Modern medical experiments show that the hepatitis B virus into the human body, does not directly cause damage to the liver cells, only in the liver cells to absorb nutrients for survival, and in the liver cell reproduction, reproduction. The copy of "spare parts" such as virus surface antigen (HBsAg), e antigen (HBeAg) release in liver cell membrane, cause the body's immune system to produce immune response to these antigens, the response to injury and necrosis of liver cells. The immune response is determined by the degree of liver damage and clinical symptoms. This war on liver cells caused by the virus, the immune system, so that about 25% of the patients with liver become war battlefield, thus aggravating liver damage.
Liver is the most important metabolic organ in the human body. Hepatitis B patients because of their long-term liver by the virus, liver function damage, resulting in a series of metabolic disorders.
On the liver itself, cirrhosis and liver cancer are the inevitable results of the development of hepatitis B, so it is said that hepatitis - liver cirrhosis - liver cancer, hepatitis B is the death of three steps".
However, the harm of hepatitis B is not limited to the liver itself, it can also cause other diseases. Common are: (1) (2) diabetes mellitus; pancreatitis; biliary tract infection; (3) (4) functional renal failure; (5) biliary nephropathy; glomerulonephritis; (6) (7) renal tubular acidosis (8); hemolytic anemia; aplastic anemia (9); (10) myocarditis and pericarditis (11); nodular arteritis; peptic ulcer; (12) (13) (14) spontaneous peritonitis; metabolic disorder; (15) the changes in thyroid function; (16) hepatic bone disease, etc..
Hepatitis B is not only harmful to the patient's body and even life, but also to the patient's psychological blow is very heavy. Whether patients with hepatitis B virus carriers or, in the life, social, and other aspects of employment, education will be seriously affected, thus change the destiny of life, this example is really be too numerous to enumerate.
Therefore, whether the incidence of hepatitis B virus carriers or, should actively and thorough treatment of hepatitis B, can not let down, also cannot think of hepatitis B virus carry for life without disease.
