To evaluate hepatic energy charge, we detected the redox tolerance index (RTI) in 27 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CH) and 34 patients with post-hepatitis B liver cirrhosis (LC). The results demonstrated that RTI was significantly lower in CH and LC than that in the normal controls (P < 0.01). There was no difference between CH and LC. The active LC showed RTI significantly lower than that of the inactive LC (P < 0.05). The results also indicated that there was no correlation between the RTI and routine liver function. Our findings suggest that RTI based on redox theory is of value in predicting hepatic energy charge accurately.
为评估肝脏能量状态，我们检测了27例慢性乙型肝炎（CH）患者和34例乙型肝炎后肝硬化（LC）患者的氧化还原耐受指数（RTI）。结果表明，CH组和LC组的RTI均显著低于正常对照组（P<0.01）。CH组和LC组之间无差异。活动期LC组的RTI显著低于非活动期LC组（P<0.05）。结果还表明，RTI与常规肝功能之间无相关性。我们的研究结果表明，基于氧化还原理论的RTI在准确预测肝脏能量状态方面具有价值。
