Figure 1 Inpatient mortality from 2002 to 2010 for cirrhotic patients, NC patients, and NC patients with CHF. NC and NC-CHF patients were matched 1:1 with cirrhotic patients on age, sex, and year of discharge. The decrease in mortality for patients with cirrhosis was significantly more than that in the NC and NC-CHF cohorts.
