Abstract

Background: Conflicting information exists regarding the impact of different detection methods for macrovesicular steatosis (MaS) in liver transplantation (LT). Therefore, the two MaS estimation methods, histological analysis and gross examination, and their influence on LT were compared.

Methods: We included all studies describing allograft steatosis in adult deceased donor's LT. The outcome was evaluated either by histological analysis or macroscopic assessment by the surgeon.

Results: Of the 3483 studies, 21 were eligible and included in our analysis (3155 participants). In the histological analysis detection method, the results showed a significantly higher graft loss at 1-year follow-up (odds ratio [OR] 1.61, P = .01), 3-year (OR 1.45, P = .05), and 5-year (OR 1.65, P = .01) in the moderate/severe MaS patients following transplantation. In the gross examination method, all results were statistically insignificant. The meta-regression, adjusting for the detection method, suggests a significant association between the histological method and increased graft loss compared to the gross method.

Conclusions: Our data demonstrate that the patients evaluated through the histological method tend to have reliable outcomes to those evaluated through gross examination. Therefore, it may be crucial to use precise donor steatosis evaluation using the histological method.

肝移植中供体肝大泡性脂肪变性的组织学分析和大体评估的比较:一项系统综述和荟萃分析。
背景:关于肝移植(LT)中不同检测方法对大泡性脂肪变性(MaS)的影响,存在相互矛盾的信息。因此,比较组织学分析和大体检查两种MaS估计方法及其对LT的影响。方法:我们纳入了所有描述成人死亡供体lt中同种异体移植脂肪变性的研究。通过组织学分析或外科医生的宏观评估来评估结果。结果:在3483项研究中,21项符合条件并纳入我们的分析(3155名参与者)。在组织学分析检测方法中,结果显示中/重度MaS患者在移植后随访1年(比值比[OR] 1.61, P = 0.01)、3年(比值比[OR] 1.45, P = 0.05)和5年(比值比[OR] 1.65, P = 0.01)时移植物损失显著增加。在粗检法中,所有结果均无统计学意义。对检测方法进行调整后的meta回归表明,与粗法相比,组织学方法与移植物损失增加之间存在显著关联。结论:我们的数据表明,通过组织学方法评估的患者比通过肉眼检查评估的患者有更可靠的结果。因此,使用组织学方法对供体脂肪变性进行精确评估可能是至关重要的。
