Previous studies in patients with acute liver failure identified acetaminophen (APAP) protein adducts in the serum of 12% and 19% of children and adults, respectively, with acute liver failure of indeterminate etiology. This report details APAP adducts testing in a subset (n=393) of patients with varied diagnoses in the Pediatric Acute Liver Failure Study Group (PALFSG). Serum samples were available from 393 participants included in the PALFSG registry. Adducts measurement was performed using validated methods. Participants were grouped by diagnostic category as known APAP overdose, known other diagnosis and indeterminate etiology. Demographic and clinical characteristics and participant outcomes were compared by adducts status (positive or negative) within each group. APAP adducts testing was positive in 86% of participants with known APAP overdose, 6% with other known diagnoses and 11% with an indeterminate cause of liver failure. Adducts positive participants were noted to have marked elevation of serum alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase coupled with total serum bilirubin that was significantly lower than adducts negative patients. In the indeterminate group, adducts positive patients had different outcomes than adducts negative patients (p=0.03), spontaneous survival was 16/21 (76%) in adducts positive versus 75/169 (44%) in adducts negative patients. Prognosis did not vary by adducts status in patients with known diagnoses. Further study is needed to understand the relationship of APAP exposure, as determined by the presence of APAP adducts, to the clinical phenotype and outcomes of children with acute liver failure.
