UK-PBC Risk Score

UK-PBC risk score (Carbone 2016): from 12-month alkaline phosphatase, transaminase, and bilirubin plus baseline albumin and platelets, the 5-, 10-, and 15-year risk of end-stage liver disease in PBC.

Example

Alkaline phosphatase
2.0
Transaminase ALT or AST
1.5
Bilirubin
1.0
Baseline albumin
1.1
Baseline platelets
1.5

Result: UK-PBC risk of end-stage liver disease — 4.7% at 5 yr, 14.9% at 10 yr, 26% at 15 yr.

The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.

What the result means

Output
Risk of transplant / liver-related death at 5, 10, 15 years via 1 − S₀^exp(LP). Complements the GLOBE score.

What you enter

  • Alkaline phosphatase (× ULN, 12 mo)
  • Transaminase ALT or AST (× ULN, 12 mo)
  • Bilirubin (× ULN, 12 mo)
  • Baseline albumin (× LLN)
  • Baseline platelets (× LLN)
How this is calculated
Inputs
ALP, transaminase, bilirubin (× ULN at 12 mo) plus baseline albumin and platelets (× LLN).
