3 Figure 2 Change from baseline to post-treatment week 4 in MELD scores in patients with Child–Pugh B and C disease. The figure shows the change from baseline in MELD scores in patients in groups 1, 2, 5, and 6. MELD is a scoring system for assessing the severity of chronic liver disease and was designed to measure the urgency of the need for liver transplantation. The scores were calculated using the patient's values for serum bilirubin, serum creatinine, and the international normalized ratio for prothrombin time. The resulting scores range from 6 (the least ill patients) to 40+ (gravely ill patients). The 3-month mortality rate was 71% for patients with a score of 40 or higher, 53% for patients with a score of 30–39, 20% for patients with a score of 20–29, 6% for patients with a score of 10–19, and 2% for patients with a score of 9 or less.26 Each black bar represents an individual patient. Missing patient data for the post-treatment week 4 visit are indicated in the figure. Gastroenterology  , DOI: ( /j.gastro ) Copyright © 2015 AGA Institute Terms and Conditions
