摘要

本研究的目的是探讨血清N-聚糖模型在285 例丙氨酸转移酶(alanine aminotransferase, ALT)水平正常(< 40 IU·L−1)的慢性乙型肝炎(慢性乙肝)患者中诊断显著肝纤维化和肝硬化的临床意义。对每位入组患者进行肝脏组织活检,并使用Ishak 评分系统评估患者肝脏组织纤维化程度。应用基于DNA测序仪的荧光糖电泳技术检测患者血清N-聚糖图谱,每例患者的血清样本中共鉴定出9 个N-聚糖峰。利用机器学习算法,即随机森林(random forest, RF)构建更理想的血清N-聚糖模型,以诊断显著肝纤维化(≥ F3)和肝硬化(≥ F5),并比较血清N-聚糖模型和其他纤维化标志物的诊断效能。肝脏组织活检结果显示,有显著肝纤维化和肝硬化的患者分别占63.86%(182/285)和16.49%(47/285),有显著炎症的患者为4.91%(14/285)。血清N-聚糖RF-A模型具有很好的诊断显著肝纤维化(≥ F3)的效能,其受试者工作特征曲线下面积(area under receiver operating characteristic curve, AUROC)为0.94,与肝脏组织活检的符合率为90.45%。在诊断肝硬化(≥ F5)时,血清N-聚糖RF-B模型的AUROC为0.97,与肝脏组织活检的符合率为88.94%。血清N-聚糖模型(RF-A 和RF-B)的诊断效能优于肝硬度值测量(liver stiffness measurement, LSM)、基于4 因子的纤维化指数(fibrosis index based on the four factors, FIB-4)和天冬氨酸转氨酶与血小板比率指数(aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index, APRI)。在ALT 水平正常的慢性乙肝患者中,血清N-聚糖模型可作为诊断显著肝纤维化或肝硬化的潜在生物标志物。
