“…It is one of the leading causes of chronic liver disease worldwide, affecting 3% of the world's population. Diagnosis and treatment of HCV-related autoimmune features has become a clinical challenge in HCV-infected patients, in whom chronic liver disease associated with severe autoimmune features may contribute to a very poor prognosis [12,13].…”

“…HCV-infected patient's diagnosis and treatment has become a clinical challenge due to association of severe autoimmune features. The HCV infection history in terms of chronic toxicity and disease progression seems to be largely determined by the host immune response to virus-infected hepatocytes [5][6][7].…”

Aim: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) exerts an intense impact on host lipid metabolism. It has been shown that the synthesis of cholesterol and fatty acids (FA) is directly affected in HCV patients but serum FA profile of acute HCV patients have not been directly quantified in humans. Methodology: In present study the serum lipid and FA's profile (free and total) of acute hepatitis C patients (n=50) is evaluated in comparison to healthy controls (n=50). The acute HCV patient ' s were diagnosed by center of diseases control (CDC) criteria. Blood hematology, serum proteins, enzymes, waste metabolites and nutrition status were also assessed by standard methods. Results: The acute HCV patients have significantly lower (P<0.05) lipid profile including triglycerides, cholesterol, HDL and LDL in relation to controls. Results of serum lipid FA's (total and

Aims: This study was design to evaluate the effect of hepatotropic virus’s types on the degree of hyperglycemia and iron overload and the correlation between hyperglycemia and iron overload in patients with hepatitis B and C.Methods: Fifty patients infected with hepatitis B and C virus admitted in Al-Hussein teaching hospital /Thi- Qar governorate, along with fifty healthy individual as a control group for comparison purposes. The study period was from April 2011 to July 2012.Results: Of these fifty patients 47 were male (94%) and 3 were female (6%), out of which 39 (78 %) had viral hepatitis B infection and 11 (22 %) had viral hepatitis C infection. The levels of blood glucose (209.52 ± 55.11 mg/dL) and iron (386. 65 ± 95.62 μg/dL) were significantly elevated in hepatitis patients as compare with the control group (73.22 ± 8.30 mg/dL) and (154.15 ± 11.18 μg/dL) respectively. The concentration of blood glucose was 210.39 ± 52.37 mg/dL and 195.84 ± 64.77 mg/dL in hepatitis B and C respectively, there is no significant different in blood glucose between HBV and HCV patients. The concentration of iron was390.88 ± 114.82 μg/dL and 385.27 ± 89.87 μg/dL in hepatitis B and C respectively, there is no significant different in blood iron between HBV and HCV patients. There is a positive correlation between blood glucose and iron in hepatitis patients. Conclusion: The fifty hepatitis patients associated with severe hyperglycemia and iron overload and there is no effect of hepatotropic virus.
