Lysis and image) were treated as hepatorenal syndrome with terlipressin (0.5? mg iv every 4? hrs) plus albumin for at least 3 days. Others were treated as intrinsic azotemia as described above [4].Statistical analysisDescriptive statistics were expressed as mean and standard deviation values unless otherwise stated. In the primary analysis, we compared the number of hospital survivors with the number of nonsurvivors. Normal distribution of all the variables was analyzed using the Kolmogorov mirnov test. Student’s t-test was used to compare the mean values of continuous variables and normally distributed data; in the case of the other data, the Mann hitney U test 12926553 was used. Categorical data were analyzed using the x2 test. The chi-square test for trends were used to assess categorical data associated with MBRS scores. Correlation of paired-group variables were assessed using linear regression and Madrasin site Pearson analysis. We assessed the risk factors for in-hospital mortality by using univariate analysis, and the variables that were found to be statistically significant (p,0.05) in the univariate analysis were included in the multivariate analysis.
