Abstract:
Objective:To explore the onset characteristics and pathophysiological changes of simple liver cyst in Beijing.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was used. The physical examination data of Department of Health Management of Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University for 10 years from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2021 were analyzed. Selected clinical data of 37 389 subjects with 2 or more repeated ultrasound examinations, including 17 759 males, 19 630 females, aged (44.4±16.2) years, ranged from 22-103 years. 3 431 cases hepatic cyst were confirmed by repeated ultrasound examination, the data of the liver cyst formation after the same physical examination were the study group ( n=3 431), and the data before cyst formation were the control group ( n=3 431). The observation indicators included: (1) the epidemiological characteristics of liver cysts; (2) the age distribution of the incidence of liver cysts; (3) the gender distribution of the incidence of liver cysts; (4) the pathophysiological changes of liver cysts.Measurement data of normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( ± s). The measurement data of skewed distribution were expressed as M ( Q1, Q3), using Wilcoxon signed rank sum test for comparing groups and chi-square test for comparing count data. The factors associated with hepatic cyst pathogenesis were summarized by multivariate Logistic regression. Results:The overall incidence of hepatic cysts was 9.18%, 9.78% in males, 8.63% in females, and the incidence of males was greater than that of females. The incidence of males over 70 to 79 years old decreased slightly, and the incidence in males and females in the other age groups increased with age.Results of multivariate Logistic analysis showed age ( OR=1.01, 95% CI: 1.01-1.02, P<0.01), waist circumference( OR=1.02, 95% CI: 1.01-1.02, P<0.01), systolic blood pressure ( OR=1.00, 95% CI: 0.99-1.00, P=0.013), ALT ( OR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P<0.01), AST ( OR=1.03, 95% CI: 1.02-1.04, P<0.01), triglyceride lipids ( OR=0.90, 95% CI: 0.86-0.95, P<0.01), HDL( OR=0.71, 95% CI: 0.60-0.83, P<0.01), uric acid ( OR=1.00, 95% CI: 1.00-1.00, P<0.01), creatinine ( OR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.99-0.99, P<0.01) were the factors influencing the occurrence of liver cysts. Conclusions:The incidence of liver cysts increased linearly with age, and the incidence of males was greater than that of females. Age, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, ALT, AST, triglycerides, HDL, uric acid, and creatinine may interact with the occurrence and development of liver cysts.
