ABSTRACT Advanced chronic liver disease (ACLD) remains a major cause of global morbidity and mortality. Preventing hepatic decompensation—both the first event and subsequent recurrences—has become a central therapeutic goal to prolong survival. The transition from the compensated phase (cACLD) to the decompensated phase (dACLD) is driven by clinically ...
