Core Tip |
The availability of non-invasive tools predicting the first decompensation event (DE) in Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD)-related compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD) context is still demanded. Red cell distribution width to platelet ratio (RPR) has been shown to predict fibrosis in MASLD. Herein, we demonstrate that: (1) RPR predicts the first DE in MASLD-cACLD; (2) RPR predicts acute decompensation as the first DE in these patients; and (3) Patients presenting baseline Clinically Significant Portal Hypertension and RPR > 0.472 show higher risk of 3-year decompensation occurrence. Overall, RPR predicts time and modalities of DE in MASLD-related-ACLD patients, presenting the potential to be a valuable, easy-to perform, non-invasive clinical index. |
