One contributing factor to this low treatment rate is the complexity and restrictive nature of clinical practice guidelines. Since 1998, we have adopted a \"treat-all\" approach to patients with CHB. A retrospective study was conducted involving patients with CHB who received treatment from 1998 to 2020 at 2 institutions in Egypt. These patients underwent evaluation through various clinical and laboratory methods, which included testing for liver enzymes and HBV DNA. The study analyzed 1825 patients with HBV, finding that 27.4% had viremia levels under 2000 IU/mL. Most (88%) were HBeAg-negative, with 12% positive. A large portion (77.6%) had normal alanine aminotransferase levels, though 5.6% exceeded twice the upper limit of normal. About 14.2% were diagnosed with liver cirrhosis, and 9.6% with F3 stage fibrosis at enrollment. Notably, 2% (25 cases) lost HBsAg over a median of 52 months. Patients with HBV DNA <2000 IU/mL had a higher HBsAg loss rate (4.2%) compared to those with levels >2000 IU/mL (1.3%). During follow-up, 9.5% (117 patients) experienced decompensation, with a higher incidence in those with HBV DNA <2000 IU/mL (16.8%) than those >2000 IU/mL (7.1%). HCC developed in 5.2% of patients with lower HBV DNA and 2.6% with higher levels, showing significant differences. Liver-related deaths occurred in 2.8% of the cohort, with a slightly higher rate in those with lower initial HBV DNA levels (3.5% vs. 2.5%). The findings suggest a paradigm shift in CHB management toward early and broader eligibility for antiviral therapy. This could improve patient outcomes and address the global treatment gap in CHB management, especially in regions with high CHB prevalence.</p>","PeriodicalId":10377,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Liver Disease","volume":"23 1","pages":"e0183"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11177830/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141330516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
