摘要: 慢加急性肝衰竭(ACLF)是一种复杂的临床综合征,早期识别和准确评估预后对于患者的治疗和管理至关重要。近年来,随着对ACLF发病机制的深入研究,多种预后标志物被提出并应用于临床实践。本文从临床预测模型、免疫标志物、代谢标志物、遗传和表观遗传标志物、微生态相关标志物以及新兴技术如人工智能和多组学等方面,系统综述了ACLF预后标志物的研究进展,探讨了不同标志物在ACLF预后评估中的价值和应用前景,并提出了未来的研究方向。旨在为临床医生提供科学、全面的参考依据,以更好地指导ACLF患者的个体化治疗和管理,最终改善患者的临床转归。Abstract: Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a complex clinical syndrome, and early identification and accurate prognostic evaluation are of great importance for patient treatment and management. In recent years, with in-depth research on the pathogenesis of ACLF, multiple prognostic biomarkers have been proposed and used in clinical practice. This article systematically reviews the research advances in prognostic biomarkers for ACLF from the aspects of clinical predictive models, immunological biomarkers, metabolic biomarkers, genetic and epigenetic biomarkers, microbiome-related biomarkers, and emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and multi-omics, and it also discusses the value and application prospects of these biomarkers in the prognostic evaluation of ACLF and proposes future research directions, in order to provide a scientific and comprehensive reference for clinicians, guide individualized treatment and management of ACLF patients, and finally improve the clinical outcomes of patients.
