Abstract

Severe alcoholic hepatitis is associated with high early mortality. This study aimed at identifying prognostic factors associated with in-hospital, medium- and long-term mortality of severe alcoholic hepatitis and to evaluate the different prognostic scoring systems on a cohort of patients in our hospital. To this end, we conducted a retrospective analysis of 66 episodes admitted between 2000 and 2008. Clinical and laboratory data on admission, at 7 days, 1 month, 6 months, and after one year were collected and analyzed, as were the details on the treatment and complications that occurred during hospitalization; the different prognostic indices used in the literature were calculated. Death event associated with an episode of severe alcoholic hepatitis occurs primarily during the first month, with an average mortality rate of 16.9. Infectious complications were associated with lower in-hospital survival. MELD score, urea and bilirubin values one week after admission were independently associated with both in-hospital survival (OR = 1.14, 1.012 and 1.1, respectively), and survival at 6 months (OR = 1, 15; 1.014 and 1.016, respectively). Only MELD score and urea values at 7 days were independent predictors of survival twelve months after the acute hepatitis episode. MELD score, urea, and bilirubin 7 days after admission were the only independent in-hospital survival and also long-term survival factors 6 months and one year after the episode. In our cohort, the MELD score was the best prognostic index to predict mortality associated with an episode of severe alcoholic hepatitis.

Abstract

The aim of the abstracts presented at scientific meetings is their publication in a peer-review journal. In this study, we analysed the publication rates of the abstracts submitted to the 24th AEEH meeting (1999) and also to see if this was stable over time.We assessed the publication rates of the abstracts presented at the 24th AEEH meeting in journals included in MEDLINE. As a comparison tool, we did the same with the abstracts submitted to the 34th Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL). The same procedure was carried out on the three subsequent editions of AEEH meetings to evaluate the continuity in the long term.Of the abstracts submitted at the 24th AEEH meeting, 52.8% (93/176) were published: 71.4% of those had been accepted for oral presentation, 54% as a poster and 41% were non-accepted abstracts. From the 34th EASL Annual Meeting, 27.1% (248/913) of the submitted abstracts were published (p0.001 compared to AEEH), 52.5% of those were accepted for oral communication, 33.1% accepted as a poster communication and 18.1% from non-accepted abstracts. Moreover, this high publication rate of the abstracts of AEEH meeting at 1999, was maintained during the following three years (47.55 and 54%, respectively).a) The publication rate of abstracts presented at 24th AEEH meeting was excellent and superior in comparison to the EASL rate of the same year; b) almost three quarters of abstracts accepted for oral presentation and more than half of those accepted as a poster were finally published, and c) high publication rates seem to be maintained over time.
