RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: The liver biopsy is the gold standard for determining the level of fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B infection (CHBI). Nonetheless, it is possible to predict liver fibrosis through some noninvasive methods such as noninvasive scoring (NIS) of some serum biomarkers obtained from routine blood tests. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of nine NIS for detecting advanced fibrosis in CHBI. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We reviewed the hospital records of CHBI cases with liver biopsy between January 2011 and December 2016 retrospectively. Using Ishak scoring method, we classified fibrosis stage 1-2 as mild and 3-6 as advanced fibrosis. We calculated the NIS by considering the age, platelet count, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyltransferase, platelet, and international normalized ratio values at the time of the biopsy. RESULTS: The mean age of 202 patients was 37.69± 11.33 years. In cases with advanced fibrosis, the age, gammaglutamyltransferase, and international normalized ratio values were higher and platelet count was lower (P < 0.05). Mean platelet volume was not different between the two groups (P = 0.499). The median values of γ-glutamyl peptidase-platelet ratio (GPR), FibroQ, Goteborg University Cirrhosis Index, fibrosis-4 (FIB-4), aspartate aminotransferase-platelet ratio index, age-platelet index, and King scoring were significantly higher in the advanced fibrosis group. The highest area under the curve value was in GPR [AUC = 0.731 (0.639-0.788); P = 0.000] in the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Cirrhosis Discriminant Score and Aspartate aminotransferase-to-alanine aminotransferase ratio tests were not valuable in detecting advanced fibrosis. FIB-4 had the highest (0.678) diagnostic accuracy rate. CONCLUSION: We found that the calculation of NIS before liver biopsy, especially GPR and FIB-4, may be useful for predicting advanced fibrosis in cases with CHBI.

RESUMEN

HIV-1 replication is rapid and highly error-prone. Transmission of a drug-resistant HIV-1 strain is possible and occurs within the HIV-1-infected population. In this study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of transmitted drug resistance mutations (TDRMs) in 1,306 newly diagnosed untreated HIV-1-infected patients from 21 cities across six regions of Turkey between 2010 and 2015. TDRMs were identified according to the criteria provided by the World Health Organization's 2009 list of surveillance drug resistance mutations. The HIV-1 TDRM prevalence was 10.1% (133/1,306) in Turkey. Primary drug resistance mutations (K65R, M184V) and thymidine analogue-associated mutations (TAMs) were evaluated together as nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) mutations. NRTI TDRMs were found in 8.1% (107/1,306) of patients. However, TAMs were divided into three categories and M41L, L210W, and T215Y mutations were found for TAM1 in 97 (7.4%) patients, D67N, K70R, K219E/Q/N/R, T215F, and T215C/D/S mutations were detected for TAM2 in 52 (3.9%) patients, and M41L + K219N and M41L + T215C/D/S mutations were detected for the TAM1 + TAM2 profile in 22 (1.7%) patients, respectively. Nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-associated TDRMs were detected in 3.3% (44/1,306) of patients (L100I, K101E/P, K103N/S, V179F, Y188H/L/M, Y181I/C, and G190A/E/S) and TDRMs to protease inhibitors were detected in 2.3% (30/1,306) of patients (M46L, I50V, I54V, Q58E, L76V, V82A/C/L/T, N83D, I84V, and L90M). In conclusion, long-term and large-scale monitoring of regional levels of HIV-1 TDRMs informs treatment guidelines and provides feedback on the success of HIV-1 prevention and treatment efforts.
