: | Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) cirrhosis is the second most common indication for liver transplantation (LT) in the United States.1 Patients are increasingly older at presentation, with higher rates of metabolic syndrome, obesity, hyperlipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and renal failure.2 They are also at higher risk of cardiovascular events and mortality while on the waiting list1 and in the post-transplant period.3,4 We sought to identify predictors of long-term benefit based on 5-year survival post-LT in NASH cirrhosis, thereby delineating those patients that derive a clear benefit from LT versus those in whom LT may be futile. |
