Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the combination score of albumin-bilirubin index(ALBI)and alkaline phosphatase(ALP)in predicting the prognosis of patients with cirrhosis complicated by portal hypertension after receiving transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS).Methods A total of 61 patients with cirrhosis complicated by portal hypertension,who received TIPS treatment at the Lishui Municipal Central Hospital of China from January 2016 to June 2024,were retrospectively collected.According to the Youden index of ALBI and ALP,the optimal cut-off values were calculated,and the patients were divided into low ALBI-low ALP group(0-point group),high ALBI-high ALP group(2-point group),and high ALBI-low ALP or low ALBI-high ALP group(one-point group).The efficacy of ALBI-ALP score in predicting the prognosis of patients was evaluated,and the survival rate and median survival time were compared between each other among the three groups.The independent risk factors affecting the survival time of patients were analyzed.Results The maximum Youden indexes of ALBI and ALP were 0.31 and 0.34 respectively,and the optimal cut-off values were-1.56 and 108.50 respectively.There were statistically significant differences in MELD score,Child-Pugh classification,and alanine aminotransferase level between each other among the three groups(all P<0.05).The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of ALBI-ALP score was 0.77(95% CI:0.66-0.89,P=0.000 2),which was better than 0.52 of the MELD score(95% CI:0.37-0.67,P=0.77)as well as better than 0.57 of the Child-Pugh classification(95% CI:0.43-0.72,P=0.34).The total mortality of patients was 49.18%.The mortality in the 0-point group was 11.11%(2/18),which was significantly lower than 59.46%(22/37)in the one-point group as well as than 100%(6/6)in the 2-point group,and the differences were statistically significant(x2=18.20,P<0.001).In the 0-point group,as a large number of patients were still alive at the end of the study,the median survival time was unable to be calculated.The median survival time in the one-point group was 38.00 months(95% CI:23.01-52.99 months),which in the 2-point group was only 1.00 month(95% CI=0.00-2.60 months),the difference was statistically significant(x2=33.08,P<0.000 1).In the 0-point group,one-point group and 2-point group,the one-year survival rates were 100%,66% and 17%respectively,the 2-year survival rates were 100%,64% and 17% respectively,and the 3-year survival rates were 90%,53% and 0% respectively.Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that the combination score of ALBI and ALP(HR=7.11,95% CI:2.95-17.15)was an independent risk factor for the survival time of patients with cirrhosis complicated by portal hypertension after receiving TIPS.Conclusion The combination score of ALBI and ALP can effectively predict the prognosis of patients with cirrhosis complicated by portal hypertension after receiving TIPS,and this score is an independent risk factor affecting the survival time of patients.
