Background Advances in immunosuppression have improved outcomes after deceased-donor liver transplantation (DDLT). However, patient factors still affect long-term survival and graft loss. This study examines the predictive value of preoperative C-reactive-protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) regarding recipient (RS) (GS) DDLT.
