The LIRER score is a predictor of first-year, two-years and overall-mortality in decompensated cirrhosis, particularly in patients with MELD < 18. LIRER is therefore an important tool to predict medium-long-term outcomes in this population. Besides, it allows predicting the 30-days readmission probability in overall patients, independently of MELD.
