Abstract
Based on the current United Network for Organ Sharing definition, ECDs in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis were associated with similar overall survival but increased risk of graft failure. Given the shortage of organs, creation of an easily calculated, liver-specific model similar to the KDPI may help risk stratify patients and improve organ allocation.
