Popis: Abstract Background To date, there is an ongoing debate regarding the ability to predict PVT development using markers of FVIII or FVIII/PC ratio. This study presents evidence-based medical findings on the influence of FVIII activity levels and FVIII/PC values in the formation of PVT in cirrhosis. Methods The search for original studies on risk factors for portal vein thrombosis (PVT) associated with cirrhosis was conducted, which primarily focused on comparing circulating FVIII activity levels or FVIII/PC ratio in cirrhotic patients with and without PVT. The quality of evidence from each study was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Results The meta-analysis included a total of 10 original studies. In total, 2250 cirrhotic patients were included, with 414 having PVT and 1836 without PVT. The pooled analysis using a random-effects model showed no significant difference in standardized mean difference (SMD) for FVIII activity levels in cirrhotic patients with or without PVT (SMD = 0.12, 95% CI=-0.46 to 0.70, P = 0.68), but there was significant heterogeneity (I2 = 95.52%, P = 0.00). Meta-regression analysis indicated that differences in mean FVIII activity levels in the PVT group, the number of cases in the non-PVT group, and the study design methods partially contributed to the heterogeneity (P
