Rationale: Predictive biomarkers can be effective in the identification of the oral leukoplakia with an increased probability of malignant transformation.
Patients Concerns: A 63-year-old patient presents with persistent burning sensations throughout the oral cavity, accompanied by a white lesion on the tongue. Additionally, a 57-year-old patient with multiple white lesions in the oral cavity.
Aim: To assess and compare the feasibility and prognostic value of various frailty assessment tools among decompensated cirrhosis inpatients.
Methods: Our prospective observational registry included consecutive patients admitted for cirrhosis between June 2017 and July 2018. Exclusion criteria were intensive-care unit admission, hepatocellular carcinoma outside of the Milan criteria, and other malignancies.
