Revised Mayo PSC Natural-History Model

Revised Mayo PSC natural-history model (Kim 2000): age, bilirubin, albumin, AST, and a history of variceal bleeding give a relative risk score banding survival in primary sclerosing cholangitis.

Example

Age
55 years
Bilirubin
5 mg/dL
Albumin
3.0 g/dL
AST
120 U/L
History of variceal bleeding
Yes

Result: Mayo PSC risk score 3.82 — high risk band.

What the result means

Bands
R < 0 low, 0–< 2 intermediate, ≥ 2 high. Higher = worse survival.

What you enter

  • Age
  • Bilirubin
  • Albumin
  • AST
  • History of variceal bleeding
How this is calculated
Formula
R = 0.03 × age + 0.54 × ln(bilirubin) + 0.54 × ln(AST) + 1.24 × (variceal bleed) − 0.84 × albumin.
