Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Iron deposits in the liver and abnormalities in serum iron biochemistry are frequently observed in patients with chronic liver diseases, but data for patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection are scarce. Moreover, the role of HFE mutations in iron deposits in this condition remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of serum iron biochemical...
