Table 1

Summary of four cases of Acute HAV-related ALF requiring LT.

Patient	Age/gender	Lab tests					MELD	HE	Status 1A (Y/N)	Time from admission to LT (days)	Pathology
		pAST (IU/L)	pALT (IU/L)	pT-bili (mg/dL)	pINR	pCr (mg/dL)
1	64 F	7471	7270	6.7	>8.18	2.0	40	Y	Y	1	Acute hepatitis with massive hepatic necrosis
2	69 F	5442	5123	10.6	8.31	1.96	40	Y	Y	2	Acute hepatitis with massive hepatic necrosis
3	44 F	7500	6690	9.2	6.33	1.5	39	Y	Y	2	Acute hepatitis with massive hepatic necrosis
4	64 M	9137	9021	13.0	8.04	2.14	40	Y	Y	3	Acute hepatitis with massive hepatic necrosis

F: female; M: male; pAST: peak aspartate aminotransferase; pALT: peak alanine aminotransferase; pT-bili: peak total bilirubin; pINR: peak international normalized ratio; pCr: peak creatinine; MELD: model for end-stage liver disease score; HE: hepatic encephalopathy; Y: yes; N: no; LT: liver transplantation.
