| 1 | Platelet-albumin-bilirubin score - a predictor of outcome of acute variceal bleeding in patients with cirrhosis显示文摘BACKGROUND The albumin-bilirubin(ALBI)score was validated as a prognostic indicator in patients with liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma.Incorporating platelet count in the platelet-albumin-bilirubin(PALBI)score improved validity in predicting outcome of patients undergoing resection and ablation.AIM To evaluate the PALBI score in predicting outcome of acute variceal bleeding in patients with cirrhosis.METHODS The data of 1517 patients with cirrhosis presenting with variceal bleeding were analyzed.Child Turcotte Pugh(CTP)class,Model of End-stage Liver Disease(MELD),ALBI and PALBI scores were calculated on admission,and were correlated to the outcome of variceal bleeding.Areas under the receivingoperator characteristic curve(AUROC)were calculated for survival and rebleeding.RESULTS Mean age was 52.6 years;1176 were male(77.5%),69 CTP-A(4.5%),434 CTP-B(29.2%),1014 CTP-C(66.8%);306 PALBI-1(20.2%),285 PALBI-2(18.8%),and 926 PALBI-3(61.1%).Three hundred and thirty-two patients died during hospitalization(21.9%).Bleeding-related mortality occurred in 11%of CTP-B,28%of CTP-C,in 21.8%of PALBI-2 and 34.4%of PALBI-3 patients.The AUROC for predicting survival of acute variceal bleeding was 0.668,0.689,0.803 and 0.871 for CTP,MELD,ALBI and PALBI scores,respectively.For predicting rebleeding the AUROC was 0.681,0.74,0.766 and 0.794 for CTP,MELD,ALBI and PALBI scores,respectively.CONCLUSION PALBI score on admission is a good prognostic indicator for patients with acute variceal bleeding and predicts early mortality and rebleeding. | Omar Elshaarawy Naglaa Allam Eman Abdelsameea Asmaa Gomaa Imam Waked | 2020 | World Journal of Hepatology2020,12,3: | 13 |
| 2 | Defining the advantages and exposing the limitations of endoscopic variceal ligation in controlling acute bleeding and achieving complete variceal eradication显示文摘BACKGROUND Bleeding esophageal varices(BEV)is a potentially life-threatening complication in patients with portal hypertension with mortality rates as high as 25%within six weeks of the index variceal bleed.After control of the initial bleeding episode patients should enter a long-term surveillance program with endoscopic intervention combined with non-selectiveβ-blockers to prevent further bleeding and eradicate EV.AIM To assess the efficacy of endoscopic variceal ligation(EVL)in controlling acute variceal bleeding,preventing variceal recurrence and rebleeding and achieving complete eradication of esophageal varices(EV)in patients who present with BEV.METHODS A prospectively documented single-center database was used to retrospectively identify all patients with BEV who were treated with EVL between 2000 and 2018.Control of acute bleeding,variceal recurrence,rebleeding,eradication and survival were analyzed using Baveno assessment criteria.RESULTS One hundred and forty patients(100 men,40 women;mean age 50 years;range,21-84 years;Child-Pugh grade A=32;B=48;C=60)underwent 160 emergency and 298 elective EVL interventions during a total of 928 endoscopy sessions.One hundred and fourteen(81%)of the 140 patients had variceal bleeding that was effectively controlled during the index banding procedure and never bled again from EV,while 26(19%)patients had complicated and refractory variceal bleeding.EVL controlled the acute sentinel variceal bleed during the first endoscopic intervention in 134 of 140 patients(95.7%).Six patients required balloon tamponade for control and 4 other patients rebled in hospital.Overall 5-d endoscopic failure to control variceal bleeding was 7.1%(n=10)and four patients required a salvage transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt.Index admission mortality was 14.2%(n=20).EV were completely eradicated in 50 of 111 patients(45%)who survived>3 mo of whom 31 recurred and 3 rebled.Sixteen(13.3%)of 120 surviving patients subsequently had 21 EV rebleeding episodes and 10 patients bled from other sources after discharge from hospital.Overall rebleeding from all sources after 2 years was 21.7%(n=26).Sixty-nine(49.3%)of the 140 patients died,mainly due to liver failure(n=46)during follow-up.Cumulative survival for the 140 patients was 71.4%at 1 year,65%at 3 years,60%at 5 years and 52.1%at 10 years.CONCLUSION EVL was highly effective in controlling the sentinel variceal bleed with an overall 5-day failure to control bleeding of 7.1%.Although repeated EVL achieved complete variceal eradication in less than half of patients with BEV,of whom 62%recurred,there was a significant reduction in subsequent rebleeding. | Jake Krige Eduard Jonas Urda Kotze Christo Kloppers Karan Gandhi Hisham Allam Marc Bernon Sean Burmeister Mashiko Setshedi | 2020 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy2020,12,10: | 10 |
| 3 | Validation of modified albumin-bilirubin-TNM score as a prognostic model to evaluate patients with hepatocellular carcinoma显示文摘BACKGROUND An ideal staging system for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)should rely on the hepatic reserve function and tumor burden.With the improvement in diagnostic and treatment strategies for HCC,in addition to recent treatment of viral hepatitis,finding a suitable assessment tool for hepatic reserve has become mandatory.AIM To validate a recently proposed modified albumin-bilirubin-TNM(mALBI-T)grade as a prognostic model for patients with HCC in Egypt.METHODS For patients diagnosed with HCC,Child-Turcotte-Pugh(CTP)score,Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer(BCLC)stage,albumin-bilirubin(ALBI),plateltetalbumin– bilirubin(PALBI),ALBI-based BCLC,ALBI-T and mALBI-T grades were estimated.Patients were followed from time of diagnosis to date of death or date of data collection if they remained alive.Overall survival and received treatments were determined.Survival data were analyzed.RESULTS A total of 1910 patients were included(mean age,57 years;1575 males).At presentation,50.6%had CTP A,36.1%had CTP B and 13.4%had CTP C;12%had ALBI grade 1,62.3%had ALBI grade 2 and 24.7%had ALBI grade 3.Overall median survival was 13 mo;survival was better in patients with ALBI 1 than in those with ALBI 2 and 3(28.6 vs 14 and 5.8 mo,respectively,P<0.001).Patients with ALBI-T grades 0 and 1 had better survival than those with ALBI-T grades 2,3,4 and 5(P<0.001).The modified ALBI-T showed better stratification and significant improvement in prediction of survival.CONCLUSION ALBI-T grade is a superior prognostic tool that selects patients with HCC who have better liver reservoir and tumor stage.mALBI-T is a better prognostic model in patients with HCC. | Omar Elshaarawy Alzhraa Alkhatib Mostafa Elhelbawy Asmaa Gomaa Naglaa Allam Ayman Alsebaey Eman Rewisha Imam Waked | 2019 | World Journal of Hepatology2019,11,6: | 7 |
| 4 | Liver transplantation for hepatitis B virus: Decreasing indication and changing trends显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the indication and outcome of hepatitis B virus(HBV)-related liver transplantation(LT) in the era of newer antiviral agents.METHODS: We collected data on all patients who underwent transplantation at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center.These data included demographic,perioperative and long-term postoperative follow-up data including viral serological markers,HBV DNA,and repeated liver imaging.Between January 1990 and January 2012,133 patients(106 males and 27 females) underwent LT for HBV-related cirrhosis at our center.All patients were followed up frequently during the first year following transplantation,according to our standard protocol; follow-up visits occurred every 3-6 mo thereafter.Breakthrough infection was definedas re-emergence of HBV-DNA or hepatitis B surface antigen(HBs Ag) while on treatment.Five patients transplanted prior to 1992 did not receive immediate posttransplant anti-HBV prophylaxis; all other patients were treated with HBIG and at least one nucleos(t)ide analog.RESULTS: One hundred and thirty-three patients underwent LT for HBV and were followed for a median of 82 mo(range: 1-274).The rates of post-LT survival and HBV recurrence during the follow-up period were 89% and 11%,respectively.The following factors were associated with disease recurrence: younger age(44.3 ± 16.2 years vs 51.4 ± 9.9 years,P = 0.02),positive pretransplant hepatitis B e antigen(HBe Ag)(60% vs 14%,P < 0.0001),detectable pretransplant HBV DNA(60% vs 27%,P = 0.03),positive posttransplant HBs Ag(80% vs 4%,P < 0.0001) and positive posttransplant HBe Ag(27% vs 1%,P < 0.0001).Forty-four(33%) patients had hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).In the first(pre-2007) group,HBV was the second leading indication for LT after hepatitis C virus infection.A total of 64 transplants were performed,including 46(72%) for decompensated HBV cirrhosis,12(19%) for decompensated cirrhosis complicated by HCC and 6(10%) for compensated cirrhosis complicated by HCC.In the second group,nonalcoholic steatohepatitis surpassed HBV as the second leading indication for LT.A total of 69 HBV related transplants were performed,including 43(62%) for decompensated HBV cirrhosis,7(10%) for decompensated cirrhosis complicated by HCC and 19(27.5%) for compensated cirrhosis complicated by HCC.There was a significant(P = 0.007) increase in the number of transplants for compensated cirrhosis complicated by HCC.CONCLUSION: The use of potent anti-HBV agents has led to a changing trend in the indications for LT.HBV is currently the third leading indication for LT in this hyperendemic area. | Waleed Al-hamoudi Hussien Elsiesy Abdulrahman Bendahmash Nasser Al-masri Safiyya Ali Naglaa Allam Mohammed Al Sofayan Hamad Al Bahili Mohammed Al Sebayel Dieter Broering Sammy Saab Faisal Abaalkhail | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,26: | 4 |
| 5 | Normal liver stiffness: a study in living donors with normal liver histology显示文摘AIM: To define the normal range of liver stiffness(LS) values using transient elastography in living-related liver transplantation candidate donors with normal liver histology. METHODS: LS was measured using Fibroscan in 50(16 women, 34 men) healthy potential donors(mean age 28.4 ± 5.9 years) who were being evaluated for liver donation for their relatives at the National Liver Institute, Menoufeya University, Egypt. All potential donors had normal liver tests and were negative for hepatitis B or C virus infection. Abdominal ultrasounds showed normal findings. None of the subjects had diabetes, hypertension, renal impairment, heart disease, or body mass index > 30 kg/m2. All subjects had normal liver histology upon liver biopsy. They all donated the right lobe of their liver with successful outcomes.RESULTS: The mean LS was 4.3 ± 1.2 k Pa(range: 1.8-7.1 k Pa). The 5th and 95 th percentiles of normal LS were 2.6 k Pa and 6.8 k Pa, respectively, with a median of 4 k Pa; the interquartile range was 0.6 ± 0.4. LS measurements were not significantly different between men and women(4.4 ± 1.1 k Pa vs 3.9 ± 1.3 k Pa) and did not correlate with age. However, stiffness values were significantly lower in subjects with a body mass index < 26 kg/m2 compared to those with an index ≥ 26 kg/m2(4.0 ± 1.1 k Pa vs 4.6 ± 1.2 k Pa; P <0.05). There were no differences in hospital stay or postoperative bilirubin, albumin,alanine and aspartate transaminases, or creatinine levels(at discharge) between donors with livers stiffness ≤ 4 k Pa and those with stiffness > 4 k Pa. CONCLUSION: Healthy donors with normal liver histology have a median LS of 4 k Pa. Stiffness values are elevated relative to increase in body mass index. | Ayman Alsebaey Naglaa Allam Khalid Alswat Imam Waked | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015,7,8: | 3 |
