Abstract:
30 patients with the active chronic hepatitis B and 30 patients with the ascitic cirrhosis due to hepatitis B from the Army Central Hospital 108 and the National Institute of Clinical Medicine and tropical diseases participated to a study. The results have shown that the coagulation factors II, V, VII, and X in patients with the active chronic hepatitis B were moderately reduced during the exacerbation of the disease and gradually recovered to a normal level or almost normal level during the stable disease. While these factors in the patients with ascitic cirrhosis were severely, unreversible reduced through the progress of disease. During the exacerbation of the diseases. The extend of reduction of the above coagulation factors in patients of the ascitic cirrhosis was more severe than these in patients with the active chronic hepatitis B.
