ABSTRACT

Objective:

To investigate the clinical features of primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) with thyroid disease (TD) and the association between TD and PBC.

Methods:

From 2005 to 2017, clinical data of PBC patients from the affiliated hospital of Qingdao university were retrospectively analyzed. All PBC patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether they have TD. The general conditionsand clinical manife-stations in the two groups were analyzed. T-test, nonparametric test, Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test-swere applied to compare datain subgroups.

Results:

A total of 148 PBC patients were involved in to our study, of which 45 cases (30.4%) had TD. PBC patients with TD showed a higher incidence of Sj?gren's synd- rome (SS) (33.3% vs 17.5%, χ2=4.545, P=0.033). Moreover, there was a higher positive rate of anti-SP100 and anti-SSB antibody in PBC patients with TD (20.0% vs 5.8%, χ2=5.440, P=0.020; 20.0% vs 2.9%, χ2=10.087, P=0.001) compared with patients without. PBC patients without TD presented a higher incidence of abdominal distension and jaundice (29.1% vs 11.1%, χ2=5.629, P=0.018; 23.3% vs 8.9%, χ2=4.241, P=0.039) compared to patients with TD. The ratio of patients with elevated total bilirubin (TBiL), direct bilirubin (DBiL), or increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was higher in PBC without TD group(40.8% vs 17.8%, χ2=7.405, P=0.007; 43.7% vs 17.8%, χ2=9.147, P=0.002; 69.9% vs 51.1%, χ2=4.811, P=0.028). Correspondingly, PBC patients without TD was associated with a higher probability of cirrhosis and portal hypertension (40.8% vs 22.2%, χ2=4.731, P=0.030; 25.2% vs 8.9%, χ2=5.183, P=0.023).

Conclusion:

TD has no effect on the natural history of PBC. PBC patients with TD are associated with a lower probability of liver fibrosis, portal hypertension and cholestasis symptoms but a higher incidence of SS when compared with PBC patients without TD. Multi-disciplinary approach should be implemented to the mag-nagement of PBC.
