Alcoholic hepatitis is an acute or acute-on-chronic inflammatory syndrome associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Traditionally, Maddrey discriminant function (DF) score and Child-Turcott-Pugh (CTP) score have been used for stratifying the prognosis of alcoholic hepatitis. Recently, the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score has been applied to alcoholic hepatitis and some investigators consider MELD score as a better prognostic indicator for severe alcoholic hepatitis. Therefore, this analysis was aimed to compare MELD score with DF and CTP scores for predicting the short-term mortality in Korean patients with alcoholic hepatitis.
