Ascites complications risk factors of decompensated cirrhosis patients: logistic regression and prediction model

Varicose veins, variceal bleeding, and serum sodium levels are significant factors contributing to ascites development in cirrhosis. Furthermore, decreased serum albumin and elevated creatinine levels are important indicators of poor prognosis. Nomograms can improve clinicians' informed decision-making for patients with decompensated cirrhosis, ultimately reducing ascites risk.
