Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The treatment of the chronic hepatitis C (HCV) with α-interferon is associated with thyroid dysfunction (TD). The aim of this study was to evaluate thyroid function outcome among patients with chronic HCV under treatment with conventional interferon (IFN) or peguilated interferon (PEG-IFN) in association with ribavirin. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We studied 293 patients with chronic HCV, submitted to drug...
