[Multifactorial evaluation of endogenous intoxication in patients with chronic viral hepatitis C].
The integral laboratory indices of endogenous intoxication (EI) (effective albumin concentration (EAC) and albumin binding reserve (ABR)) were studied in 104 patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) in the context of data on the current manifestations of the disease and the pattern of and association between different types of somatic pathology and toxic exposures. The patients with CHC were found to have significant changes in EI indices as compared with the control group wherein the indices were steady-state during conventional pathogenetic therapy. There was no clear correlation between the clinical symptoms of intoxication and EAC and ABR. More considerable changes were ascertained in CHC patients with degenerative diseases, biliary system diseases, and chronic constipation and in those with the signs of negative changes in the body's responsiveness.
