Abstract:Objective To detect the expression of hepatic function indices and autoantibodies in patients with chronic hepatitis B patients, patients with autoimmune liver disease and patients with chronic hepatitis B combined with autoimmune liver disease, and to evaluate the clinical significance of autoantibodies and hepatic function indexes in the early diagnosis of chronic hepatitis B combined with autoimmune liver disease.Methods A total of 109 healthy controls (HC), 72 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB), 74 patients with autoimmune liver disease (AILD), and 24 patients with chronic hepatitis B combined with autoimmune liver disease (CHB+AILD) in the Fifth People’s Hospital of Suzhou from 2013 to 2021 were enrolled in this study. Basic information and the value of admission hepatic function indexes and autoantibodies were collected for all enrolled samples, while no autoantibody test was performed for healthy volunteers. All data were processed using GraphPad Prism and SPSS software.Results There were no significant differences in age and gender among the four groups. The detection rates of anti-mitochondrial antibody M2 (AMA-M2) and anti-soluble acidic phosphorylated nuclear protein antibody (anti-SP100 antibodies) in CHB+AILD group [29.2%(7/24), 17.4%(4/23)] were significantly higher than those in CHB group [5.1%(3/59), 0(0/59)], suggesting that the detection of these two autoantibodies is helpful to the differential diagnosis of CHB and CHB+AILD. In addition, eight hepatic function indexes displayed significant differences among the four groups. The levels of total bilirubin and direct bilirubin in CHB+AILD group were significantly higher than those in CHB and AILD groups, while the levels of total protein and albumin were significantly lower than those in CHB and AILD groups. Alkaline phosphatase and glutamyltranspeptidase in AILD group and CHB+AILD group were significantly higher than those in CHB group. The logistic regression analysis showed that total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, albumin, alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase could form a promising prediction model, which was useful for clinicians in the differential diagnosis of CHB and CHB+AILD (area under the curve, AUC=0.902).Conclusion The combination of autoantibody and hepatic function index detection can be helpful for clinicians in the differential diagnosis of CHB, AILD and CHB+AILD, thus contributing to the early and correct diagnosis of CHB+AILD and providing theoretical basis for patients to obtain reasonable treatment and clinical cure earlier.

Thirty nine compounds in the volatile oils of the flowerbuds of Panax quinquefolium L.cultivated in China were isolated and identified with gas chromatography/mass spectre metry. To our great surprise,β-famensene,a sesquiterpene compound of them,alone account for 48.67% of the total volatile oils contents. This experimental result was contrasted with the volatile oils components of the different parts of Panax quinquefolium L.and Panax ginseng,anidentical genus plant,on chemical components and relative quantities.It was discovered that the only one common component is β-famensene in them and it is the highest value in determined relative contents. Above result provides scientific basis for biological synthesis of triterpenoid saponins.
