Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1.Age: 18 to 75 years old, both males and females are eligible; 2. Patients with hepatic failure (severe): meet either criterion (1) or (2). (1) ACLF: develops within 4 weeks on top of chronic liver disease with total serum bilirubin >= 5 mg/dL (85 µmol/L) and coagulation dysfunction (INR >= 1.5); (2) SACLF: develops within 4-24 weeks on top of chronic liver diseases with total serum bilirubin > 5 mg/dL (85µmol/L) and impaired coagulation (INR >=1.5); 3. Patients with decompensated cirrhosis (moderate): meet criterion (1) or (2), with criterion (3) being mandatory; (1) Imaging (abdominal ultrasound/CT/MRI) shows cirrhosis. (2) Fibroscan (F >= 12.4 kPa) or a liver histological fibrosis score of F4 (Ishak scoring system) or higher; (3) Development of complications related to decompensation: ascites/esophageal/gastric varices rupture/hepatic encephalopathy. 4. Patients with compensated cirrhosis (mild): meet criterion (1) or criterion (2), with the addition of criterion (3).
