[Outcome of HCV infection in intravenous drug addicts and influential factors].
A total of 154 intravenous drug addicts with antibody to hepatitis C virus (Anti-HCV) were followed up for 6 and 15 months, respectively. The corresponding negative conversion rates of anti-HCV were 11.0% (17/154) and 33.3% (29/87), respectively. The data were analysed by logistic curve fitting. Results showed that marriage and income status have significant influence on negative conversion rate of anti-HCV.
