Table 4.

Odds ratios for infection-associated EHPM according to viral infection status.

Infection-associated EHPM (+) Infection-associated EHPM (−) Odds ratio (95% CI) P value
HCV Ab (+) 27 240 3.15 (1.19–8.37) 0.0194
HCV Ab (−) 5 140
HBs Ag (+) 4 61 11.31 (2.03–63.11) 0.0067
HBs Ag (−) 2 345
No viral infection 4 67 20.30 (2.23–184.46) 0.0036
Any viral infection 1 340

Gastric cancer for the presence or absence of HCV Ab, urinary tract cancer for the presence or absence of HBs Ag, breast cancer for both HCV Ab- and HBs Ag-negative or either HCV Ab- or HBs Ag-positive.

EHPM: Extrahepatic primary malignancy, HBs Ag: Hepatitis B virus surface antigen, HCV Ab: Hepatitis C virus antibody, CI: Confidence interval.
