Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatitis B e antigen and the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Hwai I. Yang,Sheng Nan Lu,Yun Fan Liaw,San Lin You,Chien An Sun,Li Yu Wang,Chuhsing Kate Hsiao,Pei-Jer Chen,Ding-Shinn Chen,Chien-Jen Chen +9 more
TL;DR: Positivity for HBeAg is associated with an increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma, and after adjustment for age, sex, the presence or absence of antibodies against hepatitis C virus, cigarette-smoking status, and use or nonuse of alcohol, the relative risk was 9.6%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Associations Between Hepatitis B Virus Genotype and Mutants and the Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Hwai I. Yang,Shiou-Hwei Yeh,Pei-Jer Chen,Pei-Jer Chen,Uchenna H. Iloeje,Chin Lan Jen,Jun Su,Li Yu Wang,Sheng Nan Lu,San Lin You,Ding-Shinn Chen,Yun Fan Liaw,Chien-Jen Chen +12 more
TL;DR: HBV genotype C and specific alleles of BCP and precore were associated with risk of HCC, and these associations were independent of serum HBV DNA level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic factors and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma by chronic hepatitis B/C infection: a follow-up study in Taiwan.
Chi-Ling Chen,Hwai I. Yang,Wei-Shiung Yang,Chun-Jen Liu,Pei-Jer Chen,San Lin You,Li Yu Wang,Chien An Sun,Sheng Nan Lu,Ding–Shin Chen,Chien-Jen Chen,Chien-Jen Chen +11 more
TL;DR: The finding that both obesity and diabetes are predictors of HCC risk, possibly differently depending on HBV and HCV infection status, may shed some light in preventing HCC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carriers of Inactive Hepatitis B Virus Are Still at Risk for Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Liver-Related Death
Jin De Chen,Hwai I. Yang,Uchenna H. Iloeje,San Lin You,Sheng Nan Lu,Li Yu Wang,Jun Su,Chien An Sun,Yun Fan Liaw,Chien-Jen Chen,Chien-Jen Chen +10 more
TL;DR: Older age and alcohol drinking habits were independent predictors of risk for carriers of inactive HBV to develop hepatocellular carcinoma and liver-related death compared with individuals not infected with HBV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction models of long-term Cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma risk in chronic hepatitis B patients: Risk scores integrating host and virus profiles
Mei Hsuan Lee,Hwai I. Yang,Jessica Liu,Richard Batrla-Utermann,Chin Lan Jen,Uchenna H. Iloeje,Sheng Nan Lu,San Lin You,Li Yu Wang,Chien-Jen Chen +9 more
TL;DR: The risk prediction models of cirrhosis and HCC by integrating host and HBV profiles have excellent prediction accuracy and discriminatory ability and may be used for clinical management of chronic hepatitis B patients.
