Hepatitis B virus infection in patients with metabolic syndrome: A complicated relationship. Results of a population based study
Original language description
Background: The presence of hepatitis B infection (HBI) and metabolic syndrome (MS) at the same time constitutes a high risk for liver cirrhosis and potentially hepatocellular carcinoma. Aim: In this study we aim to explore the relationship between MS and HBI. Methods: We used data from the cross-sectional HepaMeta study conducted in 2011 in Slovakia. Patients were tested for presence of MS, while lipid levels (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, TG, apolipoprotein B100 and HBI (HBsAg and antiHBcIgG)) were also monitored. Viral load was measured in HBsAg positive patients. Results: Altogether 855 patients were screened, MS was diagnosed in 25.1% of patients and 7.9% of patients presented with HBI. AntiHBcIgG antibodies were present in 34.6% patients. HBI patients had lower levels of total and LDL cholesterol along with a decreased apolipoprotein B100 (4.54 +/- 0.84 vs. 5.0 +/- 0.99 mmol/l, P = 0.001; 2.29 +/- 0.58 vs. 2.6 +/- 0.68 mmol/l, P = 0.001 and 0.71 +/- 0.21 vs. 0.77 +/- 0.23 mmol/l,
