Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the risk factors of death within two years of the patients with liver cirrhosis after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS), and to explore the predictive value of 6 common clinical evaluation systems on the risk of death after TIPS.Methods:TIPS clinical data from 132 patients with liver cirrhosis were analyzed retrospectively. According to the 2-year clinical outcome after TIPS, the patients were divided into the death group and the survival group. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of death within 2 years after TIPS. According to the scores of CTP, MELD, MELD Na, BioCliM, FIB-4, and ALBI evaluation systems, the prediction efficiency of death risk of the six evaluation systems was evaluated by using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the area under the curve (AUC).Results:During the 2-year follow-up period after TIPS, the age, urea nitrogen level, platelet count, and proportion of hepatic encephalopathy in the death group were higher than those in the survival group one month after TIPS, and the serum sodium level was lower than those in the survival group (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the elderly and hepatic encephalopathy one month after operation were independent risk factors for death (all P<0.05). At 1 week after the surgery, there were significant differences in CTP, MELD, and MELD-Na scores between the survival group and the death group (all P<0.05). One week after operation, the AUC of ROC of CTP, MELD, MELD-Na, and ALBI scores were 0.685, 0.721, 0.805, and 0.658 respectively, and the optimal critical values were 8.5, 12.99, 14.51 and -1.52 respectively. Conclusions:The elderly and the occurrence of hepatic encephalopathy one month after TIPS are independent risk factors for the death of liver cirrhosis patients after TIPS. The evaluation of CTP, MELD, MELD-Na, and ALBI one week after TIPS can predict the death risk of decompensated liver cirrhosis patients within 2 years after TIPS, and MELD-Na has the best predictive effect.
