Predictors of mortality and liver transplant requirement in patients with hepatitis A virus: A case series from Mexico
Advanced age, elevated severity, and higher albumin-bilirubin scores emerged as predictors of adverse outcomes in patients with HAV infection, and consideration of these factors could guide the need for more intensive monitoring strategies. These findings highlight the importance of incorporating prognostic scoring systems into routine clinical evaluation to improve outcomes in high-risk patients.
