About 2 million deaths worldwide annually are attributable to liver diseases. Among them, half die from cirrhosis and the other half from viral hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma. When patients with liver cirrhosis develop to the decompensated stage, a variety of complications will occur, such as ascites, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, hepatorenal syndrome, and jaundice, which will seriously affect the patient's quality of life with reduced survival time and increased socioeconomic burden. Therefore, early assessment and clinical management of cirrhosis and its complications are crucial for both clinicians and patients.
