To investigate the risk and influencing factors of long-term liver adverse events in chronic hepatitis B patients achieving hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)clearance after pegylated interferonα(Peg-IFNα)treatment,...To investigate the risk and influencing factors of long-term liver adverse events in chronic hepatitis B patients achieving hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)clearance after pegylated interferonα(Peg-IFNα)treatment,a retrospective analysis was conducted on 456 patients at Beijing Ditan Hospital from 2008 to 2023 who achieved HBsAg clearance and discontinued Peg-IFNαtreatment.The baseline was defined as the time of HBsAg clearance and treatment cessation.The endpoint was the first occurrence of liver adverse events(hepatocellular carcinoma or ascites)or last follow-up.Subsequently,we evaluated the incidence and risk factors of liver adverse events,along with changes in liver fibrosis,cirrhosis,and liver function indicators.During a median follow-up of 70 months,the incidence of liver adverse events was 2.30%,hepatocellular carcinoma 1.76%,and ascites 0.55%.Older age and cirrhosis were significant risk factors(HR 1.075 and 41.393,both P<0.01).The APRI score significantly improved at follow-up compared to baseline(0.53 vs.0.25,P<0.001),and cirrhosis prevalence decreased from 5.70%to 0.88%(P<0.001).In conclusion,patients who achieved HBsAg clearance and discontinued Peg-IFNαtreatment have a low risk of liver adverse events,while advanced age and cirrhosis remain major risk factors.展开更多
