Abstract:
Objective:To study the relationship between hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)and the primary liver cancer (PLC).Methods:A 20-year prospective follow-up study was performed continuously in Qidong on a cohort of 515 HBsAg positive male patients aged 20-60 years old.The markers of hepatitis B virus,HBsAg,HBsAb,HBeAg,HBeAb and HBcAb (HBVM 1,2,3,4,5)were detected at the first time of the follow-up.Results:The PLC incidence of the whole cohort was 1340.90/100 000 person years(PY).The middle age of the PLC diagnosis was 43 with an average survival of 15 months.The PLC incidence was significantly higher in 41-50 age group than that of other age groups(P＜0.05).The three major HBVM patterns were 15,135 and 145 in the cohort with percentages of 38.83%(200/515),15.92%(82/515)and 44.08%(227/515)respective1y.The PLC incidences of these three patterns were 1 433.69/100 000 PY,2 284.71/100 000 PY,984.10/100 000 PY respectively,showing a significant difference between 135 and 145(P＜0.01).The percentages of 15,135 and 145 were 39.64%(44/111),23.42%(26/111)and 35.14%(39/111)in PLC patients respectively,showing a significant difference between 15 and 135(P＜0.01).The liver cirrhosis mortality of those three patterns were 195.50/100 000 PY,966.61/100 000 PY and 277.57/100 000 PY respectively,showing the significant differences between 135 and other two patterns(P＜0.01).Conclusion:HBsAg carriers were high risk population of PLC.The regular following-up is helpful on early diagnosis and treatment of PLC in those people,and can prolong the survival time.It was found that 135 had higher PLC risk than other HBVM patterns,suggesting a relationship between HBV duplication and PLC.The anti-virus treatment may delay or remove the occurring of PLC.
