Eligibility Criteria
patients with chronic HCV infection with type 2 DM, who are eligible for antiviral therapy.
You may qualify if:
- Chronic HCV infection will be diagnosed based on positive testing for serum HCV RNA and anti-HCV Ab.
- Diagnosis of type 2 DM will depend on fasting level of serum glucose more than 126 mg/dl and/or serum level of HbA1c more than 6.5 % on oral hypoglycemic therapy.
You may not qualify if:
- Chronic hepatitis due to causes other than HCV infection
- Coinfection with HBV infection
- Hepatocellular carcinoma
- Child C stage of liver cirrhosis.
- Patients with type I diabetes mellitus.
- Cardiopulmonary diseases.
- Major illness.
- Patient receiving corticosteroids.
- Patient refused consent.
