    Evaluation of the Hepatocellular Carcinoma Predictive Scores PAGE-B and mPAGE-B among Brazilian Patients with Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection
    (2022) SILVA, Ana Caroline Ferreira da; CUNHA-SILVA, Marlone; SEVA-PEREIRA, Tiago; MAZO, Daniel F.
    Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is intrinsically oncogenic and related to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Predictive scores of HCC have been developed but have been poorly studied in admixed populations. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the performance of PAGE-B and mPAGE-B scores for HCC prediction in HBV Brazilian patients and factors related to HCC occurrence. This is a retrospective study that evaluated patients followed at a tertiary university center. A total of 224 patients were included, with a median follow-up period of 9 years. The mean age at HBV diagnosis was 38.71 +/- 14.19 years, predominantly males (66.1%). The cumulative incidence of HCC at 3, 5, and 7 years was 0.993%, 2.70%, and 5.25%, respectively, being related in the univariate logistic regression analysis to male sex (p = 0.0461), older age (p = 0.0001), cirrhosis at HBV diagnosis (p < 0.0001), and higher values of PAGE-B and mPAGE-B scores (p = 0.0002 and p < 0.0001, respectively). Older age, male sex, and cirrhosis at HBV diagnosis were independently associated with HCC occurrence. The AUROCs of PAGE-B and mPAGE-B were 0.7906 and 0.7904, respectively, with no differences between them (p = 0.9767). In conclusion, both PAGE-B and mPAGE-B showed a correct prediction of HCC above 70% in this cohort.

    HAV and HBV seroprevalence in 1,000 patients with chronic HCV infection in a Tertiary Care Center in Sao Paulo, Brazil
    (2016) SILVA, Edvaldo F. da; MAZO, Daniel F.; OLIVEIRA, Claudia P.; MEDEIROS, Roseane P.; CARRILHO, Flair J.; PESSOA, Mario G.
    Background. Patients with chronic HCV infection and superinfection by hepatitis A virus (HAV) or hepatitis B virus (HBV) have higher morbidity and mortality when compared with those without HCV infection. Therefore, HAV and HBV active immunization has become mandatory in this population and hence their serological markers must be determined. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of serological markers of HAV and HBV infection in patients with chronic HCV. Material and methods: One thousand chronic HCV patients at the University of Sao Paulo School of Medicine were evaluated for the prevalence of serological markers of HAV and HBV infection. Results: Anti-HAV IgG was positive in 92.3% of patients. When stratified by age, anti-HAV IgG was found in 61% of patients between 20-29 years, 70% on patients between 30-39 years, 85% on patients between 40-49 years, 94% on patients between 50-59 years, and in 99% on patients over 60 years of age. Anti-HBc IgG was positive in 244 patients (24%). Stratified by age, in 4.3% of patients between 20-29 years, 17% 30-39 years, 21% 40-49 years, 24% 50-59 years, and in 28% of patients over 60 years. Of the 244 anti-HBc IgG positive patients, 0.8% were HBsAg positive, 8.5% were anti-HBc IgG isolated and 16% were also anti-HBs positive. Conclusions: In conclusion, the prevalence of anti-HAV IgG was similar to the general Brazilian population. However, anti-HBc IgG was higher in our patients, when compared to general population of Western countries, emphasizing the importance of immunization programs for this population.

    Impaired anti-HBV vaccine response in non-cirrhotic chronic HCV is not overcome by double dose regimen: randomized control trial
    (2023) MEDEIROS, Roseane P.; TERRAULT, Norah A.; MAZO, Daniel F.; OLIVEIRA, Claudia P.; DODGE, Jennifer; ZITELLI, Patricia M.; LOPES, Marta H.; CARRILHO, Flair J.; PESSOA, Mario G.
    Introduction and Objectives: Some studies suggest chronic HCV infection diminishes responses to the antiHBV vaccine. We evaluated the efficacy of double versus standard dose HBV vaccination among HCV patients without cirrhosis.Patients and Methods: 141 adults with untreated chronic HCV were randomized to HBV vaccination with double dose (40 mu g) or standard dose (20 mu g) at 0,1 and 6 months; 70 healthy HCV-negative patients given standard dose served as controls. Vaccine response was defined by anti-HBs >= 10 mIU/mL.Results: 128 patients (60 double, 68 standard doses) completed the study. Patients were of median age 52 years, 61% female, 60% fibrosis <2 of 4, and 76% genotype 1 with median 6-log 10 IU/mL HCV RNA. Overall seroprotection rate was 76.7% (95% CI: 65-87) in the 40 mu g versus 73.5% (95% CI: 63-84) in the 20 mu g dose HCV-positive groups (p =0.68) and 91.2% (95%CI:84-99) in HCV-negative controls (p =0.011 and 0.003, respectively). In multivariate logistic regression, vaccine dose (double vs. standard dose) was not associated with vaccine response (OR=0.63, p =0.33). Of 32 HCV-infected patients who were non-responders to 3- doses, 25 received the fourth dose of vaccine. The fourth dose seroconversion rate for the 40 mu g and 20 mu g groups were 45.5% and 21.4%, respectively.Conclusions: In HCV-infected patients without cirrhosis, impaired responses to HBV vaccination cannot be overcome by the use of double dose HBV vaccination, but adding a fourth dose of vaccine for non-responders may be an effective strategy. Other adjuvant measures are needed to enhance seroconversion rates in these patients. Trial register: U 1111-1264-2343 (www.ensaiosclinicos.gov.br)(c) 2022 Fundacion Clinica Medica Sur, A.C.

    Direct access endoscopy in a Brazilian public healthcare facility: comparable results with specialist referred endoscopy
    (2020) OLIVEIRA, Fernando Augusto Borges de; MAZO, Daniel F.
    Background:Direct access endoscopy (DAE) is the procedure performed without the pre-evaluation of the patient by a specialist. It is widely available in many medical services around the world, but there is lack of data about this strategy in the setting of the public health system in Brazil. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare the main endoscopic findings of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy requested through DAE and by specialists. Methods:Longitudinal, retrospective single center study in patients who underwent upper digestive endoscopy in a public healthcare facility at the southern region of the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil, from August 2011 to December 2018. Age, gender, modality of endoscopy request (DAE or endoscopy requested by specialists), and endoscopic findings were analyzed. Results:A total of 2810 patients were included. Most of them were female 65.23% (1833), mean age was 47.36 years, and 50.71% of the exams (1425) were DAE. Only 4.62% of the exams had normal reports. The most frequent endoscopic findings were gastritis (91.99%), bulboduodenitis (43.59%) and reflux esophagitis (14.76%). Patients who underwent endoscopy requested by specialists were older (50.25 +/- 16.57 vs. 44.55 +/- 16.31 years,p < .0001) and more frequently men (36.61 vs. 32.98%,p = .0437) in comparison to DAE. However, endoscopic findings were similar in both groups. Conclusion:This study shows that direct access upper endoscopy had comparable results to specialist requested endoscopy in a public healthcare facility in the southern region of the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil.

    Hepatitis E virus infection increases the risk of diabetes and severity of liver disease in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection
    (2021) ZITELLI, Patricia Momoyo Yoshimura; GOMES-GOUVEA, Michele; MAZO, Daniel F.; SINGER, Julio da Motta; OLIVEIRA, Claudia P. M. S.; FARIAS, Alberto Queiroz; PINHO, Joao Renato; TANIGAWA, Ryan Yukimatsu; ALVES, Venancio Avancini Ferreira; CARRILHO, Flair Jose; PESSOA, Mario Guimaraes
    OBJECTIVES: Co-infection with hepatitis A or B viruses may aggravate liver injury in patients infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). However, few studies have assessed co-infection with hepatitis E virus (HEV) and HCV. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the prevalence and impact of HEV infection among Brazilian patients with chronic HCV infection. METHODS: This observational study included adult patients with chronic HCV infection who were naive to antiviral therapy from January 2013 to March 2016. A total of 181 patients were enrolled, and HEV serology and PCR were performed for all patients. RESULTS: Seropositivity for anti-HEV IgG was detected in 22 (12.0%) patients and anti-HEV immunoglobulin M in 3 (1.6%). HEV RNA showed inconclusive results in nine (4.9%) patients and was undetectable in the remaining patients. HEV serology positive patients had more severe liver disease, characterized by liver fibrosis >= 3 versus <= 2 (p<0.001), Aspartate Aminotransferase-to-Platelet Ratio Index of >= 1.45 (p=0.003), and Fibrosis-4 score of >= 3.25 (p=0.001). Additionally, the odds of HEV-positive patients developing diabetes mellitus were 3.65 (95% CI 1.40-9.52) times the corresponding odds of HEV-negative patients. A case-control-based histological analysis (n=11 HEV-HCV-positive patients and n=22 HCV-positive patients) showed no significant differences between the groups. CONCLUSIONS: This prevalence is higher than that reported in previous studies of the general population in Brazil. Thus, HEV infection may influence the severity of liver disease and may represent an additional risk of developing diabetes mellitus in patients with HCV infection.

    Current aspects of renal dysfunction after liver transplantation
    (2022) PACHECO, Mariana P.; CARNEIRO-D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto; MAZO, Daniel F.
    The development of chronic kidney disease (CKD) after liver transplantation (LT) exerts a severe effect on the survival of patients. The widespread adoption of the model for end-stage liver disease score strongly impacted CKD incidence after the procedure, as several patients are transplanted with previously deteriorated renal function. Due to its multifactorial nature, encompassing pre-transplantation conditions, perioperative events, and nephrotoxic immunosuppressor therapies, the accurate identification of patients under risk of renal disease, and the implementation of preventive approaches, are extremely important. Methods for the evaluation of renal function in this setting range from formulas that estimate the glomerular filtration rate, to non-invasive markers, although no option has yet proved efficient in early detection of kidney injury. Considering the nephrotoxicity of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) as a factor of utmost importance after LT, early nephroprotective strategies are highly recommended. They are based mainly on delaying the application of CNI during the immediate postoperative-period, reducing their dosage, and associating them with other less nephrotoxic drugs, such as mycophenolate mofetil and everolimus. This review provides a critical assessment of the causes of renal dysfunction after LT, the methods of its evaluation, and the interventions aimed at preserving renal function early and belatedly after LT.

    Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Long-Term Type 2 Diabetes: Role of rs738409 PNPLA3 and rs499765 FGF21 Polymorphisms and Serum Biomarkers
    (2022) MANA, Mauy Frujuello; PARISI, Maria Candida R.; CORREA-GIANNELLA, Maria Lucia; NETO, Arnaldo Moura; YAMANAKA, Ademar; CUNHA-SILVA, Marlone; CAVALEIRO, Ana Mercedes; SANTOS, Cristina Rodrigues dos; PAVAN, Celia Regina; SEVA-PEREIRA, Tiago; DERTKIGIL, Sergio S. J.; MAZO, Daniel F.
    Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) signaling and genetic factors are involved in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) pathogenesis. However, these factors have rarely been studied in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) patients from admixed populations such as in those of Brazil. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate rs738409 patanin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein (PNPLA3) and rs499765 FGF21 polymorphisms in T2D, and their association with NAFLD, liver fibrosis, and serum biomarkers (FGF21 and cytokeratin 18 levels). A total of 158 patients were included, and the frequency of NAFLD was 88.6%, which was independently associated with elevated body mass index. Significant liver fibrosis (>= F2) was detected by transient elastography (TE) in 26.8% of NAFLD patients, and was independently associated with obesity, low density lipoprotein, and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT). PNPLA3 GG genotype and GGT were independently associated with cirrhosis. PNPLA3 GG genotype patients had higher GGT and AST levels; PNPLA3 GG carriers had higher TE values than CG patients, and FGF21 CG genotype patients showed lower gamma-GT values than CC patients. No differences were found in serum values of FGF21 and CK18 in relation to the presence of NAFLD or liver fibrosis. The proportion of NAFLD patients with liver fibrosis was relevant in the present admixed T2D population, and was associated with PNPLA3 polymorphisms.

    The role of PNPLA3 and TM6SF2 polymorphisms on liver fibrosis and metabolic abnormalities in Brazilian patients with chronic hepatitis C
    (2021) OLIVEIRA, Arthur Ivan N.; MALTA, Fernanda M.; ZITELLI, Patricia Momoyo Y.; SALLES, Ana Paula M.; GOMES-GOUVEA, Michele S.; NASTRI, Ana Catharina S.; PINHO, Joao Renato R.; CARRILHO, Flair J.; OLIVEIRA, Claudia P.; MENDES-CORREA, Maria Cassia; PESSOA, Mario G.; MAZO, Daniel F.
    BackgroundDespite the growing body of knowledge about TM6SF2 and PNPLA3 polymorphisms in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, their influence in the spectrum of HCV liver disease is not yet fully defined. Besides that, admixed populations, such as Brazilians, were not included in most of the studies.MethodsThis cross-sectional study enrolled 365 treatment-naive patients with HCV and 134 healthy individuals. TM6SF2 (rs58542926 c.499C>T) and PNPLA3 (rs738409 c.444C>G) polymorphisms were evaluated regarding their association with clinical and laboratory data, histological liver steatosis and fibrosis, and with components of the metabolic syndrome.ResultsIn HCV subjects, the frequencies of TM6SF2 CC and CT+TT were 89% and 11%, while PNPLA3 frequencies of CC and CG+GG were 51.4% and 48.6%. In the univariate logistic regression analysis, the TM6SF2 CT+TT genotype in HCV was associated with significant liver fibrosis (p=0.047; OR 1.953; 95% CI 1.009-3.788). In comparison to the CT+TT genotype, the TM6SF2 CC genotype in HCV was associated with older age (p=0.002), higher frequency of arterial hypertension (p=0.032), obesity (p=0.030), metabolic syndrome (p=0.014) and lower total cholesterol levels (p=0.036). The PNPLA3 GG subjects had lower body mass index than CG/ CC individuals (p=0.047). None of the polymorphisms, or their combinations, was independently associated with hepatic steatosis or fibrosis. On the other hand, older age, lower serum levels of total cholesterol, and higher serum levels of alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase were associated with liver fibrosis in the multivariate logistic regression analysis.ConclusionIn this evaluation of an admixed HCV population, neither TM6SF2 nor PNPLA3 polymorphisms were independently associated with hepatic steatosis or fibrosis. Other factors seem more influential than these specific polymorphisms in isolation. More studies are warranted to clarify the role of the TM6SF2 and PNPLA3 polymorphisms in Brazilians with HCV.
