Improving survival of acute-on-chronic liver failure patients complicated with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis

Abstract The mortality of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients complicated with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) was extremely high. We aimed to explore prognostic value of the Chronic Liver Failure-Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (CLIF-SOFA) lung score and to establish an optima...
