AIM:TO identify the risk factors in predicting the outcome of acute-on-chronic hepatitis B liver failure patients.METHODS:We retrospectively divided 113 patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure-hepatitis B virus (ACLF-HBV) and without concurrent hepatitis C or D virus infection and hepatocellular carcinoma into two groups according to their outcomes after anti-HBV therapy.Their demographic,clinical,and biochemical data on the day of diagnosis and after the first week of treatment were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test,Fisher's exact test,and a multiple logistic regression analysis.RESULTS:The study included 113 patients (87 men and 26 women) with a mean age of 49.84 years.Fiftytwo patients survived,and 61 patients died.Liver failure (85.2%),sepsis (34.4%),and multiple organ failure (39.3%) were the main causes of death.Multivariate analyses showed that Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) Ⅱ scores ≥ 12[odds ratio (OR) =7.160,95% CI:2.834-18.092,P <0.001] and positive blood culture (OR =13.520,95%CI:2.740-66.721,P =0.001) on the day of diagnosis and model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) scores ≥ 28 (OR =8.182,95% CI:1.884-35.527,P =0.005)after the first week of treatment were independent predictors of mortality.CONCLUSION:APACHE Ⅱ scores on the day of diagnosis and MELD scores after the first week of anti-HBV therapy are feasible predictors of outcome in ACLF-HBV patients.
