| Core Tip |
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is often associated with fatigue. We recruited 300 chronic HCV patients. Fatigue has been evaluated with multidimensional fatigue inventory-20 (validated tool to assess different dimensions of fatigue in this population. Significant/severe fatigue was prevalent in 27.3% of HCV patients. Decompensated liver disease, intermediate/high-risk fibrosis, < 1 year duration of last dose of antiviral treatment, and HCV infection duration were independent risk factors for fatigue. Fatigue is a widespread and complex symptom in cases with chronic HCV, closely linked to liver disease severity, antiviral treatment, and infection duration. |
