[Serum lipid spectrum in HBsAg carrying patients with alcoholism]
Aim:
To reveal the effect of HBsAg on the serum lipid spectrum in alcoholics.
Materials And Methods:
The serum lipid spectrum was studied in 30 alcoholics who were HBsAg carries, 50 alcoholics without HBsAg and 40 healthy individuals.
Results:
Unlike alcoholic patients without HBsAg, those who were HBsAg carriers had higher relative content of phospholipids, lysophosphatidylserine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and lower levels of cholesterol ester, lysophosphatidylcholine, lysophosphatidylethanolamine, sphyngomyeline.
Conclusion:
HBsAg exerts an additional unfavorable effect on the serum lipid spectrum in patients with alcoholism.
