The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of noninvasive markers of liver fibrosis in alcoholic liver disease.
Fifty-four clinical and biochemical parameters including serum fibrosis markers (hyaluronate and transforming growth factor beta1) were analyzed in 146 consecutive heavy drinkers (106 men, 40 women; mean age 49.2 years). Following liver biopsy, fibrosis was evaluated using a semi-quantitative scoring system (no fibrosis (0) to severe fibrosis (3 + )). Multivariate analysis was performed to determine the markers that were best correlated with the fibrosis score.
Fifty-nine patients (40.4 %) had severe fibrosis (3 +) while 87 (59.6 %) had no fibrosis or moderate fibrosis (0 to 2 +). In multivariate analysis, serum hyaluronate and the prothrombin index were the best markers for the prediction of severe fibrosis. Hyaluronate and the prothrombin index had a diagnostic accuracy of 91.1 % and 89.7 %, respectively in the whole population. Finally, a significant negative correlation was found between hyaluronate and the prothrombin index (r =- 0.86, P <0.0001).
Using only hyaluronate and the prothrombin index, 9 out of 10 alcoholic patients can be correctly classified according to the severity of liver fibrosis.
本研究旨在评估酒精性肝病中肝纤维化无创标志物的诊断准确性。
对146例连续的重度饮酒者(106例男性,40例女性;平均年龄49.2岁)分析了54项临床和生化参数,包括血清纤维化标志物(透明质酸和转化生长因子β1)。肝脏活检后,使用半定量评分系统(无纤维化(0)至重度纤维化(3 +))评估纤维化情况。进行多变量分析以确定与纤维化评分相关性最佳的标志物。
59例患者(40.4%)有重度纤维化(3 +),而87例(59.6%)无纤维化或有中度纤维化(0至2 +)。在多变量分析中,血清透明质酸和凝血酶原指数是预测重度纤维化的最佳标志物。在总体人群中,透明质酸和凝血酶原指数的诊断准确性分别为91.1%和89.7%。最后,发现透明质酸与凝血酶原指数之间存在显著负相关(r = -0.86,P <0.0001)。
仅使用透明质酸和凝血酶原指数,10例酒精性肝病患者中9例可根据肝纤维化严重程度正确分类。
