Prognostic Value of Liver Fibrotic Markers in Patients With Heart Failure

Several liver fibrotic markers are associated with prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF). However, the optimal markers for outcome prediction remain unclear. This study aimed to simultaneously investigate the prognostic value of liver fibrotic markers and the associations between these markers and clinical parameters in patients with HF without organic liver disease. We prospectively examined 211 consecutive patients with chronic HF between April 2018 and August 2021, excluding those with organic liver disease, using liver magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound. A total of 7 representative liver fibrotic markers were measured in all patients. The primary outcome of interest was the composite of all-cause death and hospitalization for worsening HF. During a median follow-up period of 747 (interquartile range 465 to 1,042) days, the primary outcome occurred in 45 patients. Patients with higher hyaluronic acid and type III procollagen N-terminal peptide (P-III-P) levels showed a significantly higher incidence of the primary outcome than those without (p <0.001 and p = 0.005, respectively). The multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that hyaluronic acid and P-III-P levels were independently associated with the risk of adverse events (hazard ratio 1.84, 95% confidence interval 1.18 to 2.87 and hazard ratio 2.89, 95% confidence interval 1.32 to 6.34, respectively) even after adjustment for a mortality prediction model, whereas the other 5 markers were not associated with the primary outcome. In conclusion, among the representative liver fibrotic markers, hyaluronic acid and P-III-P might be the optimal markers for outcome prediction in patients with HF.
