M ethods A total of 337 cirrhosis patients were included in the study. The hosp ital records were analyzed retrospectively, and all patients were followed up by phone call ormail. The associated clinical and laboratory variables were studied by univariate and multivariate statistical analysis. Results The survival rates at 32months, 62months, 12year, 32years and 52years after hosp italization were 89. 0%, 87. 8%, 82. 2%, 77. 4% 59. 1% and 46. 9%. Univariate analysis shows that the factors associated with mortality during hosp italization were serum total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, album in, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, hemoglobin, p rothrombin time, INR for p rothrombin time and encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, ascites, and upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Univariate analysis showed that the factors associated with mortality 52years after enrollment were serum total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, album in, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, hemoglobin, p rothrombin time, INR for p rothrombin time, cholesterol, low density lipop rotein, serum sodium and encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, ascites and age. Multivariate analysis showed that serum album in, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, total bilirubin, p rothrombin time, low density lipop rotein, ascites and age were independently related to 52year mortality. ConclusionFor cirrhotic patients, a number of clinical factors were significantly correlated with mortality in hosp ital or 5 years after enrollment. function is the main factor for p rognosis. KEY WO RD S liver cirrhosis; p rognosis; mortality; p rognostic factors A scites and age were also significantly related to 52year mortality.
