LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Muscle strength and mortality while on a liver transplant waiting list (authors' response)

First of all, we would like to thank the Brazilian Journal of Physical Therapy for the opportunity to share such an interesting subject which is not widely known, in spite of the commendable assistance and interdisciplinary work offered by many liver transplant centers.

We would also like to express our gratitude to the readers, and agree with their remarks. We take this opportunity to announce that we will soon submit an article to this Journal addressing all of the comments, including the Kaplan-Meier curve and showing the survival rate after liver transplant.
