- Abstract: Objective To evaluate the predictive value of neutrophil/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio(NHR)combined with monocyte/lymphocyte ratio(MLR)for early rebleeding after endoscopic treatment in patients with cirrhosis complicated by acute esophagogastric variceal bleeding(AEVB).Methods A total of 228 patients with cirrhosis complicated by AEVB were included in this study.According to the occurrence of early rebleeding,patients were divided into the rebleeding group(96 cases)and the non-rebleeding group(132 cases).General information and laboratory indicators of both groups were collected,and the End-Stage Liver Disease(MELD)score,Child-Turcotte-Pugh(CTP)score,Fibrosis-4(FIB-4)index,NHR,and MLR were calculated.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for early rebleeding in patients with cirrhosis complicated by AEVB.A nomogram model based on NHR and MLR was constructed to predict the risk of early rebleeding.The predictive performance and goodness of fit of the model were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,Hosmer-Lemeshow test,Net Reclassification Index(NRI)and Integrated Discrimination Improvement(IDI).Results Compared with the non-rebleeding group,systolic blood pressure,platelet count(PLT),albumin/globulin ratio(A/G)and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were decreased in the rebleeding group,while total bile acids(TBA),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),total bilirubin(TBIL),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),thrombin time(TT),international normalized ratio(INR),Fibrosis-4(FIB-4),NHR,MLR,MELD score and CTP score were increased(P＜0.05).NHR was positively correlated with AST,TBIL and INR(P＜0.05).MLR was negatively correlated with PLT,and positively correlated with AST,TBIL and FIB-4(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis results showed that prolonged TT,elevated NHR and MLR were independent risk factors for early rebleeding in patients with cirrhosis complicated by AEVB.The nomogram model based on NHR and MLR to predict early rebleeding had an area under the curve of 0.810(95%CI:0.754-0.866).The Hosmer-Lemeshow test suggested that the model fit well.IDI and NRI analyse showed that the combination of NHR and MLR had better predictive value for the early rebleeding than that of MELD score and CTP score.Conclusion NHR and MLR are effective indicators for predicting early rebleeding after endoscopic treatment in patients with cirrhosis complicated by AEVB.They are helpful in the early identification of high-risk patients and provide a reference for clinical intervention.
