Jiucheng liver cancer patients have a history of hepatitis B, hepatitis B who suffered more than other people suffering from liver cancer risk of up to 10.7 times, hepatitis B virus carrying the risk of people suffering from liver cancer is a healthy 6.37 times the population! Why is hepatitis B the virus is apt to cause liver cancer? recently with “viral hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma in Asia,” as the theme of the 17th annual meeting of Asia-Pacific liver disease, China, South Korea, Japan and Australia, the Asia-Pacific region a number of liver disease prevention and control experts and scholars opened this “mystery.”
Patients: Treatment of non-standardized liver cancer hepatitis B changed
A seven-point knowledge about hepatitis B HBeAg
51-year-old Mr. Zhang Huan Yigan for 12 years, long-term use of certain drugs, he happened resistance, resulting in a rebound condition. Most recently, he because the company’s business continuity travel, entertainment, feeling tired, liver pain, hastened to the hospital for examination, the doctor says with resignation that has been advanced liver cancer, missed the best time of treatment … … It is understood that, like this case is not uncommon, because the treatment was not standardized, combined liver and neglect their own health, many of hepatitis B patients unknowingly “hit”, hepatitis B become liver cancer, died in the tragedy of the young elite frequent.
Experts say that 90% of liver cancer patients have a history of hepatitis B, hepatitis B virus persistent infection is the main reason for liver cancer. These patients have the following roughly the same performance: Laboratory examination of “HBeAg” or “Xiao Sanyang,” liver function was normal; liver cancer before the disease was found hiding, no obvious symptoms, not even any signs of liver discomfort … … this performance to the patient both struck an urgent alarm: hepatitis B patients to the hospital in time if not standard treatment, may be just one step away from liver cancer away!

Hepatitis B need individual therapy, medication, doctors also need to adjust anti-viral therapy.” At the 17th Asia-Pacific Liver Diseases annual meeting, experts said, has been developed out of anti-HBV drugs, has formed a nucleoside (acid) analogues, long-acting interferon in two major categories of drugs to choose from. Recommendation: Medical: Hepatitis B treatment “road map”
Types of drugs increase in the face of the situation, experts believe that patient selection should be cautious, 2007 edition of “Hepatitis B Prevention Guide” is an international art in the fields on the treatment of chronic hepatitis B diagnosis and treatment of regulatory guidance documents, with a high reference value. “Guide” recommends that, for nucleoside naive patients, treatment is started at a preferred anti-virus capability, low rates of drug resistance, and shall ensure compliance of medication, thereby reducing the incidence of drug resistance. Choose from based on the best evidence-based medicine supported by evidence, taking into account also the burden of drug prices and cost factors, differences in the way (such as medical insurance, at their own expense, etc.).
Well-known liver expert, Shanghai Huashan Hospital, Professor Xin-Hua Weng pointed to the need to recognize is that “If you want anti-virus capability, but also to take convenience, drug resistance rate is low, toxic side effects and the price is very cheap, such an ideal drug , and now there is no market. ”
Reminder: Hepatitis B liver incentive to become open to the public
If you are infected with hepatitis B virus, or a doctor declared that you are a hepatitis B patients, we must bear in mind the following 4 points away from the risk factors, in order to stay away from liver cancer invasion: 1. Drinking. The long-term drinking of the hepatitis B surface antigen-positive people can promote the occurrence of liver cirrhosis or liver cancer; 2. To eat rotten oil. Well-worn animal and plant oils are toxic and may cause cancer; 3. To eat moldy food. When they find food, oil, dairy products contaminated with mold is prohibited for human consumption; 4. Unchecked. Hepatitis B patients and their families regularly to the hospital for routine examination, periodic review of serum transaminase, six months to once a year, “two pairs of semi-”, do a fetal-fetoprotein, b super-annual inspections. Otherwise, left unchecked, persistent infection of hepatitis B virus replication, inflammation, fibrosis prompted, will inevitably lead to cirrhosis or liver cancer from happening.
