Core Tip	This is the first study to highlight the lack of nutritional assessment of hospitalised patients with cirrhosis. Despite the well-established prognostic value of nutrition, our study showed that almost half of hospitalized patients with cirrhosis did not have a formal nutritional assessment. The prevalence of malnutrition in this group of patients was high (56%) and in-hospital dietary intake was substantially reduced, even in patients with normal subjective global assessment. We also confirmed that malnutrition was an independent predictor of both short-term and long-term mortality.
