OBJECTIVE:
The individual components of metabolic syndrome may be independent predictors of mortality in patients with liver disease. We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its related components in hepatitis C virus–infected patients who are not obese and do not have type 2 diabetes.METHODS:
This cross-sectional study included 125 patients infected with hepatitis C virus genotype 1. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the International Diabetes Federation. Anthropometric data were measured according to standardized procedures. Bioimpedance analysis was performed on all patients.RESULTS:
Metabolic syndrome was diagnosed in 21.6% of patients. Of the subjects with metabolic syndrome, 59.3% had hypertension, 77.8% had insulin resistance, 85.2% were overweight, 48.1% had a high waist circumference, 85.2% had an increased body fat percentage, and 92.3% had an elevated waist:hip ratio. In the bivariate analysis, female sex (OR 2.58; 95% CI: 1.09–6.25), elevated gamma-glutamyl transferase (γGT) (OR 2.63; 95% CI: 1.04–7.29), elevated fasting glucose (OR 8.05; 95% CI: 3.17-21.32), low HDL cholesterol (OR 2.80; 95% CI: 1.07–7.16), hypertriglyceridemia (OR 7.91; 95% CI: 2.88–22.71), elevated waist circumference (OR 10.33; 95% CI: 3.72–30.67), overweight (OR 11.33; 95% CI: 3.97–41.07), and increased body fat percentage (OR 8.34; 95% CI: 2.94–30.08) were independent determinants of metabolic syndrome. Using the final multivariate regression model, similar results were observed for abdominal fat (OR 9.98; 95% CI: 2.63–44.41) and total body fat percentage (OR 8.73; 95% CI: 2.33–42.34). However, metabolic syndrome risk was also high for those with blood glucose ≥5.55 mmol/L or HDL cholesterol <0.9 mmol/L (OR 16.69; 95% CI: 4.64–76.35; OR 7.23; 95% CI: 1.86–32.63, respectively).CONCLUSION:
Metabolic syndrome is highly prevalent among hepatitis C virus–infected patients without type 2 diabetes or obesity. Metabolic syndrome was significantly associated with hypertension, insulin resistance, increased abdominal fat, and overweight. 相似文献2.

Although progression of fibrosis in the chronic hepatitis C depends on environmental, viral, and host factors, genetic polymorphisms have been associated recently with this progression, including the expression of integrins, adhesion proteins. Some integrins expressed on the platelet membrane show polymorphic antigenic determinants called human platelet antigens (HPA), where the major ones are HPA‐1, ‐3, ‐5. The association between HCV infection and HPA‐5b has been demonstrated. Similarly, the HPA profile could determine if HPA is related to progression of fibrosis. The goal of this study was to evaluate the association between the frequencies of HPA‐1, ‐3, and ‐5 and degree of fibrosis in HCV‐infected patients. Genomic DNA from 143 HCV‐infected patients was used as the source for HPA genotyping by PCR‐SSP or PCR‐RFLP. Progression of fibrosis was evaluated using the METAVIR scoring system, and the patients were grouped according to degree of fibrosis into G1 (n = 81, with F1, portal fibrosis without septa or F2, few septa) and G2 (n = 62, with F3, numerous septa, or F4, cirrhosis). Statistical analysis was performed using the proportional odds model. The genotypic frequency of HPA‐1a/1b was significantly higher in the patients in G2. To evaluate the influence of the time of infection to the development of fibrosis and its effect on the genetic factor HPA‐1, 96 patients from 143 studied were evaluated considering the time of HCV infection, and these results suggest that the HPA‐1a/1b genotype promotes the development of fibrosis in HCV infection with time.

PurposeHepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains a major health problem and one of the leading causes of chronic liver disease worldwide. The purpose of this paper was to summarize knowledge about the epidemiology of HCV genotype (GT) 4 infection, similarities and differences with other genotypes, specific problems associated with this genotype, and treatment regimens used to treat GT4-infected patients.MethodsWe performed an accurate search for literature using the PubMed database to select high-quality reviews and original articles concerning this topic.ResultsGT4 with a global prevalence of 8% takes third place, closing the global HCV podium in terms of frequency. However, there are regions where GT4 infections are dominant, such as sub-Saharan and North Africa, and the Middle East. The disease course and complications are generally similar to those of chronic hepatitis C caused by other genotypes, although the faster progression of fibrosis was demonstrated in patients with coexisting schistosomiasis. In the era of interferon-based therapy, GT4-infected patients were described as difficult to treat due to suboptimal response. A breakthrough in the treatment of HCV-infected patients, including those with GT4 infection, was the introduction of direct-acting antiviral drugs.ConclusionsThe availability of safe and effective therapy has created a real opportunity for HCV eradication in line with the goal set by the World Health Organization. An example of a country where this is happening is Egypt, where GT4 accounts for more than 90% of HCV infections. There, broad access to therapy has been effectively supported by population-based screening. 相似文献

The subversion of immune responses that hepatitis C virus (HCV) uses to escape immune surveillance and to establish persistent infection has been poorly understood. The immune-suppressive molecule human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) has been supposed to play important roles in viral infection. In the current study, HCV genotype was analyzed in 67 chronic HCV-infected (CHC) patients. Plasma soluble sHLA-G (including sHLA-G1 and HLA-G5), interleukin-10 (IL-10), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) levels were determined in these CHC patients and in healthy subjects by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and the sHLA-G isoforms present in plasma were determined by Western blot. Data showed that HCV 1b was the predominant genotype, with a prevalence of 64.2%. sHLA-G was dramatically increased in CHC patients (median: 85.54 U/ml, range: 19.40-204.07) over that in normal controls (median: 9.13 U/ml, range: 5.07-69.56) (p < 0.001). Western blotting revealed that plasma sHLA-G was derived from sHLA-G1 and HLA-G5. IL-10 and IFN-γ levels were also significant higher in CHC patients than in normal controls (median: 16.3 pg/ml vs 1.8 pg/ml, p < 0.001, and 1025.3 pg/ml vs 858.3 pg/ml, p = 0.03, respectively). No significant association was observed for the HCV genotype and viral RNA load with the levels of sHLA-G, IL-10, and IFN-γ in CHC patients. These results indicate that elevation of sHLA-G expression in HCV patients was independent of viral genotype and viral RNA load. Given its immunotolerant property, an increase in sHLA-G may play a role in the persistency of HCV infection. 相似文献

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has infected more than 200 million people around the globe. From 2001-2011, interferon plus ribavirin remained the standard of care for patients with HCV infection. The therapy had a limited response with a number of side effects. Recently, results for phase III trials of ledipasvir and sofosbuvir combination therapy have been announced. In treatment naïve patients, 12 wk of therapy with ledipasvir and sofosbuvir showed a sustained virological response (SVR) rate of 99%. In treatment experienced patients, 12-24 wk of therapy with ledipasvir and sofosbuvir in the absence or presence of ribavirin showed an SVR rate of 94%-99%. In cirrhotic patients the rate of SVR was 86% and 99% for 12 and 24 wk of therapy, respectively. The ledipasvir and sofosbuvir therapy showed very good results in different subgroups of patients regardless of patient’s race, alanine aminotransferase levels, sex and host genetic factors. The combination therapy was well tolerated with no emergence of resistant mutants. The most common adverse effects were nausea, headache and fatigue. With the availability of interferon free therapy with minimal adverse effects, it will be easy to decrease the future morbidity and mortality caused by HCV infection. 相似文献

Treatments for chronic hepatitis C has evolved significantly in the past 15 years. The standard of care (SOC) is peginterferon alfa-2a/-2b with ribavirin for 48 weeks or 24 weeks in patients infected with HCV genotype 1 or 2/3, respectively. The treatment duration can be individualized based on the baseline viral load and the speed of the virologic response during treatment. However, current therapies are associated with side effects, complications, and poor patient tolerability. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify better strategies for treating this disease. An improved sustained virologic response (SVR) can be achieved with new HCV-specific inhibitors against NS3/4A and NS5B polymerases. Recent trials have found SVR rates in patients with HCV genotype 1 infection of 61~68% and 67~75% for combining the SOC with the protease inhibitors telaprevir and boceprevir, respectively. Several new HCV-specific inhibitors such as protease inhibitors and nucleoside and non-nucleoside polymerase inhibitors as well as non-HCV-specific compounds with anti-HCV activity are currently in clinical evaluation. In this review we discuss these new treatments for chronic hepatitis C. 相似文献

Abstract Chronic infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a leading cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality throughout the
world. Although reliable figures regarding the global prevalence of HCV infection are wanting, it is likely that HCV prevalence
will continue to increase. Injection drug use is the most important source of HCV transmission in the developed world, while
unsafe therapeutic injection is an important source of transmission in developing nations. The majority of exposed individuals
become chronically infected, of whom 50% develop chronic liver injury. Cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma can arise in
those chronically infected over a mean of 20–30 years. Despite this high prevalence and morbidity, recommendations regarding
who to screen by antibody testing remain disparate. Quantitative measurement of HCV RNA and HCV genotyping is useful in predicting
response to antiviral therapy. Noninvasive methods of detecting liver injury, such as serologic batteries, have not been as
informative or predictable as liver biopsy. The current pharmacologic standard of care for chronic HCV infection is the combination
of subcutaneous peginterferon and oral ribavirin, which yields sustained virologic response in 54%–56%. Higher rates of SVR
are seen in those patients who are infected with HCV genotypes 2 and 3. As intravenous drug use remains the most important
source of HCV transmission in the US and Europe, education within this group is an important preventive tool. 相似文献

Genetic host factors influence the progression of hepatitis C infection (HCV). Chemokines play important roles in HCV-induced liver fibrosis. Recently, a single nucleotide polymorphism in the Duffy antigen receptor for chemokines (DARC) was identified which strongly determines the serum concentrations of pivotal pro-fibrotic chemokines, including CCL2. We here tested the hypothesis that this genetic variant (rs12075 A/G) is a risk factor for liver fibrosis in HCV infection. Overall, 880 patients with HCV from three cohorts and 108 controls were genotyped for rs12075. Although serum CCL2 levels were associated with early liver fibrosis, rs12075 itself was not associated with HCV infection or the severity of liver disease in any of the cohorts. The lack of association was evident in qualitative and quantitative analysis despite sufficient statistical power. We conclude that gene variations that strongly determine serum concentrations of chemokines are not necessarily risk markers of the disease traits in which these molecules play pathophysiological roles. 相似文献
