What this Trial Is About

This research aims to explore the current situation of end-stage liver disease in China and improve the diagnosis and treatment of liver cirrhosis and its complications. It focuses on liver cirrhosis caused by various conditions such as hepatitis, alcohol use, non-alcoholic causes, and schistosomiasis. The study also covers late-stage liver disease marked by severe liver function impairment, including chronic and acute liver failure, acute decompensation of cirrhosis, chronic liver failure, and advanced liver cancer. Understanding the epidemiology and treatment of these conditions is important due to their serious complications and high mortality rates. The study is a single-center, prospective, observational real-world investigation without any intervention treatments. It examines the current diagnosis and treatment practices for cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease in China, aiming to gather data on treatment efficacy, safety, and economic benefits. The goal is to identify optimized treatment options that may improve patient outcomes and reduce mortality. Participants will be observed over a three-year period with regular follow-ups to monitor survival and major health events. Researchers will collect clinical data to analyze outcomes such as patient death and significant complications during the follow-up. The study will provide valuable evidence to guide future management and treatment of cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease in China.
