Abstract

Aim of the study: To investigate the disease-specific score and improve the existing scores to better determine the prognosis of patients after liver transplantation (LT). For this purpose, we evaluated the relationship of prognostic scores with 30-day mortality after LT. In addition, we planned to investigate whether the mean platelet volume/platelet count (MPR) would contribute to score improvement.
