Validation of the LIU score using the INR. (A) Survival without LT stratified by quartiles developed on the previously defined training set. LIU = 3.507×peak total bilirubin (mg/dL) ×peak INR ×peak ammonia (umol/L). A low risk of death or LT (LIU score < 209) and a high risk of death or LT (LIU score ≥370) can be defined. (B) ROC curves for predicting death or LT at 4 weeks using the LIU score. A C index of greater than 85 is considered predictive. The C index was 86.3 (95% CI, 75.6–97.4).

Validation of the LIU score using PT. (A) Survival without LT stratified by quartiles developed on the previously defined training set. LIU = 3.584×peak total bilirubin (mg/dL) ×peak PT (s) ×peak ammonia (umol/L). A low risk of death or LT (LIU score < 152) and a high risk of death or LT (LIU score ≥228) can be defined. (B) ROC curve for predicting death or LT at 4 weeks using the LIU score. The C index was 80.6 (95% CI, 65.7–95.3).

Derivation of the aLIU score using the INR. (A) Survival without LT stratified by quartiles developed using the newly derived aLIU score. aLIU = 8.4 × admission bilirubin (mg/dL) × admission INR. A low risk of death or LT (aLIU < 310) and a high risk of death or LT (aLIU ≥ 310) can be defined based on admission values. (B) ROC curve for predicting death or LT at 4 weeks using the aLIU score. The C index was 83.7 (95% CI, 71.8–95.9).

Derivation of the aLIU score using PT. (A) Survival without LT stratified by quartiles developed using the newly derived aLIU score. aLIU = 6.9 × admission bilirubin (mg/dL) × admission PT. A low risk of death or LT (aLIU < 233) and a high risk of death or LT (aLIU ≥ 233) can be defined based on admission values. (B) ROC curve for predicting death or LT at 4 weeks using the aLIU score. The C index was 78.9 (95% CI, 64.3–93.6).
