Material and Methods: Ninety patients with chronic hepatitis B viral infection and thirty apparently healthy subjects were enrolled in this study. Blood samples of patients were tested to determine aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), serum alkaline phosphatase (AP), total serum bilirubin (TSB) and fasting blood sugar (FBS).
