Introduction: Acute gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is a major cause of death in liver cirrhosis. This multicenter study aims to develop and validate a novel and easy-to-access model for predicting the prognosis of patients with cirrhosis and acute GIB.
Methods: Patients with cirrhosis and acute GIB were enrolled and randomly divided into the training (n = 865) and validation (n = 817) cohorts. In the training cohort, the independent predictors for in-hospital death were identified by logistic regression analyses, and then a new prognostic model (i.e., CAGIB score) was established. Area under curve (AUC) of CAGIB score was calculated by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis and compared with Child-Pugh, model for end-stage liver disease (MELD), MELD-Na, and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) scores.
Results: In the training cohort, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), diabetes, total bilirubin (TBIL), albumin (ALB), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and serum creatinine (Scr) were independent predictors of in-hospital death. CAGIB score = diabetes (yes = 1, no = 0) × 1.040 + HCC (yes = 1, no = 0) × 0.974 + TBIL (μmol/L) × 0.005 - ALB (g/L) × 0.091 + ALT (U/L) × 0.001 + Scr (μmol/L) × 0.012 - 3.964. In the training cohort, the AUC of CAGIB score for predicting in-hospital death was 0.829 (95% CI 0.801-0.854, P < 0.0001), which was higher than that of Child-Pugh (0.762, 95% CI 0.732-0.791), MELD (0.778, 95% CI 0.748-0.806), MELD-Na (0.765, 95% CI 0.735-0.793), and NLR (0.587, 95% CI 0.553-0.620) scores. In the validation cohort, the AUC of CAGIB score (0.714, 95% CI 0.682-0.746, P = 0.0006) remained higher than that of Child-Pugh (0.693, 95% CI 0.659-0.725), MELD (0.662, 95% CI 0.627-0.695), MELD-Na (0.660, 95% CI 0.626-0.694), and NLR (0.538, 95% CI 0.503-0.574) scores.
Conclusion: CAGIB score has a good predictive performance for prognosis of patients with cirrhosis and acute GIB.

Introduction And Objectives: Cirrhotic patients with acute variceal hemorrhage (AVH) have high short-term mortality. Established prognostic scores are seldom applicable clinically, partially because they need external validation or contain subjective variables. We aimed to develop and validate a practical prognostic nomogram based on objective predictors to predict prognosis for cirrhotic patients with AVH.

Liver cirrhosis is caused by the development of various acute and chronic liver diseases. Esophageal varices is a common and serious complication of liver cirrhosis during decompensation. Despite the development of various treatments, the prognosis for liver cirrhosis with esophageal varices (LCEV) remains poor.
