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.
