Introduction Alcoholic hepatitis (AH) continues to be a frequent cause of alcohol related mortality. The Glasgow Alcoholic Hepatitis Score (GAHS) has not only been proposed as an accurate measure of prognosis, but also as a guide to therapeutic intervention. However these studies have been ...

A score of 9 or more identify patients most at risk of death. A score of 9 or more can be used either on day 1 (admission day) or day 6-9. Patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis mDF > 32 (modified discriminant function) or more specifically GAHS>9 benefit from corticosteroids, and ...

The MELD score was found a more valuable model than CTP or the Maddrey score in the detection of high risk patients admitted with alcoholic hepatitis[43]. Alternatively, the more recent Glasgow alcoholic hepatitis score could be used[44]. A Glasgow score exceeding 9 points is associated with ...
Analysis of factors predictive of mortality in alcoholic hepatitis and derivation and validation of the Glasgow alcoholic hepatitis score Introduction: Alcoholic hepatitis is associated with a high short term mortality. We aimed to identify those factors associated with mortally and define a ... Forrest...
The scoring systems used to assess the severity of AH [Maddrey Discriminant Function (mDF), Child–Pugh Score (CPS) and Glasgow Alcoholic Hepatitis Score (GAHS)] have shown to be useful in determining severity and predicting mortality in these patients.AimThe aim of this study was to compare ...
SummaryBackgroundSeveral prognostic models have emerged in alcoholic hepatitis (AH), but lack of external validation precludes their universal use.AimTo validate the Maddrey Discriminant Function (DF); Glasgow Alcoholic Hepatitis Score (GAHS); Mayo End-stage Liver Disease (MELD); Age, Bilirubin, INR...
Prognostic scores include the Maddrey's discriminant function, the model of end-stage liver disease, and the Glasgow Alcoholic Hepatitis Score. Pathophysiology involves hepatic fat storage, increased hepatic uptake of gut-derived endotoxins triggering Kupffer cell activation and release of proinflammatory ...
