Title

REVERSIBLE AUTONOMIC DYSFUNCTION DURING ANTIVIRAL TREATMENT IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEPATITIS C VIRUS INFECTION

Pages

  114-118

Abstract

 Background: The first clinical sign of chronic HEPATITIS C VIRUS (HCV) infection can be one of the various extrahepatic manifestations. During ANTIVIRAL TREATMENT, symptoms of HCV-associated neuropathies usually improve, but can also worsen and lead to discontinuation of anti-HCV therapy. Recently, we have reported AUTONOMIC DYSFUNCTION in patients with HCV infection. Objectives: In the present prospective study, we analyzed the changes of autonomic function during anti-HCV treatment. Patients and Methods: Cardiovagal autonomic function was assessed in 22 HCV RNA-positive, treatment-naive patients by determining heart rate variability (HRV) and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS), at the beginning of treatment and 12, 24 and 48 weeks of antiviral therapy. Interferon alfa-2 and ribavirin were given according to the guidelines. Results: Both HRV and BRS time and frequency domain indices decreased after 12 weeks of therapy compared to the pre-treatment values; then the mean±SD values increased significantly by week 24 and continued to improve by week 48 of therapy-253.0156.1 ms before therapy vs 111.6±81.9 at week 12, and 183.4±169.6 at week 24 vs 211.6±149.1 ms at week 48 for low-frequency HRV index; p<0.05 for all comparisons). These changes were independent from the presence of cryoglobulins and from virologic response. Conclusions: The first rise followed by reversible AUTONOMIC DYSFUNCTION during antiviral therapy may be caused by the immunomodulatory actions of interferon alfa-2.
