Core Tip	This study found that ascites combined with hyponatremia is a high-risk condition in patients with cirrhosis, which is characterized by older patients, an increased proportion of males, and prolonged hospitalization. Hyponatremia is more pronounced in this setting, with an increase in hepatic encephalopathy, renal impairment, and infection. Diuretics and salt supplements are preferred in treatment options. The poor prognosis of patients with ascites and hyponatremia prompts more attention to this patient in clinical practice and the adoption of timely and effective treatment measures, especially risk management for elderly and male patients.
