Reviewer:  Panagiotis Tsibouris
Reviewer's report:
Abstract Presentation of the study population belongs in the results Only general characteristics
and definition of inclusion and exclusion criteria belongs in methods OR and p-values should
be included for statistical significant factors Methods definition of cardiovascular, pulmonary
and renal comorbidities should be better defined since liver cirrhosis could be complicated
with renal, pulmonary and cardiovascular imbalance To what extend were those complications
accepted? Lactation should be also be exclusion criterion Was it not been better to provide one or
more test validating nutritional status Statistics Power of the study should be calculated Results
Numerical and p-values should be included for every significant risk factor Apart from  OR p-
values should be included PNI might be useful to be compared with MELD score or CPT as
markers of disease cirrhosis severity
