Table 2.
Patients who took antiviral treatment, stratified by aetiology and disease condition
| Aetiology | Hepatitis N (%*) |
Cirrhosis N (%*) |
HCC N (%*) |
OLT N (%*) |
Total by aetiology N (%*) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HCV | 42 (12.1) | 3 (2.6) | 1 (1.9) | 16 (2.8) | 62 (11.0) |
| HBV | 111 (50.2) | 21 (50.0) | 10 (83.3) | 37 (100) | 177 (56.7) |
| OTHER causes† | 3 (3.5) | 3 (5.1) | 3 (17.6) | 11 (25.6) | 20 (9.8) |
| Total by disease condition | 156 (23.9) | 27 (12.5) | 14 (17.1) | 64 (49.6) | 259 (24.0) |
*Percentages are calculated using as denominator the number of patients belonging to each subgroup by aetiology within each subgroup by disease condition (see table 1).
†Other causes included alcoholic liver disease, cholestatic disease and autoimmune disease.
HBV, hepatitis B virus; HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma; OLT, orthotopic liver transplantation.
