The evaluation of inflammatory and immune composite markers for complications after deceased donor liver transplantation – a retrospective cohort study

Preoperative MLR and SII showed good predictive ability for postoperative complications graded as CD ≥ III but < IV, while CAR was predictive of CD ≥ IV complications and was associated with EAD and prolonged ICU stay. MLR was an independent risk factor for 90-day postoperative mortality. The nomogram of major outcomes requires further validation in multi-center studies.
