Hepatic recompensation according to Baveno <scp>VII</scp> criteria is linked to a significant survival benefit in decompensated alcohol‐related cirrhosis

Abstract

Alcohol abstinence led to recompensation in 18.1% of our cohort of HVPG-characterised patients with decompensated alcohol-related cirrhosis. Achieving hepatic recompensation resulted in a >90% risk reduction in liver-related mortality.
