Early post-operative acute phase response in patients with early graft dysfunction is predictive of 6-month and 12-month mortality in liver transplant recipients.

Abstract:

UNLABELLED:Early allograft dysfunction (EAD) after liver transplantation is mostly a reversible event caused by factors related to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. EAD represents a hepatic injury associated with pre- and early post-transplant inflammatory cytokine responses. Aim of the present study was to evaluate the prognostic and diagnostic value of CRP in liver transplant recipients with EAD. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Forty-seven patients with EAD were compared with 115 non-EAD patients. Pre- and post-transplant parameters were analyzed. EAD was defined based on postoperative liver function tests such as INR, bilirubin and liver enzymes. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 18.0. RESULTS:Pre-transplant liver enzyme were not significantly different in the two groups. At day 3, 5 and 10 post-transplant CRP was significantly higher in patients with EAD than in non-EAD patients (p⩽0.001 for all investigations) and remained consistently high in patients with EAD and low in non-EAD patients. EAD patients with high CRP at post-transplant days 3 and 5 showed lower survival at 6-month and 12-month post-transplant than patients with low CRP. CONCLUSION:Our results indicate a prognostic and diagnostic value of CRP in patients with early graft dysfunction and predict 6-month and 12-month mortality in liver transplant recipients.
