摘要
目的探讨急、慢性乙型肝炎及与HBV感染相关的肝硬变和肝癌患者血清HBVDNA的临床意义.方法应用PCR技术检测不同HBV感染205例,患者血清HBVDNA,并与正常人20例作比较.结果HBV感染患者205例血清HBVDNA阳性率为693%,慢性乙肝、乙肝后肝硬变和肝癌患者的阳性率分别为764%,719%和700%,显著高于急性乙肝患者217%的阳性率(P<001);HBeAg(+)患者血清HBVDNA阳性率为936%,显著高于HBeAg(-)抗HBe(+)/(-)和HBsAg(-)患者的阳性率(456%,250%和125%,P<001);血清HBVDNA阳性和阴性两组患者的血清ALT水平无明显差异(P>005).结论血清中HBVDNA持续存在可能与乙型肝炎的慢性化有关。
AIM To study the clinical significance of HBV DNA detection in sera of patients with acute hepatitis B (AHB) and chronic hepatitis B (CHB) associated with liver cirrhosis (LC) and primary hepatocellular carcinoma (PHC). METHODS HBV DNA in sera of 205 patients with HBV infection was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). RESULTS The positive rate of HBV DNA in the 205 cases of HBV infection was 69 3%. The positive rates of HBV DNA in patients with CHB (76 4%), LC (71 9%) and PHC (70 0%) were markedly higher than in patients with AHB (21 7%), ( P <0 01); and were significantly higher in patients with positive HBeAg (93 6%) than in patients with negative HBeAg, positive or negative anti-HBe and negative HBsAg (45 6%, 25 0% and 12 5%), ( P <0 01). There was no difference in the serum ALT levels between the patients with serum positive and negative HBV DNA ( P >0 05). CONCLUSION Chronicity of HBV infection might be correlated with the persitent existence of serum HBV DNA, but not significantly related to the liver damage of patients with HBV infection.
