The impact of HBV flare on the outcome of HBV‐related decompensated cirrhosis patients with bacterial infection

Abstract

In HBV-related decompensated cirrhosis patients admitted with BI, HBV flare increased the risk of additional organ failures and ACLF, raising the risk of 90-day mortality by seven-fold. Optimization of HBV treatment in these patients should minimize the risk of HBV flare with improved outcomes.
