  • Vitamin A, Vitamin E or beta-carotene status and hepatitis B-related hepatocellular carcinoma. Abstract Text:

    A case-control study was carried out in 59 patients with newly diagnosed hepatocellular carcinoma and 101 control subjects, who were all male hepatitis B carriers. The odds ratios of hepatocellular carcinoma occurring among hepatitis B carriers in the lowest quartile and those highest quartile of dietary and serum status were 5.3 (1.9 to 15.0) and 86.9 (20.0 to 377.2), respectively. The odds ratios for hepatitis B carriers in the lowest quartile and those in the highest quartile of dietary and serum beta-carotene status were 1.7 (0.7 to 4.1) and 5.0 (1.9 to 13.2). Vitamin E status did not differ in case patients and control subjects. Low education level, heavy consumption of alcohol, and smoking status were also associated with increased odds of hepatocellular carcinoma. Serum retinol, positively associated with dietary retinol, demonstrated an independent effect on hepatocellular carcinoma. This effect may reflect changes in the physiologic condition of the patients at the time of entering the hospital.
