Abstract:
Objective To observe the change of the sera lipid profiles in patients with chronic hepatitis B Virus (HBV)infec-tion.Methods Sera from 254 patients suffered from liver disease were collected and divided into four groups according to the severity of the disease (71 of Cirrhosis;80,46,51 of Light,Moderate and Highly severity of the chronic HBV infection, respectively).Sera of 59 healthy patients were collected as control.The concentrations of their sera lipids (CHOL and TG), lipoprotein (HDL and LDL)and apolipoproteins (ApoA-I and ApoB)were determined and compared.Results Compared to the control group,the levels of the CHOL,TG,HDL,LDL,ApoA-I and ApoB were varied in degree in the chronic HBV in-fection group and the cirrhosis group.For the highly severity group and the cirrhosis group,statistics analysis showed de-creased and significantly different lipid and apolipoprotein results when compared to the control group.For the light and moderate severity group,when compared to the control group,levels of TG,HDL and ApoA-I were decreased with remarka-ble difference.The ApoB/ApoA-I ratio of the chronic HBV infection (Highly severity group)was 2.10±1.44,which was significantly higher than that of any other group (P<0.05).Conclusion The ApoB/ApoA-I ratio can be a potential marker for the evaluation of the severity of the chronic HBV infection.
