BACKGROUND: Women systematically experience lower rates of liver transplantation (LT) and higher rates of waitlist mortality than men. Self-rated health has been associated with patient outcomes in the global population. We, therefore, assessed gender differences in self-rated and clinician-rated health among LT candidates.
METHODS: Ambulatory LT candidates without hepatocellular carcinoma were enrolled from 2012 to 2018. Participants and their hepatologists were asked separately to rate the participant's overall general health on a 6-point scale (0="excellent" to 5="very poor"). Logistic regression was used to assess the associations between covariates and superior self-assessment, defined as 1 SD above the mean self-assessment score.
RESULTS: Of 855 participants, the median (interquartile range) self-rated health score was 2 (1-3); 156 (18%) were categorized as superior self-rated health. The correlation between self-rated and clinician-rated health was positive (Spearman's rho 0.3, P<0.001). In univariate analysis, being a woman was associated with lower odds of superior self-rated health (OR 0.7, 95% CI 0.5-1.0, P=0.04), which persisted on multivariable analysis (aOR 0.7, 95% CI 0.4-1.0, P=0.05), controlling for race, frailty, work status, comorbidities, Model for End-Stage Liver Disease-Na, hepatic encephalopathy, and ascites.
CONCLUSION: These findings highlight the need for well-designed quality-based research to determine how our patients perceive health to highlight opportunities to offer more comprehensive, quality-based care.
