Brief Summary

Liver transplantation is the primary intervention for decompensated chronic liver diseases and some cases of hepatocellular carcinoma. This study aims to examine long-term mortality after liver transplantation and identify related risk factors in the modern immunosuppression era, using a French multicenter cohort. This study does not interfere with patients' medical care. The study method involves collecting and analyzing only the essential data from patient records.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Long-term mortality rates

    Evaluation of overall mortality rates among liver transplant recipients, measured from the time of transplantation until the end of the follow-up period.

    1 year, 5 years, and 10 years post-transplant, as well as at the last follow-up

  • Risk factors for mortality

    Identification of pre- and post-transplant risk factors associated with long-term mortality in liver transplant recipients. Risk factors include demographics (age, sex), comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases), and transplant-specific factors (MELD score, graft function).

    1 year, 5 years, and 10 years post-transplant, as well as at the last follow-up

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Demographic analysis of transplant recipients

    Baseline demographic analysis at 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years post-transplant, as well as at the last follow-up

  • Factors influencing mortality rates

    1 year, 5 years, and 10 years post-transplant, as well as at the last follow-up

  • Progression of mortality risk factors

    1 year, 5 years, and 10 years post-transplant, as well as at the last follow-up

  • Mortality rates

    1 year and 5 years post-transplant

  • Liver transplant-specific risk factors

    1 year, 5 years, and 10 years post-transplant, as well as at the last follow-up

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Liver transplant patients

Liver transplant patients from all French centers between 2008 and 2013 and followed up during the period 2008-2023.

Other: Collection of medical data

Interventions

A randomised selection of files to be analyzed will be conducted in each center to constitute a representative sample of liver transplanted patients. This represents 20% of the number of transplanted patients over the period 2008-2013 in the center, allowing a more in-depth analysis of the patients' medical records.
