About this study

to investigate the prevalence of hepatopulmonary syndrome in cirrhosis patients caused by Hepatitis B in western China

Read the detailed description

Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) occurs in approximately 4%-29% of cirrhotic patients and influences mortality. China has 100 million Hepatitis B virus (HBV) carriers and Chronic HBV infection is well-recognized risk factor for cirrhosis.But little is known about the prevalence of HPS in cirrhosis patients caused by HBV in western China. The aim of this study was to investigate the HPS incidence, and the signs, symptoms, arterial blood gas, and BMP9 in the serum of the patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. transthoracic contrast enhanced echocardiography (CEE)

    through the ultrasound to evaluate the imagine of cardiac cavity after intravenous injection of agitated saline

    Measured: During the operation

  2. arterial blood gas

    arterial blood gas analysis was performed through the radial artery.

    Measured: During the operation

  3. medical history

    The medical history was collected through consultation.

    Measured: During the operation

  4. acropachy

    acropachy was examined by inspection

    Measured: During the operation

  5. spider angioma

    spider angioma was examined by inspection

    Measured: During the operation

  6. liver palms

    liver palms was examined by inspection

    Measured: During the operation

  7. oxygen saturation

    oxygen saturation was examined by pulse oximetry

    Measured: During the operation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. the content of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP9) in the patients with and without HPS

    the content and expression of BMP9 were determined by immunohistochemistry.

    Measured: 4 to 6 months after the study completion

  2. micro ribonucleic acid 144 (miR144), micro ribonucleic acid 200 (miR200) in the patients with and without HPS

    the content and expression of BMP9 were determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

    Measured: 4 to 6 months after the study completion
