Objective To study the clinical characteristics and HBeAg status in HBV liver cirrhosis patients with different HBV DNA levels, Method Three hundred and thirty-seven patients with liver cirrhosis caused by chronic HBV infection were investigated. HBV DNA levels were detected by PCR, and HBV markers were detected by MEIA. The ratio of patients with HBeAg positive or negative in groups with different HBV DNA levels was compared, and the clinical characteristics in patients with different HBV DNA levels and HBeAg status were evaluated. Results The positive ratio of HBV DNA and HBeAg were 80.4% (271/337) and 31.5% (106/337). The negative ratio of HBeAg was 68.5% (231/337). The proportion of patients with Child-Pugh grade A, B or C and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in different groups of HBV DNA levels and in different HBeAg status showed no significant difference, but the ratio of HCC in patients with HBV DNA 3-4 lg copies/ml was higher than that in patients with HBV DNA <3 lg copies/ml (P=0.014) and ≥7 lg eopies/ml (P =0.009). No significant difference of HBV DNA levels was found in different age groups, but the negative ratio of HBeAg increased with the increasing of the age. Conclusions More than 80% of patients with liver cirrhosis caused by chronic HBV infection axe HBV DNA positive, and 2/3 of them are HBeAg negative. Suppressing HBV replication may improve the prognosis of HBV related cirrhosis and HCC.

Aim To assess the effect of HMG-CoA inhibitors simvastatin on collagen remodeling in rats after myocardial infarction. Methods Myocardial infarction models were induced by ligation of anterior descending coronary artery. 24 hours later the survivals were randomly divided into 3 groups: (1) MI group; (2) 20 mg Sim group(20 mg? kg-1? d-1); (3) 40 mg Sim group(40 mg? kg-1? d-1). Rats with sham ligation formed into Sham group. After 8 weeks, the ratios of LV and RV weight to body weight (RVWI, LVWI) were examined and the collagen content was detected. The type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ collagen volume fraction (CVF) and Ⅰ/Ⅲ ratio in infarcted and non-infarcted zones were examined with PSR dyeing; also the mRNA expressions of type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ collagen in non-infarcted zone (NIZ) were detected with RT-PCR.Results Comparing with Sham group,the RVWI and LVWI in MI group increased significantly. The type Ⅰ CVF and type Ⅲ CVF in NIZ and the Ⅰ/Ⅲ ratio were increased in MI group. The mRNA expressions of type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ collagen in NIZ in MI group were higher than those in Sham group. Comparing with MI group, the RVWI and LVWI in both Sim groups were decreased significantly. The type Ⅰ CVF and type Ⅲ CVF in NIZ and the Ⅰ/Ⅲ ratio were depressed in both Sim groups, and the mRNA expressions of collagens were also lower than those in MI group, but higher than those in Sham group. Conculusion Simvastatin could attenuate the development of myocardial interstitial fibrosis in non-infarction zone to improve myocardial interstitial remodeling in rats after MI.
