The effects of chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) on the lives of 40 British patients were studied by means of a questionnaire. The aspects considered were: social, sexual, and family life, physical and psychological health, and work. Thirty six patients considered their lives to have been affected, nine mildly, 14 moderately, and 13 severely. The aspects of life most affected were: sexual (13), psychological (11), physical (5), work (3), social (2), and family (2). Most of the problems encountered were related to infectivity. The availability of vaccines against HBV and of successful antiviral treatment have solved some of the problems, but it remains important for the medical profession to be aware of the multifaceted impact of the carriage of HBV.
通过问卷调查研究了慢性乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)感染对40名英国患者生活的影响。所考虑的方面包括:社会、性和家庭生活、身心健康以及工作。36名患者认为他们的生活受到了影响,其中9人受到轻度影响,14人受到中度影响,13人受到重度影响。生活中受影响最大的方面依次为:性(13)、心理(11)、身体(5)、工作(3)、社会(2)和家庭(2)。遇到的大多数问题都与传染性有关。抗HBV疫苗的可获得性和成功的抗病毒治疗解决了一些问题,但医疗行业意识到HBV携带的多方面影响仍然很重要。
