Our aim was to evaluate the impact of some clinical (obesity, metabolic syndrome), biochemical (HOMA-IR), histological (fibrosis, necroinflammation, steatosis) and viral factors (HCV viraemia) on both EVR and SVR in patients with genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C (CHC) treated with peginterferon plus ribavirin.Patients and methods: We evaluated retrospectively 188 naïve patients with CHC treated with peginterferon plus ribavirin at standard weight-base...
