Non-invasive liver fibrosis scores and mortality in a cohort of World Trade Center rescue/recovery workers
Intermediate and high liver fibrosis scores predicted all-cause, liver disease-related and non-liver disease-related mortality, and high scores predicted liver cancer, in this population. Liver fibrosis scores may identify those at greater risk for poor health outcomes, even in a healthy occupational cohort.
