ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationships between gestational hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, antiviral therapy, and pregnancy outcomes. METHODS: We retrospectively selected hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive pregnant women hospitalized for delivery at Fujian Medical University Affiliated Hospital from October 1, 2016 to October 1, 2020. The control group included randomly selected healthy pregnant women hospitalized for delivery during the same time. RESULTS: Overall, 1115 participants were enrolled and grouped into control (n = 380) and HBsAg-positive groups (n = 735), which were further divided into groups I (n = 407; low viral load), II (n = 207; high viral load without antiviral therapy), and III (n = 121; high viral load with antiviral therapy). Pregnant women with HBV were positively correlated with the incidence of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 5.1, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.62-9.92, P < 0.001), neonatal jaundice (aOR 10.56, 95% CI 4.49-24.83, P < 0.001), and neonatal asphyxia (aOR 5.03, 95% CI 1.46-17.27, P = 0.01). Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) greater than the upper limit of normal (ULN) was an independent risk factor for increased ICP incidence (aOR 3.49, 95% CI 1.26-9.67, P = 0.019). Antiviral therapy considerably reduced HBV DNA and improved liver function. High viral load and antiviral therapy did not correlate significantly with adverse pregnancy outcomes (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Pregnant women with HBV have significantly elevated incidence of ICP, neonatal jaundice, and neonatal asphyxia not significantly correlated with viral load. AST greater than ULN independently increases the risk of ICP. Antiviral therapy effectively reduces viral replication and improves liver function without increasing the risk of adverse outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Purpose: Early detection of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP) with exacerbation tendency is crucial for clinical decision-making and improving prognosis. The aim of this study was to establish a reliable model for the early prediction of HLAP severity. Patients and Methods: A total of 225 patients with first-episode HLAP who were admitted to Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from June 2012 to June 2023 were included. Patients were divided into mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) or moderate-severe acute pancreatitis and severe acute pancreatitis (MSAP+SAP) groups. Independent predictors for progression to MSAP or SAP were identified through univariate analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression. A nomogram was established through multivariate logistic regression analysis to predict this progression. The calibration, receiver operating characteristic(ROC), and clinical decision curves were employed to evaluate the model's consistency, differentiation, and clinical applicability. Clinical data of 93 patients with first-episode HLAP who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from October 2015 to October 2022 were collected for external validation. Results: White blood cell count, lactate dehydrogenase, albumin, serum creatinine, serum calcium, D-Dimer were identified as independent predictors for progression to MSAP or SAP in patients with HLAP and used to establish a predictive nomogram. The internally verified Harrell consistency index (C-index) was 0.908 (95% CI 0.867-0.948) and the externally verified C-index was 0.950 (95% CI 0.910-0.990). The calibration, ROC, and clinical decision curves showed this nomogram's good predictive ability. Conclusion: We have established a nomogram that can help identify HLAP patients who are likely to develop MSAP or SAP at an early stage, with high discrimination and accuracy.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The effect of hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication during pregnancy on the outcomes of pregnancies remains to be elucidated. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the association between HBV replication and adverse maternal and infant outcomes. METHODS: We retrospectively analysed the clinical data of 836 pregnant inpatients with hepatitis B surface antigen positivity who delivered at two provincial tertiary grade A hospitals in the Fujian province between June 2016 and October 2020. RESULTS: The incidence of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, hypertensive syndrome complicating pregnancy, gestational diabetes mellitus, preterm birth, macrosomia, growth restriction, and vaginal infections did not differ in the HBV replication and non-replication groups (p > 0.05); however, the rates of caesarean section (p = 0.017; OR, 1.423; 95% CI, 1.065-1.902) and neonatal jaundice (p < 0.001; OR, 2.361; 95% CI, 1.498-3.721) were higher in the replication group than that in the non-replication group. After using propensity score analysis to adjust for alanine transaminase and aspartate aminotransferase levels in both groups, the replication group was still found to have an increased risk for caesarean section (p < 0.001; OR, 2.367; 95% CI, 1.668-3.359) and their infants had higher rates of neonatal jaundice (p < 0.001; OR, 12.605; 95% CI, 4.456-35.656). CONCLUSIONS: Our findings contribute to a better understanding of the association between maternal HBV replication status and perinatal outcomes. Pregnant women with HBV replication face an increased risk of caesarean section, and their infants appear to have a higher risk for neonatal jaundice.
