Risk factors for the metabolic syndrome components of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia after living donor liver transplantation
2019
Abstract Background Metabolic syndrome (MS) is the most common long-term complication after liver transplantation, and it has been increasing in incidence. The aim of this study was to clarify the risk factors for each MS component -hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia-after living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT), including characteristics of living-donors. Methods Data related to clinicopathological parameters including MS components in 461 consecutive patients who underwent LDLT were analyzed retrospectively. Results Prevalence of all MS components (hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia) increased from 9.3%, 16.5%, and 7.2% before LDLT to 44.9%, 45.3%, and 50.8% after LDLT, respectively. By multivariate logistic regression analysis, the three factors, cyclosporine use (OR 2.086, P = 0.001), recipient age (OR 1.036, P = 0.001), and BMI (OR 1.072, P = 0.026) were independent predictors for post-LDLT hypertension. Next, the three factors, male recipient (OR 2.471, P Conclusions Not only recipient-related factors but also donor-related factors were independently associated with each targeted post-LDLT MS component.
