Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate liver function in chronic hepatitis C patients who also have chronic pancreatitis, particularly focusing on the role of pancreatic enzyme activity.
- 72 patients were analyzed: 52 with both CHC and pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (EI), and 20 with CHC but without EI; various liver and pancreatic function tests were performed.
- The results showed that patients with both CHC and CP with EI had significantly worse liver conditions, including higher levels of liver damage and fibrosis, alongside lower albumin levels compared to those without pancreatic insufficiency.
The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of Hp on clinical and biochemical course of chronic hepatitis C (CHC). The study included 150 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of chronic hepatitis C, who for various reasons did not receive specific antiviral therapy. Helicobacter pylori (Нр) was determined using a quick urease test (CLO-test) and a coprological test (CITO TEST, manufactured by Pharmasco LLC), interleukin (IL) levels: IL-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and neopterin by ELISA.
