Abstract:
The clinical and epidemiological studies on TT virus (TTV) were achieved in 44 Japanese HD patients. TTV-DNA was detected in 29.5% of HD patients, and the percentage was higher than that reported in normal populations. HBsAg, anti-HBc, anti-HCV and HGV-RNA were positive in 6.8%, 36.4%, 22.7% and 2.3%, respectively. One of three HD patients with TTV had liver disorders. In comparison between TTV positive and negative groups, there were significant differences of anti-HBc and total cholesterol value.
