ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the characteristics of hepatitis C viurs (HCV)infection and its genotypes in Yancheng area . Methods A total of 20 185 cases of subjects receiving healthy examination were collected ,and fasting blood levels of serum anti‐HCV were detected .Clinical data of patients with HCV infection were statistically analysed .HCV genotypes and levels of HCV RNA were detected ,and their clinical prognosis was judged by type‐B ultrasonic .Results The total infection rate of HCV was 1 .22% .The infection rate of male was higher than that of female and the infection rate was increased with the elevation of age .The genotype 1b was accounted for 73 .17% .The results of type‐B ultrasonic shown that all patients infected with genotype 6 and 1b/2a HCV only had liver damage .80 .77% of patients infected with genotype 2a HCV had liver damage ,which was higher than that of patients infected with 16 and 3a+3b genotypes .Conclusion Most of HCV infected patients are male ,and the infection rate might be increased with the elevation of age .The prognosis is in various different genotypes of HCV ,which indicates that the prognosis could be evaluated by genotyping .
