Brief summary
In this study, treatment-naïve HBV-related cirrhosis patients were retrospectively enrolled at the first episode of decompensation (ascites or variceal hemorrhage). Patients were followed up every 6 months until death /liver transplantation or for 5 years. Clinical data from medical records about past history, first decompensated events, second /further decompensated events, HCC, and death/ liver transplantation were retrospectively collected. In this retrospective study, the incidence of re-compensation and its clinical characteristics were mainly explored.
Detailed description
In this study, treatment-naïve HBV-related cirrhosis patients were retrospectively enrolled at the first episode of decompensation (ascites or variceal hemorrhage). Patients were followed up every 6 months until death /liver transplantation or for 5 years. WBC, RBC, HGB, PLT, CRP, PT, PTA, INR, ALT, AST, TB, DB, ALB, GLO, ALP, GGT, CHE, BUN, Cr, Na, GLU, CHOL, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, AFP, HBsAg, HBV-DNA, LSM, BUS, MRI/CT and gastroscope from medical records about past history, first decompensated events, second /further decompensated events, HCC, and death/ liver transplantation were retrospectively collected. This retrospective study aimed to explore the incidence of re-compensation and its clinical characteristics.

Any complication of severe heart, lung, kidney, brain, blood diseases or other severe systematic diseases; 5. Pregnant women.
