NCT ID NCT07024355

First seen Jan 30, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 22 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a new scoring system (called the Mansoura score) can accurately predict a serious infection called spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) in people with liver cirrhosis and fluid buildup in the belly. The goal is to identify the infection early without invasive tests, so antibiotics can be started quickly. The study will enroll 250 adults with cirrhosis and ascites, and will check how well the score works compared to standard lab tests.
