Methods: Overall, 1,067 cirrhotic patients admitted between January 2009 and December 2014 were retrospectively enrolled. We calculated the Child-Pugh, model for end-stage liver disease (MELD), and ALBI scores. We performed receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analyses to assess the in-hospital death. We calculated the area under the ROC curve (AUC).                  
Results: In the overall analysis, all of the three scores can significantly assess the in-hospital death (Child-Pugh score AUC =0.750, 95% CI: 0.713–0.784, P},
