Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Obesity is associated with impaired treatment responses in chronic hepatitis C. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the insulin resistance frequently seen in obese subjects and sustained virological response to anti-viral therapy (SVR) in patients with genotype 2 or 3 infection. METHODS: Eighty-two patients were studied; 59 received interferon/ribavirin while 23...
