Non-selective betablockers (NSBBs) reduce the risk of hepatic decompensation in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD), but metabolic co-morbidities (MetC) have an impact on the haemodynamic effects of NSBB and hepatic decompensation in cACLD patients.
Background: Non-selective betablockers (NSBBs) reduce the risk of hepatic decompensation in patients with compensated advanced chronic liver disease (cACLD). Metabolic co-morbidities (MetC) are increasingly observed in cACLD patients.Aims: To investigate the impact of MetC on the haemodynamic effects of NSBB and hepatic decompensation in cACLD.Methods: cACLD patients undergoing paired hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) measurements before/under NSBB therapy were retrospectively considered for this study. We recorded baseline characteristics on MetC (obesity, dyslipidaemia and diabetes), as well as hepatic decompensation and liver-related mortality during follow-up.Results: We included 92 patients (Child-A n = 80, 87%; Child-B n = 12, 13%). MetC were found in 34 (37%) patients: 19 (20.7%) with obesity, 14 (15.2%) with dyslipidaemia and 23 (34.8%) with diabetes. The median baseline HVPG of 18 (IQR:15-21) mmHg decreased to 15 (IQR:9-12) mmHg under NSBB. HVPG-response (decrease & GE;10% or to & LE;12 mmHg) was achieved in 60 (65.2.%) patients. Patients with diabetes (OR: 0.35, p = 0.021) and higher BMI (OR: 0.89 per kg/m(2), p = 0.031) were less likely to achieve HVPG-response.During a median follow-up of 2.3 (0.5-4.2) years, 18 (19.5%) patients experienced hepatic decompensation. Child-B (adjusted subdistribution hazard ratio, aSHR: 4.3 [95% CI:1.5-12.2], p = 0.006), HVPG-response (aSHR: 0.3 [95% CI:0.1-0.9], p = 0.037) and diabetes (aSHR: 2.8 [95% CI:1.1-7.2], p = 0.036) were independently associated with hepatic decompensation.Conclusions: In patients with cACLD, diabetes and a higher BMI impair the HVPG-response to NSBB. Furthermore, diabetes-independently from Child B and lack of HVPG-response-increases the risk of hepatic decompensation.
