Risk factor for PTLD after liver transplantation
Considering the influence of confounding factors on the results of
single-factor analysis, factors, such as EBV infection, tacrolimus
concentration, ALT, AST, PLT, and CHOL, should be further analyzed by
multivariate logistic regression analysis.
The results showed that EBV infection was an independent risk factor for
PTLD (P<0.05). Tacrolimus concentration, ALT, AST, PLT, and
CHOL had varying degrees of difference in the incidence of PTLD;
however, no statistical differences were identified
(P>0.05) (Table 4).
