  • 摘要:   目的  阐明代谢相关脂肪性肝病(MAFLD)患者肝纤维化评分、炎症标志物与胆结石之间的关联,探索肝纤维化评分在炎症标志物与胆结石关系中的中介作用。  方法  回顾性纳入2014年1月—2023年6月在苏北人民医院接受体检并确诊MAFLD的患者,根据腹部彩超检查结果分为胆结石组(n=1 724)和非胆结石组(n=12 843)。收集患者临床数据,包括人口统计学信息、相关病史和家族史,以及体格检查、彩色多普勒超声检查和实验室生化指标。与代谢紊乱和胰岛素抵抗相关的生物标志物包括甘油三酯-葡萄糖指数(TyG)、TyG-体重指数(TyG-BMI)、血浆致动脉粥样硬化指数(AIP)及非高密度脂蛋白胆固醇与高密度脂蛋白胆固醇比值(NHHR);与炎症和营养状况相关的生物标志物包括中性粒细胞与淋巴细胞比值(NLR)、中性粒细胞百分比与白蛋白比值(NPAR)及单核细胞与淋巴细胞比值(MLR);评估肝纤维化程度和肝功能的生物标志物包括白蛋白-胆红素(ALBI)评分、非酒精性脂肪性肝病纤维化评分(NFS)、纤维化-4(FIB-4)指数和天冬氨酸氨基转移酶与血小板比值指数(APRI)。符合正态分布的计量资料2组间比较采用成组t检验;非正态分布的计量资料2组间比较采用Mann-Whitney U检验;计数资料2组间比较采用χ2检验。采用多因素Logistic回归分析、限制性立方样条分析和中介效应分析研究肝纤维化标志物、炎症标志物与胆结石患病风险之间的关联。  结果  MAFLD患者的胆结石患病率为11.8%。胆结石组与非胆结石组在性别、年龄、吸烟史、糖尿病、高血压、淋巴细胞、血小板、葡萄糖、白蛋白、血清尿酸、丙氨酸氨基转移酶、天冬氨酸氨基转移酶、红细胞、NLR、NPAR、MLR、NFS、FIB-4指数和ALBI评分方面均存在显著差异(P值均<0.05)。多因素Logistic回归分析结果显示,在完全调整后的模型中,NLR[比值比(odds,ratio,OR)=1.091,95%置信区间(95% confidence interval, 95%CI):1.028~1.160]、NPAR(OR=1.073,95%CI:1.042~1.105)、MLR(OR=1.142,95%CI:1.057~1.232)、NFS(OR=1.239,95%CI:1.190~1.291)和FIB-4指数(OR=1.326,95%CI:1.241~1.417)是胆结石患病风险的独立影响因素(P值均<0.05)。限制性立方样条分析显示,NFS和FIB-4指数与胆结石发生风险之间存在显著的非线性关联(非线性P值均<0.05)。中介分析进一步表明,NLR、MLR和NPAR与胆结石的关联部分可通过NFS或FIB-4指数介导,NFS和FIB-4指数的中介占比分别为36.79%、28.09%、29.67%和18.31%、17.70%、11.57%。  结论  MAFLD患者中,NFS和FIB-4指数与胆结石的患病率呈非线性关联,且介导炎症标志物NLR、NPAR和MLR与胆结石风险之间的关联。
