Abstract

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a severe clinical concern in China. Of note, the progression of HBV infection varies between different populations. To identify the factors that influence the disease progression and prognosis, a total of 478 chronic HBV‑infected patients were enrolled, and liver function parameters, HBV DNA levels and hepatic fibrosis indices were analyzed. First, the results demonstrated a significant difference in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) expression between male and female patients (χ2=4.061, P=0.044). Furthermore, when comparing either HBeAg‑negative or ‑positive male and female patients, males exhibited a greater variation in HBV DNA levels. Although significant differences between male and female patients in certain abnormal ratios of liver function parameters were identified, a trend in the differences was observed in the HBeAg‑negative and ‑positive groups. When considering age, the results of the present study confirmed that HBV DNA levels decreased with advanced age, and the values of the majority of biomarkers exhibited an evident decreasing trend with increasing age. In addition, it was demonstrated that all HBeAg seropositive patients had higher levels of hepatic fibrosis indexes and higher abnormal ratios of hepatic fibrosis values in their serum when compared with those of HBeAg seronegative patients, particularly with regard to serum IV collagen. The present results revealed that HBV DNA replication was closely associated with liver function; however, it was notable that in HBeAg‑negative patients, the association between HBV DNA levels and liver function was particularly significant among subjects aged <61. Furthermore, this result was not observed in HBeAg‑positive patients. In conclusion, the present study indicated the importance of host factors (including sex and age) and viral factors (including HBeAg expression pattern and HBV DNA levels) in the progression of chronic HBV infection, and its influence regarding prognosis and treatment. The present results provide a foundation for clinical management strategies for chronic HBV infection, particularly in individual schemes.
