Table 2 Bilirubin and albumin deterioration thresholds based on Child–Pugh categorization (sensitivity analysis)
Parameter | Deterioration thresholds |
|---|---|
Serum total bilirubin at baseline | |
< 2 mg/dL | If ≥ 2 mg/dL or an increase of 100% |
≤ 2–≤ 3 mg/dL | If > 3 mg/dL |
> 3 mg/dL | If increased by ≥ 1 mg/dL |
Serum albumin level at baseline | |
> 3.5 g/dL | If ≤ 3.5 g/dL or a decrease of ≥ 0.3 g/dL |
≤ 2.8–≤ 3.5 g/dL | If < 2.8 g/dL |
< 2.8 g/dL | If decreased by ≥ 0.3 g/dL |
