“…21 A low level of hemoglobin was a predictor of health-related quality of life 22 and a decreased survival in patients with cirrhosis. 21,23 Moreover, a starting Hb ≤10 g/dl was an independent risk factor for early postoperative pulmonary complications after LT 24 and a single measurement of hemoglobin predicted overall survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. 25 The prognostic importance of a reduced hemoglobin concentration has also been reported in patients with ACLF, in whom it predicted delayed mortality.…”

“…To improve the outcomes of LDLT, preoperative risk factors for poor survival such as malnutrition and pretransplant diabetes mellitus need preemptive management [2][3][4][5]. Anemia, for example, is commonly encountered in cirrhotic patients due to hypersplenism, iron and/or folate deficiency, renal insufficiency, and gastrointestinal bleeding [6], and several studies reported that preoperative anemia was a risk factor for postoperative mortality in cirrhotic patients, especially after major abdominal and cardiac surgeries [7][8][9].…”

“…However, the impact of preoperative anemia on recipient morbidity and mortality after LT is still not completely understood or thoroughly investigated [6, 10]. Therefore, this study was performed to investigate the impact of preoperative moderate‐to‐severe anemia on the outcomes after LDLT.…”

“…Hemoglobin ≤ 100 g/L is an independent risk factor for postoperative pulmonary complications ( 33 ). Similarly, studies have suggested that serum albumin reduction on the 1st day after surgery can be a predictor of PPCs in patients with lung cancer after thoracoscopic anatomy ( 24 ).…”
