Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To assess the clinical significance of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in patients with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). METHODS:Twenty-two patients with CVST confirmed by magnetic resonance venography (MRV) or digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and 743 controls with ischemic stroke confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS:Among all researches, HBV surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive rate was high. Six of the 22 (27.3%) confirmed cases had HBsAg. However, HBsAg-positive rate in patients with ischemic stroke was only 45 of the 743 cases (6.1%), closed to the average prevalence in China (∼ 8.6%), but much lower than the positive rate in CVST patients (27.3 vs 6.1%, P = 0.002). Odd ratio (OR) value between HBsAg-positive CVST patients (27.3%) and HBsAg-positive ischemic stroke patients (6.1%) was 5.78. The OR value between HBsAg-positive CVST patients (27.3%) and average prevalence of HBV infection in China (8.6%) was nearly 3.99. It meant that HBV infection might be a risk factor for CVST. However, there existed no statistically significant difference in HBV surface antibody (HBsAb), HBV e antigen (HBeAg), HBV e antibody (HBeAb), and HBV central antibody (HBcAb)-positive rate. The HBV surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive CVST patients did not show worse liver function. Most of them were inactive HBV carriers. CONCLUSION:Hepatitis B virus infection may be a risk factor for CVST.
