What is Analysis of Related Factors of Portal Vein Thrombosis in Liver Cirrhosis about?

Abstract Background and aims To investigate the usefulness of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), protein C (PC), and thromboelastography (TEG) to serve as a predictor of portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in patients with liver cirrhosis. Additionally, we examined the clinical significance of the above indicators in terms of disease progression. Methods A total of 123 patients with liver cirrhosis were recruited from May 2021 to December 2021, according to the imaging findings. They were divided into the PVT group (n = 52) and the non-PVT group (n = 71). Furthermore, patients with PVT were divided into plasma transfusion groups (n = 13) and non-plasma transfusion groups (n = 39). The basic general information, past medical history, laboratory, and imaging examination data were collected and analyzed. Results In univariate analysis, there was no significant difference between the two groups in IL-6, PC, reaction time (R), alpha angle (Angle), maximum amplitude, or coagulation index (CI) (P > 0.05). TNF-α in the PVT group was significantly lower than that in the non-PVT group (P = 0.001). K-time (K) in the PVT group was significantly higher than that in the non-PVT
