We aimed to assess the association between red cell distribution width-to-platelet ratio (RPR) and hepatic fibrosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
The 388 subjects fulfilling the diagnostic criteria of Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Red cell distribution, platelet, and other clinical and laboratory parameters were measured.
NAFLD patients with advanced fibrosis had significantly higher RPR than those without fibrosis (P < .001). Spearman correlation analysis showed that RPR were significantly correlated with age, sex, creatinine, hemoglobin, white blood cell, and advanced fibrosis (all with P < .05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that RPR was an independent factor predicting advanced fibrosis (fibrosis-4 calculator ≥1.3) in NAFLD patients (OR: 5.718, 95%CI: 3.326-9.830, P < .001).
Our findings suggested that RPR were significantly associated with advanced fibrosis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients.
我们旨在评估非酒精性脂肪性肝病中红细胞分布宽度与血小板比值(RPR)与肝纤维化之间的关联。
本横断面研究纳入了388名符合非酒精性脂肪性肝病(NAFLD)诊断标准的受试者。测量了红细胞分布、血小板以及其他临床和实验室参数。
晚期纤维化的NAFLD患者的RPR显著高于无纤维化患者(P<0.001)。Spearman相关性分析显示,RPR与年龄、性别、肌酐、血红蛋白、白细胞以及晚期纤维化显著相关(均P<0.05)。多因素逻辑回归分析显示,RPR是预测NAFLD患者晚期纤维化(纤维化-4计算器≥1.3)的独立因素(OR:5.718,95%CI:3.326-9.830,P<0.001)。
我们的研究结果表明,RPR与非酒精性脂肪性肝病患者的晚期纤维化显著相关。
