To study the dynamic of liver fibrosis in cirrhotic patients with a DAAs-induced sustained virological response (SVR).</p></sec><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p>Materials and methods. The retrospective cohort study included 80 cirrhotic patients (male — 43%, median age 54 years). Liver stiffness (LS) was measured by transient elastography before treatment and after SVR. Patients with LS improvement ≥30% were included in group 1, other patients — in group 2. Clinical, laboratory and instrumental parameters were assessed. Independent risk factors for the absence of LS improvement ≥30% were determined by binary logistic regression with the definition of odds ration (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI).</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. LS reduced from 21.35 (15.2; 27.7) to 13.5 [10.1; 20.0] kPa (p &lt; 0.001), the median reduction was 5.1 [2.6; 11.0] kPa. Regression of fibrosis from F4 to F2 and F3 stages was observed in 16 (20%) and 19 (24%) of cases, respectively. Overall, 36 patients were included in group 1, 44 patients — in group 2. Platelet counts increased in group 1 compared to group 2 by 24.5% vs 5.2% (p = 0.014), a disappearance or reducing the size of esophageal varices were observed in 72% vs. 35% of cases (p = 0.035). Significant differences in ALT, AST, albumin, prothrombin time dynamics were not observed. Baseline albumin level ≤35 g/l is an independent risk factor for the absence of significant improvement of LS: OR 6.7 (95% CI 1.7–25.9, p = 0.006).</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. SVR leads to fibrosis regression to F2-F3 stages in 44% of patients.

В ретроспективное когортное исследование включены 80 пациентов с ЦП-ХГС (мужчины 43%, медиана возраста 54). Эластичность печени (ЭП) определяли методом транзиентной эластометрии до лечения и после достижения УВО. Пациенты, достигшие снижения ЭП ≥30% (выраженное улучшение), включены в группу 1, остальные — в группу 2. Оценивали клинические, инструментальные и лабораторные данные. Независимые факторы риска отсутствия снижения ЭП ≥30% устанавливали методом бинарной логистической регрессии: рассчитано отношение шансов (ОШ) и 95% доверительный интервал (ДИ).</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. В общей группе установлено статистически значимое снижение ЭП с 21,35 [15,2; 27,7] до 13,5 [10,1; 20,0] кПа (p &lt; 0,001); медиана снижения составила 5,1 [2,6; 11,0] кПа. У 16 (20%) и 19 (24%) пациентов с исходным F4 отмечен регресс фиброза до стадии F2 и F3 соответственно. В группу 1 включены 36, в группу 2 — 44 пациента. В группе 1 по сравнению с группой 2 количество тромбоцитов увеличилось на 25% vs. 5% (р = 0,014), исчезновение или уменьшение размеров ВРВП отмечалось в 72% vs. 35% (p = 0,035). Значимых различий в динамике АЛТ, АСТ, альбумина, ПТИ не установлено. Уровень альбумина ≤35 г/л до лечения определен как независимый фактор риска отсутствия выраженного улучшения ЭП: ОШ = 6,7 (95% ДИ 1,7–25,9, р = 0,006)</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Достижение УВО сопровождается регрессом фиброза печени до F2-F3 стадии у 44% пациентов.
