To investigate the association between serum complement 5a (C5a) concentration and liver fibrosis and cirrhosis in a large cohort of patients chronically infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV). Five hundred and eight patients with chronic HBV infection undergoing liver biopsy were included. Serum concentrations of C5a was measured by Luminex screening system. Ishak histological system was obtained. C5a levels were negatively associated with liver fibrosis stages and significantly declined in patients with severe fibrosis and cirrhosis (P < 0.001). Multiple analysis showed C5a, AST, laminin, Co-IV, platelet count, albumin, HBsAg associated with liver fibrosis independently. Based on the markers above, we created two scores, Fib-model for significant fibrosis and Cirrh-model for earlier cirrhosis. Fib-model was performing better to differentiate from significant fibrosis, with an AUROC of 0.82 (95 % CI 0.78, 0.86), in comparison to existed models APRI, FIB-4 and Forns’ index with AUROCs of 0.71 (95 % CI 0.66, 0.76), 0.72 (95 % CI 0.67, 0.77), 0.77 (95 % CI 0.72, 0.81), respectively. Although, Cirrh-model showed AUROC of 0.85 (95 % CI 0.80, 0.91) for evaluation of earlier cirrhosis, superior to APRI, and Forns’ index, C5a + FIB-4 performed best with an AUROC of 0.94 (95 % CI 0.90, 0.97). In patients with chronic HBV infection, serum C5a concentration significantly decreased in severe fibrosis stages and earlier cirrhosis. Fib-model and C5a + FIB-4 performed better than existed models for assessment of significant fibrosis and earlier cirrhosis, respectively.
