Abstract
BACKGROUND
Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is the most common postoperative complication and the leading cause of death after hepatectomy. The albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score and nutritional risk index (NRI) have been shown to assess end-stage liver disease and predict PHLF and patient survival. We hypothesized that the ALBI score and NRI interact in the prediction of PHLF.
AIM
To analyze the interaction between the ALBI score and NRI in PHLF in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
METHODS
This retrospective study included 186 patients who underwent hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma at the Affiliated Hospital of Youjiang Medical University for Nationalities between January 2020 and July 2023. Data on patient characteristics and laboratory indices were collected from their medical records. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were performed to determine the interaction effect between the ALBI score and NRI in PHLF.
RESULTS
Of the 186 patients included in the study, PHLF occurred in 44 (23.66%). After adjusting for confounders, multivariate logistic regression identified ALBI grade 2/3 [odds ratio (OR) = 73.713, 95% confidence interval (CI): 9.175-592.199] and NRI > 97.5 (OR = 58.990, 95%CI: 7.337-474.297) as risk factors for PHLF. No multiplicative interaction was observed between the ALBI score and NRI (OR = 0.357, 95%CI: 0.022-5.889). However, the risk of PHLF in patients with ALBI grade 2/3 and NRI < 97.5 was 101 times greater than that in patients with ALBI grade 1 and NRI ≥ 97.5 (95%CI: 56.445-523.839), indicating a significant additive interaction between the ALBI score and NRI in PHLF.
CONCLUSION
Both the ALBI score and NRI were risk factors for PHLF, and there was an additive interaction between the ALBI score and NRI in PHLF.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
