Prevalence and risk factors of cholelithiasis in patients with spinal cord injury: A cross-sectional analysis

Patients with SCI have a higher incidence of gallstones. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the occurrence of cholelithiasis in patients with SCI is closely related to age, marital status, blood glucose level and motor function preservation. Tailored preventive and therapeutic approaches should be developed for SCI patients, with intensified monitoring and intervention for high-risk patients to significantly improve quality of life.

Abstract

Patients with SCI have a higher incidence of gallstones. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the occurrence of cholelithiasis in patients with SCI is closely related to age, marital status, blood glucose level and motor function preservation. Tailored preventive and therapeutic approaches should be developed for SCI patients, with intensified monitoring and intervention for high-risk patients to significantly improve quality of life.
