BACKGROUND: Diagnosing bacterial infections (BI) in patients with cirrhosis can be challenging because of unclear symptoms, low diagnostic accuracy, and lengthy culture testing times. Various biomarkers have been studied, including serum procalcitonin (PCT) and presepsin. However, the diagnostic performance of these markers remains unclear, requiring further informative studies to ascertain their diagnostic value.
AIM: To evaluate the pooled diagnostic performance of PCT and presepsin in detecting BI among patients with cirrhosis.
METHODS: We performed a systematic search of the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Scopus databases for studies that evaluated the diagnostic role of PCT and presepsin from inception to June 2024. Sensitivity and specificity values were pooled using a random effects model. BI was diagnosed based on clinical manifestations, physical examination, laboratory data, and radiological findings.
RESULTS: Of the 6639 articles retrieved, 28 met the inclusion criteria and included 4287 patients with 1789 cases of BI (41.7%). The bivariate pooled sensitivity and specificity estimates of PCT for BI diagnosis were 0.73 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.64-0.81] and 0.83 (95%CI: 0.79-0.87), respectively. The diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) of PCT was 17.21 (95%CI: 9.57-30.95). Presepsin showed a pooled sensitivity of 0.75 (95%CI: 0.60-0.86), specificity of 0.80 (95%CI: 0.68-0.88), and DOR of 12.33 (95%CI: 5.10-29.83) for diagnosing BI. The pooled sensitivity and specificity of PCT for diagnosing spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) were 0.76 (95%CI: 0.67-0.84) and 0.87 (95%CI: 0.78-0.92), respectively. The positive likelihood ratio of PCT was 5.57 (95%CI: 3.34-9.29), which was sufficiently indicative of SBP. The DOR of PCT was 29.50 (95%CI: 12.30-70.80).
CONCLUSION: PCT and presepsin have high sensitivity and specificity for detecting BI in patients with cirrhosis. Furthermore, PCT has good diagnostic value as a rule-in test for SBP diagnosis.
