ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and living conditions of hepatic diabetes (HD) patients and to analyze the risk factors of the prognosis of HD patient .Methods One hundred and sixty‐eight cases of cirrhosis cases were divided into liver cirrhosis group(n=74) ,the combined group cases(n=48)and combined HD type 2 diabetes (T2MD) group(n=46)se‐lected from January 2011 to December 2012 .Death was end point .The clinical features and prognosis of patients were compared . The risk factors for liver cirrhosis were analyzed by the simple factor analysis and Logistic regression analysis .Results The pa‐tients with history of diabetes in T2MD group were more than those in the HD group and the cirrhosis group (P0 .05) .The total bilirubin (TBil) of HD group was higher than those of the T2MD group and liver cirrhosis group(P<0 .05) .The levels of fasting glucose levels(FPG) ,insulin resistance index (HOMA‐IR) ,total cholesterol (TG) ,C‐peptide of liver cirrhosis group were lower than HD group and T2MD group (P<0 .05) .The levels of FPG ,C peptide of HD group were higher than that of T2MD group (P<0 .05) .The levels of TG of T2MD group were higher than that of HD group (P<0 .05) .Logistic multivariate analysis showed that age ,alcohol consump‐tion ,diabetes ,Child‐Pugh score were independent risk factors for death in patients with liver cirrhosis .Conclusion The morbidity and mortality of HD patients may be higher than patients with liver cirrhosis ,and HD could increase the risk of death in patients with liver cirrhosis .
