Study of various physiological changes in the blood of hepatitis B and C in Iraqi patients
The main causes of viral hepatitis are the B and C viruses, which produce severe disease, mortality, and persistent carrier status. This causes global health and economic problems. The study included 110 participants: 60 patients (20-69), 38 males, 22 women, and 50 control group members (20-49). The study found a substantial (P <0.001) decrease in Haemoglobin and Plate lets values in hepatitis Band C patients compared to healthy controls. Plate lets decreases, but not Haemoglobin levels for both sexes and female patients' hepatitis C and B mean levels decrease. In biochemical testing, hepatitis B and C patients had significantly higher Alanine aminotransferase, Aspartate aminotransferase, Alkaline phosphatase, Total bilirubin, C reactive protein, and Alpha pheto protein than control groups (P<0.001). Comparing male and female patient mean values to healthy groups showed an increase. The study compares haematological and biochemical indicators in healthy hepatitis B and C patients.
