Assignment of steatotic livers by the Mayo model for end-stage liver disease [PDF]

Transplant International, 2005
Prognosis after liver transplantation depends on a combination of recipient and donor variables. The purpose of this study is to define an allocation system of steatotic donor livers relative to recipient model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score. We reviewed 500 consecutive OLT, computing the MELD score for each recipient.

Model for end-stage liver disease-sodium and survival benefit in liver transplantation [PDF]

Transplant International, 2012
There are currently no studies calculating the survival benefit of liver transplantation (LT) according to model for end-stage liver disease-sodium (MELD-Na) and based on the competing risk (CR) method. We enrolled consecutive adult patients with chronic end-stage liver disease entering the waiting list (WL) for primary LT (WL group = 337) and ...
