Core Tip We present novel data on the influence of peginterferon alfa-2a/ribavirin (PegIFNα-2a/RBV) on thyroid function in Chinese genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patients over a 48-wk treatment period. The results demonstrate that the prevalence of thyroid dysfunction (TD) was 18.0%. Lower pretreatment serum CXCL10 levels were associated with PegIFNα-2a/RBV induced TD in genotype 1 HCV-infected patients, and female patients exhibited an increased risk for developing TD compared with male patients. Baseline TPOAb positivity may also be a risk factor for TD development. However, most (84%) of the TD cases were reversible. To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the association of CXCL10 levels with PegIFNα-2a/RBV induced TD in genotype 1 HCV-infected patients in China.
