Core Tip	Several factors, particularly the severity of disease, development of ascites, need for paracentesis and history of hospitalization for any cause, are factors that worsen the health-related quality of life (HRQL) of patients with cirrhosis. Noteworthy malnutrition is a very important factor which impacts negatively on HRQL of patients suffering cirrhosis; clinicians must recognize it promptly and search for strategies to avoid this preventable comorbidity.
