Trial summary

The aim of this study was to investigate whether NETs markers can enhance procoagulant activity and predict portal vein thrombosis in patients with live cirrhosis, so as to establish a novel predictor to guide clinical decision-making.So we recruit liver cirrhosis with portal vein thrombosis and without portal vein… Read more about this study

About this study

The aim of this study was to investigate whether NETs markers can enhance procoagulant activity and predict portal vein thrombosis in patients with live cirrhosis, so as to establish a novel predictor to guide clinical decision-making.So we recruit liver cirrhosis with portal vein thrombosis and without portal vein thrombosis treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University and collection of blood samples.

Read the detailed description

Seventy-nine patients with benign liver cirrhosis treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University (China) from September 2020 to January 2021 were recruited for this study, including 26 patients with portal vein thrombosis and 53 patients without portal vein thrombosis. NETs markers (Myeloperoxidase, Neutrophil elastase, Citrate histone H3), tissue factor, endotoxin, factor X, TAT complex, and anti-β2 glycoprotein I were detected in plasma using capture ELISA and specific ELISA kits. T-test was performed to analyze whether there was a statistical difference between the two groups, and regression analysis was performed between NETs markers and tissue factor, endotoxin, factor X, TAT complex, and anti-β2 glycoprotein I to investigate whether there was a correlation. This study without any intervention measures, will not cause harm.

PVT group(1) Patients with cirrhosis diagnosed in accordance with the 2019 Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Cirrhosis;(2) In accordance with the diagnostic criteria of portal vein thrombosis in the 2015 European Society of Hepatology Clinical Practice Guidelines: Hepatic Vascular Diseases. Color ultrasound, CT, MRI, and other imaging studies confirmed the presence of portal vein thrombosis and the specific location of the thrombosis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Concentration of NETs markers

    NETs markers (Myeloperoxidase, Neutrophil elastase, Citrate histone H3), tissue factor, endotoxin, factor X, TAT complex, and anti-β2 glycoprotein I were detected in plasma using capture ELISA and specific ELISA kits.

    Measured: 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation and Portal Vein Thrombosis, run by The Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Concentration of NETs markers (time frame: 1 year.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Aug 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
