Immunopathogenesis of acute on chronic liver failure
Acute-on-chronic liver failure is a well-established description of a high-mortality syndrome of chronic liver disease (usually cirrhosis) with organ failure. While the exact definition is under refinement, the accepted understanding of this entity is in patients with chronic liver disease and various organs in failure and where systemic inflammation ...

Acute-on-chronic liver failure. [PDF]
Cirrhosis is the end stage of chronic liver disease. Cirrhosis causes portal hypertension, which, in turn, can lead to acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF), which is defined as acute decompensation combined with failure of the liver, coagulation system, kidneys, lungs, and/or circulatory system, or hepatic encephalopathy.This review is based on a ...

Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure [PDF]
Over the past 2 decades, the concept of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) has been proposed as an alternate path in the natural history of decompensated cirrhosis. ACLF thus is characterized by the presence of a precipitating event (identified or unidentified) in subjects with underlying chronic liver disease leading to rapid progression of liver ...

Acute-On-Chronic Liver Failure [PDF]
The Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) has been the single best predictor of outcome of the progression of cirrhosis. Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) has been proposed as an alternative path in the natural history of cirrhosis. ACLF occurs in patients with chronic liver disease and is characterized by a precipitating event, resulting in ...

Neutrophilia is more predictive than increased white blood cell counts for short-term mortality after liver transplantation in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure [PDF]
Background Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a life-threatening disease that requires urgent liver transplantation (LT). Accurate identification of high-risk patients is essential for predicting post-LT survival.
